Never -- I'd say that even if there wasn't that option, and let me clarify, I come from an emerging economy.

not sure. the notes i made just say within 40 years. so i'll take a guess at C. agree with pfcfaataf that on a per capita basis, emerging economies aren't expected to catch up anytime soon.

This is so 2039
... or not

The text was written in 2003. So 40 years from 'now' is 2003+40 = 2043.

Highly doubt they would ask about specific years for BRICs. More likely they would ask something like which factors contribute most to the growth of the BRICs countries.
