Model Answer
(C) Process of rapid integration between countries
Explanation
The textbook (Chapter 4, "What is Globalisation?") explicitly defines: "Globalisation is this process of rapid integration or interconnection between countries." Option C matches this definition word-for-word. The other options describe effects or tools of globalisation, not its meaning.
