In order to 6 this deficit, the Treasure Department can simply 7 the money supply by issuing more paper money to 8 the debts of government. This increase in the money supply will cause the value of the dollar to 9 decrease. The second cause of inflation occurs when the money supply increase faster than the supply of goods. 10 people have more money, they will run out to buy popular goods 11 televisions and computers, for example, and a shortage will result. Industry will then produce more, at higher prices, to 12 demand. 13 , if people think that the prices of popular goods are going up, they will buy and even borrow money at high 14 rates to pay for them. Finally, if labor unions demand that workers wages 15 to 16 the high cost of living, industry will meet this demand and add other costs of production on to the 17 . 18 summary, all of these causes can 19 inflationary problems that can affect the welfare of a nation.

In the last thirty years, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreign companies now have offices in Japan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world. Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder the foreign businessman and make doing business in Japan difficult for foreigners. The American businessman, for example , wants of start talking business immediately . He wants quick decisions. He does not wait. The Japanese, on the other hand , likes to arrive at decisions gradually after giving them a great deal of thought. Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means Yes or No. This is because of cultural difference for a Japanese to say No directly. In English, it is easy to say No to something we do not want to do. But in Japan it is very difficult to say No. To refuse an invitation or a request with No, or a similar phrase, is felt to be impolite. It is thought to be selfish(自私) and unfriendly. So instead of saying No directly, the Japanese have developed many ways to avoid saying No. These enable them to avoid hurting other peoples feeling. However, this often makes communication with the Japanese difficult for foreigners to understand and follow. (241words)1.Paragraph one tells us that _ .A.

In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome , testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches. In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the work of testing candidates（候选人）for a masters or doctors degree. Generally, however, modern examinations are written. Two types of tests are commonly used in modern schools. The first types sometimes called an objective (客观性) test, it is intended to deal with facts., not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have mot learned the material properly. The student has just one task: he must recognize the correct answer and copy its letter or number on his examination paper. For testing a students memory of facts and details, the objective test has advantages. It can find out a great deal about the students range of knowledge. For testing some kinds of learning, however, such a test is not very satisfactory. A lucky student may guess the correct answer without really knowing the material. (241words)1.
