Large companies need a way to reach the savings of the public at large. The same problem on a smaller scale, faces practically every company to develop new products and create new jobs.2. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects. So companies turn to the public, inviting people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in future profits. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through The Stock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation the savings of individuals and institutions, both at home and overseas.3. When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is seeking to invest his money.4. Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local authorities. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railways, this country could not function. All these require continuous spending on new equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone. The Government, local authorities, andnationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to finance major capital spending, and they, too, come to The Stock Exchange.5. There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose job or whose standard of living does not depend on the ability of his/her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way or another, this new money must come from the savings of the country. The Stock Exchange exists to provide a channel through which these savings can reach those who need finance.23.

Geochemists just want an intuitive sense of whats going on with the elements，“ saysAlbert Galy from the University of Cambridge _(3)_ _(4)_ He explains that sulphur(硫磺)， for example， shows up in three differentspots _one for sulphide(硫化物)， which is found in minerals， one for sulphite(亚硫酸盐)， and one for sulphate， which is found in sea salt， for instance. He has also included symbols to show which ions are nutrients， and which are common in soil or water._ (5)_ A There have been many attempts to redesign the periodic table since Dmitri Mendeleevit up in 1871. B Railsback has still ordered the elements ac， cording to the number of protons they have. C “I imagine this would be good for undergraduates . D Railsback has listed some elements more than once. E And the size of elements symbol reflects how much of it is found in the Earths crust.

But 53 the administration of President Ford he offered one on national television. He used the phrase, to bite the bullet . The words were not new, but they spread 54 the country. Mr. Ford called 55 Americans to bite the bullet and make personal sacrifices. This, he said, would help to withdraw inflation. He urged them to eat less, use less gasoline, to spend less and save more. He appealed 56 them to do whatever was 57 to fight inflation, no matter how unpleasant.
