Short Answer Questions Directions Read the following passage s carefully and give brief answers to the questions 5 points Security and commodity exchanges 证券和商品交易所 are trading places where people meet who wish to buy or sell The exchanges themselves do no trading they merely provide a place where buyers and sellers can meet and conduct their business Wall Street although the best known is not the
