新编大学英语四级全真模拟试题(三)第5页 It is common for most big companies to find a way to reach the savings of the public. The same problem, though on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little chance of getting the fund needed from friends and people we know, and although banks may agree to provide short-term finance, it is probably impossible for them to provide money on a long-term base. 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 interests. By issuing stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange, they can successfully achieve their purpose. They can put into circulation the savings of single persons and institutions, both at home and abroad. When the investor is in need of his money, and want to get it back from the company, he doesn’t need to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. He just need to sell his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is intending to invest his money. The government or local organizations provided many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us . Our country could not work without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones and railways . All these require continuous spending on new equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than it is raised through taxes alone. The government, local organizations and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to finance major capital spending, and they, too, come to the Stock Exchange. Nearly each man or woman in this country whose standard of living depends on the ability of his or her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way or another his 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. 56, What can be inferred from paragraph one _______. A.Banks are willing to provide long-term fund to large companies. B.Only small companies need money from banks. C.Nearly every company need to turn to the public for finance. D.Small companies can get money from friends or acquaintances 57, When the saver needs his money back, he need to _______. A. Put his shares in the company back on the market. B. Ask the company the money back. C. Look for other people or friends to borrow. D. Transfer the money to more successful company. 58,All the basic services on which we depend are _______. A.unable to provide for the needs of the population B.financed wholly by rates and taxes C.in constant need of financial support D.run by the government or local organizations 59,The underlined word invest probably means _______. A.donate more money with B.provide less money with
C.lend less money with D.make more money with 60.The passage mainly discusses A.How the Stock Exchange works B.How companies get finance C.How man and woman get money from the government D.How companies get huge profit PassageTwo Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.

How man and woman get money from the government D. How companies get huge profit Passage Two Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. Although Americans take pride in their variety and individuality, uniforms are among the few things that they love and respect., whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why uniforms enjoy such popularity in the United States? One of the first argument is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears uniform tends to enjoy more trust than one who wears civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity than to step out of uniform ? Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible . They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes. Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least. Some practical problems can also caused by uniforms. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also dear to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes. 注意:此部分试题请在答题卡 2 上作答。 61.How are people tend to view a man in uniform?
