　不问年老年少,都可以养成好习惯和坏习惯。好习惯受益终身,坏习惯贻害无穷。因此,应当学好祛恶

　Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. When a person does a certain thing again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, then a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits. Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them.

　There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on.

　Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on. These are all easily formed habits. Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided(避免).

　We should keep away from(远离) all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others.

3. The Stock Exchange makes it possible for the Government, local organizations and nationalized industries _______ .

2. All the basic services on which we depend are _______ .

　A. unable to provide for the needs 　B. financed wholly by rates and taxes

　C. in constant need of financial support 　D. run by the Government or our local organizations

　(A)

　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 trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little hope of raising the money needed from friends and people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money 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 interests.This they do by issuing stocks (股票) and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation (流通) the savings of single persons and institutions, both at home and abroad.

　When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom be originally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is seeking to invest his money.

　Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local organizations. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railways, this country could not work. 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 organizations , and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to finance major capital spending, and they, too, come to the Stock Exchange.

　There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose standard of living does not depend on the ability of his or 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.

1. The money which enables these companies to go ahead with their projects is _______ .

　A. exchanged for part ownership in the Stock Exchange

　B. raised by the selling of shares in the companies

　C. repaid to its original owners as soon as possible

　D. invested in different companies on the Stock Exchange
