题目:
The American economic system is organized around a basically private-
enterprise, market-oriented economy in which consumers largely determine
what shall be produced by spending their money in the marketplace for those
goods and services that they want most. Private businessmen, striving to make
profits, produce these goods and services in competition with other
businessmen; and the profit motive, operating under competitive pressures,
largely determines how these goods and services are produced. Thus, in the
American economic system it is the demand of individual consumers, coupled
with the desire of businessmen to maximize profits and the desire of individuals
to maximize their incomes, that together determine what shall be produced and
how resources are used to produce it.
An important factor in a market-oriented economy is the mechanism by
which consumer demands can be expressed and responded to by producers. In
the American economy, this mechanism is provided by a price system, a
process in which prices rise and fall in response to relative demands of
consumers and supplies offered by seller-producers. If the product is in short
supply relative to the demand, the price will be bid up and some consumers will
be eliminated from the market. If, on the other hand, producing more of a
commodity results in reducing its cost, this will tend to increase the supply
offered by seller-producers, which in turn will lower the price and permit more
consumers to buy the product. Thus, price is the regulating mechanism in the
American economic system.
The important factor in a private-enterprise economy is that individuals are
allowed to own productive resources (private property), and they are permitted
to hire labor, gain control over natural resources, and produce goods and
services for sale at a profit. In the American economy, the concept of private:
property embraces not only the ownership of productive resources but also
certain rights, including the right to determine the price of a product or to make
a free contract with another private individual.
Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE about the
American economic system?
答案:
A、 It’s a private-enterprise economy.
B、 It’s a market-oriented economy.
C、 Consumers play a big role in determining goods and
services that they want.
D、It ensures that the private business can always make
profits.

题目:
Withdrawing money from the bank used to be so convenient. You could visit a
money machine almost anywhere. Without paying a cent, you could get enough
cash to buy a television or put a large down payment on some basketball shoes.
But a couple of years ago some banks started charging a fee. If you didn’t
have an account with them, you had to pay at least a dollar to withdraw money
at their ATM (Automatic Teller Machine).
Other banks followed suit and now the majority charge a fee. Some even
charge as much as $3! For many people who withdraw money from ATMs daily,
that’s more than many would actually save in a year.
That’s a steep fee, especially when you’re trying to withdraw $5.:
To their credit, banks have tried to make ATMs much safer for us. They’ve
installed bright lights and security cameras. They don’t want anyone else
robbing us.
Some lawmakers, bless their hearts, are trying to put a limit on the
surcharges. They don’t want bankers to get carried away and use ATMs to pay
for their BMWs. They don’t want the ATMs to display this message: "Please
withdraw only half as much as you can afford, because we’re taking the other
half."
Banks say they have to charge a fee because ATMs are expensive. They cost
as much as $80,000 and that doesn’t even include the money inside.
It would be cheaper to put a human in a box. But there’s probably a law
against that. And humans, unlike machines, are prone to making mistakes.
They’re also prone to running off to Mexico with the money.
The surcharge also allows banks to install ATMs in many convenient places,
such as parks, plazas and prisons. But in their haste to make ATMs more
convenient, banks have made them less convenient for people like me. I’d rather
have one free ATM in my neighborhood, than a dozen that want to swindle me. A
couple of dollars may not seem like much to a banker, but to me, it means a
feast at Taco Bell.
