27、es, schools, etc, and to buy goods from abroad; and only the people of the country can supply the money. One of the most important taxes is income-tax which a person pays according to the amount of his income-tax. Whether he is a merchant, a doctor, a lawyer, a shopkeeper, a miner, or anything else.

28、 This is called a “direct” tax, because it is paid in money direct to the government.Another tax is paid on goods such as watches, jewellery, new clothes, tobacco, wine, etc, when they are brought into a country, such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops.

29、 We call it “indirect” tax, because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeeper.People usually complain about having to pay taxes, but they forget that the money is spent on things that they and their families need. We need policemen to catch thieves, to see that men obey the laws, to direct traffi

30、c, etc, and they must be paid what they earn; children need education and there must be schools and teachers; we want our streets to be kept clean, and the wages of men who do this kind of work have to be paid. Above all, the country must always be ready to defend itself against attacking enemies, a

31、nd we cannot have an army without paying for it.Taxes, therefore, cannot be avoided. We buy our own food and clothes and pay for our own amusements; but, there are several things that the State finds the money for, and that are necessary for us if our society is to continue. We have no real cause to

32、 complain, therefore, when we are asked to supply money to be spent for the good of ourselves and for our fellow-citizens.56. Indirect tax means .A. tax that one pays directly to the government B. tax that is not paid directly to the governmentC. tax that is paid as an extra amount added to the pric

33、e of certain goods D. both B and C57. Which of the following is right?A. Taxes are paid to the sellers. B. Income-tax is an indirect tax.C. The tax on new clothes is paid in money direct to the government.D. Tax is amount of money that you pay to the government for public services.58. People have no

34、 real reason to complain about having to pay taxes because .A. some shopkeepers are very rich B. they need money to buy goods from abroadC. their children need educationD. the money is spent on things that they and their families need59. “Taxes cannot be avoided”means .A. people have to pay taxes to

35、 the government B. you do not have to pay tax on some goods C. soldiers do not have to pay taxes D. all goods have to be taxedB A businessman must keep records of the money he takes in and the money he spends. The work of keeping such records is called bookkeeping. The work of deciding how the recor

36、ds should be set up is called accounting. An accountant also finds out, by studying the records, whether or not a business is doing well. The accountant must know many things about the business.Suppose a man owns a small clothing store, he keeps records that show that he spent money for newspaper ad

37、vertising, and for suits, shirts, shoes, and neckties to sell to his customers. He had to pay a young man to help him in the store. He also paid rent and had other expenses. At the end of the year, he must take an inventory. That is, he counts how many pieces of clothing he has on hand. Then he must

38、 find out exactly how many he sold, how much money he took in, and how much money he spent in running the business. If he took in more than he spent, he made a profit for the year. If he spent more than he took in, he suffered a loss. He depends on his store accounting records to get all this inform

39、ation.The owner of a small clothing store can keep records without much trouble. But a big oil company, or a big bank has many difficult accounting problems. The company must know how much money is to be paid by its debtors and how much it owes other companies for supplies. It must know how much it

40、has lost in depreciation, or wear and tear of its equipment. All of this information must be kept in the company's accounts. Big companies employ many accountants.After a company's accountants finish their yearly count, their work must be officially examined. Experts from outside company dou

41、ble-check the records to be sure the accounts are correct.60.

A small store owner can usually keep records .A. with difficulty B. easily C. without any help D. without working63. In big companies, after the accountants finish the yearly count, .A. the work will be

43、well done B. no one will check itC. the records will be finished D. experts will check the recordsCYou may think that inventions are far away from your everyday life. But in fact, almost everyone can invent. It's just that they do not recognize that their idea could be the start of an invention.

44、 Once inventors see their ideas have some practical value, they don't let them slip away. For example, the inventor of the dishwasher, American Josephine Cochrane, loved to give dinner parties. But she found it took too long to wash her dishes by hand and too many of them broke. She decided that

45、 a machine could do the job faster and with fewer mistakes. So, in 1886, she set out to make one for herself. Like Cochrane's, most inventions are created to solve a problem. So, the first and most important step is to find the problem. You can start by looking at what is wrong with things you u

46、se now. You can ask grandparents or neighbours if they remember ever saying: "I wish someone would invent something for." Or you can look at people in different areas such as on the street, or at school. Then you might notice situations or things in need of improvement. Remember to record

47、your ideas and work. This will help you develop your invention and protect it when it is completed. The next step is to think about possible solutions. An invention is a new way of solving a problem. So think of many, varied, and unusual ways. You can often come up with a solution for a problem by l

48、ooking at it from a different angle (角度) or thinking about it in a new way. Example 1 instead of thinking of shoes as protecting your feet from the ground, think of using something to protect the ground from your feet. Example 2 instead of thinking about how you can carry oranges home from a store,

49、think of how they can come to you by delivery or growing your own. Example 3 instead of experimenting with only one solution, can you put two or threesolutions together, or arrange them in different orders? And if one solution doesn't work, can it be put to other uses? That was how yellow post-i

50、t notes (N次贴) came about a "failed" adhesive (粘合剂) experiment proved a weak adhesive had good uses too! After all, most inventions are not brand new. They do not come out of nowhere, but come out of things or ideas that already exist (存在). And the hardest part of inventing, even for a lot

51、of inventors, is coming up with a problem and finding a solution. Once you have an idea, you can always get help building your invention. This problem-solving technique can also work in your everyday lives. So, why not try it in your studies, in your relationship with others, or even in the way you

52、look at the world? 64. The main idea of this story is _.A. how to improve the world around you B. that you can invent and how you will be able to do so C. problem-solving technique D. how inventors invent65. What makes inventors different from other people is probably that _. A. they consider every

53、new idea as an inventionB. they are full of creative ideas C. they enjoy solving problems D. they look for problems and try to solve them in a new and better way66. What made Josephine Cochrane decide to invent the dishwasher? A. Her love of parties. B. Her dislike of dishwashing. C. Her desire for

54、something that could do the dishwashing better.D. Her love of inventing.67. Which of the following is one of the ways to find a problem? A. Look at the world from a different angle. B. Find out things that people are not satisfied with. C. Do experiments. D. Never let a practical idea slip away.68.T

55、he underlined phrase "come about" probably means to _. A. come into beingB. put to useC. workD. become D When dinning in restaurants, Americans usually order drinks first, then soup, salad, main course or entree(主菜), and dessert at last. This is somewhat a different order way from that in

56、Europe.Until about the middle of the nineteenth century, Americans didnt have to worry about whether the salad came before or after the main course since they didnt eat salad at all. Chomping(大声地咀嚼) on greens was once considered sissy(女人气的), and Americans preferred to get their greens indirectly, after th
