Public goods are those commodities from whose enjoyment nobody can be effectively excluded. Everybody is free to enjoy the benefits of these commodities, and one person's utilization docs not reduce the possibilities of anybody else' s enjoying the same good. Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect.A flood control dam is a public goods.Once the dam is built,all persons living in the area will benefit—irrespective of their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam. The same holds true for highway signs or aids to navigation. Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be effectively excluded from the utilization of the lighthouse for navigational purposes. National defense is another example.Even a person who voted against military expenditures or did not pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded. It is no easy task to determine the social costs and social benefits associated with public goods. There is no practicable way of charging drivers for looking at highway signs, sailors for watching a lighthouse,and citizens for the security provided to them through national defense.Because the market does not provide the necessary signals,economic analysis has to be substituted for the impersonal judgement of the marketplace.

2. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the first two paragraphs？

ASuggestions for the application of an economic concept are offered.

BSeveral generalizations are presented from which various conclusions are drawn.

CPersuasive language is used to argue against a popular idea.

DA general concept is defined and then examples are given.

“When one of the doctors criticizes（批评）me，I get defensive： I feel like a child again， being scolded，and I want to explain that I’m not wrong.”says Viola， a nurse. This is a common reaction（反应）to criticism,but not a good one. There are better ways of dealing with criticism. （1）Try to be objective（客观）. When Sol was criticized by his new employer for not having made a sale,Sol’s reaction was to feel sorry for himself.“I had put everything I had into making that sale,”Sol says,“and I felt that I had failed as a person. I had to learn through experience not to react like that to each failure.” (2)Take time to cool down. Rather than reacting immediately to criticism,take some time to think over what was said. Your first question should be whether the criticism is fair from the other person's position. The problem may be a simple misunderstanding of what you did or your reasons for doing it. （3）Take positive（积极的）action. After you cool down， consider what you can do about the situation. The best answer may be“nothing”.'I finally realized that my boss was having personal problems and taking them out on me because I was there,” says Sheila.“His criticisms didn’t really have anything to do with my work, so nothing I said or did was going to change them.”In Sheila’s case, the best way to deal with it was to leave her job. However,that’s an extreme reaction. You may simply explain your opinion without expecting an in-depth discussion. You may even decide that the battle isn't worth fighting this time. The key, in any case, is to have a reasonable plan.

3. When Sol was criticized by his employer,he______.

Aargued bitterly with his employer

Bwas angry and gave up his job

Cwas sorry for what he did

Dwas sad and self-pitying

It seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain.Its first use was as a shade against the sun！ Nobody knows who first invented it,but the umbrella was used in very ancient times.Probably the first to use it were the Chinese,as early as the eleventh century B.C. We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade.And there was a strange thing connected with its use:it became a symbol of honour and authority.In the Far East in ancient times the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office. In Europe,the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade.And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece.But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the Middle Ages,the use of the umbrella practically disappeared.Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority. By 1680,the umbrella appeared in France,and later on in England. By the eighteenth century,the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that women's umbrellas began to be made,in a whole variety of colours.

4. This passage talks mainly about______.

Ahow the umbrella was invented

Bwhy the umbrella was so popular in Europe

Cthe development of the umbrella

Dwho needed umbrella first
