在影响需求价格弹性的因素中,时间因素与商品需求价格弹性大小的关系是( )。
大多数商品,长期需求比短期需求富有价格弹性,耐用消费品的短期弹性大于长期需求的弹性。对于大多数商品来说,长期需求比短期需求更富有弹性。原因之一就是人们需要较长的时间才能改变他们的消费习惯,另一个原因是人们对某一种商品的需求可能与另一种商品的存量有关,后者只能慢慢的变化。对于耐用消费品,如汽车,如果价格上升,消费者最初不会购买新车,因此,汽车的年需求量会急剧下降。而从长期来看,人们必须购买新车来替换已报废的旧车,所以对汽车的年需求量会逐步上扬,故耐用消费品的短期弹性大于长期需求的弹性。A项正确,当选;BCD项错误,排除。故本题正确答案选A。

宏观经济政策与证券市场间的关系具体如下:①货币政策的调整会直接、迅速地影响证券市场;②财政政策的调整对证券市场具有持久但较缓慢的影响;③汇率政策的调整从结构上影响证券市场价格,具体体现在:本币汇率贬值,本国产品的竞争力增强,出口型企业将受益,此类公司的证券价格就可能上涨;本币汇率贬值,将导致短期投机套利性资本流出本国,使本国的证券市场资金供给减少,证券需求下降,价格下跌。反之,本币汇率升高,不利于企业出口,出口型企业与产业效益下滑,证券价格下跌;本币汇率升值,如果市场预期汇率还有进一步升值的空间,则国际短期套利资本会大量流入本国,增加本国的证券市场资金供给,推动证券价格上涨。综上,A项当选;BCD项排除。故本题正确答案选A。

甲公司2019年12月1日购入生产设备一台,入账价格为200000元,采用年数总和法摊销,预计净残值5000元,预计使用年限5年。2020年12月31日,该生产设备的可收回金额为120000元,则2020年底,该设备的账面价值为( )。
2020年12月31日生产设备账面价值=200000-(200000-5000)×5/15=135000(元),账面价值高于可收回金额时,将其差额计提减值损失,确认减值准备,因此确认后的价值为120000元。因此选项BCD错误,故本题正确答案选A。

甲公司因该诉讼应确认预计负债的金额=20+400=420(万元),基本确定可从保险公司获得80万元的补偿,应通过其他应收款核算,不能冲减预计负债的账面价值。相关会计分录为:
借:管理费用20
营业外支出400
贷:预计负债420
借:其他应收款80
贷:营业外支出80

During her junior year of high school,Diane Ray's teacher handed her a worksheet and instructed the 17-year-old to map out her future financial life.Ray pretended to buy a car,rent an apartment,and apply for a credit card.Then,she and her classmates played the"stock market game",investing the hypothetical earnings from their hypothetical jobs in the market in the disastrous fall of 2008."Our pretend investments crashed,"Ray says,still frightened."We got to know how it felt to lose money."
That pain of earning and losing money is a feeling that public schools increasingly want to teach.Forty states now offer some type of financial instruction at the high-school level,teaching students how to balance checkbooks and buy stock in math and social-studies classes.Though it's too early to measure the full influence of the Great Recession,the interest in personal-finance classes has risen since 2007 when bank failures started to occur regularly.Now,many states including Missouri,Utah,and Tennessee require teenagers to take financial classes to graduate from high school.School districts such as Chicago are encouraging money-management classes for kids as young as primary school,and about 300 colleges or universities now offer online personal-finance classes for incoming students."These classes really say,'This is how you live independently,'"says Ted Beck,president of National Endowment for Financial Education.
Rather than teach investment methods or financial skills,these courses offer a back-to-the-basics approach to handling money:Don't spend what you don't have.Put part of your monthly salary into a savings account,and invest in the stock market for the long-term rather than short-term gains.For Ray,this means dividing her earnings from her part-time job at a fast-food restaurant into separate envelopes for paying bills,spending and saving."Money is so hard to make but so easy to spend,"she says one weekday after school."That is the big takeaway."
Teaching kids about the value of cash certainly is one of the programs'goals,but teachers also want students to think hard about their finances long term.It's easy for teenagers to get annoyed about gas prices because many of them drive cars.But the hard part is urging them to put off the instant satisfaction of buying a new T-shirt or an iPod."Investing and retirement aren't things teenagers are thinking about.For them,the future is this weekend,"says Gayle Whitefield,a business and marketing teacher at Uth’s Riverton High School.
That’s a big goal for these classes:preventing kids from making the same financial missteps their parents did when it comes to saving,spending,and debt.Though the personal savings rate has increased up to 4.2 percent,that’s still a far distance from 1982,when Americans saved 11.2 percent of their incomes.“It’s hard for schools to reach strict money-management skills when teenagers go home and watch their parents increase credit-card debt.It’s like telling your kids not to smoke and then lighting up a cigarette in front of them,”Beck says.
Even with these challenges,students such as Ray say learning about money in school is worthwhile.After Ray finished her financial class,she opened up a savings account at her local bank and started to think more about how she and her family would pay for college.“She just has a better understanding of money and how it affects the world,”says her mother,Darleen-and that’s sown to the details of how money is spent from daily expenses to various taxes.All of this talk of money can make Ray worry,she says,but luckily,she feels prepared to face it.

Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about$125 billion in economic losses each year,according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum,an organization led by Annan,the former United Nations secretary general.
The report,to be released Friday,analyzed data and existing studies of health,disaster,population and economic trends.It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition and heat-related health problems.
But even before its release,the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.
Along with the deaths,the report said that the lives of 325 million people,primarily in poor countries,were being seriously affected by climate change.It projected that the number would double by 2030.
Roger Pielke Jr.,a political scientist at the University of Colorado,Boulder,who studies disaster trends,said the Forum's report was"a methodological embarrassment"because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable regions.Dr.Pielke said that“climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.”But the report,he said,"will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed."
However,Soren Andreasen,a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report,defended it,saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates.He said the report was aimed at world leaders,who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.
In a press release describing the report,Mr.Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases.More than 90%of the human and economic losses from climate change are occurring in poor countries,according to the report.
What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?
根据文章的首段300,000 deaths and about$125 billion可知主体词应当是关于economic和Rates of death,选项CD排除。根据文章后文的段落可知第二段开始就没有再提到金钱方面了,而都是在讲死亡和疾病的话题,所以可以确定主体词应当是rates of death。故本题正确答案选B。

The report,to be released Friday,analyzed data and existing studies of health,disaster,population and economic trends.It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition and heat-related health problems.
But even before its release,the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.
Along with the deaths,the report said that the lives of 325 million people,primarily in poor countries,were being seriously affected by climate change.It projected that the number would double by 2030.
Roger Pielke Jr.,a political scientist at the University of Colorado,Boulder,who studies disaster trends,said the Forum's report was"a methodological embarrassment"because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable regions.Dr.Pielke said that“climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.”But the report,he said,"will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed."
However,Soren Andreasen,a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report,defended it,saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates.He said the report was aimed at world leaders,who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.
In a press release describing the report,Mr.Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases.More than 90%of the human and economic losses from climate change are occurring in poor countries,according to the report.
What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?
根据顺序原则,第三段提到the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,这和A选项内容是完全相一致的,challenged是criticism的同义替换,A项正确。B选项中的interest表示“兴趣”,主要用于好的事物,这里讲的都是对the Forum's repor的批评,表述错误;C选项表达的意思跟原文正好相反,排除;D选项中a big stir“一阵巨大的骚乱”文中是完全没有提到的,文中第四段只是提到primarily in poor countries,were being seriously effected只是说有影响,但并非巨大骚乱。故本题正确答案选A。

What does Dr.Pielke say about the Forum’s report?
根据人名定位至第五段第二行the Forum's report was‘a methodological embarrassment和第六行but the report,he said will harm the…it is so deeply flawed这两句话,可知他认为这份报告的纰漏是非常大的。选项B:从方法论来讲,这份报告是无效的,选项中invalid是flawed的同义替换。选项A:数据尴尬失真,表述错误;选项C:这份报告值得我们密切关注,文中并未提及;选项D:结论过分夸大,不符合文意。故本题正确答案选B。

What is Soren Andreasen's view of the report?
在第六段的第二行和第三行可以看到the number were rough estimates.He said the report was aimed at world leaders可知他认为数据是粗略的,报告也是给世界各国领导人看的,D项表述正确。故本题正确答案选D。

What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?
最后一段是Kofi Annan说的话,在末段第二行…from rich to poor regions to help reduce…可知他focus(关注)的是发达有钱的区域帮助贫困区,D项表达的句意和文中所展示的句意一致,故本题正确答案选D。
I hear many parents saying that their teenage children are rebellion.I wish it were so.At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents.You should be learning to stand on your own two feet.But take a good look at the present rebellion.It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they degree with their parents.Instead of striking out bravely on their own,most of them are trying to seize at one another’s hands for safety.
They say they want to dress as they please.But they all wear the same clothes.They set off in new directions in music.But somehow reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it.They have come out of their cocoon—into a larger cocoon.
It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way.Industry has firmly opened up a teenage market.These days every teenager can learn from newspapers and TV what a teenager should have and be.And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children.All this adds up to great difficulty for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.
But the difficulty is worth getting over.The path is worth following.You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party.You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records.You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates.Well,go to it.Find yourself.Be yourself.Popularity will come—with the people who respect you for who you are.That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.

What’s the author’s tone in this passage?
作者在文章前半部分描述当前青少年追寻人云亦云式的“潮流”现象,然后最后作者表达了自己的态度,认为青少年应当遵循自己心中所想,那才是真正的寻找“潮流”的方式。所以作者的感情一直是鼓励的状态,故本题正确答案选A。
Today,only 4 million people live and work on farms in the United States,but they produce more than enough food for 200 million Americans.They are able to do this because modern agriculture depends more on up-to-date machinery and scientific methods than it does on old-fashioned knowledge and human labor.
These days,one man or woman spending an afternoon in an air-conditioned,stereo-equipped tractor can do the work that years ago would have required hundreds of hours of back-breaking drudgery.
As a result of the modernization of agriculture,the farm of today looks a lot like a factory.When the farmer's hens lay their eggs,conveyor belts carry the eggs off to be sorted and packed.If the farmer keeps pigs,those pigs will not be wallowing in the mud,but lying around in sanitary pens.And the farmer is likely to be found studying a computer print-out of long-range weather conditions.Why isn’t the farmer milking cows in the barn?The answer is easy:A machine is doing it.
This reliance on modern technology has its problems for farmers.The tractors that plow their fields,the combines that reap and thresh the grain,and the silos that store the grain for winter feeding are all very expensive.For example,a single tractor can cost as much as$50,000.Without this equipment,farmers could not run their farms profitably,but,to pay for it,farmers must take out large bank loans.A single bad season could put them deeply in debt.And,when the machinery wears out or becomes obsolete,the farmers must replace it with newer,more expensive models.Still,most farmers are willing to put up with these difficulties because their machines have freed them from the heavy labor and hard life that farmers had to endure in the past.
In the United States there are fewer farmers,because( ).
根据首段内容可知美国农民人数减少的根本原因是现代化的农业为其提供了充足的食品。C项提到的内容仅是其中一个原因,不够全面;选项BD表述明显与文意不一致。故本题正确答案选A。
