Passage 1
Within a school curriculum，the study of home economics is sometimes described as life education. Because much of an individual’s life has traditionally centered upon the home and the family，home economics has been largely concerned with learning how to deal with the problems and challenges of homemaking. A basic knowledge of home economics helps a person make up a workable household budget，plan and prepare nutritious meals，choose a fabric(织物)for draperies(帐帘)，and care for a small child.
In recent years the scope of home economics has broadened considerably. It now includes areas of national and international interest. Today’s home economist may，for example，be engaged in developing foods for space flights，providing answers to the nutritional problems of underdeveloped nations，or setting up national classifications for textiles.
The study of home economics includes a wide variety of subjects，including foods and nutrition；clothing and textiles；housing，home equipment，and home management；family economics； child development；and family relations. Home economists are often required to have academic preparation in such related areas as chemistry，physics，sociology，psychology，and design.

A. all people spend most of their time at home
B. home economics basically teaches people how to deal with family problems

D. an individual has to spend most of his life studying home economics
57. According to the selection，a general understanding of home economics contributes to all the following except ______.

Passage 2
Large companies need a way to reach the savings of the public at large. The same problem，on a small scale，faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know，and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance，they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis 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 profits. They do this by issuing stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange. When the saver needs his money back，he does not have to go to the company with whom he 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 authorities. All these require more money than is raised through taxes alone. The Governmont，local authorities，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 job or 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.
61. Almost all companies involved in new production and development must ______.
A. rely on their own financial resources.
B. persuade the banks to provide long-term finance
C. borrow large sums of money from friends and people they know
D. depend on the population as a whole for finance
62. The money which enables these companies to go ahead with their projects is ______.
A. repaid to its original owners as soon as possible
B. raised by the selling of shares in the companies
C. exchanged for part ownership in The Stock Exchange
D. invested in different companies on The Stock Exchange
63. When the savers want their money back they ______.
A. ask another company to obtain their money for them
B. look for other people to borrow money from
C. put their shares in the company back on the market
D. transfer their money to a more successful company
64. All the essential services on which we depend are ______.
A. run by different companies
B. in constant need of financial support
C. unable to provide for the needs of the population
D. financed wholly by rates and taxes
65. The Stock Exchange makes it possible for the Government，local authorities and nationalized industries ______.
A. to borrow as much money as they wish
B. to make certain everybody saves money
C. to raise money to finance new developments
D. to make certain everybody lends money to them
