A number of values and beliefs in traditional societies tend to decrease the amount of money people are willing and able to take from their income and make available for productive investment. In many of these societies, gold and silver, houses and land have been some of the ways in which wealth has been stored. Attempts to encourage people to keep their savings in monetary form often meet strong resistance, which is simply increased in times like these of rapid inflation.
Perhaps the greatest obstacle to increasing savings and investments in the traditional society is the pressure of increasing population. In such countries, there is still a direct relationship between the amount of food available and the number of people who must be fed and thus cannot be used to increase the standard of living.
The following questions are based on the passage you have heard.
16. According to the passage how should wealth be stored for productive investment?
17. In the traditional society what effect do beliefs and values have on investment?
18. What does inflation tend to increase in the traditional society?
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.
16.
A) Stored as money.
B) Stored as gold and silver.
C) Stored in the house.
D) Stored on the land.
17.

B) They strongly resist investment.
C) They help to promote investment.
D) They generally tend to limit investment.
18.
A) Bank savings.
B) Productive investment.
C) Population.
D) Property purchases.
习题答案是16. A 17. D 18. D
您认为习题答案有误吗?我觉得16题应该选B。其他也没能看懂。
老师能大概讲解一下吗,我没太看懂这篇文章内容。
三个答案都是正确的。作阅读理解题时,应该带着问题去阅读,与问题无关的信息快速浏览过去,与问题的关键词有关的句子仔细阅读。16题问财富以何种方式储存有利于生产性投资。第一段内容告诉你传统社会里人们购置金银和房地产。这减少了可用于投资的钱。因此答案应该是money。17题问传统社会的信念和价值观对投资的影响是什么。找16题的答案的时候已经知道这个答案了,即tend to limit investment限制了投资。18题关键词为infation。问在传统社会,当出现通货膨胀时,会使什么增加。第一段最后一行就是答案。人们更不愿把钱留在手中,推理一下,购买不动产保值。答案为D。三道题的答案都在第一段。第二段可以不读了。
