2.Principles of Marketing Marketing is the part of your business where money is made. In order to succeed in business, the following two principles of marketing should be kept in mind. First, customers are the mainstay of any business. Attracting customers to a business makes the difference between succeeding and failing. Therefore, the business needs to direct all activities towards satisfying the customers’ needs. If customers are satisfied, there is a chance that they will be retained for a long time and possibly permanently. Undoubtedly they are likely to talk to other potential customers. Another principle for a business is that profitable sales volume is more important than maximum sales volume. The profitable sales volume is the volume of sales that actually will earn a business the most profit. And the maximum sales volume simply refers to the biggest sum of retail sales. Since the aim of most businesses is to make as much profit as possible, businesses value profits more than the volume of sales. A large volume of sales may result in a low profit margin, therefore, it is important for marketers to focus on their profitable sales volume. Decide if each of the following statement is TRUE (T) or FALSE (F).1. In order to succeed in business, three principles of marketing should be kept in mind.()2. If customers are satisfied, they will be likely to encourage more people to buy the products or services.()3. The profitable sales volume is the volume of sales that will bring a business profit.()4. The maximum sales volume refers to the biggest sum of retail sales.()5. Profitable sales volume is as important as the maximum sales volume.()

  • 第3题：

    Income Income may be national income and personal income. Whereas national income is defined as the total earned income of all the factors of production-namely, profits, interest, rent, wages, and other compensation for labor, personal income may be defined as total money income received by individuals before personal taxes are paid. National income does not equal GNP (Gross National Product) because the factors of production do not receive payment for either capital consumption allowances or indirect business taxes, both of which are included in GNP. The money put aside for capital consumption is for replacement and thus is not counted as income. Indirect taxes include sales taxes, property taxes , and excise taxes that are paid by businesses directly to the government and so reduce the income left to pay for the factors of production. Three-fourths of national income goes for wages, salaries, and other forms of compensation to employees. Whereas national income shows the income that the factors of production earn, personal income measures the income that individuals or households receive. Corporation profits are included in national income because they are earned. Out of these profits, however, corporation profit taxes must be paid to the government, and some money must be put into the business for expansion. Only that part of profits distributed as dividends goes to the individual; therefore, out of corporation profits only dividends count as personal income. The factors of production earn money for social security and unemployment insurance contributions, but this money goes to government (which is not a factor of production), not to individuals. It is therefore part of national income but not part of personal income. On the other hand, money received by individuals when they collect social security or unemployment compensation is not money earned but money received. Interest received on government bonds is also in this category, because much of the money received from the sale of bonds went to pay for war production and that production no longer furnishes a service to the economy. The money people receive as personal income may be either spent or saved. However, not all spending is completely voluntary. A significant portion of our income goes to pay personal taxes. Most workers never receive the money they pay in personal taxes, because it is withheld from their paychecks. The money that individuals are left with after they have met their tax obligations is disposable personal income. Disposable income can be divided between personal consumption expenditures and personal savings. It is important to remember that personal saving is what is left after spending. Which of the following statements is true according to the first paragraph?（）

    • A、GNP equals national income plus indirect business taxes.
    • B、GNP excludes both capital consumption allowances and indirect business taxes.
    • C、Personal income is regarded as the total money income received by an individual after his or her taxes are paid.

The factors of production earn money for social security and unemployment insurance contributions, but this money goes to government (which is not a factor of production), not to individuals. It is therefore part of national income but not part of personal income. On the other hand, money received by individuals when they collect social security or unemployment compensation is not money earned but money received. Interest received on government bonds is also in this category, because much of the money received from the sale of bonds went to pay for war production and that production no longer furnishes a service to the economy. The money people receive as personal income may be either spent or saved. However, not all spending is completely voluntary. A significant portion of our income goes to pay personal taxes. Most workers never receive the money they pay in personal taxes, because it is withheld from their paychecks. The money that individuals are left with after they have met their tax obligations is disposable personal income. Disposable income can be divided between personal consumption expenditures and personal savings. It is important to remember that personal saving is what is left after spending. This passage is mainly about（）
    A

    the difference between national income and GNP

    B

    the difference between national income and personal income

    C

    the concept of income

    D

    the difference between disposable income and nondisposable income


    正确答案： D
    解析： 文章主要讲收入的两大分类及其区别。这一点可以从文章的第一句话看出。文章第一段的第一句话常常是文章的论点句。因此A，C和D均不是完整的答案。答案为B。

  • 第24题：

    单选题
    Hancock’s research finding surprised those who believed that _____.
    A

    people are less likely to lie in instant messages

    B

    people are unlikely to lie in face-to-face interactions

    C

    people are most likely to lie in email communication

    D

    people are twice as likely to lie in phone conversations


    正确答案： D
    解析：
    细节题。选项C同义替换了第三段第二句。选项A未在文中提及。根据第三段末句“Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges ...”，另一些心理学家对Hancock的研究表示惊讶，认为人们在面对面交流时更易撒谎，选项B与此矛盾，故排除B项。选项D是根据第一段“people are twice likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in emails”而设计的干扰项，这是Hancock的研究结果，与本题不符，故排除。
