    Value Added Tax is included in sales taxes.

    Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

    The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.

    B

    The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.

    C

    The workers are always honest with their working hours.

    D

    The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    根据文意可知，芬兰的老板不检查雇员的工作时间是出于对雇员的信任，而不是太忙顾不上。因此B项不正确。由倒数第二段首句“The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.”，可知A项正确。由最后一段中间部分“And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.”，可知C项“工人很诚实”正确。由倒数第二段第二句“They are … they have agreed with the boss on the rate.”可知个人和老板会事先就工资达成协议，所以D项也是正确的。因此本题答案为B。
