Large companies need a way to reach the savings of the public at large. The same problem, on a smaller 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. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange. By doing so, they can put into circulation the savings of individual and institutions, both at home and overseas.
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. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railways, this country could not function. All these require continuous spending on new equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone. The Government, 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 Stocky Exchange exists to provide a channel through which these savings can reach those who need finance. [br] All the essential services on which we depend are______.
选项
A、run by the Government or our local authorities
B、in constant need of financial support
C、unable to meet the needs of the populations
D、financed wholly by rates and taxes
答案
B
解析
推理题。根据题干关键词“services”定位第三段首句“Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local authorities”用的是many而不是all,故A项错误。第三段第三句的前半句“require continuous spending”则证明B项constant need正确,后半句“requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone”说明D项wholly是错的。原文并未对C项做出任何说明。故选B项。
