15、总题数：2，分数：10.00)Passage 1Commercial bank deposits, including demand deposits, are subject to immediate withdrawal during regular banking hours at the request of the depositor with the exception of certain time deposits, discussed in this section. Demand deposits may be withdrawn in the form of curre

16、ncy or coin, or they may be transferred to another account at any commercial bank. Demand deposits at commercial banks can be transferred by bank check and are sometimes called checking accounts. No money interest is paid on demand deposits. Checkable NOW accounts, or share drafts at credit unions,

17、which are available to consumers but not business depositors, pay interest. Technically, they are savings accounts that are accessible by a negotiable order of withdrawal.Savings deposits at commercial banks and thrifts can usually be withdrawn as currency or coin, or as a cashiers check of the bank

18、 (a check drawn against the issuing bank) ; they may be trans-fenced into the depositors demand deposit account at the same bank, although technically the bank may refuse to withdraw or transfer a savings account for 30 days.Time deposit accounts with specified maturities are exceptions to the conve

19、ntion that commercial bank deposits should be convertible to cash on demand. Prior to the date of maturity, the bank may refuse to exchange such a time deposit claim or may impose a penalty fee. The time deposit pays interest, giving it one of the characteristics of other private bonds.Consumer or p

20、ersonal time deposits include CDs in denominations of less than $100,000. They are non-negotiable; that is, they cannot be sold and must be returned to the issuing bank by the original purchaser. Until 1976, there were effective ceilings on interest payments. In 1973, consumer CDs were first authori

21、zed with ceiling interest yields closer to market interest rates. They were called money market certificates.（分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following is excluded from the commercial bank deposits?A. Demand deposits. B. Time deposits. C. Checking accounts. D. Treasury bills.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).How do peo

22、ple draw money with a commercial bank against a NOW account?A. By a bank check. B. By a demand.C. By a negotiable order of withdrawal. D.

23、emand deposit account of the depositor.C. A NOW account of the depositor. D. A fixed time account of the depositor.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).What can we learn from the third part of the passage?A. Time deposit accounts are not subject to the convention so that they can not be converted to cash before the

24、ir maturity date.B. Commercial banks may impose a penalty fee on all kinds of accounts.C. People can get interest payment when they exchange their tired deposits for private bonds.D.

26、ce of payments is a statistical record of all the economic transaction between residents of the reporting country and residents of the rest of the world during a given time period. The usual reporting period for all the statistics included in the accounts is a year. A good or bad set of figures can

27、have an influential effect on the exchange rate and can lead policy makers to change the content of their economic policies. Deficits may lead to the government raising interest rate or reducing public expenditure to reduce imports. Alternatively, deficits may lead to calls for protection against fo

28、reign imports or capital controls to defend the exchange rate.A key definition that needs to be resolved at the outset is that of a domestic and foreign resident. It is important to note that citizenship and residency are not necessarily the same thing from the viewpoint of the balance of payments s

29、tatistics. The term residents comprises individuals, households, firms and the public authorities. There are some problems that arise with respect to the definition of a resident. Multinational corporations are by definition resident in more than one country. For the purposes of balance-of-payments

30、reporting, the subsidiaries of a multinational are treated as being a resident in the country in which they are located even if their shares are actually owned by domestic residents. Another problem concerns the treatment of international organizations such as the International Monetary Fund, the Wo

31、rld Bank and the United Nations. These institutions are treated as being foreign residents even though they may actually be located in the reporting country. For example although the International Monetary Fund is located in Washington, contributions by the US government to the Fund are included in

32、the US balance-of-payments statistics because they are regarded as transactions with a foreign resident. Tourists are regarded as being foreign residents if they stay in the reporting country for less than one year.The criterion for a transaction to be included in the balance of payments is that it

33、must involve a transaction between a resident of the reporting country and a resident from the rest of the world. Purchases and sales between residents from the same country are excluded.（分数：5.00）(1).What is the balance of payments?A. The balance of payments is a digital table of all the economic tr

34、ansactions between residents of the reporting country and residents of the rest of the world during a given time period.B. The balance of payments is a figured table of all the economic transactions between residents of the reporting country and resident of the rest of the world during a given time

35、period.C. The balance of payments is a statistical record of all the economic transactions between residents of the reporting country and residents of the rest of the world during a given time period.D. The balance of payment is a digital record of all the economic transactions between residents of

36、the reporting country and residents of the test of the world during a given time period.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Which of the following statement is true?A. Deficit may lead government to reduce interest rate.B. Deficit may lead government to raise expenditure on imports.C. Surplus may lead government t

37、o stimulate imports from foreign countries.D. Surplus may lead government to reduce expenditure on imports.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).It is important to note that _.A. citizenship is less important than residency are the same thing from the viewpoint of the balance of payments statisticsB. citizenship has

38、 a broader meaning than residencyC. citizenship and residency are indeed the same thing from the viewpoint of the balance of payments statisticsD. citizenship and residency are not necessarily the same thing from the viewpoint of the balance of payments statistics（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Which of the fo
