举一反三

Your mobile phone rings and instead of the usual electronic signals it’s playing your favourite music.A friend sends your favourite song to cheer you up.One day,a record company might forward new records and music videos to your phone.
The mobile business is getting into the music business.For the moment,the interest is in pleasant ring tones,but some companies are hoping to take full advantage of the next generation of mobile phones—all purpose gadgets that blend phone,personal stereo,video player and Internet browser into one.
Finally,record companies might send new records and videos to fans who register their cell phone numbers.
The fans could pass music or songs along to friends—a kind of musical trading card.Unlike Internet tracks,mobile downloads would be easy for record companies to control,said former record industry official Ralph,Simon,who is now chairman of Yourmobile,based in Santa Monic,California.
“If you pass a song along to other phones through a network,each phone can be charged,” said Simon.“It’s like going through toll gate (收费站).There’s more possibility for copyright control than there is on the Internet.”
Massachusetts-based Converse is offering service in Portugal and the Netherlands that lets people record tunes on their voice mail or send music as presents to friends.Finally,people might be able to sing karaoke and pass them along.The company is sure that people will want to use music to reach out and touch someone.
“A mobile phone is not a listening machine,and you’ll be disappointed if you think you can change it into a radio,” said Ouzel,a creative manager for Converse in Israel.“But if someone sends you a song while you’re on vacation,you appreciate the feeling.”
72.The underlined word “blend” in the second paragraph most probably means _____.
A.send                B.come               C.mix                 D.compare
73.“Massachusetts-based Converse”in the sixth paragraph probably refers to ______.
A.a person                                      B.a city in Israel        
C.a state of the USA                    D.a company
74.Record companies ______ the idea of passing songs and music along mobile phones.
A.are worried about                         B.are interested in
C.try hard to stop                             D.take no notice of
75.According to Ralph Simon it would be easier to _______ through mobile phone network than through the Internet.
A.protect copyright of music works   B.send personal messages
C.pass along songs and music            D.send voice mail

In insurance theory, moral hazard is the name given to the increased risk of immoral behavior, and thus a negative outcome (“hazard”), because the person who caused the problem doesn’t suffer the full (or any) consequences, or may actually benefit.Such a concern typically arises in the context of a contract (for example, an insurance policy).
The most well known examples of moral hazard come from insurance.For example:
Fire insurance increases the motivation to commit arson (纵火), especially if someone is operating a failing business and decides that they’d rather have the cash from the insurance proceeds on the buildings than the buildings themselves.(The value of a business often is based on profitability; after arson, the owner can claim the business was profitable.) In a worst case, the building is over-insured or valuable contents are removed but claims are filed that they were destroyed in the fire.
In finance, low level of effort by the agent (employee) is called the “moral hazard problem” according to agency theory.The more autonomy (自主) the agent enjoys and the greater the information the agent possesses, and the greater the specialized knowledge required to perform the task, the greater the chances for the occurrence of moral hazard.
The problem of moral hazards for insurance can’t be eliminated, but can be minimized.For example:
Getting detailed information to evaluate the value of what is being insured, rather than simply taking the word of the person buying the insurance.
Requiring that there be a deductible(扣除额) (an initial up-front sum which the insured must pay out of his or her own pocket in case of a loss), and/or only paying out a percentage of the loss (say, 80 or 90 percent) via a coinsurance clause.
72.What might be the headache for the insurance company after a fire?
A.Not knowing who set the fire.
B.The owner might over-claim the loss.
C.Where to get the insurance fee paid.
D.How to punish those who cheated the company.
73.What might be the best way not to suffer over-loss in paying back insurance according to the above passage?
A.Investigate carefully after a fire.
B.Try to get as much detail information about the insurance.
C.Try to catch hold of the person who committed arson.
D.Request the buyer of insurance to pay more. 
74.The two examples in the above passage are applied to ______.
A.help people to have reasonable insurance
B.present the difficulties the insurance companies have
C.bring up a problem and a solution in insurance business
D.invite people to buy more profitable insurance
75.The above passage is mainly about ______.
A.a new theory in insurance                                    B.a moral challenge in business
C.a common business phenomenon             D.moral hazard in insurance
