32、ing which there is a steep increase in prices. In accordance with the laws of economics, three factors combine to create this condition. First, demand must be much greater than the supply of available goods. Second, the country must continuously create and thereby build up an ever-increasing supply

33、of money. Third, the governmental processes that are used to collect taxes must be crippled. Lets imagine a country where production is barely accomplishing goal: to keep up with demand. When this happens, the government should decrease the salaries of the workers by raising taxes. But the governmen

34、t is powerless to collect the fit so it prints more money to compensate for the goods it must purchase. This money goes to the workers who produced the goods as a result, and the people are not forced to give up certain things for a whilethey actually become richer, While this might appear to be a p

35、ositive step, it is actually regressive. Every month the government is forced to print more and more money , thereby increasing its liabilities until it is destroyed, The only way to prevent total economic collapse in such a situation is for the government to increase taxes in a manner that is chara

39、ngs to a countryC)the relationship between taxes and hyperinflationD)the supply of money and hyperinflationPassage 6A well-established distinction in memory theory is that between short-term and long-term memory. The former refers to our ability to do such things as remembering telephone numbers lon

40、g enough to dial them; the latter concerns the wide range of ways in which experiences can affect behavior many years late匚 Given the two different kinds of ability it is reasonable to hypothesize that each is represented differently in the brain. An experiment was designed to test the hypothesis th

41、at long-term memory implies a chemical change in the brain cells while short-term memory involves patterns of impulses in circuits of nerve cells.One group of rots were taught to run through a maze. Five minutes after learning the task, they were cooled to 5, the temperature at which all electrical

42、activity in the brain ceased. They were then kept at this temperature for 15 minutes before being allowed to return to their normal temperature. They were then run through the maze again.A second group of rats were taught to run the same maze and then immediately cooled to 5 for 15 minutes. After th

43、e rats were allowed to return to their normal temperature, an attempt was made to run the second group through the maze again. It was found that rats in the first group had no difficulty with the maze the second time, suggesting that they did not have to relearn the task. Rats in the group which wer

44、e cooled immediately after learning the maze, on the other hand, could not negotiate the maze successfully, i.e., they apparently could not remember what they had learned.1.

48、 timeD) rats were taught to run in different ways6.
