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 statistics. 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 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 World Bank, United Nations and so forth. 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 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 a year.
The criterion for a transaction to be included in the balance of payments is that it 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.
What is the balance of payments?
A.The balance of payments is a digital table of all the economic transactions 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 residents of the rest of the world during a given time 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 payments is a digital 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.

Subject: Survey Results
We have the results of our Preferred Investments Survey. I have attached the "Types of Investments" table.
There is one change on the survey compared to last year. We divided one major category into two parts. The parts are "buildings" and "property." That's why we don't have a number from last year to use as a comparison.
We talked to 1,000 investors between March 1 and March 15. While most of them put their money into a variety of investments, the survey shows that this year there was a greater variety in the type of investment chosen than last year. More people are purchasing each different type of investment. For example, look at the number of mutual fund investors last year (800) as compared to this year (850).
These results will help our company better decide how to sell our investment products. We predict three types of investment will increase in popularity, and they should be heavily advertised over the next year. Also, we predict that three investments will decrease in popularity. We should decide what to do about those. Are you available on Friday morning? Let's discuss the declining investments.
Types of Investments
March 1-15
*Prediction: d=will go down; s=will stay the same u=will go up
How many investors participated in the survey?
A.800
B.850
C.965
D.1,000

Diarrhea(腹泻)is the main cause of death among children in developing countries. Diarrhea results when the body tries to clear itself of harmful bacteria(细菌). The body does this by getting out liquids, sometimes uncontrollably. If too much water, sugar and salt are lost in this way, the body cannot work normally. The child may die.
The United Nations International Children's Fund, UNICEF, introduces a technique. It uses a simple mixture of sugar and salt in water. The mixture does not stop diarrhea. But if used often as needed, it keeps fluid (体液) levels normal until the body has fought off the harmful bacteria. In Egypt, for example, the treatment was used in a children's health care program in the province of Alexandria. It reduced by one-half the number of deaths caused by diarrhea. The technique bas now been used throughout the country.
According to the passage, a large number of children can be saved only when ________。
A.the life-saving ways are medically effective
B.their parents are rich enough for the life-saving techniques
C.the life-saving techniques are easy to use
D.their parents learn the life-saving techniques

Hamilton isn't the only educator crossing the Atlantic. School in France, Egypt, Singapore, etc. have also recently made top-level hires from abroad. Higher education has become a big and competitive business nowadays, and like so many business, it's gone global. Yet the talent flow isn't universal. High-level personnel tend to head in only one direction: outward from America.
The chief reason is that American schools don't tend to seriously consider looking abroad. For example, when the board of the University of Colorado searched for a new president, it wanted a leader familiar with the state government, a major source of the university's budget, "We didn't do any global consideration", says Patricia Hayes, the board's chair. The board ultimately picked Bruce Benson, a 69-year-old Colorado businessman and political activist(活动家) who is likely to do well in the main task of modern university presidents: fund raising. Fund raising is a distinctively American thing, since U.S. schools rely heavily on donations. The fund-raising ability is largely a product of experience and necessity.
Many European universities, meanwhile, are still mostly dependent on government funding. But government support has failed to keep pace with rising student numbers. The decline in government support has made fund-raising an increasingly necessary ability among administrators, and has hiring committees hungry for Americans.
In the past few years, prominent schools around the world have joined the trend. In 2003, when Cambridge University appointed Alison Richard, another former Yale provost, as its vice-chancellor, the university publicly stressed that in her previous job she had overseen(监督) "a major strengthening of Yale's financial position".
Of course, fund-raising isn't the only skill outsiders offer. The globalization of education means more universities will be seeking heads with international experience of some kind to promote international programs and attract a global student body. Foreigners can offer a fresh perspective on established practices.
What is the current trend in higher education discussed in the passage?
A.Institutions worldwide are hiring administrators from the U.S.
B.A lot of political activists are being recruited as administrators.
C.American universities are enrolling more international students.
D.University presidents are paying more attention to fund-raising.
