the text below in order to answer questions 1 to 5: Deficit
Spells Trouble The US economic expansion, which has already
achieved an unprecedented period of unbroken growth, continues
to stride ahead. But there could be trouble on the way. Robert
Siddles, head of the US equities at Gartmore, says: “There has
only been one recession in the last 16 years in the US, where
there has been strong growth and unexpectedly low inflation”.
He explains the economic picture has been almost perfect:
“Murphy’s law is working in reverse”, Siddles says about
the US economy. He explains: “If it can go right, it will go
right”. But he is concerned about the level of the current
account deficit, which is running out at about 5% of the gross
domestic product. But Siddles adds: “The problem with the
current account deficit may not be quite as bad as it appears.
The government is borrowing less and the health of the economy
is supporting the deficit”. Which aspect of the US economy is
seen as worrying?
Its
foreign policy
Its
present account deficit
Its
tax regulations
Its
stockmarket
Its
present elections

the text below in order to answer questions 6 to 10: Taxing
Developments Up until 5 April 1999, investors received
dividends from stocks and shares net of a tax credit of 20%.
This 20% tax is paid by the company declaring the dividend to
the Inland Revenue as Advance Corporation Tax. Until the July
1997 Budget, all those who did not pay tax, such as individuals
with low incomes, pension shemes and Pep investors, could
reclaim this tax credit from the Inland Revenue. The 1997
measures immediately ended the right of pension funds to reclaim
this tax, and in April 1999 non-tax payers were no longer able
to reclaim this credit either. Furthermore, from 6 April 1999,
the tax credit on dividends was reduced to 10% and Pep and Isa
investors are only allowed to reclaim this 10% tax credit, not
the previous level of 20%. According to the text, changes to
Inland Revenue rules on the taxation

the text below in order to answer questions 11 to 15: The
Internet´s Days as a Tax-free Zone are Numbered The sales tax,
also known as the excise tax, is one of the oldest, and
therefore one of the most reviled, of all levies. Revolutions
and rebellions have been fought over it. But the battle today
over whether to tax Internet sales, while not violent, is as
heated as any. Even Republicans, who almost never disagree about
taxes, are at each other’s throats on the issue. Virginia
governor Jim Gilmore opposes new taxes on e-commerce as a way to
spur the Net, while Utah governor Michael Leavitt thinks online
sales must be taxed to keep state and local governments solvent.
A congressional commission that was supposed to settle the issue
ended in deadlock earlier this year. Citizens have every right
to grouse about the ill effects of sales taxes on Net growth,
but the right of governments to impose them isn’t in dispute.
What’s more, lawmakers don’t have much of a policy reason
not to apply a sales tax to commerce over the Internet. Thus the
surprise of the Internet debate: Despite all the hyperbole
pouring out of the mouths of politicians lately, cyberspace
almost certainly won’t remain a (nearly) tax-free zone
forever. For now, the federal government has imposed a
moratorium on new Internet taxes through October 2001. In
connection with taxation of e-commerce, the text does not
mention
Republicans
unions
legislators
citizens
a
congressional commission
27)
In
the present context, levies are
issues
regulations
technologies
policies
taxes
28)
According
to the headline of the text, a tax-free zone
will
surely remain untouched
may
remain forever
is
going to be implemented
will
not survive for much longer
might
soon be devised
29)
Concerning
the issue of taxing e.commerce, a congressional commission
was
finally able to reach an agreement
will
soon be settled
was
not able to reach an agreement
may
at last come to an agreement
is
now coming to an agreement
30)
When
the author states that the sales tax is one of the most reviled
of all levies, he means that it
