Coupons to spend
“How did you spend your coupons?”
On their first day back to school, many students in Hangzhou greeted each other this way.
The coupons referred to the 100 yuan coupons each student received form the city government before the Spring Festival holidays. Over 260,000 primary school and middle school students were given coupons. They could use them in local stores and supermarkets, or to see movies and buy books.
The same coupons have also been given to low income families in Hangzhou. Other cities, including Chengdu and Nanjing, also gave coupons to their citizens. More cities are expected to follow their lead.
Why are local governments doing this?
These programmes are all part of a broader effort in China to increase domestic demand in the face of the global financial crisis.
The crisis has seriously affected China’s exports and investments (投资). Many factories in southern cities have been closed down. Some companies are laying off workers or reducing their pay. The stock market and real estate market have been falling.
In a time of financial crisis, people usually respond by saving money. They are uncertain about the future and are afraid that more difficult times may be ahead. Now many people are choosing not to spend money carelessly. Major chain stores have seen a sharp slowdown in sales, analysts say.
But spending keeps an economy healthy. If people don’t spend, there will be too many products in the market. Then shops will stop buying products from factories. When factories receive no orders, they close down. The workers there accordingly lose their jobs. Also, if people don’t spend, the service industry suffers. The total result is that the whole economy breaks down.
Issuing coupons is a practical and effective way to increase domestic demand in the current situation, said Jiang Zengwei, vice-minister of China’s Ministry of Commerce. Hangzhou reported a rise in customers in local markets during Spring Festival holiday.
However, issuing coupons is only a temporary measure. To increase consumers’ confidence, the government needs to establish a sound secure social system in the long term. When people don’t have to worry about education, health care and their pension, they will be more willing to spend instead of saving.
1.Why are local governments issuing coupons?
A. To increase domestic demand in the face of the global financial crisis.
B. To enable students to use them in local stores and supermarkets, or to see movies and buy books independently.
C. To help those low income families in the global financial crisis.
D. To show the government’s ability to solve economic problems
2.What is NOT the influence that the global financial crisis has brought us?
A. China’s exports and investments have been seriously affected.
B. People begin to spend money without a second thought.
C. Workers are faced with losing jobs and the reduction of the salaries.
D. The active stock market and real estate market have gone.
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Issuing coupons is a practical and effective way to increase domestic demand in a long term.
B. The total result of saving money is that the whole economy breaks down.
C. The government may carry out new policies to encourage citizens to be willing to spend in the near future.
D. After issuing the coupons, the local markets have seen a rise in customers during Spring Festival holiday.
4.If the government is to print a slogan on the coupons to restore consumers’ confidence, what might be used to promote the idea?
A. Spend now, save later.
B. Spend money like there’s no tomorrow; come on!
C. Spend money like it’s going out of style; let’s do it!
D. Big spender, wise spender.

When you are at odds with someone close to you,the One-Minute Drill can show you how to express your feelings effectively-and how to listen more skillfully.All it requires is two individuals who are committed to improving their relationship.
Set aside at least ten minutes,and then sit facing each other.Decide who will be the Talker and who will be the Lastener.It makes no difference,because later you will change roles.
How to perform the One-Minute Drill
For approximately 30 seconds,the Talker can say anything he or she wants.Your job will be to express your thoughts and feelings.You can discuss problems you’ve had a hard time talking about.Remember to limit yourself to about 30 seconds.When the Talker finishes,the Listener will summarize what the Talker just said,as well as how the Talker was feeling inside,as accurately as possible.
The Talker now gives the Listener a grade between 0 and 100 percent to indicate how accurate the summary was.If the rating is 95 percent or more,you can change roles;the new Talker can continue with the same topic or move on to something entirely new.
However,if the grade is below 95 percent,the Talker should point out what the Listener missed or got wrong,and repeat the process until the overall rating is 95 percent or more.Then you can change roles and repeat the exercise for as long as you both like.
How it works
Thirty seconds of emotionally charged information is sufficiently challenging for anyone.Express your feelings in strong,clear,direct language,but as your partner will be listening attentively,you won’t need to shout,exaggerate or put your partner down.
The Listener should sit and listen respectfully without interrupting.Look into your partner’s eyes,but avoid using negative body language. If you like,take a few notes.
So the Talker might say:“When I come home from work, I feel tired and I need some quiet time.But you tell me I’m supposed to spend time with the kids.This makes me feel frustrated.I work hard and I’m exhausted at the end of the day.I feel like I deserve a little time to relax,not listen to more demands.”
In response,the Listener might summarize like this:“You just told me that you feel exhausted when you come home at night because you’ve been working hard all day.When l tell you l want you to spend time with the kids,you feel frustrated and ticked off because you’re tired and you need time to relax.You see me as very demanding,and you’re probably feeling like I don’t appreciate you.”
The first time you attempt the One-Minute Drill,you may get a low score.Don’t worry,because you’ll get up to speed quickly.Once you’ve tried this exercise a few times,you’ll find that you can nearly always get ratings of 95 percent or better on the first or second try.

B.Those who have difficulty communicating with their colleagues or family members.
