Вариант 1

 

 

1. Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие вопросы:

 

1. How did Milton and Hetty become so wealthy?

2. What was the meanest thing Hetty did?

3. Why did Milton like making a lot of money?

4. Who had the happier life? Milton or Hetty?

 

 

Every morning, billionaire Milton Petrie walked from his New York apartment and bought a newspaper from the ragged old man on the street corner. One morning the man wasn’t there. Petrie learned that he was very ill in the city hospital. Immediately he paid his hospital bill and later, when the man died, paid for his funeral.

The old man was just one of many people that Milton Petrie helped with his money. Whenever he read about personal disasters in his newspaper Petrie sent generous cheques, especially to the families of policemen or fireman injured at work. He also sent cheques to a mother who lost five children in the fire, and a beautiful model, whose face was cut in a knife attack. It cost him millions of dollars, but he still had millions left. He said that he was lucky in business and he wanted to help those less fortunate than himself. “The nice thing is, the harder I work, the more money I make, and the more people I can help.”

Milton Petrie died in 1994, when he was 92. His will was 120 pages long because he left $ 150 million to 383 people. His widow, Carroll, his fourth and last wife, said his generosity was a result of poverty of his early years. His family were poor but kindhearted. His father was a Russian immigrant who became a policeman, but he never arrested anyone, he was too kind. He couldn’t ever give a parking ticket.

Henrietta (Hetty) Green was a very spoilt, only child. She was born in Massachusetts, USA, in 1835. Her father was a millionaire businessman. Her mother was often ill, and so from the age of two her father took her with him to work and taught her about stocks and shares. At the age of six she started reading the daily financial newspaper and she opened her own bank account.

Her father died when she was 21 and inherited $7.5 million. She went to New York and invested on Wall Street. Hetty saved every penny, eating in the cheapest restaurants for 15 cents. She became one of the richest and most hated women in the world. She was called “The Witch of Wall Street”. At 33 she married Edward Green, a multimillionaire, and had two children, Ned and Sylvia.

Hetty’s meanness was legendary. She always argued about prices in shops. She walked to the local grocery store to buy broken cookies (biscuits), which were much cheaper, and to get a free bone for her much-loved dog, Dewey. Once she lost a two-cent stamp and spent the night looking for it. She never bought clothes and always wore the same long, ragged black skirt. Worst of all, when her son Ned fell and injured his knee, she refused to pay for a doctor and spent hours looking for free medical help. In the end Ned’s leg was amputated.

When she died in 1916 she left her children $ 100 million (worth $ 9.3 billion today). Her daughter built a hospital with her money.

1. Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие вопросы:

 

1. Why don’t many foreign people go to Nowy Swiat?

2. Why are the things produced by Polish manufacturers so good?

3. What can you buy here? What can’t you buy?

4. What is expensive? What isn’t expensive?

 

A recent survey has shown that the busiest shopping street in the world is not in London, New York, or Paris, but in Warsaw. It’s called Nowy Swiat (pronounced /novi sviet/), which means New World. An incredible 14,000 Poles walk down this main street every hour.

It is a lovely place to shop. The pavements are very wide. There are statues, palaces, attractive town houses, exclusive cafes, and high-class restaurants. The buildings aren’t too tall. They look old, but in fact the whole city was rebuilt after World War II.

There aren’t any billboards or neon lights. There isn’t any loud music, and there aren’t many tourists. People think that polish shops have nothing to sell, so nobody comes shopping here. The world doesn’t know about this paradise for shoppers – yet.

It is now possible to buy almost everything in Warsaw. There are a lot of shops from the West, but the interesting thing is that Polish manufacturers are now producing high quality goods. They are good because they are not mass produced for world consumption.

Nowy Swiat has a lot of small shops, specialist shops, and chic shops. It hasn’t got the huge department stores that sell the same things everywhere.

If you want an exquisite handmade suit, Nowy Swiat is the place to go. It isn’t cheap. You will pay up to 1,000 pounds. For beautiful French baby clothes, go to Petit Bateau. You will pay 50 pounds for a pair of blue jeans for a baby. A dress for a baby girl is about 90 pounds. At Desa, a famous antique shop, a desk costs 5,000, and a 19th century Russian icon is 200 pounds.

Not everything is expensive. At the shop Pantera you can buy leather goods – handbags, purses, coats, and belts. Cepelia specializes in folk art. There are also book shops and record shops. And there are a lot of small boutiques that sell men’s and women’s clothes that aren’t too expensive.

If you are tired, stop at Café Blikle. This is a fashionable place to meet. You’ll find a lively atmosphere, and a lot of well-known Poles. The frozen yoghurt and ice-creams are excellent, and its famous doughnuts are delicious.

It is possible to travel the world and find the same things for sale in every country. But Warsaw is different because its shops are unique – and they’re in Nowy Swiat.

1. Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие вопросы:

 

1. Which plant was known as white gold? Why?

2. Which plant has caused the death of many people?

3. Which of the three plants has most changed history? Why?

4. Which plant has done the greatest good? Which has done the greatest harm?

 

Tobacco.

For thousands of years tobacco was used by the American Indians with no ill-effect. In the 16^th century it was brought to Europe. This early tobacco was mixed with soil and rather dirty. It was chewed or smoked in pipes only by men – women thought it smelly and disgusting/

It was first grown commercially in America in the 17^th century on slave plantations. In the 18^th century new technology refined tobacco and the first cigarettes were produced. By the 1880s huge factories were producing cigarettes which were clean and easy to smoke. Chain-smoking and inhaling became possible and by the middle of the 20^th century tobacco addicts, both men and women, were dying of lung cancer in great numbers.

Nowadays cigarette smoking is banned in many places, especially in the USA. But until 1820 tobacco was America’s main export, and still today their tobacco industry makes over 4.2 billion a year.

Sugar.

Sugar cane was grown in India thousands of years ago. In Roman times it was known in Europe as a great luxury, and it was rare and expensive for many centuries after that. In 1493 Columbus took a sugar plant with him to the West Indies, where it grew so well that huge plantations were started by Europeans and worked on by slaves. The slaves were shipped across the Atlantic from Africa, packed sometimes one on top of the other in chains, on a journey that took six weeks. Many died. The empty ships then carried the sugar back to Europe. So much money was made that sugar was known as “white gold”.

Sugar is use to sweeten food and make sweets and chocolate. It is addictive but unnecessary. By the 16^th century the English were the greatest sugar-eaters in history. Elizabeth I lost all her teeth because she ate so much of it.

Cotton.

Cotton has been grown for over five thousand years in places as far apart as Mexico, China, Egypt, and India. It was first planted in America in 1607. Before 1800 cotton was a great luxury, more expensive than silk, because so many workers were needed to pick it. However, a huge increase in the number of slaves in the American South resulted in much greater cotton production and a fall in the price. This, and the new technology of the industrial revolution, made cotton the cheapest fabric in history. By 1820 cotton was making more money for the USA than tobacco, and more money worldwide than sugar.

The American Civil War of 1861- 1665 was fought because the Southern States wanted to form a separate country, so that they could continue to keep slaves on their cotton plantations. Slavery was banned in the Northern States in 1808. 500,000 soldiers were killed in the war.

1. Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие вопросы:

 

1. Who earns the most?

2. Why do Tesco’s employ older people?

3. How long has Cathy been flying balloons?

4.What is Terry’s philosophy on life?

 

Tom Hopperton is one of 1,200 over-65s working for the supermarket, Tesco. He’s been working there for fifteen months. Before that he was a plumber for thirty years.

Tom skates about five miles a day around the store fetching things for customers who realize that they’ve forgotten something only when they’ve reached the checkout till. He earns 4.50 pounds an hour.

“ I just love the job. I help the customers, so they’re usually very nice to me. I’ve always liked meeting people. And it keeps me fit. I can’t sit at home doing nothing. I’d just die. I have to keep busy. Time goes really quickly. Every day is different. “

Tesco’s made the decision to employ people of all ages. It sees the advantages of older workers who are more calm authoritative when they are dealing with customers.

“ When I saw this job advertised, I didn’t believe they’d give it to me, “ says Tom. “ I went in to see them because I thought they would be put off by my age if I just phoned. I wanted them to see that I am very lively for my age.”

For 25 years Terry Cemm was a policeman, but for the last seventeen years he has been walking up and down five miles of beach every day, looking for things that might be useful to someone. Terry’s a beachcomber.

Nearly everything in his cottage has come from the sea – chairs, tables, even tins of food. What’s the most unusual thing he has ever found? “ A barrel of beer just before Christmas. That was nice, “ he remembers. He finds lots of bottles with messages in them, mainly from children. They all get a reply if there is an address in the bottle. Shoes? “ If you find one, you’ll find the other the next week,” he says.

But does he really make a living? “Half a living,” he replies. I barter with a lot of things I find, and I have my police pension. But I don’t actually need money. My life is rich in variety.”

Terry seems to be a very happy man. “You have to find a way to live a simple, honest life. People spend all their lives chasing things they don’t really need. There’s so much waste.”

“Some people say I’m mad,” says Terry. “But there are a lot more who’d like to do what I do.” Look at me. I’ve got everything that I could possibly want.”

Cathy Moorhead has only ever had one job. She has never wanted to do anything but be in a hot air balloon, going where the wind takes her, listening to the birds, and watching deer and small animals below her.

And she gets paid for it, about 25,000 pounds a year. “I’ve been flying balloons since I was 10, and I have done it professionally for twelve years. I fly between 10 and 20 passengers in different balloons.” The flights usually last an hour, and they go early in the morning or just before sunset. “The trips are always mystery tours,” she says. “I never know where we’re going to land.”

She starts work about 6 a.m., and works anything from 15 hours a day to nothing, if the weather is bad. “We can’t fly if it’s too windy, if visibility is poor, or if it’s raining. The balloon gets too heavy and the passengers get wet.” What’s the best thing about the job? “The job itself. I love being out in the countryside and I hate routines. So this is heaven for me.”

JOINT VENTURES

1. One of the latest trends in business is for two or more corporations (often from different countries) to form strategic alliances to accomplish some objectives. A joint venture, then, is an effort of two or more business firms to capture new markets through cooperation and shared investment risk. This enables world markets to benefit from the expertise of all nations business people working together.

2. For example, “GM” (“General Motors”) joined with “Toyota” to assemble “Geo Prisms” and “Toyota Corollas” in Fremont, California. Such agreements are known as joint ventures or strategic alliances, and are taking place all over the world.

3. In other areas, McDonald’s formed a net of joined ventures in many countries of the world to franchise fast-food restaurants. “Walt Disney Productions” and “Oriental Land” in Japan created Tokyo Disneyland, a theme park much like the Disney parks in America.

4. A joint venture has a limited liability. It should be self-supported and self-financing. In our country, joint ventures offer foreign investors direct access to the Russian market. It may be set up in any branch of economy: agriculture, industry, trade, construction, service sector, etc.

5. A joint venture becomes a juridical person after it has been registered with the Ministry of Finance. The foundation documents and the Feasibility Study are the most important documents for the application procedure.

6. The foundation documents include the Agreement between the partners on the establishment of a joint venture and the Charter Statute of a joint venture. These documents outline the legal status of a joint venture, the funds raised and some other aspects. The Feasibility Study is prepared by the partners involved. It covers the objective of a company, the working capital, the product to be manufactured, the marketing possibilities, the technical back-up of a project.

7. Only after registration the company may open a bank account and conclude agreements and contracts in its own name.

STARTING-UP FINANCING

 

1. The young businessman must find sources of money that will last until revenue begins to exceed cash outflows. He must be creative in finding start-up funding. New small businesses can start with the businessman’s own assets. On top of that, start-up financing may come from friends and relatives. The larger businesses can obtain funds from venture capital investors.

2. One of the personal assets the businessman can use to raise funds for the business is his home. The value of the home that the owner has paid for is called the owner’s equity in the home. By pledging this equity, the homeowner can obtain a second mortgage or a home equity loan.

3. A businessman can find another source of start-up financing by life insurance policy. Many policies build up cash surrender value – the money that the policy holder can borrow at a low interest rate.

4. Those who need more funds can obtain a variable rate installment loan. it is a personal loan with an interest rate tied to the prime rate or some other index. When the index changes, the rate changes in the same direction.

5. Some good sources of start-up funds are family members and friends. Many people can afford to lend at a low interest rate. The lender can share ownership of the business or can become a partner or shareholder in a corporation.

6. In some cases, new companies can obtain cash from venture capital firms. These financial intermediaries specialize in funding ventures with good promise and invest in businesses, which generate high profits within five years. Initially venture capital firms invested in high-tech industries, but now other branches enjoy this kind of financial aid, especially those working in the health-care field. The venture capital firms provide seed money to start a new company, funds to help the venture grow and gain the market and money to buy out a business.

 

3. Письменно ответьте на следующие вопросы к тексту.

1. What can larger businesses obtain start-up funds from?

2. How can a homeowner obtain a second mortgage?
