Part III. Reading

Directions:

there

are

two

reading

passages

in

this

part.

Each

passage

is

followed

by

four

questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C, and D. choose the

best answer.

A

Public

goods

are

those

commodities

from

whose

enjoyment

nobody

can

be

effectively

excluded

< br>．

Everybody

is

free

to

enjoy

the

benefits

of

these

commodities,

and

one

person

’

s

utilization does not reduce the possibilities of anybody else

’

s enjoying the same good.

Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect

．

A flood control dam is a

public good

．

Once the dam is built, all persons living in the area will benefit not thinking the

respective of their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam

．

The same holds true for

highway signs or aids to navigation

．

Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be

effectively excluded from the utilization of the lighthouse for navigational purposes

．

National

defense is another example

．

Even a person who voted against military expenditures or did not

pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded.
