单选题I work as an office assistant in a small but growing garden equipment manufacturing company in California. A few months ago, my boss gave me the job of writing some sales letters which would be sent to the existing customers of our company. The objective was to get some of our existing customers to purchase a new product that our company had just launched. Now, I had never written sales letters before in my life and had no idea of how to writ even the first word. And even if I ended up writing a few lines, because I was so inexperience, chances were that the sales letters and business letters, would bomb completely and would hardly generate any sales for our company. So, in order to learn how to create more effective sales letter I went to the Internet and looked up a few sites which were selling samples, templates and examples of sales letters that claimed would "increase sales by 10 000% ". Because they weren't too expensive, I bought 2 such packages. Big mistake. I found that the samples and templates of the sales letters and business letters included in them looked so cheap that there was no way. I was going to send them to our customers. Even I would have done a better job of writing sales letters! So I searched some more, and came across a site belonging to a person living in Maryland called Yanik Silver. He too was selling some templates and samples of sales letters and business letters. After having been duped with 2 such packages, I was naturally suspicious. I read through his site and found that he was offering a money back guarantee. While that made me feel a bit more comfortable, I first had to determine whether this person would be around to honor the guarantee should I want to return the package. So I sent an email to him(just to test whether he replies to customers' emails)and I got a reply from him within 4 hours. I also saw a comment in his site by one of his customers who had actually got a refund from him as soon as he had asked for the refund. Feeling more comfortable, I decided to go ahead and buy the package that he was selling. Well, I was blown away! The samples, examples and templates of the sales letters and business letters included in his package were precisely the ones that I was looking for. And they were far, far better than any of the templates included in the 2 other packages I had bought. I quickly customized one of the sales letter templates to fit my needs, had it approved by my boss, and sent them over to our customers. Within 2 weeks from the time that I sent out the letter, about 36% of the customers who received the letter ended up buying our new product. You could say that my boss was impressed with what I had done! Since then, I have written quite a few sales letters for our company(simply by customizing the templates included in Yank's package)and all of them have generated excellent sales for us. So, if you want to learn how to write sales letters that get the sale, I highly recommend Yanik's package.

单选题{{B}}Passage Two{{/B}}
In a perfectly free and open market
economy, the type of employer—government or private—should have little or no
impact on the earnings differentials between women and men. However, if there is
discrimination against one sex, it is unlikely that the degree of discrimination
by government and private employers will be the same. Differences in the degree
of discrimination would result in earnings differentials associated with the
type of employer. Given the nature of government and private employers, it seems
most likely that discrimination by private employers would be greater. Thus, one
would expect that, if women are being discriminated against, government
employment would have a positive effect on women's earnings as compared with
their earnings from private employment. The results of a study by Fuchs support
this assumption. Fuchs' results suggest that the earnings of women in an
industry composed entirely of government employees would be 14.6 percent greater
than the earnings of women in an industry composed exclusively of private
employees, other things being equal. In addition, both Fuchs and
Sanborn have suggested that the effect of discrimination by consumers on the
earnings of self-employed women may be greater than the effect of either
government or private employer discrimination on the earnings of women
employees. To test this hypothesis, Brown selected a large sample of white male
and female workers from the 1970 census and divided them into three categories:
private employees, government employees, and self-employed. (Black workers were
excluded from the sample to avoid picking up earnings differentials that were
the result of racial disparities.) Brown's research design controlled for
education, labor-force participation, mobility, motivation, and age in order to
eliminate these factors as explanations of the study's results. Brown's results
suggest that men and women are not treated the came by employers and consumers.
For men, self-employment is the highest earnings category, with private
employment next, and government lowest. For women, this order is
reversed. One can infer from Brown's results that consumers
discriminate against self-employed women. In addition, self-employed women may
have more difficulty than men in getting good employees and may encounter
discrimination from suppliers and from financial institutions.
Brown's results are clearly consistent with Fuchs' argument that
discrimination by consumers has a greater impact on the earnings of women than
does discrimination by either government or private employers. Also, the fact
the women do better working for government than for private employers implies
that private employers are discriminating against women. The results do not
prove that government does not discriminate against women. They do, however,
demonstrate that if government is discriminating against women, its
discriminating is not having as much effect on women's earnings as is
discrimination in the private sector.
