In Britain, the market is really the City of London. It is a free market, and it controls most of the flow of savings to investment. On the Continent, either a few banks or government officials direct the flow of funds to suit their economic plans. In Germany the flow is directed by allpowerful banks. In Britain there is more free interplay of market forces and far fewer regulations, rules and ―red tape‖. A French banker summed it up this way: ―On the Continent you can’t do anything unless you’re been told you can。 in England on the other hand you can do everything as long as you haven’t been told not to.‖ There are many basic reasons for these differences. One is that Continental savers tend to prefer gold, cash or shortterm assets. They invest only 10% of their savings in institutions like pension funds or insurance panies. But in Britain 50% of savings goes to them, and they, in turn, invest directly in equity market. A far lower proportion of savings is put in the banks in the form of liquid assets than on the Continent. Continental governments intervene directly or through the banks to collect savings together and transform them into medium or longterm loans for investment. The equity market is largely bypassed. On the Continent economic planning tends to be far more centralized than in Britain. In Britain it is possible to influence decisions affecting the country’ 中國(guó)最大的資 料庫(kù)下載 中國(guó)最大的資料庫(kù)下載 s economy from within the City. It attracts a skilled and highly qualified work force. In France, on the other hand, an intelligent young man who wants a career in finance would probably find the civil service more attractive. In Britain the market, or more accurately, money tends to be regarded as an end in itself. On the Continent it is regarded as a means to an end: investment in the economy. To British eyes continental systems with possible exception of the Dutch seem slow and inefficient. But there is one outstanding fact the City should not overlook. Britain’s growth rates and levels of investment over the last ten years have been much lower than on the Continent. There are many reasons for this, but the City must take part of the blame. If it is accepted that the basic function of a financial market is to supply industry and merce with finance in order to achieve desired rates of growth, it can be said that by concentrating on the market for its own sake the City has tended to fet that basic function. is the best title of the passage? and the Growth Rate. and Finance: Two Different Realities.

As the Lancet put it recently:” When we try to describe faces precisely words fail us, and we resort to identikit (拼臉型圖 ) procedures.” Yet, according to one authority on the subject, we can each probably recognise more than 1,000 faces, the majority of which differ in fine details. This, when one es to think of it, is a tremendous feat, though, curiously enough, relatively little attention has been devoted to the fundamental problems of how and why we acquire this gift for recognizing and remembering faces. Is it an inborn property of our brains, or an acquired one? As so often happens, the experts tend to differ. Thus, some argue that it is inborn, and that there are ―special characteristics about the brain’s ability to distinguish faces‖. In support of this these they note how much b
