[简答题]Bothepha, Gorata and Onneile formed a partnership six years ago, although Bothepha was a sleeping partner and never had anything to do with running the business. Two years ago the partnership employed Tumelo as its manager and last year Gorata retired from the partnership. Onneile subsequently has left much of the day-to-day work to Tumelo who has let it be known generally that he has become a partner, although he has not. In May of this year Tumelo entered into two large contracts. The first one was with a longstanding customer, Robert, who had dealt with the partnership for some five years. The second contract was with a new customer, Simon. Both believed Tumelo’s claim that he was a partner in the business. Both contracts have gone badly wrong leaving the partnership still owing a total of P900,000 to both Robert and Simon. Unfortunately the business assets will only cover the first P450,000 of the total debt.
Required:
Explain the potential liabilities of Bothepha, Gorata, Onne
[单项选择]New data released today from the Partnership for a Drug Free America suggest that not only are girls now drinking more than boys, they turn to drugs and alcohol for more serious reasons as well. The report, which analyzed results from the 2009 Partnership Attitude Tracking Study (PATS), a survey of teen attitudes and behaviors, shows that the number of middle-and high-school girls who say they drink has increased by 11 percent in the past year. Boys have stayed at about the same level, hovering around 52 percent.
These numbers are more indicative of a long-term trend than a sudden uptick. In 2005 the rate of girls who had used alcohol in the past year as surveyed by the partnership hit 57 percent, only to fall back to 55 percent in 2007 and 53 percent in 2008. (During that same time, boys continued to fall within a couple of percentage points of 50 percent, but the changes were not statistically significant. ) These aren’t the only data to note issues involving girls and drin A.
