[单项选择]Let us assume, for the moment, that labor is not prepared to work for a lower money-wage and that a reduction in the existing level of money-wages would lead, through strikes or otherwise, to a withdrawal from the labor market of labor which is now employed. Does it follow from this that the existing level of real wages accurately measures the marginal disutility of labor Not necessarily. For, although a reduction in the existing money-wage would lead to a withdrawal of labor, it does not follow that a fall in the value of the existing money-wage in terms of wage-goods would do so, if it were due to a rise in the price of the latter. In other words, it may be the case that within a certain range the demand of labor is for a minimum money-wage and not for a minimum real wage.

He taught himself a little mathematics, but he could read no language save his own, and can have had only the faintest acquaintance with European history or with any branch of philosophy.
The want of regular education was not made up for by the persons among whom his lot was cast. Till he was a grown man, he never moved in any society from w
A. was illiterate
B. was never educated
C. was educated very late
D. behaved rudely when he was young
[填空题]Let us see how dictionaries are made and how editors arrive at definitions. The task of writing a dictionary begins with the reading of vast amounts of the
(36) of the period or the subject that the dictionary is to cover. As editors read, they copy on cards every interesting or rare word, every unusual or
(37) occurrence of a common word, a large number of common words in their ordinary uses, and also the sentences in which each of these words appears, thus:
Pail
The daily pails bring home increase of milk.
Keats, Endymion
The
