问题     The market is a concept. If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbor and some to the manager of the local supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are being directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them.
    If you take care of a sick person to earn money, yon are producing for the market. If your father is a steelworker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or service for the market.
    When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. You may spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas stations, and restaurants. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying your labor in the labor market.
    The market may seem to be something abstract. But for each person or businessman who is making and selling something, it’s very real. If nobody buys your tomatoes, it won’t be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something. It’s telling you that you are using energies and resources in doing something the market doesn’t want you to do. [br] All of the following acts are producing for the market EXCEPT______.
选项 A、working in a bank
B、printing a book
C、attending a night school
D、growing beans for sale
答案 C
解析 本题可以通过排除法找到答案。从文中第一段、第二段我们知道，当你为出卖的目的而生产产品或提供服务时，你的行为就是为市场制造产品。B“印刷一本书”和D“种豆出售”都是为了出卖产品而进行的劳动，故可排除；选项A“在银行工作”是为市场提供服务，故可排除。本题的正确答案应为C“参加夜校学习”。当然我们也可以通过推断法确定本题答案。根据本文对市场的解释，参加夜校学习既不是为市场提供产品的劳动又不是为市场提供的服务。所以答案为C。
