Marketing Information
Correct Sales and marketing messages are illegal if they falsely advertise prices,
the performance capability, quality, or the other product characteristics, or deceive
34 the buyer in what any way. A Western Canadian electronics firm was convicted
35 recently of bait-and-switch selling (selling products with deceptive advertising).
36 This practice occurs when a company advertises at a very low price on a
37 product, but the customer has great many difficulty getting the special price.
38 Rather that, the company attempts to sell the customer a similar but
39 higher-priced product or offers a rain check that it will not be honored. This
40 tactic for attracting customers is a form. of deceptive marketing. Furthermore,
41 sellers of services must also be cautious about how the language they use to
42 describe what they will do. Letters, reports, and proposals that they describe
43 services to be performed are interpreted as contracts in courts. Sales and
44 marketing messages must not make claims that cannot be verified, so that
45 language must not promise more than which intended.

A newstudy shows a large gender gap on economic policy among the nations professional economists,a divide similar to the gender divide found in the general public.
"Asa group, we are pro-market," says Ann Marl May, co-author of the study anda University of Nebraska economist. "But women are more likely to acceptgovernment regulation and involvement in economic activity than our malecolleagues. "
"Itsvery puzzling," says free market economist Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. "Not a .day goes by that Idont ask myself why there are so few women economists on the free market side."
A nativeof France, de Rugy supported government intervention (干预) early in her life butchanged her mind after studying economics. "We want many of the samethings as liberals--less poverty, more health care--but have radicallydifferent ideas on how to achieve it. "
IAberaleconomist Dean Baker, co-founder of the Center for Economic Policy andResearch, says male economists have been on the inside of the profession,confirming each others antiregulation views. Women, as outsiders, "aremore likely to think independently or at least see people outside of theeconomics profession as forming their peer group," he says.
Thegender balance in economics is changing. One-third of economics doctorates (博士学位) now go to women."More diversity is needed at the table when pubflc policy isdiscussed," May says.
Economistsdo agree on some things. Female economists agree with men that Europe has toomuch regulation and that Wal-mart is good for society. Male economists agreewith their, female colleagues that military spending is too high.
Thegenders are most divorced from each other on the question of equality forwomen. Male economists overwhelmingly think the wage gap between men and womenis largely the result of indi~fluals skills, experience and voluntary choices.Female economists overwhelmingly disagree by a margin of 4-to-1.
Thebiggest disagreement: 76% of women say faculty opportunities in economics favormen. Male economists point the opposite way: 80% say women are favored or theprocess is neutral.
What is the finding of the new study?
A.The gender divide is a big concern of the general public.
B.Men and women understand economics quite differently.
C.The gap between male and female economists needs to be closed.
D.Male and female economists disagree widely on economic policy,
