And this main question for the poor of England—for the poor of all countries—is wholly omitted in every writing on the subject of wealth. Even by the laborers themselves, the operation of capital is regarded only in its effect on their immediate interests, never in the far more terrific power of its appointment of the kind and the object of labor. It matters little, ultimately, how much a laborer is paid for making anything, but it matters fearfully what the thing is which he is compelled to make. If his labor is so ordered as to produce food, fresh air, and fresh water, no matter that his wages are low, the food and the fresh air and water will be at last there, and he will at last get them. But if he is paid to destroy food and fresh air, or to produce iron bars instead of them, the food and air will finally not be there, and he will not get them, to his great and final inconvenience. So that, conclusively, in political as in household economy, the great question is not so much what money you have in your pocket, as what you will buy with it and do with it.
The author gives the example of a tollgate in the first paragraph to indicate that
A．it is an act of robbery.

C．it will break the law.
D．it can make people rich.
Only months ago, the idea that George W Bush would publicly lambaste America's cooperate bosses was laughable. As a candidate, born on the wave of a decade-long economic boom and an unprecedented 18-year bull market, he cashed in on American's love affair with corporate success. But things are different now. The stock market bubble has burst and, despite signs of economic recovery. Wall Street seems to be sunk in gloom. A string of scandals at some of America's most high-flying firms--including Enron, Xerox. Tyco, Global Crossing and most recently, World Com？？has radically changed the public mood.
As political pressure for reform. increases, so too does the heat on Mr Bush. Is the businessman's president really prepared to take business on and push hard for reform？ Despite the set jaw and aggrieved tone in New York. Probably not. Mr. Bush thinks the current crisis stems from a few bad-apple chief executives rather than the system as a whole. Hence he focus on tough penalties for corrupt businessmen and his plea for higher ethical standards. The president announced the creation of a financial-crimes SWAT team, at the Justice Department to root out corporate fraud, and wants to double the maximum prison sentence for financial fraud from five to ten years. But he offered few concrete suggestions for systemic reform. little mention of changes to strengthen shareholders' rights, not even an endorsement of the Senate corporate-reform. bill.
There are few signs yet that cleaning up corporate America is an issue that animates the voters. Polls show that Americans have little faith in their business leaders, but politicians do not seem to be suffering as a result. Mr. Bush's approval ratings have fallen from their sky-highs, but they are still very strong.
The president, therefore, need do no more than talk tough. This alone will convince ordinary Americans that he is on top of the issue. As the economy rebounds and public outage subsides, the clamor for change will be quieter. Democratic attacks will fizzle, and far-reaching reform. bills will be watered down before they become law. Politically, the gamble makes sense. Unfortunately for American capitalism, a great opportunity will be missed.
We can infer from the third paragraph that Mr. Bush______.
A．didn't intend to take business on and push hard for reform
B．did not do anything at all for the presence of the current situation
C．took shareholders' right into account, but he didn't approve reform. bill
D．took some measures to pave the way for the reform

There he was America's first President with a MBA, the man who loves to boast about his business back ground, whose presidential campaign raised unprecedented sums from corporate wallets and whose cabinet is stuffed with chief executives. But he said fiercely, by executives "breaching trust and abusing power". It was time for "a new ethic of personal responsibility in the business community". He was going to "end the days of cooking the books, shading the truth and breaking our laws".

The same pressure influences judges, who are often more lenient with defendants who plead guilty than with those convicted after trial. Legal purists find this discrimination intolerable, for no one should be penalized for exercising his constitutional right to a trial. Yet the practice occurs in many courts, and the consequence is that au innocent defendant can be victimized. The report of the National Advisory Commission ob served, "An innocent defendant might be persuaded that the harsher sentence he must face if he is tumble to prove his innocence at trial. It means that it is to his best interests to plead guilty, despite his innocence."
Another problem with plea bargain is that in the rush of a big-city criminal-justice system, a defendant is likely to see a lawyer from the public defender’s or legal aid office for only a few mutes before appearing in court. With such brief contact, the lawyer may have little notion of whether the client is guilty or not, and is quite likely to present the plea bargain as the most desirable alternative. A survey in 1972 of 3,400 criminal justice practitioners in four states showed that 38 percent thought it probable that defense lawyers pressure clients into entering pleas which the clients regard as unsatisfactory.
Plea bargaining also encourages widespread cynicism toward the entire criminal-justice system, among defendants, the public and crime victims. Moreover, the plea-bargaining system encourages prosecutors to "overcharge"--leveling more serious charges than the crimes warrant--in order to enhance their bargaining power.
