Read the text below in order to answer questions 31 to 34.

_____________________________________________________________________________
The European Monetary Union
_____________________________________________________________________________
On Jan. 1, 1999 the European Monetary Union (EMU) will come into full-blown existence with 11 countries adopting a continentwide currency called the euro. Coins and notes will not be available until Jan. 1, 2002. Until that time, one can either use the old currencies or conduct euro transactions electronically, or with checks or plastic cards. In 2002, EMU countries will use only the euro as their legal tender, and the Deutsche mark, French franc, Italian lira et al. will cease to exist.

This new money may finally trigger a Western European economic renaissance. For years Europe has been an economic backwater because of excessive taxes and regulations, onerous labour laws and ludicrously lavish welfare benefits. No wonder there is little high technology in lands so inhospitable to freewheeling, Americanstyle entrepreneurship, or that unemployment there is more than twice ours.

👉  Questão   31 

Which of the items below are positively referred to in the text?

Tax-free interest

_____________________________________________________________________________
Congress is finally making a move toward school choice. The Senate approved a bill in April that would allow family members, charitable groups and employers to put up to $2,000 per child annually into education savings accounts that would earn tax-free interest. Parents could use the funds for expenses related to elementary and secondary schooling, regardless of whether their children were in public, private, religious or home schools. The unused money and interest could later be rolled over and used for college-related expenses. 
We should not squander this opportunity!

Tax Audits 

_____________________________________________________________________________
Although only about one out of every 100 individual tax returns will be audited in 1998, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is very good at selecting returns for audit that will yield additional taxes. Nevertheless, if your return is selected, it does not necessarily mean you will incur any additional tax liability.

If you do not agree with the examiner’s report, you can meet with the examiner’s supervisor to discuss your case further. If you still do not agree, you have the right to appeal the findings through a separate Appeals Office. You can also appeal to the U.S. Tax Court.

a) dishonest.
b) unofficial.
c) questioned.
