In the two preceding years, a large number of banks had failed, and fear of lost savings had prompted many depositors to remove their funds from banks. Problems became so serious in the state of Michigan that Governor William A. Comstock was forced to declare a moratorium on all banking activities in the state on February 14, 1933. The panic in Michigan quickly spread to other states, and on March 6, President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared a banking moratorium throughout the United States that left the entire country without banking services. Congress immediately met in a special session to solve the banking crisis and on March 9 passed the Emergency Banking Act of 1933 to assist financially healthy banks to reopen. By March 15, banks controlling 90 percent of the country’s financial reserves were again open for business. The passage states that all the following occurred prior to 1933 EXCEPT that __________. A. many banks went under B. many bank patrons were afraid of losing their deposits C. a lot of money was withdrawn from accounts D. Governor Comstock canceled all banking activities in Michigan The word “moratorium” in line 3 is closest in meaning to which of the following? A. Death B. Murder C. Temporary cessation D. Slow decline The passage indicates that the moratorium declared by Roosevelt affected __________. A. the banks in Michigan B. all the banks in the United States C. only the financially unhealthy banks D. the banks in most of the United States Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. Congress did not give any special priority to the banking situation. B. The Emergency Banking Act helped all banks to reopen. C. Ninety percent of the banks reopened by the middle of March. D. Ten percent of the country’s money was in financially unhealthy banks. Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage? A. Opposing viewpoints of an issue B. A theme followed by an example C. A problem and its causes D. A problem and a solution Part 3: Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each question (10 points, 2 for each correct answer) It is the role of the Federal Reserve, known simply as the Fed, to control the supply of money in the U.S. through its system of twelve regional Federal Reserve Banks, each with its own Federal Reserve District Bank. Many commercial banks belong to the Federal Reserve System and as members must follow the Fed’s reserve requirements, a ruling by the Fed on the percentage of deposits that a member bank must keep either in its own vaults or on deposit at the Fed. If the Fed wants to change the money supply, it can change reserve requirements to member banks; for example, an increase in the percentage of deposits required to be kept on hand would reduce the available money supply. Member banks can also borrow money from the Fed, and an additional way that the Fed can control the money supply is to raise or lower the discount rate, the interest rate at which commercial banks borrow from the Fed. An increase in the discount rate would reduce the funds available to commercial banks and thus shrink the money supply. In addition to using reserve requirements and the discount rate to control the money supply, the Fed has another powerful tool: open-market operations. This passage is mainly about __________. A. the functions of the Federal Reserve B. the organization of the Federal Reserve C. reserve requirements D. the effect of lowering the discount rate According to the passage, the main purpose of the Federal Reserve System is to __________. A. increase reserve requirements B. increase or decrease the amount of money available C. increase the number of Federal Reserve Banks D. increase the money kept on deposit by member banks When the Fed controls the percentage of deposits kept on hand by member banks, it controls __________. A. district banks B. the discount rate C. the reserve requirement D. borrowing by commercial banks The passage implies that a lowering of the discount rate would lead to __________. A. an increase in the money supply B. a decrease in borrowing from the Fed by commercial banks C. a decrease in the money available D. an increase in the reserve requirement The word “shrink” in the passage could best be replaced by __________. A. increase B. inflate C. support D. reduce V. BUSINESS COMMUNICATION (20 points, 2 for each correct answer) Choose the most appropriate question/statement for each situation.
