tuscan Questions 36 to 40 are bad on the following passage:
The relationship between the home and market economies has gone through two distinct stages. Early industrialization began the process of transferring some production process (e.g. cloth making, wing and canning foods) from the home to the marketplace. Although the home economy could still produce the goods, the process were laborious (费力的) and the market economy was usually more efficient. Soon, the more important cond stage was evident — the marketplace began producing goods and rvices that had never been produced by the home economy, and the home economy was unable to produce them (e.g. electricity and electrical appliances, the automobile, advanced education, sophisticated medical care).
