To adjust to these chemicals would require time on the scale that is nature’s; it would require not merely the years of a man’s life but the life of generations. And even this, were it by some miracle possible, would be futile, for the new chemicals come from our laboratories in an endless stream; almost five hundred annually find their way into actual use in the United States alone. The figure is staggering and its implications are not easily grasped—500 new chemicals to which the bodies of men and animals are required somehow to adapt each year, chemicals totally outside the limits of biologic experience.

3 But that’s just the problem. In the opinion of managers from more than 200 British companies, students are spending too much time studying, or worrying about making ends meet, instead of joining clubs and acquiring basic skills such as teamwork and making presentations. The managers also said that they were prepared to leave jobs unfilled rather than appoint graduates who didn’t have the necessary skills to get ahead in the global market.

Related Information:Cultural InformationNormally we think of money as the coins and paper notes that are used as a standard medium of exchange or payment within any particular country. Great Britain has the pound, France has the franc, China has the Y uan, and the United States the dollar. But in alltechnologically advanced societies, there are now many different kinds of money. Wealth is not only measured by the amount of coins and paper notes that we possess but also by various types of assets. Aside from, real estate and other forms of material wealth like paintings or jewelry, some people can also own stocks and bonds. The resources of a company are divided into portions or shares that are issued in the form of transferable certificates called stocks. If a company does well, the profits are divided among stockholders. I f a government or a company wants to borrow money, it can issue bonds or certificates of debt that promise to pay back by a certain date the money borrowed plus interest. The risk factor is much higher in stocks. Bonds provide a safer form of investment but they are less profitable. Both stocks and bonds are bought and sold on the stock market.There have always been moral issues related to money. Some societies regarded lavish spending as morally wrong, while others considered lending money at a high rate of interest as a social crime. Many stories have been written on the miser’s greed for money.
