Insurance is the sharing of risks.Nearly everyone is exposed to risk of some sort.The house owner,for example,knows that his property can be damaged by fire,the ship owner knows that his vessel may be lost at sea;the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family poorer.On the other hand.not every house is damaged by fire nor every vessel lost at sea.If these persons each put a small sum of money into a pool,there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer losses.In other words.the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the money.This is the basis of insurance.Those who pay the contribution are known as“insured”and those who administer the pool of contributions as“insurers”.
Not all risks can be covered by insurance.Broadly speaking,the ordinary risks of business and speculation cannot be covered.The risk that buyers will not buy goods at the prices offered is not of a kind that can be statistically estimated,and risks can only be insured against if they can be so estimated.
The legal basis of all insurance is the“policy”.This is a printed form of contract.It states that
in return for the regular payment by the insured of a certain sum of money,called the“premium”,which is usually paid every year,the insurer will pay a sum of money or compensation for loss,if the risk actually happens.The wording of policies,particularly in marine insurance,often seems very old—fashioned,but there is a sound reason of this.Over a large number of years,many law cases have been brought to clear up the meanings of doubtful phrases in policies.The law coups have given these phrases a definite and indisputable meaning,and to avoid future disputes the phrases have continued to be used in polices even when they have passed out of normal use in speech.
请回答下列问题。
It seems that the author thinks the insurance is___________.
选项
A、a form of gambling
B、a way of making money quickly
C、useful and necessary
D、old-fashioned
答案
A
解析
推断题。文中第一段指出“Insurance is the sharing of risks.”,即“保险是分担风险”,紧接着说明保险的本质。第二段作者指出“并非所有的风险都可以由保险承保”。由此可知,作者认为保险是有风险的,因此A项“a form of gambling”正确。B、C两项属于无中生有,D项原文有所提及,但是其为“The wording of policies often seems very old—fashioned”,并非“the insurance is old—fashioned”,因此D项错误。故本题选A。
