Sir-
You state on February 13th that New Mexico has "few natural resources ",... ...example...In 1991 New Mexico ranked fourth in the United States in production of natural gas , seventh in oil and tenth in non-fuel minerals ...8...Non-fuel minerals contributed about $ 1 billion and coal $ 509 million.
Taxes from production of fuels and minerals, and lease payments on state lands have been set aside by legislative acts to endow two permanent funds worth about $ 5.65 billion, ...9 ...In addition, during fiscal year 1991 , payments to New Mexico from taxes on federal lands were S 108 million ,all earmarked for public education.
...10 ...About $566 million came from taxes and permanent-fund earnings attributable to oil and gas production....11 ...Tourism is an important industry in New Mexico, yet its economic impact on the public sector is dwarfed by that of mineral production.
New Mexico came through the recent recession in much better shape than most other states.It does not have a deficit....12...States that rely primarily on a sales tax or on an income tax have big problems during economic downturns. Income growth per head in New Mexico averaged 6.1/00 in the year to October 1992-one of the fastest growth rates in the United States.
Charles Chapin
Example :C
A.It has a broadly based tax structure an important point.
B.In 1992 it produced more oil than Colorado and Kansas combined.
C.However, the extractive mineral industry in New Mexico is one of the state’s strongest economic forces.
D.During fiscal year 1992 New Mexico raised permanent funds worth about $6.1 billion.
E.the combined value of oil and gas production was $ 2.8 billion.
F.Some 16, 000 employees work in the extractive industries and their wages are among the highest of any major industry.
G.the $39 million earned by these funds in 1991 was used to finance education and other public services.
H.Only S 25 million came from agricultural taxes.
I.New Mexico’s extractive mineral industries contribute about a third of the state’s $ 1.9 billion general-fund income in fiscal year 1991.

Question 46
(Sample for reference)
Dear Mr.Max Remington ,
As our company is purchasing a set of equipment ,a lot of materials -have to be translated, which is impossible to do within four months.Could you advertise for two experienced translators in the newspapers? It is urgent.
PART TWO
Question 47
(Sample for reference)
Near the end of 1994, people suddenly become "rich’’, buying a lot of things.We have received the report that the real hourly wages of workers become even less ,so they do not have enough money to buy so many things.Although the employment is rising towards the end of 1994 ,the growth is very slow.Therefore ,not many people find jobs to earn enough money to buy goods.Then where does the big consumer confidence come from? We have discovered that people overspend with various credit cards ,buying goods.And they are not worried about returning the borrowed money.This it is our turn to be concerned about this kind of consumer confidence.

MEMORANDUM
To: Filma Williams ,school of Architecture
From : Ram S. Johnson ,Physical Plant Operations
Subject : Air-conditioning Installation Costs for East Hall.
Date : 4.4.94
As you requested in your memo of March 15, we have studied the costs of installing air conditioning for the seven offices and two studio classrooms in Eest Hall ...example...
Office and Classroom installation
Estimates were obtained from three contractors on the costs of covering the offices and classrooms ...8...The work would take about three weeks.
Because the central unit would be installed on the roof, some noise problems might occur during a four-or five-day period...9... Sheet metal work to build out lest in the classes could be done on weekends , and the overtime labour costs of about $1,500 have been included in the estimates.
Arrangements were not made to do the office space installation on weekends `.. ... 10... ..
Additional Installation
Because a larger installation, including a more powerful central unit, would be necessary to handle the halls and stairways ,an additional $6 , 000 would be required for the equipment. .....11 ... If this additional work were delayed until a later time, a new central unit would be required along with changes in the pipe way ...12...
Summary
the total job for the building would be about $ 35, 000 if done at one time. A two-stage installation would cost about $55 ,000. I can get official bids at your request.
Example: A
A As you suggested, we also sought information on the additional cost of air
conditioning in the entrance halls and stairways.
B All these three were in the $ 20,000 to $25,000 range.
C This later installation would cost about $20,000.
D However, class interruption should be minimal.
E In the same way, each of these three would take at least one month.
F therefore ,the total cost was this $6 ,000 plus another $5,000.
G Labour costs would be an additional S 5 ,000,bringing the total cost of the addition to $11 ,000.
H Each faculty member could expect to have workers in the office for about one day.
I So faculty members can continue their office work as usual.
