Section 2: Language use (60 marks)
I. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
Consumers went back to using their credit cards in March to keep spending while student and
new-car loans shot up as the value of outstanding consumer credit jumped at the fastest rate
since late 2001, data from the Federal Reserve showed on Monday.  Total consumer credit
grew by $21.36 billion - more than twice the $9.8 billion rise that Wall Street economists
surveyed by Reuters had forecast. That followed a revised $9.27 billion increase in outstanding
credit in February.
 Analysts expressed some reservations whether the date reliably signaled a real pickup in
demand, something that would normally fuel stronger growth, or just a need to rely more on
credit in an economy generating anemic job growth.
 "The optimistic read is that consumers' improved outlook on the economy and employment
prospects led them to feel comfortable spending on credit, while a more downbeat interpretation
is that credit is needed for consumers to keep up," Nomura Global Economics said in a note
afterward. The March rise in consumer credit was the strongest for any month since November
2001 when it soared by $28 billion. New-car sales and production were a key influence on the
2.2 percent annual rate of economic growth posted during the first three months this year. The
government estimated that about half of that growth came from increased new car production.
