Buses, cars, trucks, rickshaws, motor bikes, delivery vans, etc. move on roads and highways. Trains can move passengers and heavy goods over land for long distances. Ships can move passengers heavy goods over very long distances by sea. Planes can move passengers and lightweight goods by air. Governments use money from taxes to pay for public transport. Sometimes the government gives private companies permission to build roads, railways, airports and so on. Transport is very important in providing the goods and services we need. ren FACT! Most of Pakistan's internal trade of goods is done using roads for transportation. © Means of transportation Entrepreneurship Entrepreneurs are different from most business people. They see problems as opportunities. They like to solve problems by developing new ideas for goods or services. They use their skills and talents to learn from mistakes find practical solutions to solve problems, such as ideas for re-using or recycling rubbish — or even avoiding some types of rubbish. Examples of entrepreneurship include starting a catering business at home to supply meals for office workers; building robots to do dangerous work; selling goods and services online; researching and producing vaccines for the Covid-19 pandemic. example, during the Covid-I9 pandemic in 2019- 2020 some products were in great demand: e.g. hand sanitizers and face masks. So, the prices of these goods rose at first. Then, when producers could make large numbers of them, their prices began to fall. 2. Cost-Push inflation Sometimes prices rise because the cost of producing the goods increases. This might be because the price of oil increases. When oil prices rise, transport Germany saw hyperinflation in 1920. The purchasing power of their currency fell so Low that | or more German Mark became cheaper than firewood. costs rise, so the prices of many goods rise as well. If the government of a country spends more than the country earns, this can cause a sudden high inflation called hyperinflation. Many people then find that they do not have enough money to buy everything they need. Scarcity Scarcity is when there is not enough of any good or service. This might happen after a natural disaster such as a flood, earthquake or pandemic. It causes a greater demand for medical workers, medical equipment and medicines. This leads to a scarcity. Sometimes there can be a scarcity without greater demand. This can happen when the supply of a good or service falls. For example, a scarcity of some foods could be caused by a flood that washes away crops and drowns livestock. © Searcy of eecbrichy is « major problem acess bebebeubuaa Write the ansuvers in your notebook.

Tax collected by the government from the citizens is used to provide public goods and services such as safety (military, police), infrastructure (roads, bridges, ports), transportation (railway), education (government schools, colleges, and universities), and even health care (civil hospitals). Everyone benefits from these goods and services which is why not paying taxes is a serious crime. Inflation The Goods and Service Tax (GST) was first introduced in France. Inflation is when the prices of goods and services rise. This means we can’t buy so much with our money, so we need more money. Reasons for inflation |. Demand-Pull inflation When people want more of any good or service, then the supplier has to put the price up. This is because there will be more people to pay, more equipment to buy, or even extra space such as land or buildings.

Q Different forms of social media and. mass media In 1947 All India Radio had three radio stations in the area that became Pakistan. The Pakistan government took these over. It started the Pakistan Broadcasting Corporation. Most households in the subcontinent had radios. The world’s first public service television broadcasting company was the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation). It began in 1922 but could not broadcast over very Long distances. Very few people in the world had TV sets then. Pakistan Television began broadcasting in 1964. Advertising There have been advertisements since ancient times. They used the media of the time: papyrus (in Ancient Egypt), wood, or stone. Advertising is to tell people about goods or services. One way is to call out to people in towns and cities. To make people listen the advertiser could sing, dance, or entertain people in another way. Radio advertisements also entertain with music and songs. These help to make people remember the advertisement. Radio advertisements could reach many people at the same time. $beebsbe see bh bebe SOoSO A. Write your ansuvers in your nolebook 1.

This helped them to sell radios because people would have programmes to listen to. Newspapers had small radio stations for broadcasting their opinions as well as news. In the 1920s radio technology became much better and more people had radios. Radio companies started to broadcast entertainment programmes and news. There was also some television broadcasting but very few people had TV sets. The Indian Broadcasting Company began radio broadcasting in the subcontinent in 1927. Later the government took over. It named the company AIL India Radio. <= In 1895 the Italian inventor Marconi made the first wireless radio transmitter and receiver. The broadcast went through the air as ‘radio waves’.

With civic freedoms of education, movement and freedom of expression come civic responsibilities like paying taxes, voting and following laws, Common manners and behaviour are socially accepted and expected like greeting people we meet and being respectful of another person’s time. Globalisation is changing the idea of citizenship as more and more people think of themselves as global citizens with more things in common than differences. Online behaviour should be as good as our face to face behaviour. We should check facts before believing or sharing any information. We should respect people's rights, such as their freedom to express themselves both online and otherwise. Peace is possible when people try and find ways to cope with differences through discussion and negotiation. A: Our use and dependence on the Internet has grown over the last decade.

We should accept people as they are and not treat them differently for it. Global citizenship also teaches us to not discriminate and to be tolerant of each other's differences. This way we can work towards building a society that treats everyone equally and actively protects each other's rights. Do this when you face a conflict So, what are you going to do the next time you disagree with your, brother, sister or friend or anyone else?
