In Iceland, individuals and corporations who contribute to charitable organizations are given no publicity, no future entitlements, nor any income tax deductions for their contributions. Evidently, the strong Icelandic sense of charitable giving suffices to allow the continued support of several hundred charitable organizations in that country.
Which of the following can be inferred from the passage above?
1) Any tax structure that would allow deductions for individual or corporate donations would seriously undermine the sense of charitable giving in Iceland.
2) In Iceland, the charitable donors form a closely knit community of their own.
3) In Iceland, charitable giving is regarded more as a privilege than an obligation.
4) In Iceland, there is no public method to determine who gives the most to charitable organizations.
5) In Iceland, there is apparently no need to implement incentives to encourage individuals or corporations to donate to charitable organizations.
Ans: E
But I am NOT convinced with the OE. Because eventhough the icelanders are charitable in general without any incentives, it doesnot necessarily mean that an incentive is not necessary. The incentive can encourage an individual or an organiation that is not charitable now
Thanks,
Sai
