Behind the traffic noise and modern?day confusion on Stoney Creek Road in Bexley lies a small but amazing piece of history.Just a century ago，Mr Harold Chapman Snr.founded Sydney’s Famous Original Doll Hospital and，although the Hospital has relocated several times，you cannot help but get a sense of days gone by when you walk through the doors.

In 1913 Sydney’s first Doll Hospital was opened in Beamish Street.Campsie by Mr Harold Chapman Snr as part of his General Store，all beginning from a simple shipping accident.Harold’s brother was in the business of importing dolls from Japan and during the shipping process the rubber bands holding the dolls together would go rotten and it was Harold who found a way to repair them.From such a small beginning grew quite a successful business as demand for doll repairs increased.

The business was taken over in the 1930’s by Harold’s son，also Harold Chapman who relocated the Doll Hospital to Her Majesty’s Arcade in Sydney where the business expanded.The real boom came in 1939 with World War Ⅱ and the extreme restrictions on production and import.Suddenly new dolls were no longer an option so little children had to have their “best friends” lovingly repaired.

In 1968 the Doll Hospital moved to its present location.It is now run by Mr Geoff Chapman，Harold Jnr’s son.The Hospital is not only in its third generation of owners，but also its third generation of “doctors”，the skills and knowledge being passed down through the family of repairers.

Flipping through the “Before and After” photo album，you can see just how many wonderful repairs have been carried out and you can just imagine the stories behind them.It is estimated that the Doll Hospital has treated over 2.5 million “patients” so far—that’s a lot of childhood memories revived!

However wealthy we may be, we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want. Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost, which simply refers to whether someone's time or money could be better spent on something else.

Every hour of our time has a value. For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film. Each of these options has a different opportunity cost—namely, what they cost us in missed opportunities.

Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium. Why not, you might reason, watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends? This—the alternative use of your cash and time—is the opportunity cost.

For economists, every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo—in terms of money and enjoyment—in order to take it up. By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on, you ought to be able to make better-informed, more reasonable decisions. Consider that most famous economic rule of all: there's no such thing as a free lunch. Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free, the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.

Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging: imagine spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable. Yet, in a sense it's human nature to do precisely that—we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.

In the business world, a popular phrase is "value for money." People want their cash to go as far as possible. However, another is fast obtaining an advantage: "value for time." The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something, so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time. By readmg this passage you are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities, such as sleeping and eating. In return, however, this passage will help you to think like an economist, closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.

1.According to the passage, the concept of "opportunity cost" is applied to .

A. making more money B. taking more opportunities

C. reducing missed opportunities D. weighing the choice of opportunities

2.Hie "leftover ... time" in Paragraph 3 probably refers to the time .

A. spared for watching the match at home

B. taken to have dinner with friends

C. spent on the way to and from the match

D. saved from not going to watch the match

3.What are forgone opportunities?

A. Opportunities you forget in decision-making.

B. Opportunities you give up for better ones.

C. Opportunities you miss accidentally.

D. Opportunities you make up for.
