　　News Item Three

　　It is being called Ireland's exit from the emergency assistance. If all goes to plan, Ireland will receive no more financial assistance. (5) It does not mean that the money has been paid off—that will take until 2042.

　　Ireland will still need to borrow—and all the signs are that it will be able to do so in the financial markets at an affordable cost. The country's economy has shown signs of stabilization. It has grown, though unusually, and unemployment is down from its highs. (6) But living standards have been hit—the economy is still 9% smaller than it was six years ago.

　　This is an important stage in the Euro zone's financial repair effort. (7) It certainly helps that the recession in the Euro zone has ended—that the economy of the region as a whole has started to grow again. But it is still vulnerable growth. Europe needs stronger performance to generate the tax revenue that could really help struggling governments get control of their borrowing needs.

　　5.What do we learn about Ireland from the news report?

　　6.What's said about Ireland's economy compared with that of 6 years ago?

　　7.What contributes to the Euro zone's financial repair according to the news?
