Write 10 questions ( 5 types) to the following text

In general, contracts may be oral or written. They may even be implied from conduct. In every day’s life most contracts are oral. Many of contracts are made by telephone. Some contracts are made and carried out in a single face-to-face conversation. For example, in the sale or purchase of goods, payment for services the agreement is made. A person may take a job, rent an apartment, and enter many other business agreements without the formality of writing a contract. Sometimes conduct alone is sufficient. For example, a person may stop a bus, board it, deposit the proper coins, and later get off. No words are spoken or written by either passenger or driver, yet there is a valid contract.There are, however, certain important kinds of contracts which will not be enforced in court unless some properly signed writing proves their existence.

Even when a written contract is not required by law, it is often wise to put the agreement in writing and have a signed copy for each party. This is particularly true if the agreement is complex and contains many details, which could lead to later misunderstandings. It also is important when large sums of money or long periods of time are involved. In such cases, it is advantageous for both parties to express their intentions with reasonable precision in written form. In this way, the agreement can be easily referred to or readily proved if necessary. The chance of later confusion or disagreement is greatly reduced. Neither party can effectively deny having agreed to particular terms. Also, the process of putting ideas into writing encourages the parties to anticipate and provide for problems that could arise later. It is usually easier to settle such matters before either party signs and while both parties are inclined to compromise in order to conclude the agreement. Later, each party tends to demand strict performance of the terms.
