阅读理解;阅读下列短文,从各小题所给的三个选项中,选出一个最佳*
The world’s big money headache 全球金融风暴
The world has a big headache and it’s caused by money. It began in America last year and it’s traveled around the world helped by the speed of the Internet.
In just a few short months billions and billions of dollars have disappeared. They just vanished (突然不见) into thin air. How can this be? Well, to understand that, you have to understand the idea of “Value”. The “value” of something is what someone is willing to pay for it. That’s easy when it comes to buying a bottle of green tea. You wouldn’t pay more than a few kuai. But what about something like a house?
In America, houses are expensive. People have to get loans (贷款) in order to buy them. To get a loan you have to good job so the lender knows you’re going to pay the money back, but America started making it easier for people to get loans. That meant more people could buy houses. The demand (要求) for houses increased their “value” so their prices went up and people had to get bigger loans to buy them. Of course, many of these people couldn’t afford to pay back the bigger loans. So: the banks couldn’t get their money back, the prices of houses went down and all that “value” disappeared.
Now the banks are out of money and governments around the world have had to step in (*手) and save them.
What does this all mean? Well, with the banks in trouble there is less money to invest (投资) and less money for people to buy things. That means less business, fewer jobs and more unemployment (失业人数). It’s a big headache for everyone and aspirin (阿司匹林) can’t cure it.
