問題詳情

第二題:翻譯題(英翻中)The U.S. Federal Reserve has just raised its key interest rate by a quarter of a percentage point. The Fed is thecentral bank of the United States and it can influence the U.S. economy. It wants that economy to grow but not sofast that inflation gets out of control. That’s when the prices of things go up and the dollar buys less. Americans’wages have not increased much in recent years. The U.S. employment or jobless rate was at 4.6 percent last month.That’s about where it was before the Great Recession hit in 2007. The government says 180,000 jobs have beencreated each month this year on average, though that’s less than the two previous years. The gross domestic productincreased in the third quarter of the year and inflation rose 1.6 percent in October. One way the Fed can try to slowdown the rise of inflation is by increasing its key interest rate, which it just did. But that affects consumers becauseit makes it more expensive for them to borrow money. Mortgage rates on homes will go up. Car loans will be moreexpensive. Credit card rates increased. On the flip side, savings accounts could start to pay a little more interests. So,those are things to look out for in the months.【25 分】
