听力原文:
WORLD stockmarkets are in bear territory. Gold, a haven in times of turmoil, has had its best start to a year in more than three decades. The cost of insurance against bank default has surged. Talk of recession in America is rising, as is the implied probability that the Federal Reserve, which raised rates only in December, will be forced to take them backbelow zero.
难句翻译:
有关美国经济衰退的说法甚嚣尘上,美联储暗示,这将有可能迫使他们把利率降到零以下,尽管去年12月份就有过加息操作
