标题:What the surging gold price says about a dangerous world

Financial fears and geopolitical tremors combine to great effect

正文:Less than a mile from Singapore’s luxurious Changi Airport sits a rather less glamorous business park. Residents of the industrial estate include freight

and logistics firms, as well as the back offices of several banks. One building is a little different, however. Behind a glossy onyx facade, layers of security and imposing steel doors, sits more than $1bn in gold, silver and other treasures. “The Reserve” hosts dozens of private vaults, thousands of and a cavernous storage room where precious metals sit on shelves rising three storeys above the ground.

知识点:luxurious adj.

very comfortable; containing expensive and enjoyable things十分舒适的;奢侈的

a luxurious hotel豪华宾馆

luxurious surroundings豪华舒适的环境
