听力原文： Some banks offer other types of loans repayable by monthly installments, such as business development loans, house improvement loans, and farm development loans. These may be either secured or unsecured. Secured loans attract a slightly lower rate of interest than unsecured loans. Some banks offer revolving credit schemes.

Secondly, as his repayments reduce his indebtedness, he can "top up" his loan by borrowing more, provided that the total debt outstanding does not exceed his agreed credit limit. In 1967 some banks introduced a new form. of account called a "budget account". The object is to allow personal customers to spread the incidence of normal personal and household expenditure.

问答题◆Topic 2: Does blacklisting student loan defaulters help repayments to banks? News report: Between 2005 and 2007, the China Development Bank offered 1.66 billion yuan worth of loans to 243,000 students from poor families in central China’s Henan Province. Last May, the Bank and the Henan Provincial Education Department jointly issued an ultimatum requiring 223 college graduates to pay off the interest on their student loan within 30 days. Nevertheless, the students failed to repay the debts as required. Now the colleges and banks cannot contact these students after their graduation as they have not notified banks of their changes of address. It is in this situation that the China Development Bank and the Education Department decided to publish the personal information of these students in accordance with relevant regulations concerning student loans. Questions for reference: 1. Should the personal information of these students be published or not? Give your reasons. 2. How should the student loan system be improved and perfected? 3. What are the possible consequences that might follow if the personal information of such students are published?正确答案： 【参考答案】
My name is...My registration number is...Today I will talk about the question…Does blacklisting student loan defaulters help repayments to banks?
Here is the thing: The students have failed to repay the debts as required by banks and they are now out of contact after their graduation as they have not notified banks of their changes of addresses. Therefore some banks have decided to publish the personal information of these students in accordance with relevant regulations concerning student loans. As a consequence, those who fail to contact their schools and banks in time will have their bad credit record included in the central bank’s personal credit information database, which will clearly place a black mark on these students’ future lives and careers.
This question claims for more comprehensive consideration. Here I want to point out that many people have shown their sympathy for these students. As for students who depend on loans for completing college education, they sometimes have a sense of inferiority and often face some kind of psychological pressure. Faced with the tight employment situation, they are already becoming worried whether they can repay education loans. Now, banks’ exposure of students defaulting on education loans will undoubtedly cast a bigger shadow on them. The exposure of their “bad credit record” would make it difficult for them to find a job after graduation. Worse still, the exposure may even deprive an already employed student of a job, further harming his ability to pay off the loan. In other words, to expose their personal information will often damage students’ reputations and may well deprive many students of valuable future jobs and promotion opportunities, putting them in an even more difficult financial position. One of the ways to deal with loan defaulters is to go to court, file litigation against them, and settle the issue through legal means. On the other hand, banks and education authorities could take further measures and improve the loan system so as to avoid the occurrence of defaulting on payment of education loans.解析： 暂无解析 -
