解析:
录音中指出美国的价格并非无限止地上涨,之后又提到“But other tell-tale signs suggest interest rates are unnaturally low”,可知美国的利率非常低,因此题干表述有误。
【录音原文】
Prices in America are not rising without any limit. Perhaps, then, the federal funds rate is not as far below the natural rate as the original Taylor rule would imply. But other tell-tale signs suggest interest rates are unnaturally low.

  • 第11题:

    问答题
    As a rule, saving is good. It helps individuals afford big-ticket items(a house, college tuition, etc.),protect against emergencies and prepare for retirement. For societies, it provides funds for investments in new factories, technologies and businesses. In economics textbooks, a country’s savings usually stay with in its borders. Also, savings automatically balance with new investment, mainly through interest rates and stock prices. If, for example, people want to save more than businesses want to invest, interest rates should drop.That should encourage investment and discourage saving.

    正确答案:
    一般来说,储蓄是件好事。储蓄可以使个人支付得起大的开支(比如购买房子、交大学学费等)、应付紧急情况并为以后退休做好准备。对社会而言,储蓄可以提供建设新工厂、开发新技术和开拓新业务所需要的资金。在经济学的教科书里,一个国家的储蓄通常留在本国。而且储蓄和新的投资会通过利率和股市价格的变动自动实现平衡。比如,当人们想存的钱超过企业想要投资的钱时,利率就会下降。这样会鼓励投资而不鼓励储蓄。

    【录音原文】
    In America, many experts believe that dubious patents abound, such as the notorious one for a “sealed crustless sandwich”. Of the few patents that are reexamined by the Patent and Trademark Office itself, often after complaints from others, most are invalidated or their claims clipped down. The number of duplicate claims among patents is far too high. What happens in America matters globally, since it is the world’s leading patent office, approving about 170,000 patents each year, half of which are granted to foreign applicants.
