How Interest Rates Affect Spending
With every loan, there is a possibility that the borrower will not repay the money. To compensate lenders for that risk, there must be a reward: interest. Interest is the amount of money that lenders earn when they make a loan that the borrower repays, and the interest rate is the percentage of the loan amount that the lender charges to lend money.
The existence of interest allows borrowers to spend money immediately, instead of waiting to save the money to make a purchase. The lower the interest rate, the more willing people are to bonow money to make big purchases ,such as houses or cars. When consumers pay less in interest dhis gives them more money to spend, which can create a chain effect of increased spending throughout the economy. Businesses and fanners also benefit from lower interest rates, as it encourages them to make large equipment purchases due to the low cost of borrowing. This creates a situation where output and productivity increase.
Conversely, higher interest rates mean that consumers dorTl have as much disposable（可支酉己白勺）income and must cut back on spending. When higher interest rates are coupled with increased lending standards, banks make fewer loans. This affects not only consumers, but also businesses and farmers, who cut back on spending for new equipment, thus slowing productivity or reducing the number of employees. The tighter lending standards mean that consumers will cut back on spending, and this will affect many businesses 1 bottom lines・ This will cause the businesses to reduce the number of employees that they have and to hold off on any major equipment purchases.
What is interest?
The amount of money the borrowers earn.
The percentage of the loan amount.
A sum of money repaid by lenders・
A charge made for borrowing money・
What will happen when the interest is low?
Houses and cars will be more expensive・
People will make purchases by saving money.
Big purchases will cost more money.
Spending will be encouraged・
Which of the following can best replace the underlined word "conversely^ in Paragraph 3?
A. Above all.
B • Most importantly.
C • On the contrary.
In fact.
What will be a possible result of the higher interest rate?
More new equipment will be purchased・
Productivity will be increased.
Banks will make more loans・
Some people will lose their jobs・
D
Will Robots Put Us All on the Unemployment Line?
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin is blamed for saying he's “not worried at al严 about robots displacing American workers- Yet he's spot on: Robots will soon launch a productivity boom, leading to improved economic growth, higher wages and a higher standard of living. Just what America needs after a decade dragging along at 2 percent growth.
Scaremongers （危言耸听者） who warn that robots steal jobs are failing to predict the jobs of the future. A hotel worker who makes room-service deliveries today may instead be monitoring or repairing delivery robots. Not to mention the new jobs in every field that will come with a booming economy, predict PricewaterhouseCoopers consultants. Robots are our friends.
And there5s no going backA contrary to the view of Bill Gates. The tech billionaire wants to put the brakes on the next innovation boom. He's suggesting a heavy tax to punish robots in the workplace・ Complete foolishness・
Economists have been complaining about the poor world economy, declaring what's needed is a technological breakthrough・ Well, here it is 一 assuming politicians don't try to kill it.
Robotics has already taken hold in manufacturing, especially the auto industry. These machines are so efficient （高效的）that US factories are producing more with fewer workers on the assembly （装酉己）line. That gain in productivity translates into higher wages for the remaining factory workers and lower prices for consumers・
If President Trump succeeds in bringing auto jobs back to the United States, they won't be the same routine, repeated tasks that assembly line workers had in the pas匸 These new jobs will require knowledge of computer-aided design and other complex engineering issues
・
The same goes for the service field, like supermarket and warehousing. A surprising 94 percent of CEOs using robots say they've increased productivity. The end result: fewer jobs for unskilled workers, though in all possibility more jobs overall as the economy grows, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers. Message to politicians: Focus on workplace readiness. Il beats trying to block technological progress—a vain attempt to protect yesterday^ jobs.
The economy booms when businesses, not politicians, call the shots on technology・ Welcoming robots will create more goods and services, a bigger pie for all to share. Skills training will help every one get a piece of the pie.
Who may agree that robots won't put us all on the unemployment line?
Steven Mnuchin.
Scaremongers.
Bill Gates.
Politicians.
Why are robots widely used in manufacturing?
They are productive.
They are our friends.
Workers will earn more money・
D・ Workers cant do skilled tasks.
What does Price Waterhouse Coopers indicate?
More workers will lose their jobs・
Everybody should be retrained to gain new skills.
C- More jobs will be created due to the growth of economy.
High productivity leads to higher wages for all people・
What's the author^ attitude towards the application of robots?
