末日危机作文700字
末日危机
世界黑暗一片,时不时就会下一场酸雨,人们生活在苦难之中。
在第三次世界大战之后,因为核污染,人们的生活发生巨大的变化。
小a是一位小学生,他每天只能待在家里不能出门一步,在家中上网课。他的爸妈是科学家,每天早上五点钟出门,到了深夜才回家。小a自己一个人十分无聊,无趣,决定偷偷出门玩一玩。
小a找出了防护服,给自己全面防护后,带上了净化过的水就出门了。
小a已经有一年没有出门了,对外面新的事物产生了无比的好奇。当他推开门的那一刻,他惊了,以前白色的墙现已变成了黑色,天空也变成乌黑一片,早上10点和深夜一样。小a马上打开防护衣上的手电筒继续向前走去,他一步一步小心翼翼地走下楼梯,来到了一楼,他慢慢向前走着。小区里的树木已经全部死亡,只留下了黑色的树干,路边躺着一些腐化过的尸体和只剩骨头的鸟,世间就如地狱一般。
小a慢慢走出小区,看到了空无一人的街道,关门的店铺和倒下的房子。这一切让小a既失望又伤心,他没有看到美好向往的景象,只看到了死去的地球。
他听见远处不断传来的炮火声,他不知世界为何会变成现在的惨状。
在中途中,遇到了一只变异的狗,那只狗有两个头,六只脚,可怕极了。小a看到之后马上往变异狗的反方向跑去。变异狗追着小a不放,因为穿着防护服,跑了一会就累了,小a的速度变的越来越慢,而狗却跑得越来越快。正当小a马上要被吃掉时,一位防护人员冲了过来把小狗给射杀了。防护人员说:“小孩子,敌人马上就会有炮弹落下了,快走吧!”小a向防护人员行了个礼,流下了眼泪。
整个地球已变成灰黑色,植物已死,动物灭绝,人类存活也寥寥无几。水源已经被污染了。人们想用飞船逃离地球,但是因为始终达不到那样的科技水平,飞船也无法起飞,末日危机在步步逼近。

国金融危机
EVEN by the standards of the worst financial crisis for at least a generation the events of Sunday Spetember14th and the day before were extraordinary. The weekend began with hopes that a deal could be struck with or without government backing to save Lehman Brothers America’s fourth-largest investment bank. It ended with Lehman’s set for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and the bank preparing to wind itself up after those efforts failed. Other vulnerable financial giants scrambled to sell themselves or raise enough capital to stave off a similar fate. Merrill Lynch the third-biggest investment bank sold itself to Bank of America (BofA) an erstwhile Lehman suitor in a $50 billion all-stock deal. American International Group (AIG) brought forward a potentially life-saving overhaul and went cap-in-hand to the Federal Reserve.
即使以至少一代人所经历的最坏的金融危机的标准来看,上周六及周日(9月14日)的事件仍是非同寻常的。那个周末开始于拯救美国第四大投行雷曼兄弟的交易有望达成,无论有或者没有政府的支持。然而却以雷曼兄弟的所有努力均告失败后,根据美国破产法案第11章申请破产保护而告终。其它脆弱的金融巨头同样努力地将自己卖出或是筹集足够的资金以避免与雷曼相同的命运。第三大投行美林以500亿美元全额换股交易将自己卖给了以前雷曼的收购者–美国银行。美国国际集团(AIG)正在提出一个潜在的挽救重整方案,并且毕恭毕敬地照美联储脸色行事。
On Sunday night the situation was still fluid with bankers and regulators working to limit the fallout. They were girding themselves for a dreadful Monday in the markets. Australia’s stockmarket opened sharply lower on Monday (most other Asian bourses were closed). American stock futures were deep in the red too and the dollar weaker. Spreads on risky credit already elevated widened further.
在周日晚上,形势仍然非常不明朗。银行家们和监管者都在努力减小这次事件的辐射影响。他们准备应付非常糟糕的”黑色星期一”。澳大利亚股市周一大幅低开(其它大多数亚洲股票交易所都停牌了)。美国股指期货下跌非常厉害,同时美元汇率也走低。已经很高的信贷风险的息差变得更高。

金融危机
The threat of impending financial disaster concentrates political minds wonderfully. On Thursday a group of Congressional leaders heard Hank Paulson the Treasury secretary and Ben Bernanke the Federal Reserve chairman paint a dire economic scenario if they did not approve a more sweeping remedy for the financial crisis. Student and car loans not just mortgages would all be harder to get. The economy would sink into a severe recession.
迫在眉睫的金融灾难引起了相当多的政治关注。上周四,一群国会领袖听了财长保尔森和美联储主席伯南克所描述的,当国会不通过这项全面拯救金融危机的方案,经济上将会出现的可怕场面。那时,不仅仅是抵押贷款,甚至连助学贷款和买车贷款可能都很难获得。经济将陷入严重的衰退。
For this reason ad hoc responses will still be critical such last week’s federal guarantees for money-market funds Fed loans to banks to purchase asset-backed commercial paper and on Sunday approval of the remaining two big independent investment banks Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs to become Fed-regulated bank holding companies whose investment bank units can now borrow from the Fed on the same terms as other banks.
基于这样的原因,特别的拯救措施仍然非常关键,上周对货币市场的联邦担保,通过美联储购买资产抵押的商业票据对银行的贷款,以及在周日允许剩下的两家大型投行——摩根斯坦利和高盛变为美联储监管银行控股公司,使其投行部分现在也可以向其它银行一样向美联储借钱。
It could be some time before the Treasury is able to purchase mortgages en masse and longer still before that starts to affect the broader financial system and economy. In the meantime the crisis could claim other victims.
财政部完成购买所有的抵押贷款可能还需一段时间,而此举对整个金融系统和经济发挥作用则更需时日。其间,金融危机的危害可能会波及更多的机构。

以金融危机为主题的英语作文
What Caused The Financial Crisis?
I think we can sum up(总结,概括) the cause of our current economic crisis in one word — GREED(贪婪)。
Over the years, mortgage lenders were happy to lend money to people who couldn‘t afford their mortgages。 But they did it anyway because there was nothing to lose。 These lenders were able to charge higher interest rates and make more money on sub-prime loans。 If the borrowers default,they simply seized the house and put it back on the market。
On top of that, they were able to pass the risk off to mortgage insurer or package these mortgages as mortgage-backed securities。 Easy money!and what went wrong with our financial system?
The whole thing was one big scheme。 Everything was great when houses were selling like hot cakes and their values go up every month。 Lenders made it easier to borrow money,and the higher demand drove up house values。 Higher house values means that lenders could lend out even bigger mortgages, and it also gave lenders some protection against foreclosures。
All of this translates into more money for the lenders, insurers, and investors。 Unfortunately, many borrowers got slammed when their adjustable mortgage finally adjusted。 When too many of them couldn‘t afford to make their payments, it causes these lenders to suffer from liquidity issue and to sit on more foreclosures than they could sell。 Mortgage-backed securities became more risky and worth less causing investment firms like Lehman Brothers to suffer。
Moreover,insurers like AIG who insured these bad mortgages also got in trouble。 The scheme (体系,结构)worked well, but it reverses course and is now coming back to hurt everyone with a vengeance。

世界末日倒计时
鸿雁外语六年级 周子博
公元2190年9月9号,由于原子弹的影响,太阳将提前退化为黑洞,并在10小时之后,将太阳周围的一切吸进黑洞之中,世界会变成什么样子,谁也无法预想。
S国发出紧急通知:请各位市民马上前往各个火箭发射地点,带上一切食物和水,火速离开银河系,飞往新的空间。在我播完这段新闻后,也急速驱车赶往老家,去接父母。
大街上,车水马龙的繁华已被人们的惊慌失措取代,不时有撞车事件发生,也无人来清理现场,都急急忙忙地往火箭发射地集合。我在马路上,一个不小心被撞到了一边,汽车是开不了了,即便能开,堵塞的交通也是寸步难行,于是我开始徒步飞奔。在经历9个小时的长途跋涉之后,我终于疲惫不堪地回到了家里,带上父母,急忙奔进自家的小型运载火箭上,可火箭却怎么也启动不了。此时,所有人都离开了地球,无法找人来修。我仔细查看了一会儿,才发现是没有燃料了,我又飞快地赶到能源站,捧出一大块燃料,情急之中,找到一辆破旧的手推车,将燃料运至火箭处,在还有10分钟的时候,我们的火箭终于起飞了。这时,一股空前强大的力量,使我们的飞船随着地球一同被吸了进去。我想,这下完了,我们将成为地球的殉葬品了。
就在这千钧一发的时刻,不知从哪里飞出一颗超行星,撞向黑洞,瞬间,一颗新的太阳诞生了,危机解除了!只见天空中散发出一片耀眼的光芒。人们在经历了10个小时的惊心动魄之后,都陆续回到了地球,曾经美丽的世界又恢复了勃勃生机。
世界末日来临时
某某人名曰某某某,是某某老师的得意弟子,他在看了一本《某某某》后,突然“神经焕发”,阴差阳错地造出了一台“某某某”牌时光机器,可他马上又后悔了,于是他胡乱按了一通,又按了一下“确定”,企图破坏机器,可机器说:“您已设定了时间,现在是世界末日……”
“啊?”他猛然醒悟,自己闯下了大祸!于是他拿来锤子,“哐”一声,时间机器碎了,只听芯片说:“机器已破坏,现在真的是世界末日,倒数5小时……”这时“当!当!”两声,两点了。
为了将功赎过,他马上开始研制“无空气呼吸器”,“嗞——”机器正在切割,第一台“无空气呼吸器”研制成功,它可真不是一般地“小”,足足两头大象那么大。唉!压缩吧!“扑哧”一声,呼吸器就只有一根粉笔那么大了。“当!当!当!”三点了,过去一小时了。什么?过去一小时了?
他有点着急,既然不能让60亿人都有呼吸器了,那么就看看外面的场景吧。哇噻,人们还不知道呢!他们一个个还露着笑容。唉!让他们这样死去也不错,还是去电视台,去告诉他们已经是世界末日了吧!于是他打车来到电视台,刚对电视台主持人说了几句,他们就三拳两脚地把他打了出来。唉!“当!当!当!当!”四点了,我们的生命要Goodbye了。
他回到家,开始沉思,该怎么办呢?不知不觉中,六点半了,就剩下半个小时了,天气的突变已使外面空无一人,天空已经有了几条裂缝了,太阳光异常强烈,这时那堆碎了的机器突然叫了起来:“10、9、8、7……”他大脑突然一亮,是芯片在起作用,于是赶快拿起锤子,朝芯片砸去,“6、5……”“哐!”芯片碎了。“芯片已被破坏,命令解除!”这时“唰”一声,外面天亮了,又恢复了原来的样子。
他长出了一口气,拿起“无空气呼吸器”,刚想把它砸碎,又一想,留着以后再用吧,不一定什么时候又真末日了呢!刚想到这儿,天空中又出现了裂缝,难道……啊?
