contents 6 Alan Greenspan 翻译+答案.docx

Alan GreenspanAlan Greenspan was chairman of the Federal Reserve Board and arguably one of the most powerful individuals in the United States. Greenspan had demonstrated a sharp intellect along with an unusual ability to keep his independence while still following the trends of political power in Washington, D.C.He was born in New York City in 1926, son of a stockbroker and a saleswoman. He showed early signs of mathematical genius, yet after high school chose to attend the Julliard School of Music and later played the clarinet ( 单簧管 ) in a traveling swing band in the mid 1940s. Then he abandoned a music career to obtain bachelors and masters degrees in economics from New York University and began doctoral studies at Columbia University. He left Columbia when he ran out of money and took a job later as an economist for the National Industrial Conference Board. In 1977 he eventually got his Ph.D. from New York University.In the 1950s, Greenspan became a - dedicated follower of Ayn Rand, whose philosophy of enlightened selfishness appealed to Greenspan more than the free-market skepticism of John Maynard Keynes and many other economists of his generation. However, Greenspan took a more pragmatic and politically aware route than many of the uncompromising (强硬的)heroes of Rands novels.Greenspan later started a consulting company that offered economic forecasts to large companies and financial institutions, at a time when few corporations had their own professional staff economists. In the 1960s, Greenspan was a director of policy research for Richard Nixon but did not come to Washington until the 1970s, when he became chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors under President Gerald Ford. In this position, Greenspan got his first taste of experience being grilled ( 质询) before angry senators and congressmen. Undoubtedly that was valuable training for parts of his present job.Greenspan returned to private life and resumed his economic consulting practice after the election of President Jimmy Carter. In 1987, he was appointed chairman of the Federal Reserve Board by President Ronald Reagan and had served under both Republican and Democratic administrations.Choose the best answers to the following questions.1.
