When the right person is holding the right job at the right moment,that person’s influence is greatly expanded.That is the position in which Janet Yellen,who is expected to be confirmed as the next chair of the Federal Reserve Bank(FeD.in
January,now finds herself.If you believe,as many do,that unemployment is the major economic and social concern of our
day,then it is no stretch to think Yellen is the most powerful person in the world right now.Throughout the 2008 financial
crisis and the recession and recovery that followed,central banks have taken on the role of stimulators of last resort,holding
up the global economy with vast amounts of money in the form of asset buying.Yellen,previously a Fed vice chair,was one of the principal architects of the Fed's$3.8 trillion money dump.A star economist known for her groundbreaking work on labor
markets,Yellen was a kind of prophetess early on in the crisis for her warnings about the subprime(次级债)meltdown.Now it will be her job to get the Fed and the markets out of the biggest and most unconventional monetary program in history without derailing the fragile recovery.The good news is that Yellen,67,is particularly well suited to meet these challenges.She has a keen understanding of financial markets,an appreciation for their imperfections and a strong belief that human suffering was more related to unemployment than anything else.
Some experts worry that Yellen will be inclined to chase unemployment to the neglect of inflation.
But with wages still relatively flat and the economy increasingly divided between the well-off and the long-term
unemployed,more people worry about the opposite,deflation(通货紧缩)that would aggravate the economy’s problems.
Either way,the incoming Fed chief will have to walk a fine line in slowly ending the stimulus.It must be steady enough to
deflate bubbles and bring markets back down to earth but not so quick that it creates another credit crisis.
Unlike many past Fed leaders,Yellen is not one to buy into the finance industry's argument that it should be left alone to
regulate itself.She knows all along the Fed has been too slack on regulation of finance.Yellen is likely to address the issue
right after she pushes unemployment below 6%,stabilizes markets and makes sure that the recovery is more inclusive anD.robust.As Princeton Professor Alan Blinder says,“She’s smart as a whip,deeply logical,willing to argue but also a good
listener.She can persuade without creating hostility.”All those traits will be useful as the global economy’s new power player
takes on its most annoying problems.
What do many people think is the biggest problem facing Janet Yellen 《》（）
- A.Lack of money
- B.Subprime crisis
- C.Unemployment
- D.Social instability

美丽的小兴安岭
我国东北的小兴安岭，有数不清的红松、白桦、栎树......几百里连成一片，就像绿色的海洋。
春天，树木抽出新的枝条，长出嫩绿的叶子。山上的积雪融化了，雪水汇成小溪，淙淙地流着。溪里涨满了春水。小鹿在溪边散步，它们有的俯下身子喝水，有的侧着脑袋欣赏自己映在水里的影子。
夏天，树木长得葱葱茏茏，密密层层的枝叶把森林封得严严实实的，挡住了人们的视线，遮住了蓝蓝的天空。早晨，雾从山谷里升起来，整个森林浸在乳白色的浓雾里。太阳出来了，千万缕像利剑一样的金光，穿过树梢，照射在工人宿舍门前的草地上。草地上盛开着各种各样的野花，红的、白的、黄的、紫的，真像个美丽的大花坛。
秋天，白桦和栎树的叶子变黄了，松柏显得更苍翠了。秋风吹来，落叶在林间飞舞。这时候，森林向人们献出了酸甜可口的山葡萄，又香又脆的榛子，鲜嫩的蘑菇和木耳，还有人参等名贵药材。
冬天，雪花在空中飞舞。树上积满了白雪。地上的雪厚厚的，又松又软，常常没过膝盖。西北风呼呼地刮过树梢。紫貂和黑熊不得不躲进各自的洞里。紫貂捕到一只野兔当美餐，黑熊只好用舌头舔着自己又肥又厚的脚掌。松鼠靠秋天收藏在树洞里的松子过日子，有时候还到枝头散散步，看看春天是不是快要来临。
小兴安岭一年四季景色诱人，是一座美丽的大花园，也是一座巨大的宝库。
