31 Home ownership has let US down. For generations, Americans believed that owning

a home was an axiomatic good. Our political leaders hammered home the point. Franklin Roosevelt held that a country of homeowners was "unconquerable. " Homeownership could even, in the words of George H. W. Bush's Secretary of Housing and Urban Development(HUD), Jack Kemp, "save babies, save children, save families and save American. " A house with a front lawn and a picket fence wasn't just a nice place to live or a risk-flee investment; it was a way to transform a nation. No wonder leaders of all

political stripes wanted to spend more than $ 100 billion a year on subsidies and tax breaks to encourage people to buy.

But the dark side of homeownership is now all too apparent: foreclosures and walkaways, neighborhoods plagued by abandoned properties and plummeting home values, a nation in which families have $ 6 trillion less in housing wealth than they did just three years ago. Indeed, easy loaning stimulated by the cult of homeownership may have triggered the financial crisis and led directly to its biggest bailout, that of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Housing remains a drag on the economy. Existing home sales in July dropped 27% from the prior month, exacerbating fears of a double-tip. And all that is just the obvious tale of a housing bubble and what happened when it popped. The real story is deeper and darker still.

汉译英

32 祥子想找个地方坐下，把前前后后细想一遍，哪怕想完只能哭一场呢，也好知道哭的是什么；事情变化得太快了，他的脑子已追赶不上。没有地方给他坐，到处是雪。小茶馆们已都上了门，十点多了；就是开着，他也不肯进去，他愿意找个清静的地方，他知道自己眼眶中转着的泪水随时可以落下来。

既没地方坐一坐，只好慢慢地走吧；可是，上哪儿去呢?这个银白的世界，没有他坐下的地方，也没有他的去处；白茫茫的一片，只有饿着肚子的小鸟，与走投无路的人，知道什么叫做哀叹。
