Making Yourself a Good Record
If you are an American and you think you might need to borrow money someday, the best thing to do is start early.
That’ s because just as many employers want to hire only people with experience, banks and other creditors are usually reluctant to lend to those 【C1】______a proven track record of paying back, 【C2】______time, the money they have borrowed.
But if you need experience just to get a start, how do you get that start in the first place?
With a little help from your parents usually, while you are still financially dependent【C3】______ them. It is easy to get a credit card or student loan when you are in college, because banks figure your parents will bail you out if you fail to pay.
So just as students take on internships to build up their resumes, one’ s university time can be a good time to work on another important personal record: the credit【C4】______.
Credit reports are a【C5】______of one’ s personal credit history, gathered by a credit reporting agency, or CRA.
Banks and companies—【C6】______hospitals, landlords and insurance companies—regularly report to the three main CRAs in the US【C7】______how their customers are doing at paying back the money they 【C8】______.
Anyone with a "legitimate business need" has the right to order individuals’ reports from the CRAs. Potential creditors usually compile the information in the reports into a credit " score" , ranking the level of creditworthiness. Lack of experience in borrowing in【C9】______to a bad record of doing so, can result in a low score.
Even if you are not considering taking out a loan for such a large purchase as a home or car, your credit report can be important to getting through life. Landlords often ask for the reports to judge【C10】______ a person can be trusted to pay the rent. Credit checks are necessary for getting a credit card, even for purchasing a mobile phone calling plan.
People can obtain a copy of their own credit report, usually 【C11】______a cost of around US $8—9. Some consumer organizations recommend doing this once a year to allow one to catch any mistakes 【C12】______have slipped into the record or, even worse, to find out whether any fraud has taken place. Though the system is controlled by laws【C13】______to protect people’ s privacy it isn’ t fool-proof: sometimes people take out bad loans in others’ names, 【C14】______their records.
In a society addicted【C15】______credit, that can be a disaster.
【C8】
选项
A、own
B、lend
C、owe
D、possess
答案
C
解析
这里要注意几个选项在意义上的差别。own和owe在词形上很接近,很容易混淆,但意思恰恰相反,own是“拥有”,owe是“欠”。这里的意思是“客户还钱的情况如何”,所以应该选owe。possess和own同义,lend则是“借出”的意思。
