问题     Home prices in California have risen 130 percent since 1997, twice as much as in the United States, according to New York Times.
    These days, house-price surge is more than a local or national condition. It’s a worldwide phenomenon.
    The American housing boom in recent years is nothing compared with the price run in countries like France, Spain, Britain, Ireland, Sweden and Australia.
    Million-dollar two-bedroom apartments are not only a fixture of New York but also of London, Paris and Hong Kong. In New Zealand, housing prices rose more than 16 percent from 2003 to 2004. In Ireland, they rose more than 10 percent in that period.
    The rise in prices is worrisome because the international housing boom is a byproduct of globalization. A house on a plot of ground is the most precious assets. But the financial markets that make it convenient for people to borrow money to buy a house, or speculate, are increasingly open, international.

选项

答案 据《纽约时报》报道,美国加利福尼亚州的房价自从1997年以来已经上涨了130%,两倍于美国的房价。 近日,房价的强劲上升不仅限于某一地区或某一国家,而是成为了世界范围的普遍现象。 与法国、西班牙、英国、爱尔兰、瑞典或澳大利亚相比,美国近年的房价攀升幅度实在无足挂齿。 如今,价值百万美元的两居室已不再是纽约等地区特有的现象,在伦敦、巴黎乃至中国香港,这种骇人听闻的高价房屋比比皆是。在新西兰,2003年到2004年房价增长了16%,在爱尔兰,其间涨幅为10%。 房价飙升令人不安,因为国际房屋市场热是全球化趋势的副产品。如今,房屋成为了最有价值的不动产。且金融市场也日趋开放,日趋国际化,使得银行贷款购房或投机更为便利。
