The decision to provide this assistance was exceptionally difficult, but it’s clear today that it was essential to stopping a financial panic.
提供援助的决定做得十分艰难，但很显然吗，停止金融恐慌极其必要。

Feel not so easy today. The Finance and Public Finance problem of America and China is totally different.
America own the best mechanism of  these two while the Credit  Economy of China still developing and the financial expenditure could not bring more utilities nowadays. China would suffer at least ten years for this kind of  planned economy.

Well, If they are smart enough, “Going out and standing on their own again is definitely what they want to do, and they’re beginning that process.”  As they should know that they can not rely on US government for long. That is also the reason, they started selling their holdings and seeking for private capital which I think is more reliable.

最近很多朋友都说文章太难。我觉得，也许更多的是被长度吓倒了。其实没有这个必要。读英文文章，跟读中文报纸一样，你不可能一个字不落的通读全篇。而且，就算里面所有的中文字你都认识，你也未必敢保证，所以的内容你都明白（尤其是这种专业性很强的金融类文章）。

所以我觉得，大家不必panic。就relax and enjoy。我觉得主要把握两点，基本问题就不大。
第一，掌握文章的几个主要词汇。想要读懂，不再于你的词汇量有多大，词汇量这个东西是慢慢积累的，你不可能一口吃个胖子，我也不建议大家，每次遇到不懂得单词就马上查字典。只要你掌握了，主要的几个词，心中对于大概主题有数，这样你读起来才能得心里有底，就不会紧张或者慌张了。

第二，掌握段落大意，不要死扣个别词和句子。这似乎听起来像我们的小学语文课本，中心思想，段落大意什么的。不过确实是这样的，全世界，大多数语言都是相同的，至少写作格式相似。所以你要抓住段落的大意和整篇的中心。原比你拿来一篇文章，什么都不看，就从第一个字开始，逐字逐句的读下去，要有效率的多。

希望我的一点点浅见，可以对于大家的阅读有所帮助。

AIG, once the world’s largest insurer, is seeking private capital after a government rescue···Business is always up and down and  is always impermanent. Idoubt that Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. had gone  bankrupt but  why Goldman and Morgan Stanley always being a winner?

11,11, Underwriters earned $43.5 million, or 0.5 percent, in fees, according to Bloomberg data. The average is 3 percent in U.S. additional share offerings this year excluding the AIG share sale, the data show.

文章很难啊  美国的经济确实已经开始明显好转了，增发的6000亿美元确实给自己带来了不少好处，但也引起了很大的金融动荡，我相信以后的作用会更加明显
求牛人解释这一段  不理解
A rebounding economy is allowing the Treasury to unwind bailouts from 2008 and 2009 that were designed to prevent a collapse of the banking system and protect jobs. The government cut its stake in Detroit-based GM to 33 percent and raised $13.6 billion in a November share sale
