抢了几个月厕纸以后,美国人总算不用抢厕纸了,然而又有一样日常所需的东西因为短缺而被迫限量配给,把美国各地的银行急得团团转,那就是:硬币。 Just as supplies of toilet paper are finally getting back to normal, the coronavirus has triggered another shortage of something we typically take for granted: pocket change. 就在卫生纸供应总算恢复正常时,新冠肺炎疫情却引发了另一种我们想当然的东西短缺:零钱。 Banks around the US are running low on nickels, dimes, quarters and even pennies. And the Federal Reserve, which supplies banks, has been forced to ration scarce supplies. 美国各地银行的五分硬币、十分硬币、两角五分硬币甚至还有一分硬币都出现短缺。给银行供应货币的美联储被迫限额配给稀缺硬币。 |
