听力原文: Dealers in government and private securities need short-term financing to purchase new securities and carry their existing portfolios of securities until those securities are sold to customers or reach maturity. Such loans are readily granted by many of the largest banks because of their high quality--often backed by pledging the dealer's holdings of government securities as collateral. Moreover, many loans to securities dealers are so short-overnight out to a few days that the bank can quickly recover its funds or make a new loan at a higher interest rate if the credit markets have tightened up.

听力原文: A certificate of deposit (CD) is a time deposit with a bank. Time deposits may not be withdrawn on demand like a check account. CDs are generally issued by commercial banks but they can be bought through brokerages. They bear a specific maturity date that usually lasts from 3 months to 5 years, a specified interest rate, and can be issued in any denomination, very similar to bonds. CDs offer a slightly higher yield than T-Bills because of the slightly higher default risk for a bank, but overall the likeliness of a large bank going broke is pretty slim. Of course, the amount of interest you earn depends on a number of factors such as the current interest rate environment, how much money you invest, the length of time, and your specific bank.
