WBR: Europe bank fears return 10 Jul 14

Thu, 10 Jul 14

Share markets in Europe have been spooked by problems at Portugal's top bank, Banco Espirito Santo. We ask what is the risk to the rest of the continent. Also, why America's financial elite¹ wants a more interventionist foreign policy in Washington. And the mind boggling implications of new mind reading technology.

1 elite   

n.精英阶层；实力集团；adj.杰出的，卓越的

参考例句：

• The power elite inside the government is controlling foreign policy.政府内部的一群握有实权的精英控制着对外政策。
• We have a political elite in this country.我们国家有一群政治精英。
