阅读理解。 As financial crisis today claimed more victims this week on Wall Street, the rest of the world's markets and banks have been in disorder. In Britain, 45,000 banking jobs are now in danger. Another financial giant has fallen in Britain. This time, it is poor HBOS which owns Halifax Bank and the Bank of Scotland. Lloyds Banks has agreed to take over HBOS but, reports say, that has put 40,000 jobs at risk. The takeover comes as fears of a global financial collapse (a sudden failure) following the heavy losses among some of the world's biggest financial institutions. Wall Street investment bank Lehman Brothers went into bankruptcy this week, and other large investment houses have been sold off or propped up (支撑) by the US government. Central banks from the US, Japan and the European Union have pumped hundreds of billions of dollars into the banking system to try to avoid a collapse. Stock markets have suffered sharp losses. In Russia, trading on the country's main stock exchanges was stopped for two days this week because of the financial collapse. When controllers suspended (暂停) trading at mid-day Wednesday, Russia's RTS Index of leading stocks had fallen nearly 6.5percent, adding to its 50 percent drop since June 1. But there are those who say that this is just another cycle. Business analyst Robbie Clayton says after the boom, now it is time for the decline, and the world economy will recover. But with so much instability, experts say the final curtain is unlikely to drop on the financial crisis any time soon.
