郁金香的泡沫

我今天写的作文关于荷兰的郁金香狂热。

在荷兰，17世纪郁金香交易很流行，到了郁金香作为投机品的地步。郁金香来自中东。由于郁金香的明亮颜色，它们迅速地成为荷兰人所喜爱。渐渐地，越来越多的外国投机者们进入了荷兰的郁金香市场，使得价格大幅增加。当郁金香贸易高峰的时候，郁金香是荷兰第四大出口品种。郁金香的售价在1630年代达到了普通荷兰人年收入的十倍以上。普通的荷兰人不得不贷款才能投入郁金香。

1637年郁金香的价格泡沫终于被戳破了。售价太高了，拍卖者找不下一买方。郁金香的价格下跌了，结果荷兰陷入经济危机。

虽然荷兰的郁金香泡沫已经三百年前发生了，但是了解这个危机的细节能使我们对今天的经济制度有更深的理解。

Today, I will write an article about Holland's Tulip Panic.

In Holland during the 17th century, the tulip trade was very popular, to the extent that tulips were used as a speculation item. Tulips come from the Middle East. Due to their bright colors, tulips swiftly became beloved by the Holland people. Gradually, more and more foreign speculators entered the Holland tulip market, causing the price to sharply increasing. At the height of the tulip trade, tulips were Holland's fourth largest export. By the 1630s, tulips reached the price of over 10 times the price of an average Hollander's salary. The average Hollander could only take out loans to buy the tulip.

In 1637, the tulip bubble finally burst. The selling price was too high, auctioneers could not find the next buyer. The price of tulips decreased, resulting in Holland sinking into an economic crisis.

Although Holland's tulip bubble happened over 300 years ago, understanding the details of this crisis can help us have a deeper understanding of today's economic systems.
