Lawmakers say they're close to a deal on the 700-billion-dollar package（一组建议） to rescue（拯救） the troubled financial system. A bipartisan（两党的） group has been meeting today to hash out（具体讨论） differences. Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer, chairman of the joint economic committee, says he hopes to reach a deal by this afternoon. Among the details being hammered out, how much the plan will cost? The most common amount being talked about is 700-billion dollars; another key point in the negotiations（谈判） is whether the government will actually become a shareholder（股东） in troubled companies. One part of the plan that seems certain to become a law will be a provision（条款） to limit executive pay（高管薪酬） and bonuses（红利） at companies that sell assets（财产） to the Treasury.
