insure against fire

基本解釋

The loss of all his belongings rammed home the need to insure against fire.
他的家產(chǎn)喪失殆盡，這使他痛感火災(zāi)保險必不可少。
Those who insure against fire and theft can set premiums on the basis of decades of experience; financial markets are inherently less predictable.
盡管那些投?；馂?zāi)險和偷竊險的投機商們能根據(jù)幾十年的經(jīng)驗來投保，但是金融市場卻向來難以預(yù)測。
In other words,someone who insured such bonds against default would have, on average, mademoney (conventional insurance companies, which insure against fire or theft,have not always done so well).
也就是對這類債券的拖債風(fēng)險投保的人平均是盈利的（那些針對失火或者盜竊的傳統(tǒng)保險公司卻并非總做得這么好）。

The biggest problem, adds Mr Stern, is that markets find it hard to insure against rare, unpredictable but catastrophic events such as an explosion in a pipeline or a terrorist attack—or the fire that shut down Rough.
