💬 双语例句
Fourteen other states have adopted those standards, which therefore cover 40% of the US population. Auto companies can’t afford to produce two different sets of cars for states with strict and lenient emission rules.
以环境政策为例。 加利福尼亚州已经实施了相对严格的汽车排放标准。 其他十四个州也接受了这一标准,这意味着已经覆盖了40%的美国人口。 汽车公司不可能为排放规则较严格和较宽松的州生产两套不同的车型。 因此,加州很可能为全国规定了排放标准。
The Fund was lenient toward Greece because Greece is a eurozone member; but this favoritism was unjustified and ultimately costly. Greek public expenditures have fluctuated between 50% and 59% of GDP since 2010, creating a massive debt overhang and hindering growth.
长期以来,基金组织和欧盟一直对许多欧盟国家过度的财政负担视而不见。 基金组织对希腊宽容是因为希腊是欧元区成员;但这种偏袒是没有道理的,也最终付出了代价。 2010年以来,希腊公共支出与GDP的比率在50%至59%之间波动,产生了巨大的债务负担并阻碍了该国的经济发展。 相比之下,德国和英国就将公共支出合理控制在了相当于GDP44%的水平。
Creditors cannot be expected to be any more lenient with Ukraine than they have been with Greece, a member of the eurozone. But a hard stance on Ukraine while it fights a war with Russia could threaten Europe’s strategic buffer from the Baltic to the Balkans.
人们无法指望债权人对乌克兰会比对身为欧元区成员国的希腊更为宽松。 但在乌克兰对俄作战时对其采取强硬立场可能威胁到欧洲从波罗的海到巴尔干的战略缓冲。
