關(guān)于非洲經(jīng)濟(jì)的樂(lè)觀報(bào)告

From VOA Learning English, this is the Economics Report.

這里是美國(guó)之音慢速英語(yǔ)經(jīng)濟(jì)報(bào)道。

Last week, we reported that international economists released a hopeful report about Africa's economy. The African Development Bank, the United Nations Development Program and the OECD Development Center wrote the report.

上周，我們報(bào)道了一份國(guó)際經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家發(fā)布的一份關(guān)于非洲經(jīng)濟(jì)的樂(lè)觀報(bào)告。這份報(bào)告由非洲開(kāi)發(fā)銀行、聯(lián)合國(guó)開(kāi)發(fā)計(jì)劃署和經(jīng)濟(jì)合作與發(fā)展組織(OECD)聯(lián)合所寫(xiě)。

It says economic growth on the continent is expected to increase by as much as 5 or 6 percent over the next two years. That would be the continent's highest growth rate since the worldwide economic recession in 2009. Economic experts say governments have established policies that are inviting to foreign investors. The report says that will fuel the expected growth.

該報(bào)告稱(chēng)，非洲大陸的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)在未來(lái)兩年有望增長(zhǎng)5%或6%。這將是非洲大陸自2009年經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退以來(lái)最高的增長(zhǎng)速度。經(jīng)濟(jì)專(zhuān)家稱(chēng)，非洲政府已經(jīng)制定了政策，來(lái)邀請(qǐng)外國(guó)投資者。報(bào)告稱(chēng)，這將會(huì)進(jìn)一步加速非洲經(jīng)濟(jì)的預(yù)期增長(zhǎng)。

Ethiopia grew at a rate of almost 10 percent, the highest in East Africa. Economists believe Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda will have growth rates of between 6.5 percent and 7.5 percent from agriculture, industry and services. Kenya's financial services and communication technology industries are expected to drive a growth rate of 6 percent.

埃塞俄比亞的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)速度將近10%，是東非國(guó)家中最高的。經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家認(rèn)為，通過(guò)農(nóng)業(yè)、工業(yè)和服務(wù)業(yè)的不斷發(fā)展，坦桑尼亞、烏干達(dá)和盧旺達(dá)的將會(huì)達(dá)到6.5%到7%的增長(zhǎng)率?？夏醽喌慕鹑诜?wù)和通信技術(shù)行業(yè)預(yù)計(jì)將會(huì)推動(dòng)肯尼亞達(dá)到6%的增長(zhǎng)率。

Economists expect 7 percent growth in West Africa's economy in the next two years. They say oil continues to be a major source of income, but that other industries are also important. Growth in Nigeria is coming from agriculture, trade and information and communications technology. Manufacturing is helping Ghana grow. Sierra Leone is the fastest growing country in the area because of its iron ore exports, as well as its agriculture and building industries.

經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家們預(yù)計(jì)，在接下來(lái)的兩年中，西非的經(jīng)濟(jì)將會(huì)達(dá)到7%的增長(zhǎng)率。他們稱(chēng)石油行業(yè)仍然是一個(gè)主要的收入來(lái)源，但是其他行業(yè)對(duì)經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展也很重要。尼日利亞的增長(zhǎng)主要來(lái)自農(nóng)業(yè)、經(jīng)濟(jì)貿(mào)易和通信技術(shù)行業(yè)。制造業(yè)的發(fā)展促進(jìn)加納的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)率的上升。由于其鐵礦出口，以及農(nóng)業(yè)和建筑業(yè)的發(fā)展，使得塞拉利昂成為該地區(qū)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)最快的國(guó)家。

In Southern Africa, Angola, Mozambique and Zambia are expected to grow between 5 and 7 percent. Labor problems and weak foreign export markets have affected growth in South Africa. But that country is still expected to grow almost 3 percent over the next two years.

南非、安哥拉、莫桑比克和贊比亞的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)率預(yù)計(jì)將達(dá)到5%到7%。勞工問(wèn)題和外貿(mào)出口市場(chǎng)疲軟影響了南非經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展，但是在未來(lái)兩年，該國(guó)的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)率仍有望增長(zhǎng)近3%。

Angela Lusigi is an economist and policy adviser for the Regional Bureau for Africa in the U. N. Development Program.

安吉拉是聯(lián)合國(guó)發(fā)展計(jì)劃非洲地方事務(wù)局的經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家和政策制定者。

"Now the next step is how to translate this stable macroeconomic framework into inclusive growth that touches the lives of people – because one of things is we are seeing a lot of inequality still. So as much as we are talking about girls, we have to see how that growth can impact all people, not just one group of people," said Lusigi.

她說(shuō)：“現(xiàn)在的下一步是如何仍將這一穩(wěn)定的宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)框架轉(zhuǎn)化為觸及人們生活的包容性增長(zhǎng)，因?yàn)槠渲械膯?wèn)題之一是，我們?nèi)匀豢梢钥吹接泻芏嗟牟黄降龋援?dāng)我們談到女孩時(shí)，我們必須看到這種增長(zhǎng)如何影響到所有人，而不是單一的群體。”
