The U.S. Economy美國經(jīng)濟

1)Factors that contribute to the fast growth of the economy:

①the geographical location of the United States povides very good conditions for the country to grow and become strong.

②the United States has been blessed by being a land rich in mineral resources and fertile farm soil, together with a moderate climate.

③America has been fortunate in having enough people to provide the labour necessary for a constantly expanding economy.

④the quality of available labour. The United States has a skilful and willing labour force.

經(jīng)濟快速增長的幾個因素：

1.美國的地理位置為國家的發(fā)展壯大提供了良好的條件；

2.美國有幸是一塊礦產(chǎn)資源豐富、土壤肥沃的陸地，氣候溫和；

3.擁有足夠的勞動力以滿足不斷發(fā)展的經(jīng)濟增長；

4.這些勞動力的質(zhì)量。美國擁有技術(shù)高和能動性好的勞動力大軍。

2)Characteristics of the U.S. economy:

characterised by a high degree of monopoly.

經(jīng)濟特征：已高度壟斷為特點。

3)the importance of foreign trade:

the United States supplies a larger share of the imports of all other countries than does any other country in the world. But the U.S. share of the world trade has declined in recent years.

①Currently US exports are about 15% of the world's total;

②the US imports about 13% of all world imports;

③Canada is the largest single source of goods imported by the U.S., accounting for nearly 30% of the total. Asia provides about 18% of American imports. Thus the economy of these countries is often affected when the U.S. economy is in trouble.

美國進口的商品比世界任何國家都多。但最近幾年比例有所下降。1.美國出口量占全世界出口總數(shù)的15%；2.美國的進口占13%左右；3.加拿大是最大的供應(yīng)國，占總數(shù)的近30%。亞洲占18%左右。因此，一旦美國經(jīng)濟陷入困境，這些國家也會受到影響。

4)problems facing the US economy:

unemployment, inflation, financial deficit, and trade deficit.

經(jīng)濟存在的問題：失業(yè)，通貨膨脹，財政赤字和貿(mào)易赤字。
