细谈“国债”

2013-01-15 12:20:47 字体放大:  

  据美国相关媒体称,中国虽然于八月抛售美国国债,减少了净持有量,但仍是最大的美债海外持有国。

  请看相关英文报道:

  China sold US Treasuries in August, reducing its net holdings but remaining the largest foreign holder, Dow Jones Newswires reported citing the US Treasury Department.

  【解析】

  在上述报导中,“美国国债”的英语表述为"US Treasuries",而“treasury”即“国债、国库券”的意思。此外,“国债”还可以表述为“national debt”或“state debt”。

  例句:

  The Chinese premier took a studiously neutral view on future purchases of US Treasury bills this year.

  谈到中国今年购买美国国债的计划,这位中国总理刻意表达了中性看法。

  The national debts of that country are rolling up.

  那个国家的国债在不断地增加。

  The transaction would involve a considerable lapse of time because the shares could not be sold until the state debt was paid.

  国债没有还清,这些股票就不能出售,所以这笔交易要拖延相当一段时间。
