Bank of Japan Lowers View of Economy
The Bank of Japan has downgraded its assessment of Japan’s faltering economy for a second month. This will fuel a speculation that managing policy could be eased in the coming months after the BOJ ignored government calls to do so last week. According to its monthly report, economic adjustments, which is considered a euphemism for slowdown, have intensified.
难点注释:
falter: v. 摇摇欲坠,衰退
ease: v. 放松
euphemism: n. 委婉说法,委婉词
参考译文:
日本银行连续第二个月下调它对日本摇摇欲坠的经济所作的评估。上周,日本银行没有理会政府有关放松金融政策的呼吁,这次的评估报告引起了关于日本央行将在未来的数月里放宽金融政策的猜测。日本银行在它的月度报告里称经济活动的调整—经济放缓的一种委婉说法—已经有所加强。
