EC says Portugal‘s GDP to increase 0.4% in 2005
歐盟委員會(huì)稱葡萄牙2005年國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值增長(zhǎng)0.4%
Brussels， Belgium， 21 Nov – The European Commission has lowered its forecast for the growth of the Portuguese economy in 2005.比利時(shí)，布魯塞爾，11月21日 – 歐盟委員會(huì)已經(jīng)降低了對(duì)葡萄牙2005年經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)量的預(yù)測(cè)。
According to forecasts by the EC issued Friday， Portuguese GDP will increase by just 0.4% this year， 0.8% in 2006 and 1.2% in 2007.根據(jù)歐盟委員會(huì)上周五作出的預(yù)測(cè)，葡萄牙今年的國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值將增長(zhǎng)0.4%，2006年增長(zhǎng)0.8%，2007年增長(zhǎng)1.2%.
The new figures place Portugal ahead of only Malta among the 25 countries in the European Union.在歐盟25個(gè)成員國(guó)中，葡萄牙的增長(zhǎng)率僅高于馬耳他。
The previous EC forecast issued in April this year estimated Portugal‘s GDP growth at 1.1%.今年4月，歐盟委員會(huì)曾預(yù)測(cè)葡萄牙的國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值將增長(zhǎng)1.1%.
The figure from the EC slightly less pessimistic than that issued by the Bank of Portugal which cut its GDP growth forecast for 2005 from 0.5% to 0.3%.歐盟委員會(huì)的新數(shù)字比葡萄牙銀行的預(yù)測(cè)數(shù)字還樂觀一些，后者將葡萄牙2005年預(yù)計(jì)GDP增長(zhǎng)量由0.5%減至0.3%.
The Portuguese government estimates the economy will grow 0.5% this year.葡萄牙政府估計(jì)今年經(jīng)濟(jì)將增長(zhǎng)0.5%.
