CNN News: 特朗普挑起貿易戰(zhàn) 美國各界人士擔憂

Today`s down the middle coverage starts with a look new tariffs which are like taxes that the U.S. is placing on certain imports. We`ve talked about the Trump administration`s previous tariffs on steel, aluminum, solar panels and washing machines. The new ones that U.S. President Donald Trump is putting in place are on about $50 billion worth of imported goods from China.

今天的新聞報道從一種新的稅收開始，這種稅收是在特定的商品上征稅。我們已經討論過特朗普政府之前對鋼鐵、鋁、太陽能電池板和洗衣機的關稅。美國總統(tǒng)唐納德•特朗普正在實施的新舉措，涉及價值約500億美元的中國進口商品。

It`s a sort of punishment on China for what the U.S. says are unfair trade practices that never should have been allowed by previous American leaders.

是對中國的一種懲罰，因為美國說這些“不公平”的貿易行為從來都不應該得到美國前領導人的允許。

President Trump says he thinks of China as a friend, but that the trade deficit that the U.S. has with China, the fact that America imports far more goods from China than it exports to China is unacceptable.

特朗普總統(tǒng)表示，他認為中國是朋友，但美國與中國的貿易逆差是不可接受的，因為美國從中國進口的商品遠多于對美國對中國的出口的產品。

DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: It is the largest deficit of any country in the history of our world. It`s out of control.

唐納德·特朗普：這是世界歷史上最大的赤字。這是失控。

AZUZ: Some economists are afraid this could start a trade war, when countries increase restrictions on another`s products and prices rise. And the U.S. stock market dropped yesterday significantly, partially because some investors were concerned that would happen. The Trump administration says the new tariffs would only have a small effect on Americans but an expert on international trade says Americans will end up having to pay more for every day items, and a Chinese government official says a trade war does no good to anyone, that there is no winner.

阿祖茲：一些經濟學家擔心這可能引發(fā)一場貿易戰(zhàn)，因為國家對其他國家的產品增加限制，價格上漲。美國股市昨日大幅下跌，部分原因是一些投資者擔心這種情況會發(fā)生。特朗普政府表示,新關稅只會對美國人產生衛(wèi)校的影響，但國際貿易專家表示,美國人最終將不得不增加日常用品的支付。中國政府官員表示貿易戰(zhàn)對任何人都沒有好處,沒有贏家。

The tariffs won`t take effect immediately. It will probably be more than a month before they`re in place.

這些關稅不會立即生效?？赡芤^一個多月才會實施。
