Are you _1_ of traveling to Spain this summer? Well, that glass of sanguine will cost you more. Lauren Frayer reports the Spanish government is hiking taxes on alcohol and tobacco.
今年夏天想去西班牙旅游嗎?嗯，享用酒精會(huì)讓你花費(fèi)更多。據(jù)勞倫·弗雷爾報(bào)道，西班牙政府將提高酒精和煙草的稅率。
Tax on tobacco and liquor are going up by 10% effective immediately just as summer tourism gets underway. But the hike won't affect beer and wine. Europe bailed out Spain's banking system last year, and it's been pressuring Madrid to make such reforms. Ruling conservatives have already _2_ sales tax on things like movie tickets and new cars to 21%. The government is also scrapping some corporate tax deductions. It's been five years since Spain's huge property bubble burst. New taxes are part of austerity measures _3_ to avoid a full-blown bailout from Europe. For NPR News, I'm Lauren Frayer.
夏季旅游季一開始，煙草稅和酒精稅便會(huì)上漲10%。但是此次上漲不會(huì)影響啤酒和葡萄酒。去年，西班牙的銀行體系得到了歐洲的救助資金，這使馬德里方面不得不做出這些改革舉措。執(zhí)政保守黨已將電影票和新車的銷售稅提高至21%。政府也將撤消部分公司稅減免政策?，F(xiàn)在距離西班牙房地產(chǎn)泡沫破滅已過去五年的時(shí)間。新稅收政策是財(cái)政緊縮政策的一部分，以避免接受歐洲的全面救助。NPR新聞，勞倫·弗雷爾報(bào)道。
