Both revenue and profits of China's food industry increased last year, among which the instant noodles sector regained momentum after industrial upgrade, accounting for nearly 40 percent of global sales, according to data released at China Instant Food Conference Press Conference.

中國方便食品大會新聞發(fā)布會上發(fā)布的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，去年，我國食品行業(yè)的收入和利潤均有所增加，其中，方便面行業(yè)在經(jīng)過產(chǎn)業(yè)升級之后開始回暖，占全球銷量的近40%。

【單詞講解】

Momentum這個詞在經(jīng)濟(jì)類報道中很常見，一般表示發(fā)展的“勢頭、動力”，比如，maintain a sound momentum of development(保持良好發(fā)展勢頭)，the momentum of multi-polarity(世界多極化勢頭)，gain momentum(勢頭強(qiáng)勁)，regain momentum(勢頭回暖)等。

Sales of instant noodles in China began to drop in 2013 and reached a low point of 38.5 billion units in 2016, data from the World Instant Noodles Association showed.

世界方便面協(xié)會的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，中國的方便面銷量從2013年開始下滑，在2016年達(dá)到385億包的低點(diǎn)。

對于方便面市場低迷，有分析認(rèn)為，因?yàn)橥赓u(food delivery service)的出現(xiàn)，尤其是初期外賣補(bǔ)貼較多(generous subsidy)，點(diǎn)外賣比較便宜，這導(dǎo)致方便面消費(fèi)出現(xiàn)寒冬。
