Xi Jinping defends China's stock market interventions on first US visit
習近平首次訪美 詳解中國股市干預政策

China's president, Xi Jinping, has sought to reassure global concern about the world's second-largest economy, defending his government's actions in the stock market and saying growth will be maintained.
中國國家主席習近平力圖打消全球對世界第二大經濟體所持疑慮，他就政府對股市的作為進行解答，稱增長仍將持續(xù)。

"China's economy will stay on a steady course with fairly fast growth. It's still operating in a proper range with a growth rate of 7% ... Our economy is under pressure but that is part of the path on the way toward growth," the Chinese president said in a speech in Seattle on Tuesday, the first day of his state visit to the US.
習近平訪美首日在西雅圖發(fā)表演講表示：“中國經濟將保持平穩(wěn)較快發(fā)展。中國經濟運行仍然保持在7%的合理區(qū)間……我們的經濟面臨著壓力，但這是前進中的問題。”

The president defended his government's intervention into the country's stock market saying the "recent abnormal ups and downs" in the market had now reached "a phase of self-recovery".
習主席為政府對股市的干預行為做出詳解，稱中國股市“近期出現(xiàn)了異常波動”，如今股市已經進入“自我修復的階段”。

Language Tips:

作為全球第二大經濟體，中國對世界經濟發(fā)展的影響力非同小可，而股市與經濟發(fā)展息息相關，難怪中國股市波動全球各地如此關注。因此，《衛(wèi)報》在對習主席關于股市的報道中用了reassure一詞。動詞reassure有“使安心，打消…的疑慮”的意思，該詞充分體現(xiàn)了中國領導人對本國股市和經濟發(fā)展的信心，也給各國領導吃了一顆定心丸。
