Unfortunately, both developments were probably short-lived. Oil imports likely rose thanks to rising prices, and many economists think a months-long trend of weaker demand for U.S exports will reassert itself. Recovery in other corners of the globeis expected to lag behind the U.S.

遺憾的是，這兩個事態(tài)的發(fā)展可能是罷花一現(xiàn)。石油進口量可能由于價格上漲而增加，許多經(jīng)濟學家認為持續(xù)數(shù)月疲軟的需求將使美國的出口難以支撐。全球其他地方的經(jīng)濟復蘇預計將落后于美國。

The first step of that process seems to be happening-U.S. consumers are more cautious----but it is unclear who will take up their slack.

改變的第一步似乎將要發(fā)生，美國消費者越來越謹慎，可還不清楚誰將擔負起他們的頹勢。

China is the hope of many economists-particularly now, as it is blessed with a $585 billion fiscal stimulus package that is among the world's largest. Already U.S. companies such as Caterpillar and General Motors say they are benefiting from stronger Chinese spending. However, The impact of this demand remains to be seen.

中國是許多經(jīng)濟學家的希望，尤其是現(xiàn)在。中國得天獨厚地開出 5850億美元的財政剌激政策，這在世界各國中是最多的。諸如卡特彼勒和通用汽車等美國公司稱他們正受益于中國日益龐大的支出。然而，這一需求的影響力仍然有待觀察。
