擴大內需 propel/expand domestic demand

金融危機席捲全球之後,國外市場需求萎縮,打擊了中國的出口貿易,給外貿出口和加工製造業造成了不小的影響。在此次政協會議召開之際政協秘書處收到的提案中,就有不少委員建議進一步擴大內需,緩解經濟衰退的衝擊。

請看《中國日報》的報導:

"Most members agree that the country should adopt further measures to propel domestic demand and stimulate consumption," Zhao said. To that effect, he said CPPCC representatives are keen to see how the country's $586 billion economic stimulus package is used.

趙(啟正)說:「大多數政協委員認為國家應進一步採取措施擴大內需,刺激消費。」他還表示,正因為此,政協代表們非常想了解國家的5860億美元經濟刺激方案的資金使用情況。

在上面的報導中,propel domestic demand就是指「擴大內需」,還可以說成expand domestic demand。Domestic demand即指「國內需求」。Domestic除了可以表示「國內的」,還常用來指「家庭的」。最近的domestic and foreign news(國內外新聞)講了不少domestic violence(家庭暴力)事件。Susan is a very domestic sort of woman.(Susan是個十足的家庭婦女),平時也有很多domestic troubles(家庭糾紛),看到這些擔心極了。

Propel常用來表示「推進、鼓勵」,例如to use oars to propel boats(用槳划船)。而expand則用來表示擴展,擴張。Jim是個a person propelled by ambition(受野心驅策的人),總不甘心於現狀。開會時,他抓住機會expand his view(闡述自己的觀點),論述了possibility of expanding trade(擴大貿易往來的可能),並且expand his short report into a long one.(把他的簡短陳述擴展為長篇報告)。
