　　据美媒最新报道，美国2020年经济数据出炉，GDP萎缩3.5%。为二战结束以来最差“成绩”。

　　美国消费者新闻与商业频道(CNBC)报道称，美国第四季度GDP增长4%，低于道琼斯此前预计的4.3%的增长率。财政部数据显示，美国2020年全年GDP萎缩3.5%。

　　…increased at a 4% pace in the fourth quarter, slightly below the 4.3% expectation from economists surveyed by Dow Jones. In the Commerce report, the annualized pace closed out a 2020 that saw GDP overall decline 3.5% for the full year.

　　报道称，这是美国自二战结束后经济表现最差的一年。

　　…the worst year for the US since at least the end of World War II.

　　另据美联社报道，该数据是美国GDP自2009年萎缩2.5%以来首次录得负值，同时也是1946年萎缩11.6%以来最惨重的年度经济倒退。

　　The estimated drop in GDP for 2020 was the first such decline since a 2.5% fall in 2009… That was the deepest annual setback since the economy shrank 11.6% in 1946, when the economy was demobilizing after World War II.

　　CNCB分析称，美国疫苗推出的速度比预期慢，加上全国范围内病例持续增加、各类活动受限，可能是阻碍第四季度经济增长的因素，并将延续到2021年初。

　　A slower-than-anticipated rollout in the vaccines coupled with a continued rise in cases and restrictions on activity across the country, likely held back growth in the fourth quarter and could extend into the early part of 2021.

　　美联社预测，美国2021年的经济预期仍然比较迷茫。经济学家警告，除非在全国范围内派发疫苗，并且政府主导的救援在全国范围内开展，否则持续复苏将难以实现。然而，这一过程可能需要数月时间，在此期间，数百万的美国人将继续挣扎求生。

　　The outlook for 2021 remains hazy. Economists warn that a sustained recovery won't likely take hold until vaccines are distributed and administered nationwide and government-enacted rescue aid spreads through the economy — a process likely to take months. In the meantime, millions of Americans continue to struggle.
