雙語兩會：經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展“穩(wěn)”字當頭

3月5日上午9時，第十二屆全國人民代表大會第五次會議在人民大會堂開幕，李克強總理向大會做政府工作報告。

報告在回顧上一年工作成果時指出，全年經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展主要目標任務(wù)圓滿完成，經(jīng)濟運行緩中趨穩(wěn)、穩(wěn)中向好。

每一年的政府工作報告都會對上一年的經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展狀況作出概述性總結(jié)，“穩(wěn)中有進、穩(wěn)中向好、緩中趨穩(wěn)”等以“穩(wěn)”字為核心的表述也逐漸成為報告中的高頻詞。

下面，我們就以最近5年的政府工作報告中對經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展的描述為例，跟大家一起學(xué)習(xí)一下這些“穩(wěn)”字表達的英文說法。
