赤字

Although its public debt was relatively low before the financial crisis started in August 2007, Britain was ill-placed because it was running a sizeable deficit at what turned out to be the peak of the economic cycle. That shortfall reflected Gordon Brown's decision, as chancellor of the exchequer, to embark on a spending spree a decade ago. Total expenditure jumped from 36% of GDP in 1999 to 41% by 2005 and then stayed at that level, even though the economy was growing fast.

虽然公共债务在2007年8月金融危机前的时后还处于一个相对较低的水平，但英国已将自己置于了不利境地，因为在经济处于拐点的时刻英国的财政赤字依然相当庞大，这是财政部大臣Gordon Brown挥霍性消费政策的结果，总开销从1999年占GDP的36%跃升至2005年的41%，此后便一直维持在这个水平，即便如此经济的增长依然强劲。

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。
