7月10日,菲律賓具有很大影響力的天主教會(huì)發(fā)表聲明說(shuō),菲律賓目前的政治危機(jī)是由很多原因造成的,因此他們不贊同反對(duì)派要求總統(tǒng)阿羅約辭職的要求。但根據(jù)CNN和《時(shí)代周刊》聯(lián)合展開(kāi)的最新民調(diào)結(jié)果,57.5%的受調(diào)查者認(rèn)為阿羅約應(yīng)該提前結(jié)束總統(tǒng)任期。該民調(diào)的誤差幅度在4.1%以內(nèi)。外電報(bào)道如下:A majority of people surveyed this month say Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo should not complete her presidential term, according to a new CNN/Time poll.
Additionally, the survey found that opposition to the Philippine leader fell and rose along age lines. Of the 600 people surveyed in the poll, conducted by TNS during the past week, 57.5 percent said Arroyo should quit. The poll was taken July 2-5, and had a margin of error of 4.1 percent. TNS is a London-based international polling company.
The results come as Arroyo faces mounting pressure to step down, following allegations of cheating in the 2004 presidential election.
Margin of error表示“誤差幅度”,margin在此表示“差數(shù),差額尺度”,如:a margin of 500 votes(五百?gòu)堖x票的差額)。和margin相關(guān)的詞組還有很多,如:by a comfortable margin(時(shí)間充裕地,以較大的多數(shù));by a narrow margin(以微弱多數(shù));operating margin(營(yíng)業(yè)毛利);profit margin(損益帳,利潤(rùn)率,利潤(rùn)邊際);reduction margin(減價(jià)余地);split margin(利率差幅);without margin(無(wú)押金,無(wú)定金)等。
據(jù)悉,阿羅約7月7日突然要求所有內(nèi)閣成員辭職,以重組政府,為政治改革奠定基礎(chǔ)。次日,10名內(nèi)閣成員宣布集體辭職,并要求阿羅約下臺(tái)。目前,除了天主教會(huì)和軍隊(duì)保持中立,阿羅約還擁有多數(shù)地方官員、國(guó)會(huì)議員和內(nèi)閣成員的支持。因此,菲律賓政局有望避免進(jìn)一步動(dòng)蕩。
