“批發(fā)市場”怎么說
[ 2006-12-08 15:48 ]
自12月11日起,中國將對外開放國內(nèi)原油、成品油的批發(fā)經(jīng)營權(quán),一改中石油和中石化兩大集團(tuán)集中批發(fā)成品油的局面。從此,具備條件的企業(yè)都可以從事原油、成品油的批發(fā)經(jīng)營,國內(nèi)石油市場將逐步形成國有大型石油公司、跨國石油公司和社會經(jīng)營單位共同參與的格局。
請看《中國日報(bào)》The oil productwholesale marketwill be open to domestic and foreign investors from next year, the Ministry of Commerce announced yesterday.
The wholesale business has long been monopolized by two State-owned conglomerates China Petrochemical Corp (Sinopec) and China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC). And the opening-up will bring in new entities including State-owned, multinational and private companies, which can invest in the sales of gasoline, diesel and kerosene to retailers.
報(bào)道中的“wholesale market”指“批發(fā)市場”?!癢holesale”在此做形容詞,表示“批發(fā)的”,如:wholesale price(批發(fā)價(jià))、whole dealer(批發(fā)商)、wholesale business(批發(fā)業(yè)務(wù))。
此外,wholesale也可用做副詞和動詞,分別指“以批發(fā)價(jià)、大批(購買)”、“成批出售”,看幾個例子:To buy goods wholesale(批量購進(jìn)貨物)、to send out Christmas cards wholesale(大量寄送圣誕卡)、These pencils wholesale at 15 Yuan per dozen.(這種鉛筆批發(fā)售價(jià)每打15元。)
報(bào)道中所提到的“油”,“原油”常用“crude oil”來表示,而“成品油”則為“refined oil”。
