NEW YORK – A consensus now exists that America’s recession – already a year old – is likely to be long and deep, and that almost all countries will be affected. I always thought that the notion that what happened in America would be decoupled from the rest of the world was a myth.
纽约-现在存在着这样一种共识，已经持续了一年的美国经济衰退可能会漫长而且深入，而且几乎所有国家都将受到影响。我始终认为，在美国发生的事情和世界其它国家脱钩的观念是一个迷思。一些列事件正在表明，这确实是个迷思。
