14、spect on a conservative estimate/ on one plausible estimate/ at a rough estimate,反補貼稅 知識產(chǎn)權(quán) 服務(wù)貿(mào)易 期望中的，展望中的 據(jù)保守估計/ 合理估計/ 粗略估計,Language Points,Para.1 在過去的幾天中，美國和歐共體之間有關(guān)農(nóng)產(chǎn)品貿(mào)易的分歧幾乎蕩然無存。因此，關(guān)貿(mào)總協(xié)議烏拉圭回合談判現(xiàn)已接近尾聲。誠然，協(xié)議遠(yuǎn)不夠完善，僅是對一系列棘手問題的妥協(xié)。爭取自由貿(mào)易的事業(yè)還有許多仗要打。不過，不必?fù)?dān)口根據(jù)保守的估計，烏拉圭回合協(xié)議將持久地每年為全球增加1000多億美元的財富。而且.還會刺激各國的經(jīng)

15、濟增長(尤其是世界上最貧困的國家)。同時，它將貿(mào)易競爭擴展到那些迄今仍堅持保護主義政策并因此而落后的國家。無論依據(jù)何種標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來衡量，這都是一個價值巨大的成就。,2. Para. 3 如果說對于法國農(nóng)場主來講，只要能保住他們的補貼，烏拉圭回合談判的失敗僅是小事一樁的話，那是可以理解的?？蓯u的是，雖然法國經(jīng)濟的主體(包括該國有競爭力的農(nóng)場主在內(nèi))會從談判的成功中獲得豐厚的利益，法國政府似乎仍贊同他們的意見。法國農(nóng)業(yè)部長部瓊皮埃爾索思森說，法國會阻止歐共體接受這一新的農(nóng)產(chǎn)品貿(mào)易協(xié)議，從而破壞烏拉圭回合談判。這一立場，從政治角度講，是令人擔(dān)憂的;從經(jīng)濟角度講，是站不住腳的。其他歐共體國家的政府必須遏制住法國，然后開始為自由貿(mào)易取得進展而歡呼。,3. Para.7 有關(guān)油料作物的一場獨立而漫長的爭論確實仍構(gòu)成一種威脅。與谷物和其他農(nóng)產(chǎn)品不同，這些產(chǎn)品是首次打算納人烏拉圭回合談判而進人關(guān)貿(mào)總協(xié)定的管轄范圍，而油料作物(用來制作食用油、人造黃油、動物飼料)則早一已在其管轄之下美國曾兩次向關(guān)貿(mào)總協(xié)定申訴，歐洲違背了其承諾，而關(guān)貿(mào)總協(xié)定也兩次裁決歐共體敗訴
