中英簽署價(jià)值數(shù)十億美元的核電項(xiàng)目大單

Chinese President Xi Jinping has sealed a multi-billion dollar deal to finance nuclear power stations in Britain, crowning a visit that Prime Minister David Cameron hopes will unleash a wave of investment from the world's second largest economy.
中國(guó)國(guó)家主席習(xí)近平簽署了價(jià)值數(shù)十億美元的協(xié)議，為英國(guó)核電站提供資金，這也是他訪英期間最受外界矚目的事件。英國(guó)首相卡梅倫希望習(xí)近平此行將帶動(dòng)一波來自中國(guó)的投資熱潮。

After a day of pomp, Communist Party General Secretary Xi on Wednesday turned from pageantry to discussion of 40 billion pounds' ($62 billion) worth of deals with Cameron in his Downing Street residence, where the landmark nuclear deal was signed.
在接受了一天的熱情接待后，習(xí)近平21日開始與卡梅倫在首相官邸商討價(jià)值400億英鎊(620億美元)的協(xié)議，并簽署了具有里程碑意義的核協(xié)議。

In the first major Chinese investment in a Western nuclear facility, China's General Nuclear Corporation (CGN) will take a one-third stake in the planned 18 billion-pound ($28 billion) Hinkley Point nuclear plant controlled by France's EDF.
中國(guó)廣核集團(tuán)有限公司(中廣核)將在計(jì)劃耗資180億英鎊興建的欣克利角核電廠持有三分之一股份，該核電廠由法國(guó)EDF控股。這是中國(guó)對(duì)西方核能設(shè)施進(jìn)行的首次大筆投資。

Language Tips：

Crown作動(dòng)詞有“居…之頂”的意思。這個(gè)詞將英國(guó)人對(duì)與中方核電項(xiàng)目合作的期盼與重視的心理，表露無遺。

Pomp作名詞指“(典禮等)盛況，還有“華麗；壯麗”的意思。例如：the solemn pomp of a military funeral. (軍事葬禮莊嚴(yán)而華麗。)習(xí)大大抵英首日各方面接待的儀禮都盛況空前，用pomp來形容，再貼切不過了。
