今天我们要学的词是 decouple.
decouple 的意思是断开联系,脱钩。 While Hong Kong remains China’s pre-eminent financial center, its appeal is bound to diminish with the prospect that the U.S. and China are slowly decoupling. 尽管香港仍然是中国重要的金融中心,但由于美中两国正走向缓慢脱钩,其吸引力势必会减弱。
Russia appears to have all but dcoupled from the dollar, dumping it's US treasury holding, stockpiling a large supply of gold and removing the dollar in bilateral trade agreements with other nations. 俄罗斯似乎已经几乎与美元脱钩,抛售了其美国国债,积累了大量黄金储备,并在与其他国家的双边贸易协定中取消了美元。
