今天小编给大家带来了关于考研英语长难句的知识点分享，希望对大家的学习有所帮助，预祝大家考试顺利。
今天的句子：
The Federal Reserve on Wednesday suggested it would not raise interest rates in 2019, a dramatic about-face that indicated the central bank’s worries about the economy are intensifying. “Growth is slowing somewhat more than expected,” Fed Chair Jerome H. Powell said at a news conference. “While the U.S. economy showed little evidence of a slowdown through the end of 2018, the limited data we have so far this year have been somewhat more mixed.”
思考题：
首题：
The Federal Reserve had expected that the economy would be more slowing.
(T or F)
再看一下：
The Federal Reserve had expected that the economy would be more robust. (这个思考题自己判断不用选择)
第二题：
The decision of the Reserve showed its apprehension about the economy.
(T or F)
再看看词汇：
1. suggest 暗示，表明，建议
2. interest rates 银行利率(息)(经济不好央行就减息，经济太好央行就加息)
3. about-face 态度的转变
4. indicate 表明
5. intensify 加剧
6. mixed 不清晰(负面词汇)，在这里理解为(喜忧参半)
7. the central bank 中央银行
(这里The Federal Reserve 美联储就是美国的央行,简称Fed)
8. slowdown 放缓
首句：
参考译文：
周三，美联储表示，它在2019年不会加息。这是一次态度巨大的改变，这表明央行(美联储)对于经济的担心在加剧。
第二句：
参考译文：
尽管美国经济在2018年底前几乎没有显示出经济放缓的迹象，但我们今年迄今所掌握的有限数据却多少有些喜忧参半。
所以思考题：

思考题一：
The Federal Reserve had expected that the economy would be more slowing.
美联储之前预计经济会发展会更加的缓慢。
不对!之前预计是更好的!现在调低了预期!
思考题二：
The decision of the Fed showed its apprehension about the economy.
美联储的决定表明了其对经济的担心!
我知道你不认识：apprehension!这就是担心的意思!=worry现在该认识了吧!正确!
