我们从英国《金融时报》近期热点报道中挑选值得记忆的高频单词和短语,配合释义与新闻原文例句,帮助你轻松掌握地道实用的英文表达,在不断积累中感受英语能力的进步与提高。




reconciliation

/ˌrekənsɪliˈeɪʃn/

n.和解;调解;


For example, while budget and tax changes, including an extension of the 2017 tax cuts, require the backing of only a simple majority of both chambers thanks to a process known as budget reconciliation, most other legislation will need to break the Senate filibuster — a 60-vote threshold — in order to become law. 

例如,尽管得益于一个被称为预算和解的程序,预算和税收改革(包括延长2017年减税政策)只需要参众两院简单多数的支持,但大多数其他立法将需要打破参议院阻挠议事——60票的门槛——才能成为法律。
