好的，让我们来看看今天的头条新闻。

We start with recession fears, which have been rocking the stock market this week and causing concerns for the broader U.S. economy.

我们首先关注的是衰退担忧，这种担忧本周已经震动了股市， 并引起了对更广泛美国经济的担忧。

The economic anxiety came on quickly because only 20 days ago, the U.S. stock market was at all-time highs, and the U.S. economy appeared to be growing at a solid pace.

经济焦虑迅速升温， 因为仅在20天前，美国股市还处于历史高位，美国经济看似正以稳健的步伐增长。

Thoughts of a recession were on hardly anyone's minds, but now economists are saying the risk of a recession is rising.

衰退的念头几乎无人考虑，但如今经济学家们表示， 经济衰退的风险正在上升。

So what is a recession?

那么，什么是经济衰退呢？

A recession is when we see a significant decline in economic activity across multiple sectors for a prolonged period of time.

经济衰退是指在较长一段时间内，多个行业领域的经济活动出现显著下降。

The deep economic downturn is usually marked by events like mass job losses, bankruptcies, and foreclosures.

深度的经济衰退通常以大规模失业、企业破产和房屋止赎等事件为标志。

As for the reason why recessions occur, they are many and varied.

至于为什么会出现经济衰退，原因多种多样。

Some economists say the very fear of recession alone can be a driving factor, with anxious consumers spending less and maybe with nervous investors pulling financial markets down, which may explain why politicians and government officials are often reluctant to use the term.

一些经济学家认为， 仅仅是经济衰退的恐惧本身就可以成为一个驱动因素，焦虑的消费者减少支出， 紧张的投资者可能拉低金融市场，这或许可以解释为什么政界人士和政府官员通常不愿意使用这个词。

While it's too early to say if the U.S. is heading into a recession, what's causing economists to raise their concerns over a downturn is a lot of uncertainty in the US economy right now.

尽管现在断言美国是否正走向衰退还为时过早，但当前美国经济中的大量不确定性正是引发经济学家对经济下滑担忧的原因。

There has been growing confusion over tariffs and other fast-paced economic policy changes from President Donald Trump's administration, like federal spending cuts and mass layoffs of federal workers.

围绕特朗普政府实施的关税及其他快速变化的经济政策，如联邦开支削减和大规模联邦雇员裁员， 人们的困惑日益加深。

That uncertainty is showing signs of a chilling effect on both the markets and the wider economy slowing demand investments and even consumer spending.

这种不确定性正显示出对市场和更广泛经济的寒蝉效应，减缓了需求投资，甚至影响了消费者支出。

Our matt egan explains why confusion is playing a big role in the current decline in economic confidence.

我们的马特·伊根解释了为何困惑在当前经济信心下滑中扮演了重要角色。

Confidence has been shaken, both in the economy and in the administration's agenda.

信心已受到动摇，无论是在经济层面，还是政府议程上。

If you don't make your product in America, however, under the Trump administration, you will pay a tariff, and in some cases, a rather large one.

然而，在特朗普政府治下，若不在美国生产产品，便需缴纳关税，且在某些情况下，这笔关税相当高昂。

President Trump's chaotic trade war, where tariffs are turned on and off again in the blink of an eye, are part of the problem.

特朗普总统那混乱的贸易战，关税政策如眨眼般频繁开关，构成了问题的一部分。
