The United States ranks fourth in both land area and population and is far
and away the world's largest national economy. The European Community has
more people may be more diversified than the United States, but it is in no
sense a single country; Japan's economy is half size of the United States.
FOR SHEER BULK THE UNITED STATES SIMPLY HAS NO PEERS.....
全敲上去了...请指教...谢谢

发帖数: 734 | 4 "Sheer bulk" means considering only the size of the economy.
"Sheer" means transparent, and here meaning looking directly at
the "bulk". The "bulk" is of course referring to the size of
the national economy.
"Peers" means other countries. The author is not considering EC
as a "peer", but its member nations individually would each be
considered to be a "peer".
no
