主语 The case

谓语 assumes

宾语 that Europe’s policymakers, however haltingly, are on course to solve their debt crisis; that the European Central Bank(ECB) has reduced the risk of a debt calamity with its recent provision of three-year liquidity to banks; and that the impact of fiscal austerity on growth will be brief and modest

单词 音标 中文词意

provision [prəˈvɪʒn] n.规定；条款；[经]供应品v.供给…食物及必需品

这句话的主语"The case"，可以把"for a mild downturn"看成主语的定语，但"the case for..."更像是一个约定俗成的说法，即“对于某事的依据是”，谓语"assumes"，宾语是三个并列的宾语从句： 1. "that Europe’s policymakers, however haltingly, are on course to solve their debt crisis"，其从句的主语"Europe’s policymakers"，系词"are"，表语"on course to solve their debt crisis"，其中"on course to"也可看作是一个相对固定的说法，---“在去往...的路上”，也就是“处于正确的道路上”。 2. "that the European Central Bank(ECB) has reduced the risk of a debt calamity with its recent provision of three-year liquidity to banks"，其主语"the European Central Bank"即"ECB"，谓语"has reduced"是现在完成时态，宾语"the risk of a debt calamity"，"of"结构修饰前面的"the risk"，"with"是方式状语表示“如何减少的风险的”。 3. "and that the impact of fiscal austerity on growth will be brief and modest"，句子为主系表结构，其主语"the impact of fiscal austerity"，而实际上更应该是将"impact on"合起来一起看，这也是同学们平时背的短语，"of"结构只是一下修饰"the impact"，系词"will be"，是一般将来时，表语"brief and modest"。

认为会出现轻度衰退的这种判断所依据的假设条件是：欧洲的决策者们---无论他们是多么犹豫不决---正在解决其债务危机；欧洲各央行已经通过最近向各银行提供3年期流动性的举措降低了发生债务灾难的风险；以及财政紧缩对于经济增长的冲击将是短暂而温和的。
