????本周二公布的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，2014年是英國經(jīng)濟(jì)自2008年金融危機(jī)以來表現(xiàn)最好的一年，經(jīng)濟(jì)增長了2.6％。

????英國國家統(tǒng)計(jì)局稱，2014年最后一季度，作為歐洲第三大經(jīng)濟(jì)體的英國，不僅彌補(bǔ)了原本高達(dá)6％的跌幅，而且其產(chǎn)出比起危機(jī)前的峰值還高出了3.4％。

????不過，在三季度，由于歐元區(qū)經(jīng)濟(jì)放緩的影響波及到英國出口商，再加之今年冬初氣候溫暖抑制了石油和天然氣產(chǎn)量，英國GDP漲幅確實(shí)從0.7％微降至0.5％。

????觀察人士稱，2015年上半年將可謂是英國的黃金時(shí)期，因?yàn)橛蛢r(jià)下跌會(huì)導(dǎo)致駕駛成本和家庭能源開支下降，而上述因素也將反映在英國的四季度GDP數(shù)據(jù)中。2014年12月，通脹年率降至0.5％，為有記錄以來的最低值，同時(shí)，9月至11月期間，失業(yè)率降至5.8％。目前，除了德國和西班牙以外，英國是唯一一個(gè)就業(yè)崗位數(shù)凈增長的主要經(jīng)濟(jì)體。

????The British economy had its best year since the 2008 crisis last year, growing 2.6%, according to data out Tuesday.

????The Office for National Statistics said that Europe’s third-largest economy in the final quarter of 2014 was 3.4% above its pre-crisis peak, having made good a peak-to-trough fall of 6%.

????Gross domestic product, the sum of all goods and services produced by the economy, did however slow a little to 0.5% from 0.7% in the third quarter, as the effects of the slowdown in the Eurozone caught up with U.K. exporters, and a mild start to the winter depressed oil and gas output.

????Observers said the U.K. is entering in something of a sweet spot in the first half of 2015, as the fall in oil prices leads to lower driving costs and household energy bills–factors that were still to be reflected in the 4Q GDP figures. The annual rate of inflation fell to 0.5% in December, the lowest since records began, while the jobless rate fell to 5.8% of the workforce in the three months to November. Along with Germany and Spain, the U.K. is the only major economy creating net jobs at the moment.
