While this is causing alarm among some in the United States, Asia, so far, appears to be reacting calmly. 　　美国政府现在距引发国债到期违约的期限还有不到两个星期的时间。虽然这在美国和亚洲某些人中引起警觉，但是到目前为止都还反应冷静。 　　Will default happen? 　　Most analysts consider it unlikely the U.S. government will default on its debt. And there is little evidence yet of major anxiety among Asias central bankers, major market players and other key investors from the region. 　　大部分分析家都不认为美国会拖欠债务。而且也没有什么证据显示，这在亚洲各国中央银行、大投资公司、和该地区的其他主要投资者中引起多大的焦虑。 　　China is the United States largest creditor, holding more than $1 trillion of Americas debt, followed by Japan, which has a stockpile of about $900 billion. 　　中国是美国的最大债权国，拥有超过一万亿美元的美国国债。其次是日本，拥有大约9千亿美元的美国国债。 　　U.S. lawmakers and the Obama administration are in contentious negotiations over authorizing additional government borrowing before a $14.3 trillion debt limit is reached on August 2. 　　美国国会议员和奥巴马政府现在就美国政府借贷的14点3万亿美元上限于8月2日到期前，是否可以额外借贷的问题，进行紧锣密鼓的谈判。 　　Nervous investors 　　David Cohen, director of Asian forecasting at Action Economics, an online consulting company in Singapore, says investors in Asia, like the rest of the world, are nervous about the U.S. debt standoff. 　　新加坡一家网上金融咨询公司的亚洲金融部主任科恩表示，就像世界其他地区一样，亚洲的投资者对美国的国债僵局也感到紧张。 　　I think theres a recognition that a default by the United States could potentially trigger a global financial crisis that could derail the global economic recovery. But, at the same time, just as weve seen in the pricing in the markets, people still expect that the Congress and the president will come up with some kind of deal before the deadline so that it doesnt trigger a default by the United States, said Cohen. 　　科恩说：“我想，大家都认为，美国万一到期违约可能会引发全球金融危机，从而使全球的经济复苏脱轨。但是与此同时，就好像我们在市场上看到的价格一样，人们仍然预期国会和奥巴马总统会在期限前达成某种协议，使不至于引发美国拖欠债务。” 　　Tim Condon,
