中国经济增长放缓:增长速度为7.4%

China\'s economy grew 7.4 percent in the first quarter of this year, the slowest rate in 18 months for the world\'s second biggest economy.
 
The growth rate exceeded what economists were expecting. But still, it was down from the 7.7 percent growth rate in the last three months of 2013.
 
Beijing set a modest target of 7.5 percent growth for 2014, as it transitions toward a more sustainable economy based on domestic consumption.
 
Chinese leaders appear for the moment to be tolerating the current pace of weaker growth, and have ruled out any major stimulus.
 
Earlier this month, though, China unveiled a modest stimulus package, ramping up spending on a railway project and low-cost housing.
 
China\'s economy is attempting to rebound from a prolonged slowdown, which follows three decades of staggering growth.

这一增长速度超过经济学家们的预期，但低于2013年第四季度7.7%的增长速度。

北京为2014年的经济增长速度设定为略为保守的7.5%。目前中国正转向基于国内消费的可持续经济发展模式。

中国领导人目前看来可以接受目前较缓慢的经济增长速度，并排除了采取任何重大刺激手段的可能性。

但本月早些时候，中国出台了一个温和的刺激方案，增加铁路项目和低成本住房建设的开支。
