GDP

1.In the two years since the housing bust started in earnest, the contraction in homebuilding has taken around one percentage point a year of GDP growth.

在房市泡沫破裂正式开始以来的两年中，住房建筑业的衰退使GDP年增长率每年大约减少一个百分点。

2.Growth in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) decelerated significantly, from 10.5 per cent in real terms in 2000 to a mere 0.1 per cent in 2001.

本地产总值的实质增长由2000年10.5%大幅减至2001年仅有0.1%。
