(单词翻译)

 模仿文本:The oil industry in Scotland1 is a huge business by any standards. It employs 450,000 people in Britain and last year paid taxes of six and a half billion pounds. That's almost $11 billion at current2 exchange rates. No surprise then that the oil and gas industry has been a key battleground in the run-up to the independence vote as I have been discovering. 

无论从何种标准来看,苏格兰的石油产业都是数一数二的。这里的石油产业保证了英国45万人的饭碗,去年纳税额是65亿英镑。以目前汇率来看相当于110亿美元。因此就我所了解的,油气产业成为苏格兰独立公投前夕的重要战场本就是意料之中的事情。
