问题如下:
The privatization of an existing hospital is best described as:
选项:
A.a greenfield investment.
B.a brownfield investment.
C.an economic infrastructure investment.
解释:
B is correct.
Investing in an existing infrastructure asset with the intent to privatize, lease, or sell and lease back the asset is referred to as a brownfield investment. An economic infrastructure asset supports economic activity and includes such assets as transportation and utility assets. Hospitals are social infrastructure assets, which are focused on human activities.
基建投资有两种分类方式:
一种按照被投资物的状态:即未建/在建(greenfield)或者已经建成(brownfield),
另外一种按照被投资物的用途:
economic or social use, economic就是来支持经济活动的,例如铁路,公路
而social use就是社会活动的,例如医院、学校等。
题中的hospital对应social use,同时又是existing, 所以是brownfield.
请问题干如何翻译?
