Across Europe this scorching(灼热的，炎热的) summer, workers have struggled in the heat as wildfires raged(肆虐，猛烈进行) and critical infrastructure was shut down.
在这个酷热的夏天，欧洲各地野火肆虐，关键基础设施关闭，工人们在高温中艰难工作。
Here we look at the impact of the heatwaves on several major economies across mainland Europe – with the help of analysis from economists at the Dutch bank Triodos, who estimate a total of €180bn could be wiped off(抹去，消除) EU GDP by the heatwaves. In the UK, the green thinktank(智库，智囊团) Verdant said this week that the heat had already cost(使损失，使付出代价) the economy £4.4bn by the end of July.
这里，我们借助荷兰银行Triodos经济学家的分析，来审视热浪对欧洲大陆几个主要经济体的影响。他们估计，热浪可能导致欧盟GDP损失1800亿欧元。在英国，绿色智库Verdant本周表示，截至7月底，高温已使经济损失44亿英镑。
Research shows productivity tends to decline once temperatures breach(突破，超过) 30C. Analysts at Triodos assessed the hit to each country on the basis of factors including how many unusually hot days it has suffered, giving a broad-brush estimate – but each economy also faces its own particular struggles.(Triodos的分析师根据各国遭受的异常高温天数等因素评估了热浪对各国的影响，给出了一个粗略的估计——但每个经济体也面临着各自特有的困境。)
研究表明，一旦气温超过30摄氏度，生产力往往会下降。Triodos的分析师根据各国遭受的异常高温天数等因素评估了热浪对各国的影响，给出了一个粗略的估计——但每个经济体也面临着各自特有的困境。
