Back in July, the June inflation figures killed off(使…彻底消失；扼杀) chances of a rate rise; yesterday, however, the September inflation figures all but guarantee(几乎保证) a rate rise next week.
今年7月，6月的通胀数据让加息的可能性化为泡影；然而昨天，9月的通胀数据几乎保证了下周将会加息。
The September figures are a bit quirky(古怪的；离奇的) because the Bureau of Statistics(澳大利亚统计局) published both the monthly and old quarterly ones.
9月的数据有点古怪，因为统计局同时发布了月度数据和旧的季度数据。
The monthly measure had annual inflation jumping up from 4.0% to 4.3%; while the quarterly measure – which the RBA has in the past said was more important – remained steady at 3.9% (and if anything fell very slightly):(月度指标显示年通胀率从4.0%跃升至4.3%；而季度指标——澳联储过去曾表示这更重要——则稳定在3.9%（甚至可以说略有下降）：)
