The wrld is nw hlding ut hpe that hina, with its assive ptential, will serve as the engine t fuel glbal eni grwth.

But hinas real eni grwth slwed sharply t 6.8 perent in the tber-Deeber quarter. Fr hina, this rate f eni expansin ust be as disappinting as negative grwth is

fr apan. Beiing has set an ffiial gal f ahieving a iniu annual grwth rate f 8 perent -- a pae it regards as iprtant t ensuring b seurity.

The hinese gvernent is apparently nfident the natin will ahieve the iniu grwth target f 8 perent in 2009. At the rld Eni Frus annual eeting f plitial and business leaders in Davs, Switzerland, hinese Preier en iaba stressed the hinese eny began t shw signs f revery late last year.

The rati(比率) is nsiderably lwer than the 70 perent fr the United States and the nearly 60 perent fr apan. That is beause the iddle lass - the grup that shuld lead nsuer spending - is still relatively sall in hina, where the benefits f the natins strng eni grwth in reent years have stly eluded rural villages and lw-ine earners.

56. Arding t the reprt, in the last quarter f 2008, hinas real eni grwth was at least ______less than planned annual grwth rate.
