我國今年7月份CPI同比上漲1.8%

China's consumer price index (CPI), a main gauge of inflation, grew 1.8 percent year on year in July, down from June's 1.9 percent, the National Bureau of Statistics announced last Tuesday.

國家統計局上週二公佈的數據顯示，今年7月份，我國的消費者價格指數同比上漲1.8%，較6月的1.9%有所下降。

The July data dropped for the third-consecutive month from 2.3 percent in April, when the CPI reached its highest level since July 2014.

今年4月以來，消費者價格指數已連續三個月出現回落。4月，CPI增幅達2.3%，創2014年7月以來新高。

On a month-on-month basis, the CPI rose 0.2 percent in July.

今年7月，消費者價格指數環比上漲0.2%。

NBS statistician Yu Qiumei attributed the moderated inflation mostly to eased food prices.

國家統計局統計師餘秋梅認爲，通貨膨脹趨緩主要是受到回落的食品價格的影響。

The price of pork rose 16.1 percent year on year in July, slowing from 30.1-percent rise recorded in June.

7月，豬肉價格同比上漲16.1%，較6月30.1%的增幅有所回落。

Since January, CPI has been calculated using a new comparison base and included more products and services, while slightly reducing the weighting of food.

自從今年1月份以來，消費者價格指數已通過使用一個新的對比基期來進行計算，並且其包含了更多地產品和服務，而輕微減少了食物的比重。
