2. World's No 1 exporter

China edged past Germany in 2009 to become the top exporter, yet another sign of its rapid rise and the spread of economic power from West to East.

Total 2009 exports were more than $1.2 trillion. That was ahead of the 816 billion euros ($1.17 trillion) forecast for Germany by its foreign trade organization, BGA.

China's new status highlights its growing presence as an industrial power, major buyer of oil, iron ore and other commodities and, increasingly, as an investor and key voice in managing the global economy.

2、成為世界第一大出口國

2009年，中國超過德國，成為全球最大出口國，這是中國迅速崛起、世界經濟重心東移的又一標志。

全年出口總額超過1.2萬億美元，超過德國貿易委員會對德國出口額所做出的8160億歐元（1.17萬億）的預測。

這一事實表明中國日益成為一個工業化大國，成為石油、鐵礦石和其它重要物資的主要購買者，并日益成為全球經濟中的一個投資者，扮演重要角色。
