It marked the sharpest inflation rate since a 6.8 percent jump in November 1998, when South Korea was in the midst of the 1997-98 Asian financial crisis.</p> <p>-spike: 급등</p> <p>-in the midst of: ~하는 가운데/ 한창일 때</p> <p>3) South Korea faces growing inflationary pressure, as crude oil and other commodity prices rose due to the protracted war between Russia and Ukraine, and global supply disruptions.</p> <p>-inflationary: 인플레이션의/에 의한</p> <p>-protracted: 오래 계속된(=prolonged)</p> <p>원문: <a href="https://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20220705000121"><u>https://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20220705000121</u></a></p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>2. Abortion ruling prompts variety of reactions from states</strong></p> <p>1) The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday <a href="https://apnews.com/article/abortion-supreme-court-decision-854f60302f21c2c35129e58cf8d8a7b0">overturned Roe v. Wade</a>, the 1973 decision that had provided a constitutional right to abortion. The ruling is expected to lead to abortion bans in roughly half the states, although the timing of those laws taking effect varies.</p> <p>-overturn:(판결 등을) 뒤집다, 번복시키다</p> <p>-constitutional: 헌법의</p> <p>-ruling: 결정, 판결</p> <p>2) Some Republican-led states will ban or severely limit abortion immediately, while other restrictions will take effect later. At least one state, Texas, is waiting until after the Supreme Court issues its formal judgment in the case, which is separate from the opinion issued Friday and could take about a month.<
