House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi does not call the assistance a bailout, but (1)___________________.
众议院议长南希·佩洛西没有把这笔援助款称为救助，而是称为贷款。她认为这笔贷款对美国经济总体健康至关重要。
"It wasn't about lending to automakers; it was about the survival of an industry," Pelosi said. "The survival of the auto industry is essential to a strong industrial, technological and manufacturing base in our country. And that industrial base is essential to our national security."
佩洛西说：“这不仅关乎贷款给汽车厂商，而且关系到一个行业生死存亡的问题。汽车工业的生存对在我们国家建立起一个稳固的工业、科技和制造业基地是非常必要的。而且这个工业基地对于维护国家安全也至关重要。”
Pelosi, along with about a dozen other U.S. lawmakers, toured the Auto Show during the first day of the media preview.
