据路透社4月26日纽约报道,根据伦德伯格公司26日发布的全国燃料调查结果,美国普通汽油的零售价格在过去两周里上涨了大约5%至每加仑2.58美元。
此次调查的发布人T·伦德伯格指出,过去两周每加仑上涨13美分把美国的汽油价格推高到了今年迄今为止的最高点。然而,美国目前汽油零售价格仍远远低于一年前的每加仑3.69美元。
伦德伯格说,导致美国汽油价格在过去两周里上扬的主要原因是原油价格上涨。
调查结果还显示,美国大陆调查地区中汽油零售价格最低的地方是亚利桑那州的图森,每加仑2.2美元,而最高汽油零售价格是在洛杉矶,每加仑3.3美元。

U.S. gas prices rose around 5 pct in late April -survey
NEW YORK, April 26 (Reuters) - The average price of regular-grade gasoline in the United States rose about 5 percent in the past two weeks to $2.58 per gallon, according to the Lundberg survey released on Sunday.
The 13 cent per gallon increase brought U.S. gasoline prices to their highest point so far in 2015, according to Trilby Lundberg, publisher of the survey. Still, prices are substantially lower than one year ago, when gasoline cost around $3.69 per gallon.
Lundberg said the increase was mostly due to higher crude oil prices.
The lowest-price gasoline in the survey area of the 48 contiguous U.S. states was in Tucson, Arizona, at $2.20 per gallon. The highest price was in Los Angeles, at $3.30 per gallon.
