BERKELEY – The United States has just completed its third year of economic recovery, but the unemployment rate remains above 8%, and there are worrisome signs of a slowdown. So it is no surprise that jobs have become a major focus in the presidential campaign – or that the candidates have very different ideas about how to boost employment.
伯克利——美国刚刚走完了经济复苏的第三个年头，但失业率依然维持在8%以上，并伴有令人担忧的经济放缓迹象。就业因此顺理成章地成为总统竞选的重头戏，而且候选人提出了截然不同的方法来促进就业。
