Median income fell last year from $52,163 to $50,303, wiping out a decades worth of gains to hit the lowest level since 1997. Poverty jumped sharply to 13.2 percent, an 11-year high.虽然全美各个群体的家庭收入普降，但是中低收入者的跌幅更大。去年，（家庭）收入的中位数从52163美元降低到50303美元，达到了1997年以来的最低点，相当于十年的财富收益蒸发殆尽。贫困人口的比例则飙升至13.2%，创下了11年来的新高。No one should be surprised at the increased disparity. Analysts attributed the widening gap to the wave of layoffs in the economic downturn that have devastated household budgets. They said while the richest Americans may be seeing reductions in executive pay, those at the bottom of the income ladder are often unemployed and struggling to get by.对于日益扩大的收入差距，我们不应大惊小怪。经济低迷时期的裁员风潮导致家庭的可用开支急剧减少，分析师认为这才是导致收入差距扩大的罪魁祸首。他们认为，虽然最富裕的美国人也可能发现收入缩水，但那些工资最低的人才是真正的受害者，因为他们经常遭到解雇，艰难度日。中口2010年春季试题汉译英(第十届全国人大常委会委员（a Standing Committee member of the Chinese National Peoples Congress (NPC)）朱相远于2010年1月4日在人民网发表的一篇题为2010年翩然而至拥抱下一个“十年”的文章)原文： 2010年翩然而至，全球24个时区的万千钟声，此起彼伏，宣告在这人类新千年中，一个10年代的终结，又是另一个10年代的开始。在开局的10年中，中国经济在前9年连续9年保持着9%以上的增长。最后一年，虽受国际金融风暴影响，但依然能保持8%的高增长。 中国犹如国家栋梁，力挽狂澜，使全球目光，再次聚焦于东方。一年多的实践，终使曙光再现。全人类定能以集体的智慧，攻坚克难，度过难关，必将是柳暗花明又一村的新局面。汉译英原文出处及参考译文：拥抱下一个“十年”To embrace the incoming decade2010年翩然而至，全球24个时区的万千钟声，此起彼伏，回荡于我们星球的寥廓苍穹。这并非一般的辞旧迎新，而是人类新千年中，00年代的终结，10年代的伊始。2010 has come trippingly and gracefully with thousands of bells ringing one after another in 24 times zones of the world to reverberate in the boundless sky of our planet for the arrival of the New Year.
