1:A project under way by the State Integrity Investigation, due out on March 19th, notes that some changes have been made in the light of past scandals.2:Mr Simpson thinks the ultimate solution lies in ending the culture of corruption, which would include prohibiting patronage (something he says is on the decline anyway), nepotism and the holding of two government jobs at the same time.

1:A FREIGHT train, its dozen cars loaded with coal covered in a light dusting of snow, snaked through the narrow valley, sometimes following the two-lane highway and sometimes crossing it.2:The valley was silent and snowy, and though it was two days into 2012 it could easily have been 1982, 1942 or 1922: coal has been mined in Appalachia and carried out by rail for well over a century.

1:一列货运火车装载着十二车煤炭，煤炭上覆盖着一层薄薄的白雪，火车迂回地行进于狭窄的山谷之间，时而沿着这一条双车道高速公路行驶，时而又穿过那一条。2:峡谷寂静而多雪，尽管这已经是进入2012年以来的的第二天了，然而在阿帕拉契亚，这样的一天也可以发生在1982年,1942年或者是1922年：一个世纪以来，煤炭在这里挖掘，并不断用火车运走。

1: This trend sheds light on one of the central mysteries of the recovery: why so many people have left the labour force. 2: The proportion of the working-age population that is working or looking for work (the participation rate) has fallen from 66% in 2007 to below 64% in January. This has been an important part of the reduction in the headline unemployment figure. 3: With fewer people entering the labour force, there are fewer job hunters to be counted as unemployed.

1:这一趋势使得经济复苏最核心之谜浮出水面：人们放弃劳动之谜。2:2007年适龄劳动人口中工作或正在求职的比例（参与率）为66%，而到了今年一月份，这一比例下降到了64%，这是占据报纸头版头条的失业率下降的主要原因。3:进入劳动力市场的人越少，被统计的求职人员也就越少。

1:That puts a different spin on a trend most economists have seen in a drearier light.2:They thought a lacklustre economy was suppressing participation by driving discouraged workers out of the labour market altogether, and that participation would rebound along with the economy.3:Mr Krueger agrees that part of the drop is due to lack of demand for labour because of the recession, but thinks something else is at work: the underlying trend in participation in the past decade has already been falling because of an ageing work force and a downdrift in participation by women.4:It may tick up in coming years as the young people now in college graduate.5:When they do, Mr Krueger notes, they will have more human capital, which will, with luck, earn them higher wages and boost the economy’s overall potential.6:Which would be all to the good, since they will have hefty student loans to repay.

1:这转变了大多数经济学家在不明朗的情势下看到的趋势。2:他们曾认为疲软的经济使得灰心丧气的劳动者退出劳动力市场，从而压制了参与率，经济复苏可以使得参与率回升。3:克鲁格先生赞同这样的观点：经济衰退降低了劳动力需求从而降低了参与率，但他认为这后面另有玄机：过去的十年里参与率已经有潜在的下降的趋势，这时由于劳动力老龄化以及女性参与率下降造成的。4:不过在接下来的几年里，参与率会由于现在读大学生毕业而再度上升。5:克鲁格先生还指出当这些大学生毕业后会拥有更高的人力资本，如果一切顺利的话，他们将因此获得更高的薪资，并促进经济总体潜力的增长。6:这样总得来说还是好的，因为他们须偿还巨额贷款。
