美国就业人数增加，失业率不减The U.S. economy added 103,000 jobs in September, but the nations unemployment rate held steady at 9.1 percent for the third straight month. Although Septembers job growth was stronger than most economists were expecting, it is still not growing fast enough for the millions of Americans looking for work.美国的就业人数在9月份增加了10万3千，但全国的失业率却连续三个月维持在9.1%。尽管9月份的就业增长比大多数经济学家预期的都强，可还是不能满足数百万苦苦找工作的美国人的需要。 In many U.S. cities, frustration over the scarcity of jobs is spilling out into the streets in the form of protests, like the Jobs Not Cuts rally in Washington.在很多美国城市，缺乏工作的困扰正在引起一波又一波的街头抗议，就像首都华盛顿出现的这场“要工作不要裁员”的示威活动。 Many, including rapper Godfrey James, say lawmakers are not doing enough to help unemployed Americans.很多人，包括戈弗雷·詹姆斯，都说国会议员在帮助失业的美国人方面做得不够。 Cause its another dark night when the U.S. is needing light, said James.
