六级文章阅读:让他们有一个梦想

　　On the border issue, there has been some success: more border guards, smarter technology, tougher requirements on employers to verify the legality of their workforce plus the recession have halved the numbers caught crossing over the past five years. An increase in the number of visas available for the well-qualified could sail through the more-Republican Congress if submitted next year. A guest-worker programme is harder, but also less urgent in straitened times. Yet on the plight of the 11m, there has been no progress whatsoever. Republicans have in the past branded any attempt to regularise their position as amnesty, an ugly word that killed the last attempt at reform in 2007.

　　边境问题的确取得了一些成就：五年来，由于边防人力的增加，应用更智能的技术、更严格的雇工审查，加上经济衰退（很不幸）使非法越境的人数减了一半。增加合法申请签证数量一事明年一旦提交，在今日共和党日益主导的国会通过没什么问题。然而，就目前的经济情况来说，比起前几年，客工计划通过的可能性小了，就连紧迫性也不如从前了。但无论如何，面对目前1100万非法移民的困境，两党均无所作为。过去，共和党人把任何试图将非法移民合法化的行为定性为特赦，而正是特赦使07年最后一次改革尝试夭折了。

　　Man up

　　拿出点勇气来！
