　　Davidson’s article is one of a number of pieces that have recently appeared making the point that the reason we have such stubbornly high unemployment and declining middle-class incomes today is largely because of the big drop in demand because of the Great Recession, but it is also because of the advances in both globalization and the information technology revolution, which are more rapidly than ever replacing labor with machines or foreign workers.

　　重點(diǎn)詞匯：

　　stubbornly, decline, advance, recession, globalization, revolution, replace

　　重點(diǎn)短語(yǔ)：

　　because of, make the point, both … and…

　　解析：
