……坐在议长正对面——头衔奇妙地叫做‘追忆官’（Remembrancer）。[编者注：如果想看些关于伦敦金融城以及离岸金融罪恶的高能有趣、略带被害妄想风格的吐槽，我推荐尼古拉斯·沙克森（Nicholas Shaxson）写的《宝藏岛》（Treasure Islands）——http://treasureislands.org/]
…to sit opposite the speaker - the wonderfully named Remembrancer. [Edit: For some highly entertaining, if slightly paranoid, ranting about the City and the evils of offshore finance I can recommend "Treasure Islands" by Nicholas Shaxson - http://treasureislands.org/]

……大企业，尤其是金融公司，拥有极其丰富的手段来确保只缴纳极少甚至在某些情况下完全不用缴税。对于门外汉来说，一本揭露这一问题的入门级好书是沙克森的《宝藏岛》（Treasure Islands）（http://www.amazon.com/Treasure-Islands-Uncovering-Offshore-B...）。
…corporates, especially financial companies, have very extensive means to ensure minimal or even, in some cases, no tax is ever paid. A preliminary and revealing book on this issue for laymen is Shaxon's "Treasure Islands" (http://www.amazon.com/Treasure-Islands-Uncovering-Offshore-B...).
我很好奇他们是从哪儿搞到这批猛料宝库的？另外，我强烈推荐尼古拉斯·沙克森的书《宝藏岛》（Treasure Islands）（http://www.amazon.com/Treasure-Islands-Uncovering-Offshore-B...），以便理解这个问题的严重性及其历史背景（没错，这方面活动的增长轨迹很容易追溯）。

Also, I highly recommend the book Treasure Islands by Nicholas Shaxson (http://www.amazon.com/Treasure-Islands-Uncovering-Offshore-B...) to understand the enormity of the problem and its historical context (yes, the growth in activity is easily traced).
