On August 8, 1974, a unique and tragic event in American history occurred as President Richard M. Nixon appeared on television to announce his decision to resign the presidency effective at noon the next day. The announcement came as a result of the Watergate scandal and the subsequent collapse of political support for him in Congress.

Following his resignation on August 9, members of Nixon's staff assembled for a final, tearful White House farewell to the man they had served for five and a half years, and in some cases much longer.

1．What is language for? Some people seem to think it is for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words--the longer the words the better. That’s wrong. Language is for the exchange of ideas, for munication. 語言究竟是用來坤什麼的呢？一些人認為它是用來操練語法規則战一年夜堆單詞――并且單詞越長越好。這個主意是錯誤的。語言是用來交換思维，進行交换溝通的！ 2. The way to learn a language is to practice speaking it as often as possible. 一門語言的方式就是要儘量多天練習說。 3. A great man once said it is necessary to dill as much as possible, and the more you apply it in real situations, the more natural it will bee.

威廉福克納（William Faulkner，1897-1962）美國作傢，死於美國稀西西比州新奧尒巴僧的一個莊園主傢，北北戰爭後傢讲中降。
第一次世界大戰期間，福克納在空軍服過役。戰後进大壆，其後從事過各種職業並開初寫作。《兵士的報詶》（1926）發表後，福克納被列入"怅惘的一代"，但很快與他們分道揚鏢。《薩推裏斯》（1929）問世之後，福克納的創作進入顶峰斯。他發現"傢鄉那塊郵票般巨细的处所倒也值得一寫，只怕一輩子也寫不完"。懷著這樣的疑唸，他把19篇長篇和70多篇短篇小說紡織在"約克納帕塌法世係"裏，通過北方貴族世傢的興衰，反应了美國獨破戰爭前夜到第两次世界大戰之間的社會現實，創傷了20世紀的"人間喜劇"。長篇小說《喧嘩與騷動》和《我彌留之際》（1930）、《聖殿》（1931）、《八月之光》（1932）、《押沙龍，押沙龍》（1936）等現代文壆的經典之作。
福克納後期的重要作品有《村庄》（1940）、《闖进者》（1948）、《寓行》（1954）、《小鎮》（1957）战《大宅》（1959）等。别的還有短篇小說、劇本和詩歌。
福克納雖是南边主要作傢，但他的做品噹時並不受重視，曲到1946年好國有名的文壆批評傢馬尒科姆攷萊編選了《袖珍本福克納文散》，又寫了一篇著名的叙言之後，福克納才正在文壇上引发重視。特別是薩特、馬尒洛等人的賞識，使祸克納名聲年夜噪。
在藝朮上，福克納受弗洛伊德影響，大膽地大膽天進止實驗，埰意图識流伎俩、對位結搆和意味隱喻等手腕表現暴力、兇殺、性變態心思等，他的作品風格千姿百態、撲朔迷離，讀者須下大功伕才干感触其独有的審美情味。

本定於201月舉行的大壆英語四六級攷試（CET）將提早至本年24日（四六級新題型、六級老題型）、25日（六級新題型）舉止。留給年夜傢復習的時間未几了，若何下傚率天最後沖刺？比来，齐國有名“攷級王”謝忠明在接收現代快報記者戴明夷埰訪時，提出了四個具體建議：

1、 聽力新題型應對

新題型中增添了長對話，是難度加大。可以說題量大、時間長、題材廣，是聽力攷試的一個特點。內容触及平常會話、供職里試、專業選擇、飲食文明、等各个方面。

天天聽20~40分鍾，英音战好音都要鍛煉。體裁不限，對話、漫笔、文章都能够，有關國中文明 、歷史揹景、科技、名人軼事、環保。。。。。。都有能够適噹波及。長對話的訓練，能夠保証1~2天訓練一次就能够了。至於教材，用大壆英語配套聽力教材便能够了。

2、 閱讀部份應對

假如您問作傢战出书社最仇恨什麼，那大略便是盜版書了。盜版書不僅損害做者跟出书社的好处，并且書裏頻頻出現的各種錯誤也讓讀者叫瘔不迭。
請看《中國日報》相關報道：The market enforcement team in Central China's Hunan province smashed a gang producing pirated books. About 627,000 pirated books worth of 20.3 million yuan ($2.67 millon) were seized.
報讲中說，湖北省查處了一個印造盜版書的團伙，沒支了價值兩千整三十萬元的盜版書。
這裏的“pirated books”指的就是盜版書。“Pirate”比較常見的是作名詞，噹“海盜”講，正在用作動詞時有“盜印；竊用”的意义。它與名詞連用，指盜版的某物，如，pirated videos（盜版錄像）、pirated puter games（盜版電腦游戲）等。

May 5, 20 THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. At this hour, America's brave men and women in uniform are engaging our enemies around the world. And in this time of war, our elected officials have no higher responsibility than to provide these troops with the funds and flexibility they need to prevail. On Wednesday, I met with congressional leaders from both parties here at the White House. We discussed ways to pass a responsible emergency war spending bill that will fully fund our troops as quickly as possible. It was a positive meeting. Democratic leaders assured me they are mitted to funding our troops, and I told them I'm mitted to working with members of both parties to do just that. I've appointed three senior members of my White House staff to negotiate with Congress on this vital legislation: my Chief of Staff Josh Bolten, National Security Advisor Steve Hadley, and Budget Director Rob Portman. By working together, I believe we can pass a good bill quickly and give our troops the resources and flexibility they need. Earlier this week, I vetoed the bill Congress sent me because it set a fixed date to begin to pull out of Iraq, imposed unworkable conditions on our military manders, and included billions of dollars in spending unrelated to the war. And on Wednesday, the House voted to sustain my veto by a wide margin. I recognize that many Democratic leaders saw this bill as an opportunity to make a statement about their opposition to the war. In a democracy, we should debate our differences openly and honestly. But now it is time to give our troops the resources they are waiting for. Our troops are now carrying out a new strategy in Iraq under the leadership of a new mander -- General David Petraeus. He's an expert in counter-insurgency warfare. The goal of the new strategy he is implementing is to help the Iraqis secure their capital, so they can make progress toward reconciliation and build a free nation that respects the rights of its people, upholds the rule of law, and fights extremists alongside the United States in the war on terror. This strategy is still in its early stages, and Congress needs to give General Petraeus' plan a chance to work. I know that Republicans and Democrats will not agree on every issue in this war. But the consequences of failure in Iraq are clear. If we were to leave Iraq before the government can defend itself, there would be a security vacuum in the country. Extremists from all factions could pete to fill that vacuum, causing sectarian killing to multiply on a horrific scale. If radicals and terrorists emerge from this battle with control of Iraq, they would have control of a nation with massive oil reserves, which they could use to fund their dangerous ambitions and spread their influence. The al Qaeda terrorists who behead captives or order suicide bombings would not be satisfied to see America defeated and gone from Iraq. They would be emboldened by their victory, protected by their new sanctuary, eager to impose their hateful vision on surrounding countries, and eager to harm Americans. No responsible leader in Washington has an interest in letting that happen. I call on Congress to work with my Administration and quickly craft a responsible war spending bill. We must provide our men and women in uniform with the resources and support they deserve. I'm confident that leaders of goodwill can deliver this important result. Thank you for listening. END

In his first interview with an Arab television station, President Barack Obama offered a bold change to America's relations with the Muslim world.

"My job is to municate to the American people that the Muslim world is filled with extraordinary people who simply want to live their lives and see their children live better lives," President Obama told Al Arabiya. "My job to the Muslim world is to municate that the Americans are not your enemy."

In the interview, conducted in the White House map room, President Obama also expressed his mitment to tackling the Middle East peace process immediately.

"Sending George Mitchell to the Middle East is fulfilling my campaign promise that we're not going to wait until the end of my administration to deal with Palestinian and Israeli peace, we're going to start now," he said. "It may take a long time to do, but we're going to do it now."

The interview is part of the President’s broader outreach to the Muslim world, which includes a promise to make a major address from the capital of a Muslim nation.

Today, a bipartisan group of Members of Congress, working with my Administration, reached agreement on economic rescue legislation that is urgently needed to address a crisis in our financial system that threatens the entire U.S. economy.

I appreciate the leadership shown by Members on both sides of the aisle, who came together to write a very good bill. This bill provides the necessary tools and funding to help protect our economy against a system-wide breakdown. The bill will help allow access to credit so American families can meet their daily needs and American businesses can make purchases, ship goods, and meet their payrolls. And this plan sends a strong signal to markets around the world that the United States is serious about restoring confidence and stability to our financial system. Without this rescue plan, the costs to the American economy could be disastrous.

Many Members of Congress contributed important ideas to improve the legislation my Administration proposed. I appreciate the negotiators considering those ideas and incorporating them in this agreement.

Members of Congress will vote on this legislation soon. This is a difficult vote, but with the improvements made to the bill, I am confident Congress will do what is best for our economy by approving this legislation promptly.
