Russian President Putin named Time magazine’s“Person of the Year”
Russian President Vladimir Putin was named Time magazine’s“Person of the Year”on December 19th.2007 for strengthening stability(稳定)that made Russia a world power again.
The magazine recognized Putin’s“extraordinary feat(技艺)of leadership in taking a country that was in a mess and bringing it stability,”said Richard Stengel,Time’s managing editor.

Putin recently supported vice-PM Dmitry Medvedev’s presidential bid,and said he would accept Medvedev’s offer to serve as prime minister if Medvedev is elected on March 2.

This year’s choice was a return to the magazine’s tradition of picking an individual rather than last year’s choice of“You”,which refers to anyone creating or using content on the World Wide Web.

Ever since news of widespread food recalls caused by a carcinogenic dye(颜料) broke, there has been confusion over possible links to the country of the same name, but Sudan officials say there is no connection whatever.
Sudan1 is a red industrial dye that has been found in some chilli powder, but was banned in food products across the European Union (EU) in July 2003.
Since the ban was put in place, EU officials have been striving to remove some food products from the shelves. So far 580 products have been recalled.
Last week Sudan’s Embassy in the United Kingdom asked the Food Standards Agency (FSA) for clarification of the origin of the dye’s name.
Omaima Mahmoud Al Sharief, a press official at Sudan’s Embassy in China, explained the purpose of the inquiry was to clear up any misunderstanding over links between the country and the poisonous dye.
"We want to keep an eye on every detail and avoid any misunderstanding there," she said. "Our embassy to Britain asked them how the dye got that name and whether the dye had something to do with our country. But they told us there was no relationship."
The FSA, an independent food security watchdog in Britain, received a letter from the Sudanese embassy last week.
"They asked us why the dye is named Sudan, however, we also do not know how it got the name," she said. "People found the dye in 1883 and gave it the name. Nobody knows the reason, and we cannot give any explanation before we find out."
Sudan dyes, which include Sudan1 to 4, are red dyes used for colouring solvents(溶剂), oils, waxes, petrol, and shoe and floor polishes. They are classified as carcinogens by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
【小题1】What does the underlined word mean in paragraph one?
A.Causing cancer. | B.Having side effect. | C.Containing poison. | D.Poisonous. |
A.The dye is often produced in Sudan. |
B.The dye has something to do with the country named Sudan. |
C.Nobody is sure of the origin of the name. |
D.Many foods produced in Sudan contain the dye. |
A.the Sudan government is paying much attention to the food safety |
B.Sudan1 is often used to be added to the food |
C.people didn’t realize the danger of Sudan1 until 2003 |
D.many food shops will be closed down |
A.Keep away from Sudan1 |
B.No Sudan1 dye links to the country |
C.How Sudan1 dye got its name? |

These days, Americans worry most about an economic recovery that President Obama calls "painfully slow". But on Saturday millions will remember the day al-Qaida terrorists flew airplanes into the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington. Another hijacked plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania when passengers rebelled. Close to three thousand people died that day. Next year will be a big anniversary, ten years since the day Americans call 9-11.
But this September eleventh comes at an uneasy time. A large number of Americans say they oppose plans to build an Islamic center near the World Trade Center site in New York. This week attention centered on a Christian minister(基督教事工) with a small following in the state of Florida.
Reverend Terry Jones said he would mark the 9-11 anniversary by burning copies of the Quran(可兰经). He said he wanted to send a message to Islamic extremists. He said, "We are not hateful toward Muslims. We are not aiming this at Muslims, we are aiming this at Sharia law(伊斯兰教教法)."
Political and religious leaders around the world had condemned him. The plan even led the State Department to warn American travelers to avoid places where protests(抗议) might take place.
President Obama said burning Qurans could endanger American troops and invite more extremism. Defense Secretary Robert Gates called Mr. Jones on Thursday to urge him to reconsider.
Administration officials called the idea of burning Qurans "un-American." But they also agreed that it would be within constitutional rights, like protesters who burn American flags. The Constitution guarantees free speech and bars the government from restricting the practice of religion.
1.According to this news article how many things made this September 11 uneasy? (No more than 1 word)
2.What did the State Department think would happen after Reverend revealed his plan? (No more than 4 words)
3.How did the government prevent the situation becoming worse? (No more than 9 words)
4.Why couldn’t the US government forbid Reverend to burn Qurans? (No more than 7 words)
