有betty的地方就有答疑~http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201209/201209061018576342455.mp3The death of Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi on August 20th has come as a shock to many. Meles was an important and influential voice, not only in his country, but in Africa as a whole. The United States joins with the Ethiopian people, and especially members of the prime minister's family, in mourning his loss and honoring his life's work.
Meles worked tirelessly to bring peace and stability in Ethiopia and to promote Africa's place in the world stage. Taking power from a military junta in 1991, he focused on his country's security and economic development, leading a war-torn and poverty-stricken nation to become one of the fastest-growing economies in Africa. He also deserves recognition for his lifelong contribution to Ethiopia's development and his commitment to its poor.埃塞俄比亚首相Meles Zenawi于八月二十日死亡的消息轰动一时。Meles是埃塞俄比亚，及至全非洲的一位极具影响力的风云人物。美国与埃塞俄比亚人民一道，特别是与首相家属一道，悼念他的逝世，颂扬他卓越的一生。
Meles为埃塞俄比亚的和平与稳定殚精竭虑，在世界的舞台上提升了非洲的地位。自1991年推翻军阀上台以来，他专注于埃塞俄比亚的安全与经济发展，将一个战乱不断、贫困落后的国家建设成为非洲经济发展最快的国家之一。值得注意的是，他还为埃塞俄比亚的发展与脱贫贡献了一生。
