WASHINGTON – Barack Obama swept to victory as the first black president in the US history Tuesday night in an electoral college landslide that overcame racial barriers as old as America itself. "Change has come," he told a huge group of cheering supporters.
In his first speech as victor, Obama catalogued the challenges ahead. "The greatest of a lifetime," he said, "two wars, a planet in danger, the worst financial crisis in a century."
He added, "There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as president, and we know that government can't solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face."
The son of a black father from Kenya and a white mother from Kansas, the Democratic senator from Illinois sealed his historic triumph by defeating Republican Sen. John McCain in a string of wins in hard-fought battleground states -- Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Iowa and more.
In his speech, Obama invoked (引用) the words of Lincoln and echoed John F. Kennedy.
"So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in (努力投入) and work harder," he said.
He and his running mate, Joseph Biden of Delaware, will take their oaths（宣誓）of office as president and vice president on Jan. 20, 2009.
Obama will move into the Oval Office as leader of a country that is almost certainly in recession (不景气), and fighting two long wars, one in Iraq, the other in Afghanistan.
Obama has said his first order of presidential business will be to tackle the economy. He has also pledged to withdraw most US combat troops from Iraq within 16 months.
【小题1】What is special about Barack Obama, the newly-elected president of the United States?

     Not all awards are as noble as the Nobel Prize. Even though most countries have a system for recognizing,
honoring and rewarding people who have done something good in their countries, there are now hundreds of
awards and awards ceremonies for all kinds of things.
     The Oscars are probably the most famous, a time for the (mostly) American film industry to tell itself how
good it is, an annual opportunity for lots of big stars to give each other awards and make tearful speeches. But
it's not only films-now there are also Grammies, Brits, the Mercury Prize and the MTV and Q awards for music.
In Britain, a writer who wins the Booker prize can expect to see their difficult, literary novel hit the bestseller lists
and compete with the "Da Vinci Code" for popularity. The Turner Prize is an award for a British contemporary
artist-each year it causes controversy (争论) by apparently giving lots of money to artists who do things like
display their beds, put animals in glass cases or-this year-build a garden shed.
     Shakespeare never won a prize, nor did Leonardo da Vinci or Adam Smith or Charles Dickens. It would be
possible to say, however, that in the past, scientists and artists could win "patronage" from rich people-a king
or a lord would give the artist or scientist money to have them paint their palaces or help them develop new
ways of making money. With the change in social systems across the world, this no longer happens. A lot of
scientific research is now either funded by the state or by private companies. Perhaps awards ceremonies are
just the most recent face of this process. However, there is more to it than that. When a film wins an Oscar,
many more people will go and see it, or buy the DVD. When a writer wins the Nobel Prize, many more people
buy their books. When a group wins the MTV awards, the ceremony is seen by hundreds of thousands of
people across the world. The group sells lots more records.
     Most awards ceremonies are now sponsored by big organizations or companies. This means that it is not
only the person who wins the award who benefits-but also the sponsors. The MTV awards, for example, are
great for publicizing not only music, but also MTV itself! On the surface, it seems to be a "win-win" situation,
with everyone being happy, but let me ask you a question-how far do you think that publicity and marketing are
winning here, and how much sincere recognition of achievement is taking place?

[     ]
A an official position in the government
B the works of ancient scientists and artists

[     ]
A. How does the social system in history develop across the world?
B. Why can someone win a prize and why not for someone else?
C. Why have all these awards and awards ceremorues appeared recently?
D. Why did Shakespeare, Leonardo da Vinci, Adam Smith and Charles Dickens never wm prizes?
