正在创建课程...
1
Mr. Lansky, why are the American authorities after you?
2
Because a newspaper man started a campaign against me,
3
and it snowballed to such an extent that I guess it can't be stopped anymore.
4
I was singled out for some reason.
5
They needed an image.
6
and this has gone to an extent where it just snowballed and I don't know how far it's going to go.
7
And when did the snowball start from it?
8
Well, actually it started about 1965 when some newspaper man wrote an article that I have $300 million.
9
Well, I wish I had a million dollars.
10
I said, many more things, remember, have been said about me.
11
They accuse me of making a president.
12
Now, I don't know Mr. Nixon any more than what I read in the newspapers.
13
The closest I ever got to him is seeing him on television.
14
They claim I have 50 percent of Lebanon casinos, 50 percent of Monte Carlo.
15
The Roosevelt sent me to visit Batista on a mission.
16
Now how ridiculous can we really get?
17
This is just a global lie.
18
Say it long enough and you'll get the people to believe it.
19
So you feel that you are a victim of public persecution?
20
I sure do.
21
Mr. Lansky, what does the name Jewish Mafia mean to you?
22
You know, I never heard that until I read it in the Israeli newspapers.
23
Why, it's most ridiculous.
24
Are there many Jews in the gambling business?
25
Well, when you say many, you'd have to judge by percentage.
26
I think if you took the percentage of the gambling business in the United States, took the Jews, you would find them maybe in their proportion.
27
Why is it said that you are the head of the organized crime in the United States?
28
Well, that's the same principle that started the other gossip it.
29
That's most ridiculous.
30
It's the news media again.
31
It's the follow -up of the first thought.
32
It was never said about me before years ago.
33
All this came about just in the last few years.
34
I didn't know as I was growing older it's going to get worse.
35
Is there an organized crime is there i have no knowledge
36
of it are you a religious jew no i'm not a religious jew
37
and what i'm a jew in my heart what are your connections with the joe special just friendly
38
mr lansky how do you reconcile the accusations against you in so many publications with your claim of innocence.
39
How do I reconcile it?
40
Well, it's from the same source.
41
They started the publicity they could never stop.
42
And I was told by a good authority that they'll never stop.
43
They have too big an investment in me now.
44
Now, I have been under surveillance for many years now, maybe for the last ten years,
45
and I'm sure if these men didn't find anything against me,
46
who have every resource at its hand,
47
they should know whether I'm in any wrong activities or not.
48
They would know much better than the writers.
49
Do you want to become an Israeli citizen?
50
Yes, I do.
51
Mr. Lansky, did you invest money in business in Israel, or do you intend to invest money?
52
No, I'm retired.
53
And I would like to stay as a retired man in Israel, just like any other retired Jew.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
