President Trump posted on social media this afternoon
2
that the U.S will not go through with attacks on Iran that were scheduled for tomorrow.
3
He went on to say allies in the Middle East asked him not to.
4
Joining us now to break this down is CBS News political reporter Zach Hudak.
5
And Zach,
6
I guess just give us a little bit more of the
7
backstory of why the president's now standing down on this so-called scheduled attack.
8
Nicole, in a lot of ways,
9
this is a story that we've heard before over the past few months with the Iran war.
10
We have repeatedly seen the president use kind of a carrot and stick maneuver where he threatens that major attacks,
11
potentially total annihilation, are coming if there is not progress made.
12
And then he announces last minute,
13
right before said attacks, that there are serious talks happening.
14
And then a week or so goes by
15
and we get statements from the Iranians that progress is not being made
16
and the president issues yet another ultimatum or another threat.
17
So this seems in a lot of ways like a loop that the administration is stuck in.
18
And I want to emphasize that they're in a particularly tough position here being in a midterm year.
19
They really need to find a way to show that they're getting some sort of victory out of Iran.
20
So far, the result has been that the strait has been largely closed or much more difficult to navigate.
21
That's brought up prices.
22
And at a minimum,
23
they need to show Iran as a result of this is not going to be pursuing a nuclear weapon.
24
And frankly, they're not there yet.
25
Yeah, well, to your point,
26
how do they get out of this?
27
I mean, what is the administration saying with respect to the overall state of the war and negotiations?
28
They continue to try various efforts.
29
We've had several summits happen in Pakistan.
30
The Pakistanis have been particularly helpful for the administration in building trust throughout these negotiations.
31
That being said, it's not clear how they get out of it.
32
With this current system, it seems like we're very much stuck in this cycle.
33
I don't know at what point the president's threats stop meaning as much to the Iranians
34
because he has so many times issued them and then taken them away.
35
I want to turn to another topic just to switch gears for a second.
36
The president has settled a lawsuit against the IRS.
37
What more can you tell us about the terms?
38
Nicole, this was a lawsuit that involved in 2020,
39
a independent contract for the IRS leaking the president's and his son's tax returns.
40
So a major violation of law to do that.
41
He sued the federal government as a result of that.
42
And this is resulted in a settlement.
43
He had requested $10 billion.
44
But what the settlement does is it creates a $1.7 billion fund
45
that they're calling an anti-weaponization fund that would include money
46
that would go to folks who the administration feels the Biden administration weaponized the government against.
47
Those could be people as broad as folks who were prosecuted for January 6th incidents.
48
It also will allow that fund to issue formal apologies.
49
So this is an avenue for the administration to,
50
in some ways, rewrite what is kind of the official history for a lot of these folks who've been convicted of crimes.
51
And now if they get an official apology from the federal government,
52
that will really change the way they're perceived,
53
I would think, in the history books.
54
Well, Zach Hudak, keeping track of it all,
55
thank you so much for being with us.

关于本课
在本课中,学习者将练习如何使用与国际关系相关的词汇和短语,特别是关于美国与伊朗之间的紧张局势。通过观察与听力练习,增强对复杂对话的理解能力,从而提高口语表达能力。学习者将培养英语影子跟读(shadow speech)的技巧,这种方法能帮助他们更自信地进行对话,同时改善发音和语调。
关键词汇与短语
- 威胁 (threat) - 执行某种行为的警告。
- 协议 (agreement) - 各方达成的条款或条件。
- 中东盟友 (Middle East allies) - 在中东地区的合作国家。
- 核武器 (nuclear weapon) - 能够引致广泛破坏的武器。

- 法律 (law) - 一系列规定,旨在维护秩序和社会公正。
- 财政 (fund) - 用于某种目的的资金。
- 正式道歉 (formal apology) - 公开承认错误并请求宽恕的行为。
练习建议
要有效地进行英语影子跟读,学习者应专注于视频中的对话节奏与语调。由于本视频的语速较快,建议采取以下策略:
- 首先,观看视频并听取内容,而不尝试模仿。专注于理解主要思想。
- 之后,重复播放视频的特定片段,尝试跟随发音与语调进行英语影子跟读。
- 注意讲话者的情感表达,例如在威胁或宣布消息时的语气变化,这将帮助你更加生动地使用英语。
- 可以使用慢速播放功能,逐步提高速度,以适应正常语速。
- 最后,将所学的短语应用到自己的日常交流中,增强记忆效果。可定期回顾这些内容,利用看YouTube学英语的方式不断提高。
记住,持续的练习和反复的shadowing练习,能够显著改善你的发音与听力理解能力。不断挑战自己,在对话中融入新的词汇和表达方式,让学习更加有趣。
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。
