每日一詞 48 scandal：丑聞/丟臉的事

今天學(xué)的詞是scandal。Scandal就是丑聞，丟臉的事。你肯定會(huì)說(shuō)，噢，這個(gè)詞我熟悉，聽多了。報(bào)導(dǎo)說(shuō)，最近兩年來(lái), "...national and local scandals have polluted the political atmosphere for GOP candidates," 全國(guó)和地方上出現(xiàn)的丑聞污染了共和黨候選人的政治氣氛。

全世界各地都有丑聞，舉不勝舉。水門事件迫使美國(guó)前總統(tǒng)尼克松辭職下臺(tái), "Watergate scandal forced Nixon to resign." 臺(tái)灣總統(tǒng)陳水扁和他家人的丑聞 - "scandals surrounding Taiwan President and his family," 導(dǎo)致人們靜坐示威要他下臺(tái)。上海的陳良宇因腐敗丑聞被免去職務(wù), "A Shanghai official was fired due to financial scandal." 還要舉例子嗎?夠了吧!今天學(xué)的詞是scandal...
