NEW YORK- The five men facing trial in the Sept. 11 attacks will plead not guilty. They would state their criticisms of US foreign policy, the lawyer for one of the defendants said Sunday. Scott Fenstermaker, the lawyer for accused terrorist Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali, said the men would not deny their role in the 2001 attacks but“would explain what happened and why they did it.” Ali and four other men are accused of killing nearly 3,000 people in the nation's deadliest terrorist attack.The US Justice Department announced earlier this month that they will face a civilian federal trial just blocks from the World Trade Center site. Ali is also known as Ammar al-Baluchi. He is a nephew of the claimed 9/11 planner, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. Mohammed, Ali and the others will explain“their assessment of American foreign policy,” Fenstermaker said. “Their assessment is negative,” he said. Fenstermaker met with Ali last week at the US prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. He has not spoken with the others. But he said the men have discussed the trial among themselves. Fenstermaker was first quoted in The New York Times in Sunday's editions. Critics of Attorney General Eric Holder decided to try the men in a New York City civilian courthouse. It has warned that the trial would provide the defendants with a propaganda platform. Dean Boyd, a spokesman for the Department of Justice, said Sunday that while the men may attempt to use the trial to express their views, “we believe the courts and the federal judge may govern the trial. The course of justice will be led appropriately and with minimal break, as federal courts have done in the past.”

The celebration of International Women's Day (IWD) in 2011 was special as it marked the 100th anniversary of IWD. The United Nations’ theme for the 2011 IWD was “Equal access to education, training and science and technology: Pathway to decent work for women”. One hundred years ago, gender equality and women's empowerment were largely radical ideas. One hundred years later, there has been significant progress in women's empowerment and participation through determined advocacy, practical action and enlightened policy making. However, in too many countries and societies, women's social position is still low and lots of women are still trapped by poverty, discrimination, unemployment, illiteracy and violence. As a basic human right, education is a key driver of economic growth and social change and the basis of women's empowerment. The global economy is increasingly knowledge-driven, and requires an educated workforce able to apply the existing technology and to develop new science and technologies to combat poverty and adapt to emerging issues. As education is the key to greater empowerment for women, investing in women and girls through the education sector has therefore a positive effect on the well-being of their families, their communities and nations. Strengthening the bridges between education, training, science and technology and the labor market is important in order to promote equal opportunity to decent employment for women.

In today's society, working people can seldom find time to relax themselves in their busy schedules. They often work overtime because of too much work waiting in queue, which ends up causing a lot of physical and mental problems. However, more people are now aware that relaxation and stress-relief are necessary for life. One's health should never be sacrificed for a need to work hard. Indeed, finding time to relax makes people work more efficiently. Many people plan trips to spend their free time travelling with their loved ones. This may have been a luxury in the past, but it has become more common in recent years. Travelling at home and abroad has now become convenient and affordable. Going jogging and going to the gym have also become more popular, as they are rather convenient ways to exercise and stay fit. Exercising helps relax your body and has been shown to relieve mental stress as well. This demand for recreation and leisure service has also stimulated the economy, as new businesses are created to meet these needs. In sum, working hard is important, but having a good quality of life can actually facilitate your success at work. Knowing when and how to relax should be a part of well-balanced lifestyle. Take a walk outdoors, visit the gym, or go jogging. You will find that your time was not wasted, even if it was not spent working in your office.

There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals. Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase. Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
1-1、Our long-term goals mean a lot _____.
A、if we cannot reach solid short-term goals
B、if we complete the short-term goals
C、if we have dreams of the future

A、the goals that have been completed

B、we are overwhelmed
C、we will build up our confidence to achieve success

B、We should set up long-term goals.
C、Different kinds of goals in life.
