序言在全球化、国际化浪潮汹涌澎湃的的今天，不管是工作需要，还是应付各种各样的英语考试，学习英语、学好英语在当代社会已是势在必行。尤其是对于大学生而言，英语的好坏已经直接关系到个人的前途。英语如此重要，因此，学好它已经成了当务之急。
英语在个人生活、学习以及工作中越来越重要，为了学好英语，很多人“饥不择食”，没有选择好适合白己的学习方法，没有找到合适的教材，便匆匆忙忙开始与英语“打交道”，而如此盲目学习的结果便是“欲速则不达”。经过一段时间的学习，不仅英语成绩没有提高，能力没有提升，相反却对英语越来越不感兴趣，当学习成为一种负担而不是乐趣时，学习的成效便可想而知了。
文摘The federal government of the U.S. is the centralized U.S. governmental body established by theConstitution. The federal government has three branches: the legislative, the executive, and the judicial.Through a system of separation of powers or "checks and balances," （inspired by the work of theEnlightenment philosopher Montesquieu） each of these branches has some authority to act on its own, someauthority to regulate the other two branches, and has some of its own authority, in turn, regulated by theother branches. In addition, the powers of the federal government as a whole are limited by the Constitution,which leaves a great deal of authority to the individual states.
The seat of the federal government is in the federal district of Washington, D.C., often referred tometonymieally as "Washington".
