Who dares to claim that he is 100 percent sure of success right from the outset and without taking any risk? There is no such thing as infallibility.

It will probably take another30 years to form a more mature and better established system in all fields of endeavor. The principles and policies under such a system will be better shaped.
1992年3月，联合国决定第四次世界妇女大会于1995年在中国首都北京召开，这使中国妇女的状况备受世界关注。新中国宣告了中国妇女在政治、经济、文化、社会和家庭生活等各方面均享有与男子平等的权利，她们和全体中国公民一样成为国家与社会的主人。中国的各种法律保障妇女与男子具有同等的权利和地位，具有同等人格和尊严。中国政府运用法律的、行政的和教育的手段消除对妇女的各种歧视，保护妇女的特殊权益。今天，中国妇女已享有中国社会几千年来从未达到、许多发达国家历时数百年后才得到承认的平等权利。

a savage and brutal war.
When the war began on January 18th, the authorities believed that the multi-national force was irresistible and that the war would be short and swift. But now, the situation seems quite the reverse; the war is likely to take at least several months before it blows itself out.
No matter how long the war lasts, it is undeniably a great tragedy. The region is now bristling with bombers, warships and soldiers. Saddam Hussein has already begun to make random bombing attacks on Israel and Saudi Arabia. He has even brazenly threatened to use missiles charged with biological or chemical warheads.
Recently, the problem of environmental pollution has emerged with the large oil slick that Saddam has intentionally created. This threatens all the wildlife in the area.
Whether or not the Gulf War is a just war is a hotly debated question.
Although most people agree with the deployment of soldiers in the region, a
