這個“年度總結”有些搞笑，“總結”，總得有個期限，萬一“百年一遇”的事情發生在限後一天，“總結”就成了“今年最重要事情之外的事情”，^_^。

此概括，截止到2022年12月上旬某天（不詳）。

總共96頁，美國雜誌，當然先說美國事兒，前麵說美國要事，七條加雜項近30頁。不細說了。

然後是世界大事，不到20頁（以前說文革時侃過，文革過後，牆內說“國際”都是“高級事兒”；美國說“國際”都是頭疼需要“出資”的事兒，*_*）。這裏主要說此“世界大事”。

五個標題：

Russia invades Ukraine

Queen Elizabeth II’s death

The effects of climate change

In brief: Political turmoil in the U.K., Halloween tragedy in Seoul and more

People in the news around the globe

其中的“俄國入侵烏克蘭”是除了後麵“失去的人物”外唯一有五頁之多的最長篇幅，超過美國所有國內題目（應該的，此事，該是新冠之後改變世界的頭等大事）。包括多幅照片，最感我的兩幅在此：

戰爭的禍及無辜，尤其是孩子，二圖勝似萬言。

有大祖的事兒嗎？在那個“In brief”中，說英國唐寧街10號常換人之後的第二條，如是說大祖：

China’s New Emperor

President Xi Jinping has become the most powerful leader of China since the days of Mao Zedong. In 2018, China’s ruling Communist Party removed the two-term limit on the presidency, allowing Xi to serve indefinitely. “He’s now president for life, president for life. And he’s great,” said U.S. President Donald Trump at the time. In October, Xi’s coronation as China’s de facto emperor was made complete when he was named to the third five-year term as head of the Communist Party. Over the past decade, Xi has preached that Chinese-style autocracy is a “new option for other countries who want to speed up their development” while overseeing policy blunders that undermine global prosperity. Beijing has led a campaign of human rights abuses against its Uighur Muslim minority and backed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, while Xi’s fanatical adherence to an increasingly untenable zero-COVID policy has locked down hundreds of millions of Chinese people and shuttered factories. Still, “the future is bright for Xi Jinping,” says professor Steve Tsang, director of the SOAS China Institute at the University of London, “and dark for everybody else.”

不要小看英國人，這位“唐”教授的英語是有語病的，比如“我全家人都悲慘隻有我自己非常開心”是病句。Xi, bright future; dark everybody else。倫敦大學的唐教授埋下一個“病句”。此刻“年度概況”後不幾天，唐教授的“病句”開始兌現: 習暗人人；人人暗習。

“世界人物”篇的第一名？您猜對了，Volodymyr Zelensky。

“失去的名人”（包括美國），第一名是戈爾巴喬夫，而且占了兩頁。

年度明言？您又猜對了，“I need ammunition, not a ride.” President Volodymr Zelensky said in response to a U.S. offer of evacuation from Ukraine.

再見，2022。（這句名言是本老漢的，^_^。）
