| Bill Clinton took office (就职) on January 20th, 1993 and became the 42nd U.S. president (总统). He is the first U.S. president who was born after World War II (第二次世界大战). He is also one of the youngest of all U.S. presidents. Clinton was born in a poor family in 1946. Three months before he was born, his father William Blats died. When he was small, his mother remarried (又嫁给) Norger Clinton, so the boy's family name changed. In the summer of 1963, Clinton won a drama contest (戏剧比赛), so he was given a chance to visit the city of Washington (华盛顿). During his visit he met President Kennedy in the White House. From that time on, he made up his mind (决心) to become a president. |
