　　6月27日CNN聽力：巴西總統羅塞夫遭彈劾 被控違背預算法

　　Most of the lawmakers in Brazil senate said they planto vote to move forward with impeachmentproceedings against Brazil's president. Teachers, youcan find the results of that vote at CNN.com.

　　This does not mean that Brazilian leader DilmaRousseff has been removed from power. If a simplemajority of the Senate votes in favor ofimpeachment proceedings, it means she has to leave the presidential palace for 180 days anddefend herself in a trial. Rousseff says she'll fight with every means possible to finish out herterm, which is scheduled to end in 2018.

　　Brazil is the largest and most populated country in South America. It's the continent's largesteconomy. It's a regional leader. Because of all that, and the challenges it faces as it prepares tohost the Summer Olympics, officials around the world are watching.

　　SHASTA DARLINGTON, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Dilma Rousseff is one ofthe most unpopular presidents in Brazil's history, possibly in the world. So, what happenedafter she was reelected in October 2014?

　　SUBTITLE: Why Brazil wants to impeach Rousseff.

　　DARLINGTON: Well, to start with, the economy is tanking. Many call it a depression, highunemployment, high inflation, and that means a lot of Brazilians frankly aren't in the mode toput up with political corruption. Investigators had already started to reveal a bribery scandalinvolving the state-run oil company Petrobras before Rousseff's reelection.

　　But it snowballed afterwards with accusations against top business leaders and politicians inRousseff's Workers Party. That meant that while Rousseff herself wasn't implicated, millions ofBrazilians have taken to the street and with public opinion in their favor, oppositionlawmakers decided to forge ahead with an impeachment motion in Congress, accusingRousseff not of corruption, but a breaking budget laws to try and hide the sorry state of theeconomy ahead of reelection.

　　Now, the impeachment proceedings will drag on for months. All of this however is going toplay out on a global stage as Brazil gears up for the Olympic Games in August.
