    「背景綜述」

    You don't become the first black President of the United States at
age 47 without a lot of hard work. Barack Obama was a community organizer，
a law professor and a US Senator before being elected President. He is
anything but lazy. He clearly knows how to hustle.

    Someone who hustles always gives their best effort， especially when
it is not easy to do so. An athlete who hustles will dive on the ground
to catch the ball and put himself at risk to help his team. If you hustle
on a project at work， it means you get it done quickly ， but still do
it well.

    Recently， President Barack Obama gave a speech to a small group of
Intel employees. We were among the media at the event ， where Obama talked
about the need to hustle.
