问答题

Rewrite the following sentences to make them more appropriate for oral communication:

Rampant wrongful prosecutions terrorize innocent people—everywhere. The scientific community is not immune to this. I know because I was a victim. I am a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) who was accused by the US government of fraud and questionable connections to Chinese entities. Earlier this year, I was finally exonerated—it took 2 years. I am painfully aware, however, that I am the luckiest among the unlucky.

我的答案：

Improper prosecutions are in flood, people around the world are scared, as same as the scientific community. You might ask why do I know, because I was a victim. I’m a professor at MIT. However, the U.S. government called me a liar, and believed I had suspicious ties to Chinese entities. Earlier this year, I was found not guilty—it took me 2 years. Nevertheless, I’m painfully aware that I am the luckiest among the unlucky.
