    NEW YORK, Aug. 20 (Xinhua) -- Crude prices fell Monday as Hurricane Dean headed toward Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and away from the U.S. energy facilities along the Gulf Coast.
    As supply worries faded, concerns about the battered stock market's drag on global demand came to the forefront once more.
    Light, sweet crude for September delivery fell 86 cents to settle at 71.12 U.S. dollars a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
    However, the crude contract finished up from its intraday low of 70.05 dollars a barrel, after a Mexican oil company said it was halting production and as the Dow Jones industrials rebounded from earlier declines.
    In London, September Brent crude dropped 59 cents to settle at 69.85 dollars a barrel on the ICE futures exchange.
               
            听力和书面表达通常是我们学生的弱项,希望大家在英语朗读的方法下,并结合实际情况安排练习,不要一味模仿别人,要在练习过程中及时总结经验,包括时间安排等,让自己的考研英语水平得到一个很大的提升!
