 U.S. officials say they will take a "hard look" at proposal for Syria to surrender its chemical weapons to internaional control to avoid a military strike. But the administration expressed "serious skepticism" about Syrian President Assad's intentions. Syria has consistently refused to destroy its chemical weapons in the past.

 
A new AP poll indicates that most Americans oppose the military strike on Syria despite a weeks-long White House campaign for action. 61% of Americans surveyed say they want Congress to vote against authorizing1 military strikes. Just 26% are in favor.
 
Officials in Chile now say they the Uruguayan man who survived after being lost in the Andes for 4 months was fleeing from the law. Raul Gomez was wanted for child sex abuse charges. He was rescued on Sunday after surviving for 4 months by eating rats and owls2.
 
And a long lost Van Gogh painting has been discovered in a Noweigan attic3. The painting was initially4 rejected by researchers because it was unsigned. But after 2 years of investigations5, experts say they are certain it was painted by the Dutch artist.

一幅凡高的已丢失很久的画在挪威的一个小阁楼里又找到了。调查者最初断定这幅画是假的而拒绝接受，因为画上没有签名。但是经过2年的调查，专家们说他们可以肯定，这幅画确是出自这位荷兰艺术家之手。
