Background: 迈克尔杰克逊被证实已经逝世
Sources in Los Angeles, California say international pop star Michael Jackson has died after suffering cardiac arrest.
Los Angeles fire officials say Jackson was rushed to UCLA Medical Center Thursday after emergency officials found him not breathing at his home. He was given CPR, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, at the scene before being taken to the hospital. Later reports said he was in a coma at the hospital.
The Los Angeles Times newspaper quotes fire and law enforcement officials as saying the pop star has died.
The 50-year-old singer, dancer and songwriter became famous as a child in the 1970s while performing with his brothers in a pop group known as The Jackson Five. He went on to a solo career that spawned dozens of hits and pioneered the music video genre.
Jackson was dogged by controversy in his later years. He was acquitted in a child-molestation trial in 2005 and later struggled with financial problems. He was scheduled to begin a series of comeback concerts in London later this year; tickets for the shows, offered in March, sold out in minutes.

Notes:
1 cardia arrest：心搏停止,心脏停跳
2 CPR：=cardiopulmonary resuscitation 心肺复苏术
3 coma：昏迷。常用词组：be in a coma, 处于昏迷状态
4 spawn：造成,酿成。例：Poverty has spawned numerous religious movements. 贫困曾经引发了许多宗教运动。
5 dog: (灾难等)缠住。例：Injuries dogged the football team all season. 这个橄榄球队整个赛季都为队员受伤而困扰。
6 controversy：争论,辩论。例：facts that are beyond controversy. 无可争辩的事实。
7 acquit: 宣告...无罪,无罪释放[(+of)] 例：The jury acquitted her of all charges. 陪审团宣告她未犯所控诸项罪行。
8 child-molestation trial: 猥亵儿童案

Michael Jackson Remembered 感怀迈克尔•杰克逊
Background: 自迈克尔•杰克逊于六月二十五日不幸病逝后，他的家人首次现身于洛杉矶的一个颁奖仪式上。这个颁奖仪式是特地为追悼这位流行音乐巨星而举办的。
Janet Jackson told the audience at the Black Entertainment Television Awards that the entire Jackson family had wanted to attend the show, but it was too painful. She said she had been elected to speak on their behalf. "I'm going to keep it very short but I'd just like to say that to you Michael is an icon, to us Michael is family. And he will forever live in all of our hearts."
The actor and singer Jamie Foxx led the celebrity tributes, with an upbeat performance. He said there was no need to be sad and that the night was an opportunity to celebrate the singer's achievements.
As he made his way down the red carpet, before the show, Michael Jackson's father, Joe, was asked about the investigation into the circumstances surrounding his son's death.
He said he had a lot of concerns and confirmed that a second post-mortem examination had taken place.
He added that he'd been touched by the outpouring of tributes dedicated to his son.

Notes:
speak on their behalf 代表大家发言
forever live in all of our hearts 永远活在我们的心里
celebrity tributes 名人的缅怀
upbeat performance 充满活力的表演
an opportunity to celebrate 一个欢庆的机会
