Answer 1

　　奥巴马生平英文版：
　　Barack Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961, to Barack Obama, Sr. and Ann Dunham. His parents met while attending the University of Hawaii, where his father was enrolled as a foreign student. His mother was from heartland-of-the-U.S. Kansas, and his father from Kenya. Barack's parents eventually divorced, and after his mother remarried, he lived in Indonesia for a time before returning to Hawaii to live with his grandparents. He later moved to New York, where he graduated from Columbia University in 1983.
　　True to the values of empathy and service that his mother instilled in him, Barack put law school on hold after college and moved to Chicago, where he became a community organizer with a church-based group that was dedicated to improving living conditions in poor neighborhoods. For example, helping poor people work with service agencies to get their plumbing and heating fixed and to find jobs for unemployed. It was here that he realized it would take changes in our laws and politics to truly improve the lives of the people in these impoverished neighborhoods. A little known but impressive fact is that when Barack applied to Harvard Law School, he did not even indicate his race on his Harvard application.
　　Barack earned his law degree from Harvard in 1991, where he became the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review. He then returned to Chicago to practice as a civil rights lawyer and teach constitutional law. His advocacy work led him to run for the Illinois State Senate, where he served for eight years beginning in 1996. While in the Illinois State Senate, Barack served as chairman of the Public Health and Welfare Committee. In 2004, well into his U.S. Senate campaign, Barack wrote and delivered the keynote address at the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston, and became a rising star in U.S. politics. A few months later, he was elected to the U.S. Senate with a landslide 70% of the vote. Four months into his senate career, Time magazine named him "one of the world's most influential people," calling him "one of the most admired politicians in America." Barack formally announced his candidacy for the 2008 presidential election in Springfield, Illinois on February 10, 2007.
　　Barack is also an accomplished author. His 1995 book, Dreams from My Father, is a memoir of his youth and early career. The book was reprinted in 2004 with a new preface and an annex containing the text of his 2004 Democratic Convention keynote speech. The audio book edition earned Barack the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album.
　　In December 2004, Barack signed a contract to write three more books. The first, The Audacity of Hope, was published in October 2006. The book has remained at or near the top of the New York Times Best Seller list since its publication. It was also the theme of his 2004 keynote address. The second book will be a children's book to be co-written with his wife Michelle and their two daughters, with profits going to charity. The content of the third book has yet to be announced.
　　In August 2008, Barack was nominated by the Democratic party as their candidate to be President of the United States. Barack selected long-time and well-respected U.S. Senator Joe Biden as his running mate.
　　And in November 6th,2008,he won the campaign.
　　奥巴马生平：奥巴马出生于夏威夷。父亲是肯尼亚一名黑人经济学家，母亲是美国一名白人女教师。父母在奥巴马两岁的时候分手，在听说父亲1982年在肯尼亚死于车祸前，奥巴马只见过父亲一次，奥巴马跟着母亲和姥姥姥爷长大。
　　父亲贝拉克·奥巴马是一名在夏威夷念书的肯尼亚留学生。母亲安·邓纳姆是一个白人，原本来自肯萨斯州。当邓纳姆与老奥巴马结婚时，她刚好18岁。这一段婚姻很短暂，老奥巴马离家前往哈佛大学念经济学的博士学位，就把年轻的妻子和年幼的儿子巴里(那时他才两岁)抛下了，他没有钱带上妻儿同去。毕业后，他更是带着另一名美国女人露丝回到了肯尼亚，露丝成为他的第三任妻子，因为在家乡他早已娶了一任妻子。
　　父亲离开了，奥巴马跟着母亲长大。邓纳姆后来嫁给了一名印尼石油公司的经理罗罗·素托罗，素托罗由于工作的关系需要去雅加达，于是，邓纳姆带着6岁的奥巴马去了印尼。奥巴马在印尼度过了四年的童年时光。
　　10岁时，母亲与继父离婚，奥巴马回到了夏威夷，大部分的时间他和外祖父外祖母生活在一起。邓纳姆带着她与素托罗生的女儿玛亚又回到印尼。当时，邓纳姆生活十分困难，她自己在攻读人类学博士学位，还省吃俭用供儿子读书。奥巴马老少儿童时期奥巴马一家挤在一个很小的公寓里面。奥巴马的外祖父换过多份工作，先做过家具推销员，还当过一名很失败的保险经纪。外祖母在一家银行工作。但奥巴马竟然进了夏威夷普纳后私立学校，这说明小家伙很会念书，但家里负担不轻。夏威夷普纳后私立学校是夏威夷乃至全美最优秀的私立学校，具有百年历史，学费昂贵，但凡有点钱财地位的人无论如何都是要把孩子往里塞的。一旦进去了，父母脸上有光，小孩前程似锦。
　　一谈到这件事，邓纳姆总是半带自豪地认为，奥巴马继承了他父亲的智慧，沿着他父亲成功的道路在走。
　　在2004年7月，民主党召开全国代表大会，奥巴马被指定在第二天做“基调演讲”。所谓“基调演讲”，就是民主党人阐述本党的纲领和政策宣言，通常由本党极有前途的政治新星来发表，1988年做“基调演讲”的人就是时任阿肯色州州长的克林顿。奥巴马不负众望，他亲自撰写演讲稿，并发表了慷慨激昂的演说。在演说中他提出消除党派分歧和种族分歧、实现“一个美国”的梦想。
　　45岁的奥巴马演说极具魅力，灿烂的笑容更虏获许多民众的心。与过去有意竞选总统的黑人前辈相比，奥巴马是首位在初选前民调获得全国性支持的明日之星，打败2008年民主党总统候选人的热门人选之一的希拉里，成为民主党总统竞选人。
　　奥巴马在短短两年多的时间里就已在政坛造成一股旋风，甚至有人把“奥巴马现象”拿来与前总统肯尼迪1960年挟带强大人气进军白宫来相提并论。
　　奥巴马编年史
　　1961年8月4日生于美国夏威夷州檀香山
　　1983年获哥伦比亚大学文学学士学位;
　　1991年获哈佛大学法学院法学博士学位;

Answer 2

Barack Obama was born at the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a Luo from Nyang’oma Kogelo, Nyanza Province, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, a white American from Wichita, Kansas of mainly English, Irish and smaller amounts of German descent. His parents met in 1960 while attending the University of Hawaii at Manoa, where his father was a foreign student. The couple married February 2, 1961; they separated when Obama was two years old and subsequently divorced in 1964. Obama's father returned to Kenya and saw his son only once more before dying in an automobile accident in 1982.

After her divorce, Dunham married Lolo Soetoro, and the family moved to Soetoro's home country of Indonesia in 1967, where Obama attended local schools, such as Asisi, in Jakarta until he was ten years old. He then returned to Honolulu to live with his maternal grandparents, Madelyn and Stanley Dunham, while attending Punahou School from the fifth grade in 1971 until his graduation from high school in 1979.Obama's mother returned to Hawaii in 1972 for several years, and then in 1977 went back to Indonesia, where she worked as an anthropological field worker. She stayed there most of the rest of her life, returning to Hawaii in 1994. She died of ovarian cancer in 1995.
