The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences said Wednesday that actor Will Smith refused to leave after hitting Chris Rock at Sunday's Oscars ceremony.
The academy said it is considering actions against Smith for violating the group's standards of conduct. Such actions could include suspension, removal from the academy, or other measures.
During the ceremony seen live around the world, Smith walked up to the stage and hit presenter Chris Rock in the face with his open hand. Rock had made a joke about the appearance of Smith's wife, actor Jada Pinkett Smith.

Rock, a comedian, had also directed a joke at Pinkett Smith during the 2016 Oscars ceremony.People have wondered why Smith was permitted to stay after the incident and receive his Oscar for best actor.On Wednesday, the academy suggested that it attempted to remove Smith from the ceremony. The group said in a statement: "Mr. Smith was asked to leave the ceremony and refused."
The academy added that Smith could offer a written defense before the group meets again on April 18. The academy also apologized to Chris Rock, people at the event and viewers of the broadcast.Smith's representative did not answer requests for comment on Wednesday. Smith had offered his own apology on Monday to Rock, the academy and viewers. He said, "I was out of line and I was wrong."Pinkett Smith has not commented on the incident so far. She posted on Instagram, "This is a season of healing and I'm here for it."At a performance late Wednesday night in Boston, Rock said, "I'm still processing what happened, so at some point, I'll talk about that..."
Only a very small number of members have ever been removed from the academy. They include producer Harvey Weinstein, director Roman Polanski, and actors Bill Cosby and Carmine Caridi.

Russia quickly faced sanctions from individual countries and groups like the European Union. That means they placed financial and trade restrictions on Russia meant to punish the country for its actions.

Many countries also welcomed Ukrainian refugees, and sent supportive messages to Ukraine's armed resistance.But the actions in support of Ukraine have angered people across the Middle East. Many there see a double standard in how Western countries deal with international conflicts. A double standard is when a set of rules is enforced differently for one group than for another.
Palestinian Foreign Minister Riad Malki spoke about this feeling to a security meeting in Turkey earlier this month. He said: "We have seen every means we were told could not be activated for over 70 years deployed in less than seven days."He called this: "Amazing hypocrisy."
Middle East conflicts
The U.S.-led war in Iraq began in 2003. At the time, people in some nations considered the action an unlawful invasion of one state by another. Iraqis who fought the Americans were called terrorists in the news media. Refugees seeking to flee to the West were often turned away and treated as possible security threats.Russia intervened in Syria's civil war to help Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in 2015. The move was denounced by many Western nations but there was little action. With Russia's help, Syria's forces destroyed cities leading to hunger and death.Many thousands of Syrian refugees fled to Europe. Some died at sea or were turned back as nations struggled to deal with the mass migration. Some considered the migrants security threats.

The small earthquakes, called tremors, have increased in strength to a magnitude of 3.3 over the past few days. The tremors could signal a greater earthquake or even a volcanic eruption. CIVISA watches for earthquake and volcanic activity. They increased the volcanic activity level to Level 4, the second highest.This means that there is a strong chance that the island could see its first eruption since 1808.Despite the tremors, farmers continue to milk over 200 cows every day. Rui Bettencourt is a 47-year-old farmer. He says that he does not have time to think about the earthquakes.
"There are earthquakes but we have to go out every day. We can't abandon the animals," says Bettencourt.
Antonio Aguiar is the president of the factory where Bettencourt sells his milk. He says that the farmers will be the last to leave the island if a natural disaster happens."They (farmers) continue to work because this is where they earn their income," said Aguiar.Some people of the island have already left because they are afraid of a possible eruption. This has led to shortages of workers in all three of Sao Jorge's cheese factories.If there are not enough workers to process the milk, farmers will make less money. The agricultural leader of the government said they would help with financial support for farmers who cannot sell their milk.Aguiar says that farmers here and around the world are already struggling with rising fuel and animal feed prices due to the Russian war in Ukraine. A natural disaster would make the situation more difficult.There is also a concern over volcanic ash and its effect on farmland. And lastly, the cows are showing signs of stress due to the tremors, says Aguiar. The government of the Azores said it would help move the animals to safe places if there is more activity.

Imagine you want to talk about your life. Perhaps you are talking to a friend, presenting to an English class, or writing about your childhood.You might start with where your life began – in other words, where and when you were born.In today's Everyday Grammar, we will explore how one famous writer wrote about the place and time of a birth.
You will learn about some of the grammar behind the opening lines of one of the 20th century's most famous works of literature: Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie.
Opening lines
The opening lines from Midnight's Children set up an important idea that runs through the book: that is, the words link the life and times of the main character to the history of India.Notice how the sentences jump between past and present – a clear suggestion that the narrator is in the process of writing about his life.I was born in the city of Bombay ... once upon a time. No, that won't do, there's no getting away from the date: I was born in Doctor Narlikar's Nursing Home on August 15th, 1947.Note that the first sentence uses the simple past – "I was." The adjective "born" follows the BE verb: "I was born in the city of Bombay...."But then there is an expression that ends the sentence. It is "once upon a time." This is a common structure used in fairy tales or folk tales.The next sentence introduces the present tense, suggesting the narrator is talking to himself. Then it switches back to a more exact time during the past.No, that won't do, there's no getting away from the date: I was born in Doctor Narlikar's Nursing Home on August 15th, 1947.Having described where he was born, the narrator then describes when he was born.And the time The time matters, too. Well then: at night. No, it's important to be more ... On the stroke of midnight, as a matter of fact.
Note that Rushdie used some incomplete sentences – sentences without a verb. Examples include "And the time ", "Well then: at night," and "On the stroke of midnight, as a matter of fact."
