	%X In this paper, we present two new one-step iterative
methods based on Thiele-s continued fraction for solving nonlinear
equations. By applying the truncated Thiele-s continued fraction
twice, the iterative methods are obtained respectively. Analysis of
convergence shows that the new methods are fourth-order convergent.
Numerical tests verifying the theory are given and based on the
methods, two new one-step iterations are developed.
