Nelson Mandela

  Nelson Mandela is one of the great political leaders of our time.His lifelong efforts to the fight against racial(种族)oppression(压迫)in his country won him the admiration(钦慕)of millions worldwide, as well as the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize.As the leader of South Africa’s anti-partheid(反种族隔离)movement, Mandela was a key player in helping to move his country toward multiracial government(多民族政府)and majority rule.

  Mandela’s long, hard struggle is a victory of dignity(尊严)and hope.He’s a man of true courage.If determination and patience were considered talents, Mandela would win hands down in any sort of competition.

  accomplishments(成就)& fame(名誉)

  Nelson Mandela’s greatest accomplishments were his role in ending apartheid, and becoming South Africa’s first elected black president.He has been the recipient(收件人)of dozens upon dozens of awards, prizes and honors from countless associations and organizations, but perhaps none more prestigious(声望很高)than the Nobel Peace Prize, which he shared with former South African President Frederik W.de Klerk, in 1993.

  He has been awarded several other major peace prizes, such as the UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)Peace Prize in 1991(also shared with F.W.de Klerk); the Africa Peace Award in 1995 and the International Gandhi Peace Prize in 2002.

  Mr.Mandela also received dozens of honorary degrees(名誉学位)from universities the world over, including the Universities of Bristol, Cambridge, Glasgow, London, Nottingham, and Oxford, as well as an Honorary Doctorate from the Sorbonne University in Paris(all in July 1996), and Harvard Business School’s Statesman of the Year Award in 1995-to name but a few.He has also been presented(赠送)with the key to cities such as Rome, Rio de Janeiro, London, Dublin, and Sydney, Australia(where he became the first person ever to receive the Freedom of that city).In July of 2002, he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the United States highest civilian(公民)award.

  Model

  There’s something admirable about having been a leader fighting for a people’s freedom and equality in an unjust society.Mandela has become a worldwide symbol(楷模)of the struggle of the oppressed(被压迫者)over the oppressor.He has been celebrated in song by artists the world over, in many different languages.One entitled “Nelson Mandela”was recorded by British 2-Tone group The Special A.K.A(formerly The Specials); making the top 10 in the UK and a few other European nations in 1984.

  Personal style

  As a president, Mandela sported the typical garb(服饰)of high-ranking government officials: expensive, well-tailored(缝制精致的)suits.Now retired(退役)from public life, Mandela the elder statesman dresses in an ordinary way.

  He attends many activities, often where he is the guest of honor, in bright, colorfully patterned(典型的)traditional African robes(长袍)or shirts all the better for getting down when the music begins.

(1)

Mandel was not only admired(钦慕)for his long fight against ________but also for ________.

(2)

How many peaceful prize has Mandela got?He has got________ in 1991, ________in 1995 and ________ in 2002.

No country in the world has more daily newspapers than the USA. There are almost 2000 of them,as compared with 180 in Japan,164 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality(质量) of some American papers is quite high and their views are used all over the world. Excellent newspapers like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence(影响) all over the country. However,the Post and the New York Times are not national newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain of Le Monde is in France,since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of these give detailed(详细的)accounts of national and international news,but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.?

Like the press(报刊) in most other countries,American newspapers report news from the “exciting” and “relaxing” to the serious. They try to entertain people as well as give information,for they have to compete with the attraction of television.

Just as American newspapers try to satisfy all tastes,they also try to attract readers of all political parties. A few news papers support extremist(极端主义者) groups on the far right and on the far left,but most daily newspapers try their best to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are mainly moderate(温和的).Many of these papers print materials by well?known journalists of different political and social views,in order to give a balanced picture.?

As in other countries American newspapers can be either responsible(负责任的) or irresponsible,but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once exposed political scandals(丑闻),for example,the Watergate Affair(水门事件).?

1.Which newspaper in the U. K. is national??

A.?Le Monde.        B.?Washington Post.?

C.?New York Times.       D.?The Times.?

2.Most American newspapers attract readers by carrying      .?

A. national news      B. local news?

C. international news     D. political news?

3.In order to win the competition with television,American newspapers have to    .

C. give entertainment news   D. give national news?

4.Most daily newspapers attract moderate Americans by      .?

A. printing articles by well-known journalists of different views?

  I knew they were out there somewhere, and I was determined to find them.

  Like most tourists who visit Ranthambore National Park in India, I went with just one goal in mind:to see tigers in the wild.

  Twice a day, all year round, 10 open-topped trucks are allowed to rumble along the park’s dirt roads for a few hours.It costs 360 rupees(about $8, U.S.)to buy a seat on one of the trucks.Glimpses of tigers are free.

  Of course, nothing is guaranteed.Forty tigers wander Ranthambore’s 388 square miles.But tigers hear and smell us long before we can see them.Some tourists I met near the park were lucky enough to see a handful of tigers up close during just one trip.Other people saw none, even after going out six or more times.

  Still, I couldn’t pass up(miss)the excursion(short journey).It was an opportunity that might someday disappear.Tigers are among the most endangered animals on Earth.In India, where about half of the planet’s remaining 7000 wild tigers live, tigers face a number of threats, especially from a growing human population.More than a billion people live in India today, and development is rapidly expanding into what was once largely tiger territory.

  Conservationists nonetheless(in spite of that)remain optimistic.“The tiger will not disappear,”said P.K.Sen, director of the Tiger and Wildlife Program for World Wildlife Fund-India(WWF-India).He was kind enough to meet with me in his New Delhi office on a Sunday, the only day I spent in the city during a recent 3-week trip to India.

  There’s no way, Sen said, that people will ever let the majestic cats die out.“The tiger has been a symbol of strength and might for thousands of years,”he said.
