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.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

  A 57 - year - old woman was hurt yesterday by “a huge black cat”, as she was walking her two dogs near Bodmin Moor in the West Country. Local police are investigating (调查) her story, which follows a lot of similar reports in the area in recent months. Residents and visitors to the West Country have been warned to avoid the Bodmin area.

  Mrs Williams, the wife of a local farmer, described the cat as “just like something out of the jungle. It was jet - black all over with a white - tipped tail. It had short legs but was very strong.” More details were not available, as the creature moved too fast and Mrs Williams only managed to take a short look at it. The incident happened when Mrs Williams was taking her dogs for a walk, as she always does on Sunday morning. Suddenly something struck her really hard on the back of the head, causing her to fall to the ground, stunned.

  “When I came to, there it wasa huge black cat staring down at me with its glittering, green eyes. I got the fright of my life, I can tell you,” said Mrs Williams. “It was a horrifying experience,” she told reporters, as she sipped a cup of tea to calm her down, still visibly shaken. “If it hadn't been for my Labrador, it would have savaged me to death. It was about six foot long, the size of a large Alsatian.” Mrs Williams' description matches that of other eye witnesses (目击者) in incidents involving strange creatures in various parts of the country.

  Exmoor police have been trying to track the “Beast of Bodmin”, as it's called, since it was first spotted some years ago, but they have so far come up with nothing except for a few very large animal tracks and a trail of dead sheep. Claims that the creature was sighted in a school playground recently are being investigated. “Our policy is to look into all reports of this sort, however ridiculous,” said Chief Constable (警察局长) John Witmoor.

  Investigations are still going on and local police have brought in zoologists to assist them in the hunt for the Beast of Bodmin. Meanwhile, local people and visitors to the area have been warned not to walk alone on the moor. Parents have been advised to keep their children at a safe distance from the area. Motorists have also been asked to keep an eye out for anything unusual and to report sightings to the police immediately.

1.How did the police react to what Mrs Williams said?

[  ]

A.They accepted her story.

B.They did not believe her.

C.They are taking it seriously.

D.They say they have heard it all before.

2.According to the text, we know that Labrador is the name of the writer's ________.

[  ]

A.dog
B.cat
C.friend
D.neighbour

3.What is the police view of the situation?

[  ]

A.The animal must be a wolf.

B.It is nothing new.

C.The reports are not very serious.

D.The animal could be dangerous.

4.In order to find the creature, the police ________.

[  ]

A.have warned parents to keep the children safe

B.have asked experts for help

C.are looking for more tracks

D.are interviewing visitors to the area

5.From the text we know that the creature was first seen ________.

[  ]

A.sometime last year
B.a few days ago
C.in recent months
D.a few years ago
