The poor are wonderful people. One evening we went out and found four dying people on the street. One of them was in a really serious condition, and I told the sisters, “You take care of the other   1  , and I'll take care of this lady who looks very   2  .”

So I did all I could for her. I put her in a nice clean bed, and there was such a beautiful smile on her face. She took hold of my hand as she said, “Thank you” and with that she died. I   3  

my conscience(良知) and wondered what I   4   have said in her position. And my answer was very simple. I would have tried to draw   5   attention to myself. I would have said that I was hungry and dying, that I was cold and in pain, but she gave me   6   more — she gave me her grateful thanks. And she died with a smile on her face. The same thing happened to the man whom we picked up from a drain(阴沟),   7   eaten by worms. When we brought him to the home he said, “I have lived like an animal on the street, but I am going to die like an angel, loved and   8 

for.” And it was so wonderful to see the gratitude(感恩) of such a man who could speak like that and die   9   complaining. He truly behaved like an angel — this is the greatness of our people.

In our family we don't want bombs and guns to destroy others. We want to bring peace, so why not let us all get together, love one another, bring peace and   10   to each other? As a result we will be able to overcome all the evil things(邪恶) in the world.

The prize I have received is a Prize of Peace. I am going to try and use it to make a home for many people who have no home. Because I believe that   11   begins at home, and if we can create a home for the poor I think that love will   12  . Today there is so much suffering in the world!

When I find a person on the street who is hungry I give him bread to remove that   13  . But what should I do for a person who feels   14   and unloved and who has been thrown out of society? Let us always greet that person with a smile, for a smile is the beginning of love, and once we begin to love each other, it will be   15   to want to do something to help those less fortunate than ourselves.

1. A. one    B. two        C. three         D. four

2. A. nicer          B. bad        C. poorer        D. worse

Doris Lessing is an important writer who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2007, when she was 88 years old. She is famous for her books about Africa. They reflect the life that she knew when she was growing up in Southern Rhodesia (now known as Zimbabwe). Her first book The Grass Is Singing was about the relationship between a white famer's wife and her black African servant. Doris was concerned all her life about women and their lives.

Doris left school early and was self-taught. She was unhappy in her family life and left her home to move to London in 1949. It was there that she was able to begin her writing career. After that she never looked back. Her books were popular with women because she wrote about their psychology, politics and relationships within the family and how their views changed as they aged.

Her most famous book is The Golden Notebook, in which she examines the problems of a woman writer. She understood the problems of unknown women writers and published two novels under a different name. They were both ignored until she told everyone who the true author was!

She wrote more than fifty books and it was the range of her writing(novels, essays and biographies)that led her to being given the Nobel Prize. When she heard the news from a group of reporters who were waiting outside her house, Doris Lessing was amazed. She said, “I am genuinely surprised because they have refused to accept me all these years.” Even so she was very happy to win the Nobel Prize at the end of her career. It seemed a good reward after so much effort!

It was at the end of 2005 that Liberia elected its first woman president — Mrs Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf. The 67 year old grandmother was elected only a few years after two terrible civil wars.

During the 2005 election, Johnson-Sirleaf inspired 51% of the women in Liberia to vote — up from 15% in the years before. President Johnson-Sirleaf encouraged each person in her country to take part in rebuilding their country. She knew that one of the important requirements for long-term development and progress is that each person should play their part in building a harmonious and prosperous society.

As a young girl, Ellen Johnson proved to those around her that she could play her part. At the age of 8 she started playing soccer on the all boys' team at her Liberian elementary school. From 1948 to 1955 she studied accountancy and economics in the Liberian capital of Monrovia. After her marriage at 17, she travelled to America in 1961 and continued her studies, obtaining a bachelor's degree from the University of Colorado, and in 1971, a master's degree in government management from Harvard University. When she returned she took a job in the government of Liberia, then with the United Nations and the World Bank before finally becoming the president.

Now she is a hero to many because of her efforts to work for justice and equality. She even spent time in prison while working to improve her country. As president she has a very difficult job to bring life to a suffering nation. She will have to use a great deal of heart, creativity and energy. But the woman known as the “Iron Lady” is confident that she has the ability to “change troubles into opportunities”.

One of her aims is to make sure everyone is educated in order to bring positive change and happiness to the country. She has worked hard to improve schools by bringing teachers and learning materials to her nation. As well as education, she is also creating jobs by building homes and providing basic health care and food for all the people of Liberia. This includes as special program to eliminate one of their biggest killers: malaria. She is also working with former child soldiers to help them learn to live in peace with their neighbours and families. With President Johnson-Sirleaf's guiding hand, people are working together for peace and development.

6. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the country of Liberia?

A. In 2005, Liberia elected its first woman president.

B. Two civil wars broke out in Liberia before 2005.

C. Women still don't have the right to vote in Liberia.

D. Malaria is one of the greatest killers in Liberia.

7. What is the most important aim Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf has for her country?

A. People play their part in rebuilding the health care system.

C. Everyone should play his or her part in building a harmonious and prosperous society.
