Unit 5 Nelson Mandela-a modern heroPeriod OneWarming Up & Reading—PrereadingⅠ.阅读理解AMandela became president in South Africa’s historic 1994 election(选举).After that,he often turned to Walter Sisulu,one of his closest friends for more than sixty years,for guidance.Sisulu was in many ways as important as Mandela in the fight against South Africa’s racist system(种族主义制度).In 1944,the two,along with Oliver T ambo,founded the ANC Youth League.The ANCYL favored a more militant(激进的) way to the movement against the government.They soon took over the ANC,with Sisulu serving as its secretary general from 1949 to 1954.In 1963,he,Mandela and other top ANC leaders were sentenced to life in prison.Sisulu was always calm and patient after he was released.The day after his release on Oct.15,1989,Sisulu explained to reporters how “it was not possible to lose hope because the spirit of the people outside was too great”.Mandela’s release came four months later.Sisulu was born in 1912.Unlike Mandela,whose father was a chief(酋长),Sisulu was the child of a black maid(女仆) and a white worker.His father left the family when Sisulu was small.He was educated for a while at a local school,but left when he was 15 to support his family.He took whatever jobs he could,and continued to learn on hisown.In 1940,he joined the ANC and got Mandela to join it a year later.“Our paths first met in 1941.During the past 62 years,our lives have been closely connected.We shared the joy of living,and the pain.We walked side by side through the valley of death.T ogether we enjoyed the taste of freedom,”Mandela said after Sisulu died on May 5th,2003.“A part of me is gone.”1.In what way was Sisulu similar to Mandela?A.He also supported peaceful means.B.He also ran for the 1994 election.C.He was also a founder of the ANC.D.He was also a great freedom fighter.答案 D解析推理判断题。

British physicist Stephen Hawking,possibly the world’s most famous scientist after Albert Einstein,gavelectures in Zhejiang and Beijing in August.An illness left him unable to move any part of his body except for three fingers.

Then, after returning tothe United States from a busy and tiring trip to Russia, Mr Cousins got sick. Becausehe had pushed his body to the limit of its strength on the trip, a chemical changebegan to take place inside him. The material between his bones became weak.In less than one week after his return, he could not stand. Every move that hemade was painful. He was not able to sleep at night.The doctors told him that they did not know how to cure Mr Cousins' problem andhe might never get over the illness. Mr Cousins, however, refused to give up hope.Mr Cousins thought that unhappy thoughts were causing bad chemical changes in hisbody. He did not want to take medicine to cure himself. Instead, he felt that happy thoughts or laughter might cure his illness.He began to experiment on himself while still in the hospital by watching funny shows on television. Mr Cousins quickly found that ten minutes of read laughter during the day gave him two hours of pain-free sleep at night.Deciding that the doctors could not help him, Mr Cousins left the hospital and checked into a hotel room where he could continue his experiments with laughter. For eight days, Mr Cousins rested in the hotel room watching funny shows on television, reading funny books, and sleeping whenever he felt tired.

Todde made it into the Guinness book of Records when he turned 112 last year and wore his crown of "The Oldes Living Man on Earth" with pride and a sense of humor.Born in a tiny mountain village in 1889, the same year work on the Eiffel Tower was completed and baby Adolf Hitler took his first breath, Todde seldom left the village. He lived in the same house with his wife of 78 years, Maria Mntonia,all his life.He witnessed ( 见证) the two World Wars, a technological revolution and saw theworld's population quadruple (4 倍) but was untroubled by the passing of the years."His life was very simple but those 100 years, he lived them to the full,"said Mariolina, recalling how he liked to play cards with his friends and go for long walks.Todde's life and that of his fellow islanders is the focus of a scientific study.A remarkable number of Sardinia's 1. 6 million people live through a century. Some 135 people per million live to see their 100th birthday.Todde's own family seems a case in point — his two daughters are 78 and 81 separately and his sister is 98.The answer to the often-posed question of just how he managed it was simple for Antonio."Just love your brother and drink a good glass of red wine every day,"he was quoted (引证) as saying when he celebrated his 112th birthday last year."You take one day after the other, you just go on "25.

My husband had insisted on watering the flowers in the garden by himself, and when he discovered that he couldn't manage, he had to ask me for help at the last moment. So now we had an hour to get to the airport. Luckily, there were not many cars or buses on the road and we were able to get there just in time. We checked in and went straight to a big hall to wait for our flight to be called. We waited and waited but no announcement was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn't even arrived yet. In the end there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ 108 could get a free meal voucher (card) and that the plane hadn't left Spain for technical problems. We thought that meant that it wasn't safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late evening when we were asked to report again. This time we were given free vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.The next morning after a bad night because of all the planes taking off and landingwe reported back to the airport.
