Ⅰ. 閱讀理解
(原創)People around the world are remembering Nelson Mandela, South Africa’s first black president. He died Thursday at the age of 95.
South African President Jacob Zuma said, “The nation has lost its greatest son, and our people have lost a father. ”
Mandela had been in poor health for several years. He was repeatedly treated in hospital, most recently for a lung infection. He became infected with tuberculosis(肺結核)many years ago while in prison.
Nelson Mandela was the main leader in efforts to end white minority rule in South Africa. He spent 27 years in prison for his part in fighting apartheid(種族隔離)—the nation’s policy of discrimination(歧視)against blacks.
Many world leaders, past and present, are remembering Nelson Mandela.
Frederick W. de Klerk was South Africa’s last apartheid leader. He freed Mandela from prison in 1990. Later, the two men won the Nobel Peace Prize. Mr. de Klerk said people will remember Mandela for the importance he placed on reconciliation(和解)—being able to reach a settlement between conflicting sides. He said their relationship was, in his words, “often stormy”, but he said they were“always able to come together at critical(關鍵的)moments. ”
In the United States, President Barack Obama called Mandela an influential, brave and profoundly good human being. Mr. Obama said Mandela will be remembered for leaving a free South Africa at peace. “I am one of the countless millions who drew inspiration from Nelson Mandela’s life. My very first political action—the first thing I ever did that involved an issue, or a policy, or politics—was a protest against apartheid. I would study his words and his writings. ”
In London, British Prime Minister David Cameron called Mandela a true global hero. In his words, a great light has gone out in the world.
