People around the world are mourning the loss of the countrys first black president. He was often called humble, charming, loyal person and a man who cared about others. “He seemed to have that special charismatic(有魅力的) personality,” said Herman Cohen, U.S. assistant secretary of state for Africa from 1989 to 1993. “He became the symbol in the fight against apartheid.” Mandela was born on July 18, 1918. As a young man he became active in the anti-apartheid movement and joined the African National Congress, or ANC, in the 1940s. The white-led government banned the ANC in 1960, but the group continued to operate secretly. Mandela became head of the groups new military wing, coordinating a sabotage campaign against South African military and government targets. In 1962, he was arrested and put on trial for his actions and sentenced to life in prison on Robben Island off the coast of Cape Town. He spent 18 years there, refusing a government offer to release him if he would renounce the ANCs armed struggle. But he was freed in 1990 after South African President Frederik de Klerk legalized all political parties and discharged most political prisoners. Shortly after his release, Mandela was elected president of the African National Congress. And in 1994, when the ANC won South Africas first all-race elections, he was inaugurated (就职) as the countys first black president at age 75. “Never, never and never again shall it be that this beautiful land will again experience the oppression of one by another,” he said. President Mandela said he would stay for only one five-year term. Cohen says Mandela earned international respect for South Africas national reconciliation. “Mandela devoted himself mainly to rallying the Africans to this new era to work on economic development, having good education, also he was very much of a spokesman on the international scene.” he said.In 1993, Mandela shared the Nobel Peace Prize with his once bitter enemy F.W. de Klerk for their contribution to the peace process in South Africa. After receiving the award, Mandela praised the South African people. “All have created a society which recognizes that all people are born equal,” he said. In a country torn apart by years of racial conflict, Nelson Mandela is considered a remarkable leader - a man who turned South Africa away from violence and hatred into a country of greater peace and understanding.1.The underlined word “apartheid” in the 3rd paragraph probably means_.A.racial separationB.financial aidC.infectious illnessD.fulfilling life2.How long was Nelson Mandela sent to prison?A.18 yearsB.28 yearsC.6 yearsD.19 years3.What is the authors attitude in the passage?A.negativeB.positiveC.subjectiveD.neutral4.Why was his bitter enemy F.W. de Klerk awarded the Nobel Peace Prize with Mandela?A.F.W. de Klerk did not kill Mandela during his presidency.B.F.W. de Klerk was one of Mandelas friends in the early years.C.F.W. de Klerk made his own contribution to the process peacefully as well.D.F.W. de Klerk was considered a remarkable leader turning South Africa away f
