B. T.: Take notes about the person’s life while listening. What does the girl say

about her father? Why is she proud of him?

Студенты слушают аудио запись на диске.

Okay, the person I admire is my father actually… and um… he was a civil engineer for thirty-three years and he was very successful in his job. And after thirty-three years of working quite happily, he was suddenly made redundant. And at the age of 52 it was actually very, very difficult for him to get another job. So he started thinking about what he could do, and he remembered that he he’d actually been very good at um… teaching me maths when I was younger, and I’d a lot of problems with maths and he’d got me through my exams. So what he did was he went back to university, and he trained as a maths teacher. And now I have to say that whenever I go back to my town to visit my dad, I bump into a lot of people in our road who he teaches and they say he is one of the best teachers that they’ve ever had, so that’s great!

The reason I admire him so much is because, you know, faced with that kind of situation it would be very easy to get depressed and feel sorry for yourself, and my dad showed just how strong he was and how flexible and creative he can be and that makes me very proud.

Biographies in short

Nelson Mandela

African National Congress Leader

and South African President,

born Transkeu, 1918-2013

Mandela trained to be a lawyer before joing the ANC in 1944. For the next twenty years he played a leading part in their campaign against apartheid, until he was arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1964. He was not freed until 1990. In the years following his release he worked with President de Klerk to end apartheid, and in 1993 the two men were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In 1994 he became president of the new South Africa.

Stephen Hawking

Physicist,

Born Oxford, England, 1942

Considered the most brilliant cosmologist of the time, he is an advocate of the ‘Big Bang’ theory about the origin of the Universe. He is a Cambridge professor and the author of many scientific boos, including the best-selling A Brief History of Time (1988). His achievements are especially remarkable because for over thirty years he has suffered from a neuromotor disease, which has meant he is confined to a wheelchair and can only speak with the help of a computer.

Mother Teresa

Missionary,

Born Albania, 1910-1977

The daughter of peasants, she became a nun in 1927 and was sent first to Ireland and then to Calcutta, where she taught in a girls’ school for nearly twenty years, before deciding to devote herself to working with the people living in the slums of Calcutta. After a short medical training, she and two other nuns took to the streets, caring for the sick and dying. In 1950 she founded the Missionary Sisters of Charity, which now has 775 homes in 120 countries. In 1979 she was awarded the Nobel Prize.

Bill Gates

Born Seattle, USA, 1955

While at school, he finished among the top ten in the country in a maths aptitude test – despite never taking a book home to study or attending maths classes. He went to Harvard, but left without getting a degree to start up his computer company Microsoft. By the age of forty-one, he was one of the world’s richest men – he is believed to be worth about $18 billion. Unlike some millionaires, he is not shy about spending his money: he owns twenty Ferraris, each worth more than $150,000, and a high-tech mansion overlooking Lake Washington.

Muhammad Ali

Boxer

Born Kentucky, USA, 1942

To his fans he was ‘The Greatest’ but his real name was Cassius Marcellus Clay. He came from a very poor family and started boxing when he was just twelve years old. As a boxer, he was incredibly fast on his feet – he almost ‘danced’.

He won the world championship for the first time in 1964 but he lost his title a few years later because he refused to fight in the Vietnamese War. After that he became a Muslim and changed his name to Muhammad Ali. I the 1970s, he became world champion again. Ali got Parkinson disease in the 1980s and stopped fighting. He began to raise money for poor people around the world. In 2000, The United Nations named him a ‘Messenger of Peace’.

Madonna

Singer/actress,

Born Michigan, USA, 1958

Her real name is Madonna Louse Ciccone. Originally a dancer, she had her first record ‘Holiday’ in 1983. In 1985 she began her film career and also married actor Sean Penn, but the marriage lasted less than four years. Her ‘Blond Ambition Tour’ in 1990 – complete with outrageous costumes designed by Jean Paul Gaultier – her book Sex (1993) caused much controversy. Her career took a more respectable direction, however, with the birth of her first child, Lourdes, in 1997, and her performance in the title role of Evita.

Alexander Solzhenitsin

Novelist, historian

Born Kislovodsk, Russia, 1918 – 2008

He graduated from the Department of Physics and Mathematics at Rostov University in 1941 and was sent to an artillery school. In 1942 he served in the front line until he was arrested in 1945 because of disrespectful remarks about Stalin and sentenced to eight years in a detention camp. A year later, as a mathematician, he was transferred to the group of scientific research institutes of MVD. He had to change several camps until 1953, working as a miner, a bricklayer, and a foundry man, and then was ‘exiled for life.’ He taught mathematics and physics in a primary school and he wrote prose in secret. He exposed Stalin’s prison system and became a non-person. 1970, he was awarded the Nobel Prize but could receive it after he had been deported from the Soviet Union. He returned to Russia in 1994.
