15、 in 1952 and Mandela was the black lawyer to whom I went for advice.He offered guidance to poor black people on their legal problems.He was generous with his time,for which I was grateful.I needed his help because I had very little education.I began school at six.The school where I studied for only
16、two years was three kilometres away.I had to leave because my family could not continue to pay the school fees and the bus fare.I could not read or write well.After trying hard,I got a job in a gold mine.However,this was a time when one had got to have a passbook to live in Johannesburg.Sadly I did
17、not have one because I was not born there,and I worried about whether I would become out of work.The day when Nelson Mandela helped me was one of my happiest.He told me how to get the correct papers so I could stay in Johannesburg.I became more hopeful about my future.I never forgot how kind Mandela
18、 was.When he organized the ANC Youth League,I joined it as soon as I could.He said:“The last thirty years have seen the greatest number of laws stopping our rights and progress,until today we have reached a stage where we have almost no rights at all.”It was the truth.Black people could not vote or
19、choose their leaders.They could not get the jobs they wanted.The parts of town in which they had to live were decided by white people.The places outside the towns where they were sent to live were the poorest parts of South Africa.No one could grow food there.In fact as Nelson Mandela said:“.we were
20、 put into a position in which we had either to accept we were less important,or fight the government.We chose to attack the laws.We first broke the law in a way which was peaceful;when this was not allowed.only then did we decide to answer violence with violence.”As a matter of fact,I do not like vi

22、中非常艰难的时期。(当时)我才12岁。那是在1952年,曼德拉是我寻求建议的那位黑人律师。他在法律问题上给贫苦的黑人提供指导。他不吝惜时间,我对此非常感激。我需要他的帮助,因为我只受过很少的教育。我六岁开始上学,我仅仅学习了两年的那所学校有三公里远。我不得不辍学,因为我家无法继续支付学费和车费。我既读不好也写不好。几经周折,我才在一家金矿上找到一份工作。然而,那时必须有身份证才能住在约翰内斯堡。遗憾的是我没有这个证件,因为我不是在那里出生的。我很担心自己是否会失业。纳尔逊曼德拉帮助我的那天是我最高兴的日子之一。他告诉我要在约翰内斯堡立住脚,应当如何获取所需证件。我对未来更加充满了希望。我永远忘
23、不了曼德拉是多么和善。当他组织了非国大青年联盟时,我马上就参加了这个组织。他说:“过去30年来所出现的大量法律剥夺我们的权利,阻挡我们的进步,一直到今天,我们还处在几乎什么权利都没有的阶段。”这是事实。黑人没有选举权,他们无权选择自己的领导人。他们不能做自己想要做的工作。他们在城里不得不居住的地方是由白人决定的。他们被打发去城外居住的地方是南非最贫穷的地区。没有人能在那儿种庄稼。事实上,正如纳尔逊曼德拉所说的:“我们被置于(这样)一个境地:要么被迫接受低人一等(的现实),要么跟政府作斗争。我们选择抨击法律。首先我们用和平的方式来打破法律,当这种方式得不到允许时只有到这个时候,我们才决定用暴力反
24、抗暴力。”事实上,我并不喜欢暴力但是在1963年,我帮助他炸毁了一些政府大楼。那是很危险的事情,因为如果被抓住了,我可能要坐牢。但我乐于帮忙,因为我知道这将帮助我们实现使黑人和白人平等的梦想。.Fill in the blanks according to the text.Paras.12:The life of Elias before he met 1.Nelson_Mandela.Paras.35:2.The_change_of_Elias_life after he met Nelson Mandela and what Mandela did.Read the text caref
