一、阅读判断
Mother Teresa was born on 27th August, 1910. She attended the government school near her home until she was eighteen. At that time, some doctors and nurses from her home town were working in India, and they often wrote to the school about their work. She decided to join them one day.
When she left school, she first went to Britain. Then a year later she went to India, where she began to train to be a teacher. After the training, she was sent to Calcutta, where she taught geography at a school and soon after became the headmistress (女校长).
However, although she loved teaching, in 1946, Mother Teresa left the school and went to work in the poor parts of Calcutta. Later she trained to become a nurse in Patna, and then began her work helping the poor and comforting the dying in the streets of the city. Slowly, others came to help her, and her work spread to other parts of India.
Mother Teresa is a wellknown person. Many photos have been taken of her, as she travelled the world to open new schools and hospitals in poor countries. In 1979, she was given the Nobel Peace Prize for the lifetime of love and service she had given to the poor.
