Unit 5　Nelson Mandela—a modern hero;教材背景链接;Imagine that your father did the very same job as your friend’s father，but because of the color of his skin，he got paid less in one year than your friend’s father was paid in a week. Imagine the government told you that your grandparents and their way of living were wrong. It may sound like a film made in the future. ;But，for Nelson Mandela，this was no movie. He grew up in South Africa with a government that did not consider black people were equal to white people.But Nelson Mandela was a fighter.He refused to accept this unfair idea of the government and began to fight to make South Africa a fair country for everybody. ;He became the leader of a political movement called the African National Congress(ANC)，and did everything he could to encourage the government to change their ideas. His career in the ANC stopped in 1964 when he was sent to prison.He was in prison for 27 years.He spent most of his time in prison on Robben Island. ;This was a terrible prison where people had to work hard all day and were treated very badly. Then in 1990，Nelson Mandela was freed and it was the beginning of the end for the unfair government of South Africa.Less than five years after he was set free，Mr. Mandela was given the Nobel Peace Prize and elected as the first black president of South Africa.;Today，thanks to the brave fight by Nelson Mandela，the government of South Africa has become fairer.Now everyone in South Africa can enjoy comfortable and happy lives at home and at work.Nelson Mandela is one of the world’s true freedom fighters，and his life will be remembered long after the world has forgotten the earlier unfair government of South Africa.;新课导入 曼德拉的一生充满激情，他每天都在为自由而战。他使我们猛醒：世界上决没有什么种族存在，这只是种族主义者的发明。
