1. The concept of freedom has been an important global ideal for civilizations and people
throughout the centuries. __1__ This includes civil liberties, intellectual, and religious freedom as
well as political freedom.
Civil liberties include the right to say, write and act however you want within the general laws of

11 / 21
your county. They also allow people to speak out against the government and political leaders
without unjust treatment. __2__ In other words, no one is forced to believe in a certain way of
thinking. Political freedom usually accompanies democratic governments, within which a country’s

While democratic governments are supposed to protect the rights of their people, even in these
“free” societies, however, people are not always as free as they may seem. __4__ These acts of
freedoms can happen during wars, international terrorism and global disasters, such as tsunamis,
earthquakes and cyclones.

future.

away.

2. What if you were not allowed to go to school because someone did not like the color of your
skin? __1__ However, after years of protests and demonstrations by Civil Rights activists, the
Supreme Court made the rule illegal. Unfortunately, in many American towns, local authorities still
prevented black people from claiming their right to education.
One such case in Little Rock, Arkansas, drew international attention to this problem. In 1957,
nine black students tried to join the primarily “white” Central High School. __2__ The soldiers
surrounded the school and refused to allow the black students into the building. __3__ Finally,
President Eisenhower sent members of the U.S. Army to Arkansas, and the nine students entered the
school under the protection of 1,000 soldiers.
__4__ The nine students faced extreme racism from some of their fellow students. However, they
did not lose faith and courage, and in time, they came to be accepted as ordinary students and not
“black” students.
With the sense of acceptance and the education they received, all of them went on to have
successful careers in journalism, public service, and more. Today, Central High School, where they
quietly demanded their rights, is a shining symbol of the Civil Rights movement and the triumph of
equality.
(A) With such unfavorable beginnings, that academic year was a difficult one for everyone at
Central High School.

1. Some of the greatest leaders are those who push for social change. They often lead their
people to see the problems around them. Three such leaders are Susan B. Anthony, Mohandas
Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. Although these three leaders have different backgrounds, they
have many things in common.
Susan B. Anthony is known for her efforts to fight for women’s right to vote in the United States.
As a result, she was jailed more than once. She became a pioneer that led women to have the same
rights as men.
Mohandas Gandhi fought for India’s freedom from Britain through non-violent methods. He
lectured and urged Indian people to protest their conditions and unfair taxation. Eventually,
Gandhi’s actions and his followers won freedom for India.
Martin Luther King, Jr. is another American leader. In the 1950s and 1960s black Americans had
fewer rights than white Americans. King delivered a famous speech about the importance of
equality for all people. His efforts led to more equality in American society.
All three of these leaders fought for equality. They were determined to bring changes through
non-violent acts of civil disobedience(不服從). All three spoke with powerful messages that

2. Many Taiwanese see Chiang Wei-shui as a hero. He was born in Yilan County in 1891. He
was a physician by profession, but he also felt a great love for Taiwan as well, which led him to act
as a pioneer and form cultural movements against the ruling Japanese.
Taiwan was considered a Japanese colony. Chiang was able to see how unjust many things were
in Taiwan society. To begin with, Taiwanese people didn’t have the same rights as Japanese, who
put harsh laws in place. In 1921, he helped form the Taiwan Cultural Association, a group that
urged Taiwanese to learn about their own culture and fight for justice and human rights.
In a lecture at the Taiwan Cultural Association, Chiang described the colonial Taiwan as a patient
that needed to be cured. What caused the illness to the patient was the rule of the Japanese. Then,
Chiang was noticed by the Japanese authorities and was put in prison for his appeals against the
government. He ended up in jail numerous times in his life for a total of 144 days spent in prison.
In 1927, Chiang founded the Taiwanese People’s Party. This political party promoted freedom of
speech and association, along with self-rule for Taiwan. Once again, the party’s campaign went
directly against the rule of the Japanese, and the party was forced to break apart by the Japanese.
Chiang died in 1931. In his will, he gave his last hope that Taiwan would one day rule itself and

14 / 21
be free from outside forces. Nearly 90 years later, he is still seen as one of Taiwan’s great heroes,
and there are statues and parks in Taiwan that were created in honor of Chiang.
