聊一聊曼德拉的一生，為什么他被關(guān)了27年

聊一聊曼德拉的一生，為什么他被關(guān)了27年

來聽今天的講解:

A: I've had a great idea for a movie, Nelson Mandela.

我有個好主意，拍一部有關(guān)納爾遜•曼德拉的電影。

B: Well. that would certainly be an intcrcsting topic.

這個話題肯定有意思。

A: I thought that we could start in his childhood, his life in prison and then his achievements later in life

我想我們可以從他的童年開始講起，接著是獄中生活，再下來是他晚年所取得的成就。

B: Sounds good. Mandela was educated at a local mission school.  He entered the University College of Fort Hare and quickly became active in student politics.

聽起來不錯。曼德拉是在當(dāng)?shù)匾凰虝W(xué)校上的學(xué)，后來進入了海爾堡大學(xué)，很快就成了學(xué)生政治運動的積極分子。

A: Is that why hc was kicked out of university?

他是不是因為這個被大學(xué)開除了？

是這樣。我認(rèn)為在當(dāng)時那個時代，他講話太大膽了。

A: So then he moved to Johannesburg and finished his university education. He then entcred into the study and subsequendy the practice of law.

所以后來他搬到了約翰內(nèi)斯堡，在那里上完了大學(xué)。接著也開始鉆研法律，隨后就開業(yè)當(dāng)律師。

B: I think law was a good choice of major for him.

我想，對他而言法律專業(yè)是最佳選擇。

A: After that, he formed the ANC ( African NationaJ Congrress) Youth League, to transform the ANC from an elitist political union into a more broadly-based politicaJ movement.

此后，他組建了非洲人國民大會（非國大）青年聯(lián)盟，把非國大從一個由少數(shù)精英參與的政治聯(lián)盟變成了廣大群眾參與的政治運動。

B: As the apartheid policy began to reach deeper into South Afiican life, Mandela found himself constandy in opposition to the official political line of the Afrikaner-dominated govemment. He was banned, then arrested during the late 1950s.

由于種族隔離政策開始越來越深地影響了南非人民的生活，曼德拉經(jīng)常發(fā)現(xiàn)自己與南非白人領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的政府立場相反。20世紀(jì)50年代末他被禁止參加公眾集會，隨后遭到逮捕。
