[01:48.77]2. Read   Mother Teresa

[01:54.05]"Charity begins at home" is an English saying.

[01:59.51]It means 6 that we should be kind

[02:03.66]and give a lot to our relatives and to people near us.

[02:09.12]But it doesn't mean that charity should "end at home".

[02:14.48]  Charity took one famous lady far away from her home.

[02:20.64]Mother Teresa spent most of her life in Calcutta,India.

[02:26.60]She was born in Yugoslavia in 1910.

[02:32.06]When she was 18 years old she decided 7 to become a nun 8.

[02:38.90]Soon after words,she was sent to India.

[02:43.97]At first,she worked in a school in Calcutta.

[02:49.33]Most of the students were from rich families,

[02:54.05]and Mother Teresa's life was rather comfortable.

[02:58.89]After 20 years,

[03:02.52]she felt that God wanted her to leave the school and help poor people.

[03:09.28]First she opened a small school that was free.

[03:14.85]Some of her old students came to help her at her new school.

[03:20.72]In 1950 she started the Missionaries 9 of Charity that was made up of nuns 10.

[03:28.77]  At that time,Calcutta was a very poor city,as it still is today.

[03:36.82]Many people went there from the country,hopeing to find work.

[03:42.77]They often had nowhere to stay,

[03:46.85]so they had to live on the streets or under bridges.

[03:52.59]In Calcutta's hot and humid climate,it was easy for them to get sick.

[03:59.73]Hospitals in Calcutta couldn't treat the large number of sick people.

[04:06.70]Besides,they would not take in patients who were dying 11.

[04:12.34]  It was these poor and sick people that Mother Teresa decided to help.

[04:19.32]In 1952,she opened the first Home for the Dying.

[04:26.16]Some people didn't like it because they were afraid of having dying people in their neighbourhood.

[04:33.53]They also thought the nuns were trying to get them to change their religion.

[04:39.30]But slowly the people changed their minds.

[04:44.34]They began to see all the good that Mother Teresa and her nuns were doing.

[04:50.40]Later,Mother Teresa became very famous,

[04:55.16]and received a lot of money from people who wanted to support he work.

[05:01.22]In 1979 she won the Nobel Peace Prize.

[05:07.28]More people have begun to do charity work since then.

[05:12.24]Now there are Homes for the Dying in many different countries.

[05:17.88]  Mother Teresa died in 1997,

[05:22.85]but she is still remembered all over the world for what she did for the poor.

[05:29.01]She is also remembered for her words of wisdom 12.

[05:33.87]She once said,"Do not only give others your care,but also your love."
