VI. Read the text about Mother Teresa and answer questions that follow.
Mother Teresa was one of the most influential personalitiesofthetwentieth century. However, her life was neither easy nor glamorous. She was born in Skopje, Macedonia in 1910. At the age of 18 she left her home in Skopje and joined the Sisters of Loreto, an Irish community of nuns with missions in India. She went to India as a missionary. She became a teacher of English in a secondary school. The school was in a nice area but there were slums nearby. Conditions there were absolutely terrible. She was horrified by what she saw. She insisted on leaving her comfortable convent and going to live among the poor. At first her superiors tried to discourage her from leaving the convent, but in the end they agreed to let her go.
Soon other people heard about her work and came to help her. Although she had no money herself, she succeeded in building shelters for the dying and schools for the poor. By the 1990s she had become famous and she was eventually given the Nobel Prize for her service to the poor. Mother Teresa died on September 5th, 1997.
