Lesson 6 Haiti's Mother Teresa
Part 1
There are many countries around the world which few of us know well.
One such nation is located in the Caribbean Sea, on the island of
位置する
Hispaniola. The nation is the Republic of Haiti, where 80% of the
共和国
population live under the poverty line. It is regarded as one of the poorest
countries in the world.
Haiti was the first independent nation in Latin America and the first
独立国家
black-led country in the world after a successful slave rebellion in 1804.

people there, just as Mother Teresa did for the poorest of the poor around
the world. This dedicated medical doctor and nun is often called "Haiti's

Mother Teresa."
In 1976, at the age of 49, Sudo went to Haiti to treat people with

tuberculosis. Since then, she has tried to improve their lives not only
with her medical skills but also with the power of love. Why does she

keep working so hard in the face of many difficulties?
