Background information
The Battle of Gettysburg
The Battle of Gettysburg (1-3 July 1863) was a famous battle of the American Civil War. It involved more than 160,000 men and resulted in some of the heaviest losses of the war, on both sides. The battle was a defeat for the South, and is now regarded by many as the turning point of the civil war, although its significance was not clear at the time; indeed, the great slaughter gave rise to doubt in some quarters about the wisdom of continuing the war. Abraham Lincoln set the battle at the heart of his vision for Union victory when he delivered The Gettysburg Address, at the Dedication of the National Cemetery at the battlefield site in November 1863.

post-reading
Work in groups. Give a talk about the significance of abolishing slavery in the US.
The US was divided into states in the North that prohibited slavery, and states in the South which allowed slavery and depended upon slavery economically. Slavery was a very cruel institution, and caused great human suffering in the states that permitted it. Reliance on slavery also made the South less technologically advanced than the North.
Slaves were freed and were regarded as equal under the law, at least in theory. In practice, black Americans continued to suffer great discrimination in the South for the next hundred years, until the birth of the modern civil rights movement in the 1960s. The legacy of slavery continues to affect race relations in the US today.
Read the speech on Edgar Snow and answer the questions.
1.Who was Edgar Snow
2.What did he do and what boundaries did he break
He was an American journalist who wrote influential books and articles about China in the 1930s.
He actually spent time with the Chinese Red Army and listened to their stories and observed their day-to-day lives, He also conducted interviews with Mao Zedong and other leaders. His book Red Star over broke ideological boundaries bytelling the China stories of the Chinese communist movement from the inside.

Opening
Good morning, everyone. Today I'm going to introduce a great man who devoted his life to practising medicine for the people of China - Or Norman Bethune. He was born in 1890, in Canada. He was a complicated person who was both very creative and very stubborn. He was also very hard-working, and wanted to make a difference in the world. In fact, he invented or improved numerous surgical procedures and surgical instruments. However, it was in China that he would break national boundaries by becoming one of the few Western doctors to help the Chinese in their wartime struggle.
His contribution to the welfare of the Chinese people was not only unusual, but immense.
Sample
Body
Having married a wealthy woman, Bethune had once enjoyed a luxurious lifestyle in Canada. However, his social conscience developed during the 1930s, with a visit to the Soviet Union and time as a surgeon during the Spanish Civil War. In January 1938, he left Canada again, this time to help the soldiers in China's Eighth Route Army. It was no easy journey. Travelling thousands of kilometres, he did not reach Yan'an until the end of March. By June, he was working at the front. He soon saw that the medical situation for the troops and local people was bad. There were not enough medicines or surgical instruments, and the medical staff were not well trained.
Sample
Body
Bethune worked hard to help the wounded and train his staff, even inventing medical equipment that was suitable for guerilla warfare in China. The pace at which Bethune worked can be seen in a battle during April 1939, when he performed 115 operations in only 69 hours. The Chinese, though they sometimes found Bethune difficult because of his stubbornness, admired him greatly because of his ceaseless hard work and his dedication to helping the Chinese people. But tragedy struck when Bethune cut himself while conducting an operation. He soon contracted blood poisoning and died on 12 November 1939.
Sample
Summary
Dr Norman Bethune had worked tirelessly as a surgeon, teacher and hospital administrator for the Chinese people. Their struggle became his own. Although he was not Chinese, he sacrificed his life for them. In December 1939, Chairman Mao Zedong wrote an article "In Memory of Norman Bethune", as a tribute to Bethune, and called on the Chinese people to learn from his example. Dr Norman Bethune remains the greatest inspiration for anyone who believes that we must fight alongside others for justice - even if they are from a different nation to our own.

Summary
Dr Norman Bethune had worked tirelessly as a surgeon, teacher and hospital administrator for the Chinese people. Their struggle became his own. Although he was not Chinese, he sacrificed his life for them. In December 1939, Chairman Mao Zedong wrote an article "In Memory of Norman Bethune", as a tribute to Bethune, and called on the Chinese people to learn from his example. Dr Norman Bethune remains the greatest inspiration for anyone who believes that we must fight alongside others for justice - even if they are from a different nation to our own.
