Girl Power

Dear Dad,

Boarding (寄宿) school has been great!

Yesterday, we were required to watch a speech to prepare us for our year-end examinations. It was a video recording of a young Pakistani woman speaking in front of a huge crowd of more than 500 United Nations’ student representatives (代表) - including youths from European, African and Asian countries-on her 16th birthday in 2013. The woman’s name is Malala Yousafzai.

The Taliban took control of Malala’s city in 2007. When they banned (禁止) girls from going to school in 2008, Malala fought against it and dared to speak out, even though she could get into trouble. From time to time, she wrote diary entries (條目) for the BBC. The New York Times also did a documentary (紀(jì)錄片) on her. They were helpful in showing the world how terrible it was living under the Taliban. This made Malala an important public person.

In 2012, the Taliban dealt with her by shooting her in the head. But Malala lived. In her speech, she said, “They thought that the bullets would silence us. But they failed.” She survived and now fights even harder for education for all children. There was huge applause (掌聲) at the end of her speech.

Malala has refused to stay silent. Today, she has been interviewed countless times and even has a day named after her. Malala Day, as declared by the United Nations, falls on the 12th of July. It is a day to remember the most powerless (無力的) girls from all over the world. Malala is a huge influence and is also the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.

I used to think speeches were just words! But hearing Malala has encouraged me to become a teacher! I hope you’re proud of me.
