Q.2 SEEN PASSAGE. 05
Students! You must have seen the picture of an old lady, hardly five feet tall, with high cheek – bones,
thin lips and a wrinked face, clad in a white saree with a blue border covering the head. This is Mother Teresa
often called ‘The Gentle Mother’ or the ‘Angel of Mercy.’
Mother Teresa was born in Skopje, Macedonia on August 27, 1910. Her family was of Albanian descent. Her
Original name was Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu. At the age of eighteen, she renounced the world and joined the
Loreto nuns Ireland. She used to work from 4 a.m. to late at night. The dying in Kolkata, the wounded in
Vietnam, the Starving in Ethiopia – all turned to this frail looking woman for support . She always embraced the
needy and the suffering all over the world. The mission established by her is still busy in doing the same even
after her death. She received a number of awards and distinctions, including the Pope John XXIII Peace Prize in
1971 and the Nobel peace prize in 1979.

1. Why was Mother Teresa called ‘the Angel of Mercy’?

4. Which awards did she get in 1971 and 1979?

Answer:
Space is the boundless three-dimensional extent in which objects and events have relative position and direction. Physical space is often conceived in three linear dimensions, although modern physicists usually consider it, with time, to be part of a boundless four-dimensional continuum known as spacetime.
