亡羊补牢

- Pas besoin de patins à glace pour moi, lance le petit ours blanc. Sur la banquise, je glisse comme un champion classe tous risques ! Un petit virage à droite ! Un autre à gauche ! Avec mes quatre pattes pleines de griffes, pas de problème de dérapage.
Un matin, pourtant, je suis tombé dans un trou de la glace, au milieu des poissons. Heureusement qu’un phoque m’a poussé avec son nez, sinon j’y serais resté !

Narrator: Malala attended the girls’ school that her father had founded, but when the Swat Valley came under the control of the Taliban in 2007, the family, including her two younger brothers, had to leave. The Taliban is a political and religious group that follows a strict form of Islam. They do not believe that girls should attend a school or that women should play an active part in society. Upon the family’s return in 2008, Malala gave her first public speech, called “How dare the Taliban to take away my basic right to an education?” As the Taliban continued with their violent campaign of closing and destroying girls’ schools, Malala started to blog for the BBC under a different name.

Narrator: On the ninth of October 2012, Malala was traveling home from school when a Taliban gunman got onto her bus and asked, “Who is Malala?” She was shot in the head and had to be transferred to the UK for medical care.
