Unit 4. CARING FOR THOSE IN NEED
Part V. READING
Exercise
9. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the
correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks.
Humanitarian
Dorothea Dix was born in Hampden, Maine, in 1802. At the age of 19, she
established a school for girls, the Dix Mansion School, in Boston, but had to
close it in 1835 due to her poor health. She wrote and published the first of
many books for children in 1824. In 1841, Dix accepted an invitation to teach
classes at a prison in East Cambridge, Massachusetts. She was deeply disturbed
by the sight of mentally-ill persons thrown in the jail and treated like
criminals. For the next eighteen months, she toured Massachusetts institutions
where other mental patients were confined and reported the shocking
conditions she found to the state legislature. When improvements followed in
Massachusetts, she turned her attention to the neighbouring states and then to
the West and South.
Dix's work was
interrupted by the Civil War; she served as superintendent of women hospital
nurses for the federal government.
Dix saw special
hospitals for the mentally-ill built in some fifteen states. Although her plan
to obtain public land for her cause failed, she aroused concern for the problem
of mental illnesses all over the United States as well as in Canada and Europe.
Dix's success
was due to her independent and thorough research, her gentle but persistent
manner, and her ability to secure the help of powerful and wealthy supporters.
