HUMAN RIGHTS

1. Look through the text. Find the English equivalents to the following words and expressions (the words and expressions in bold)

подписать договор; достигать; принять (что-либо официально); признавать; безотносительно к расе, полу, языку или религии; нарушение прав человека; право на справедливый суд; подчиняться; продвигать; связывать обязательствами; цель; быть свободным от рабства и насилия (пыток); принимать на веру (без доказательств).

When the Second World War ended in 1945, many countries in the world learnt about the terrible human rights abuses that had happened during the conflict, and most governments thought it would be a good idea to establish an international standard for human rights that every country should try to achieve in future. One of the main aims of the United Nations (UN), created in 1945, was to promote respect for human rights all around the world. The organization soon decided it needed a document stating the human rights that all countries should respect, and on 10^th December 1948 it adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The UN had to respect national sovereignty, so the UDHR was not a law that countries had to obey. It was, however, an important list of principles, and in the years since 1948 it has formed the basis for UN treaties on the subject of human rights. Many countries have signed these treaties, thereby committing themselves to following the rules they contain.

Some of the rights in the UDHR are so fundamental that it is easy to take them for granted. Perhaps we should remember, therefore, that a hundred years ago most of the world's governments respected only a few of the rights in the UDHR, and also that many human rights abuses are still taking place in the world today. The UDHR begins by stating that people should have the same rights regardless of their race, sex, language or religion. It then gives a list of basic rights including the right to be free from slavery and torture, the right to own property, the right to an education, the right to privacy at home, and the right to a fair trial. As you might expect, there have been some arguments about some parts of the UDHR. For example, some countries have suggested that the document expresses a more 'western' view of the world, ignoring other religious and cultural traditions. One fact everyone seems to agree on, however, is that the UDHR exists in more languages than any other written document in the world - more than 300 in total!

2. Read the text. Answer the following questions :

1) When and why did the most governments decide to establish an international standard for human rights?

2) What does UDHR stand for?

3) What are the basic human rights?

4) What is special about UDHR?

Decide if the following statements are true (T), false (F), or the text doesn’t say anything about it (D). Correct the false ones.

1) The United Nations (UN) was created in 1945.

2) The UDHR was a law that all the countries had to obey.

3) The UDHR was a list of 7 basic principles.

4) Now there are few human rights abuses in the world today.

5) Some countries think that the UDHR ignores traditions of Eastern countries.

3. Write the missing words in the grid. If your words are correct you will read one of the other rights contained in UDHR.
