My Role Model
First draft:

My role model is the activist Malala Yousafzai. I admire her, because she is

intelligent, brave and a peaceful woman, she works and study at the same time
promoting the importance of education and human rights around the world. First,

she is a very brave girl, when she lived in Pakistan, she was a volunteer to write a
blog for the BBC, describing life under Taliban’s regimen. In those days girls were

not allowed to go to school, or even speak spontaneously and for that reason she

was almost killed by a Taliban in 2012. Second, she forgiving, after a Taliban shot
at her in her head and neck, she decided to forgive him and she did not present a

demand against him. After that Malala moved to England, because her country is
not a safe place to live, but she still promoting peace and working with organizations

a favor of human rights and female education rights in Middle East. Finally she is
intelligent. She is the best in her class and she also works in schools of Middle East

in her free time, she travels a lot given speeches and promoting her ideas. She won

a Novel Peace Price for her job. Malala is the youngest woman to receive that prize.
Many people including politicians admire her because she was one of the few

people who showed issues in the Middle East and because her job against violence.
For those reasons I would like to be like her and fight for humans rights.
