The Mashup of Three News Articles

The power and equality of women in this engaging developed world have been remarkably empowered by many women such as, Angela Markel, Helen Keller and Miranda Kerr. Angela Markel is a good example in enforcing women to get involved in politics. She became the first female chancellor of Germany in 2005 at the age of 51, making her one of the longest-serving leaders among Europe's major power. Once, she predicted that her government would be hobbled by internal problems and might soon collapse. However, she later emerges as a leading political actor in Europe, and, having forged a surprisingly warm relationship with leaders of the world.


On the other hand, Helen Keller who lost her hearing and vision at 19 months has educated women to achieve their dreams in spite of their disability. When she was 9 years old, she made an enormous progress in learning how to write. She wrote, "I study about the earth and the animals, and I like arithmetic exceedingly”. Afterwards, Keller becomes a prolific writer, a peacemaker, a passionate advocate, not just for blind and disabled people, but for equal rights.

Another magnificent woman, Miranda Kerr who is an intelligent super model, inspires young women to raise awareness about the environment. She is the face of the Australian Koala Foundation which aims to protect koalas' natural habitat. She said, "I believe every effort we make now has a reaction. If we're all doing the simple, small things we can do to help the environment, it makes a big difference''.
