Step 3.

Reported speech on the Dalai Lama.

The Dalai Lama-Reported speech on the listening form famouspeoplelessons.com

The Listening from famouspeople.com stated that the Dalai lama had been born in Tibet on

the 6th of July 1935. It says that his real name was Tenzin Gyatso. It affirms that he was the

leader of Tibet’s Buddhists but that he lived in India, where thousands of his followers visited

him. The audio reported also stated that he was the most famous Buddhist monk. They said he

campaigned for freedom in Tibet and peace in the World.

They say Tenzin had become Dalai Lama when he was just two years old, that he had

become Tibet’s ruler in November 1950; when he had turned fifteen. That happened one month

after China had taken over Tibet. His first big job had been to try and save his country from

Chinese rule. They say, he had tried it for nine years, but then he had had to scape to India. The

audio says that he had never been back.

The article also says the he had traveled to the west-to Europe and the Americas. Thousands

of people had welcomed him. It is said that he had helped to spread love and harmony around the

world. As well, he gave speeches wherever he went and he had won many awards. He had gotten

the Nobel Peace prize in 1989. It says that he was always a famous figure on the news.

The Dalai Lama had been one the best-loved and most well-known world leaders for many

decades. The listening tells us that he continued to as China to give his Tibetan people more

control over their land. That he made Chinese leaders angry by talking about Tibet. It says that

one day he might meet them and talk about a better and brighter future.
