1. Reading Passage

The Knights Templar occupy a unique place in Crusades history. The Templars were the first Christian warriors organized as an official part of the Catholic church. They were first formed to protect pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land after the First Crusade successfully returned Jerusalem to Christian control.

The Templars recru ited members from the knightly warrior class that ruled Europe in the Middle Ages. These members were already highly trained warriors before entering the Templars, where they received further training. Members of the Templars generally joined the order while in Europe and were then transferred to the Holy Land , resulting in a mass transfer of manpower from Europe to the Middle East. The Templars needed constant recruitment to refresh their ranks due to losses in battle.

Like the monks in Europe at the start of the Middle Ages, the Templars followed strict rules designed to keep them away from sin . Knights entering the Templar order were expected to take a vow of poverty. In fact , the ban on material wealth was so strict that any Templar brother who was found with money on his person was expelled from the order. The Templars also followed a rigid diet. Finally, Templars were not allowed to marry and avoided contact with women.

The Templars were based in Jerusalem and played a vital role in the defense of the Holy Land. The strict rules made the Templars the most disciplined and effective military force in the region. While many of the secular knights who traveled to the Holy Land were primarily motivated by the promise of gaining treasure, the Templars were motivated by their faith , and thus their actions were primarily selfless. This meant that they were will ing to take on missions that held little promise of profit, such as guarding pilgrims.

OK, uh, today we need to talk a bit more about the Templars. You know, the Templars figure so largely in our popular conceptions of the Crusades that there are a lot of inaccuracies surrounding them. We have this image of, uh, well, this poor, chivalrous warrior fighting for his religion .. . and that's not entirely false, but it's not entirely true either.

First, we know that the Templars were a military order of the church. But actually, only about 30% of the Templars were knights. You see, they were such a huge organization ... uh, spread halfway across the known world at that time, that they needed a sizable support staff. Many of the members of the Templar order performed strictly clerical duties in Europe and were as far removed from the danger and chaos of battle as you or I.

Another thing ... the Templars were definitely not poor. OK, individual Templars were forbidden to carry money, but as an organization they were fantastically rich. The authority the Pope had given them exempted them from paying taxes, and the European nobility gave generously to the Templars. They had land holdings spread all over the Middle East and Europe. Uh, actually, here's something that might surprise you ... the Templars were the primary source of loans when the monarchs of Europe were strapped for cash .

Uh, that brings me to a final common misconception. The motivations of the Templars were not entirely religious in nature. Sure, some knights did enter the order out of sincere religious conviction . But you have to remember that the Templars were one of the largest and most influential organizations in European society at the time. Their leaders wielded enormous wealth and influence. So for many, especially the younger sons of a noble family who couldn 't expect to inherit land or title, entering the Templars was simply a wise career move.

Templars took vows of poverty and were strictly forbidden from gaining material wealth.

Templars joined out of religious conviction and a selfless desire to protect their fellow Christians.

The professor say that much of what we think about the Templars is false. The professor makes three main paints, each of which casts doubt on what was stated in the reading.

Firstly, the lecture states that most members of the Templars were not actually warriors , and most of them were stationed in Europe, not in the holy land. This was because, the

PRRT _R Integrated Writing I 15

Templars, as the huge international organization, had a large support staff and many Templars were just doing clerical things. This contradicts the reading because the reading says that the Templars moved huge numbers of warriors to the holy land, but the professor said that most Templars stayed in Europe and didn't fight.

Secondly, the professor stresses the wealth of the Templars. The professor says that individual Templars were not rich , but that the organization was very rich . The Pope prohibited the Templars from paying taxes, and this allowed them to become very rich. They were so rich that they could give loans to the kings of Europe. The reading , however, talks about the templar's vow of poverty. Based on the professor's lecture, this is incorrect.

Finally, the professor shows that many templars were younger sons in their family and so they couldn't get the land. They just joined the templars to help their careers because it was powerful organization. The reading says that the Templars joined for religious reasons, and did not act in their own self-interest. Again , this seems to be incorrect based on the professor's lecture .

The Knights Templar was an organization of a military force fo the church. It is well known for protecting Pilgrims when they were going to the Holy land. But there has been many misunderstandings about them. Some of the misunderstandings are, there members, wealth , and the point of joining it.

It is known that the members were mostly knights. But the truth is that only 30 percent of the members were knights, most were doing clerical duties. Which means that most members of the Knights Templar was not involved in any danger. This makes the part of the reading where it says it recruited knights. When in reality it was only a 30 percent of the members who were knights.

In the reading passage it mentions that the knights were very poor. But that is not entirely true. Knights in indivisual may not have been so rich , but the organization itself was very rich. The organization had lands they owned all over Europe. Even more it was the main subject for loans. Most people, when lacked money they came to the Knights Templar for loan. In truth the organization was very wealthy.

Religion is the most commonly known reason for entering the organization. But only a


few joined for religion. Most members were sons of less wealthier families with low chance inheriting land or wealth. Joining the Knights Templar was an execellant opportunity to own some land. Furthermore, the organization had huge inspiration. Joining it would be a chance to become famous and well treated. The common knowledge about the Knights Templar seems not intirely true. Wealth , members are some of them. Sometime knowledge i

The lecture and the passage both points out that the templars are the first Christian warriors that protected the piligrins The passage describes templars as poor warriors fighting for their religion , but the lecture casts doubt about this There are two of them , and they were that the templars were not all knights, and that the organization itself was quite rich.

The first point that the lecture made is that not all of the templars were knights. Since the templars was such a big organization , it needed many people to take care of it. In fact, only 30% of the templars actually fought, the others were far removed from the war. This point doubts on the poin from the passage that templars were warriors that fought for their religion .

The second point is that the organization was very rich . Although the individuals were very strict on banning wealth , the organization itself had many money. The pope that gave money to the templars didn't make them pay taxes. This casts a doubt on the point from the passage that the templars were very poor. The lecture doubted on two things. One was pointing out that there were only 30% of the templars were knights, although the templars individuals were poor, the templars orginization itself was very rich.These are the things that the lecture mentioned about the templars .

The knights Templars were important to the history and society. They were close to the Catholic church. They were went to the Holy Land for protect pilgrims.

They were also traveling. They leamed how to fighting, and being knights. In paragraph number two says, they joined the order while in Europe and were them trasferred to the Holy Land, resulting in a mass trasfer of man power from Europe to the Middle East. I guess this group of Templars are very big and popular.

The Templars followed rules, that is for keep them. In fact, templars were not allowed to marry and avoided contact with women. I think this group is really hard to join in. The Templars strict rules and they are effective. The listenning passage tells they were rich . They could find the treasures, too. They were taking missions and very courage at the mission. Protect pilgrim is example of this truth .

In 1979, the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) or what is now popularly known as the International Women's Rights Treaty. This treaty was the first to address women's issues in the political , cultural , social , and economic area. It ensured that women's rights were recognized and protected by law. By accepting the treaty, governments around the world agreed to abolish all discriminatory laws, and adopt appropriate ones that would effectively protect the rights of women.

One country that strongly believes in the treaty's ideals is the United States. It has always been active in fighting for women's rights, and has laid down laws that allow women to get the same opportunities as men. For example, the United States was one of the first countries to allow women to attend college, vote in elections, and enter careers in the fields of science and engineering. Their actions and laws led other countries to start recognizing women's rights, and to grant them the same opportunities as the men in society.

Today, women's rights are recognized everywhere. More and more women are making strides in fields such as politics, science, and business. In fact, some countries have female presidents and CEOs of major companies. They are able to attend the same colleges as men, get equal pay, and are free to make their own choices in regards to their health and education. Discrimination has been removed from the modern workplace, and violations against women's rights are now brought to court for justice.
