5.NEW YORK----Family members gathered on Wednesday evening for the funeral of Eric Garner,who died shortly after police put him in a banned chokehold as they arrested him in Staten Island of New York,where the death has cause anger and a promise to reform police training.Garner's wife,Esaw Garner,entered the Bethel Baptist Church in Brooklyn,supported by two young boys,looking upset and exhausted.After her followed six children of the family.Garner's dying moments on a Staten Island sidewalk last Thursday were recorded on by bystanders.Mayor Bill Blasio,who was elected partly because he once promised to mend the worn relations between New York police and the local ethnic minorities,has called the death a tragedy.
In the videos,Garner,who was black,can be seen arguing with several police officers arresting him suspected of selling untaxed cigarettes outside a beauty parlor.
Moments later,he was down on the sidewalk with an officer's arm around his neck,pleading(懇求) repeatedly that he couldn't breathe.After he fell down,at least seven minutes passed without any apparent attempts at medical help.
The Staten Island district lawyer and the police department's internal affairs are investigating Garner's death.
The city's police have been banned from using the chokehold for more than 20years because it can be deadly,particularly when used on someone who is overweight,as Garner was.
Two of the police officers involved have been put on desk duty and four emergency response workers were suspended without pay.Actually,a complete check of police training was started on Tuesday,focusing on the proper use of force.

10.Heads of states from around the world gathered in South Africa on Dec.10,2013 for a farewell to Nelson Mandela,the respected statesman against racial inequality.
Born in 1918 in a country where blacks and other non-whites were racially separated in every manner possible:education,hospital,public transport,even beaches,Mandela fought a lifelong battle for freedom and justice for all.
In the 1940s,Mandela and the Youth League of the Africa National Congress(ANC非國大青年聯(lián)盟) were active to help organize strikes and demonstrations(示威) against the country's system of racial inequality-Some blacks were forcibly removed from homes and they had no right to vote.As a result,he and several other ANC leaders were arrested in 1963.
Despite facing the death penalty,Mandela told the court that his action had been for the ideal of a free,democratic (民主的) society with equal opportunity for all races."It is an ideal for which I am prepared to die,"Mandela said at the time.Later he and his fellows escaped the death and were sentenced to life in prison,where he spent the next 27 years.Even in prison,he never stopped fighting.
On Feb.11,1990,having endured great hardships,and after nearly two years of secret negotiation,Mandela walked to freedom through the gate of Cape Town's Victor Verster prison,watched by cameras and broadcast live around the world.Four years later,he was again in the international spotlight when he celebrated the outcome of South Africa's first democratic elections,becoming the country's first black president.
