On the first day of the 11th grade, our new math teacher Mr Washington asked me to go to the blackboard to do a math problem. I told him that I couldn’t do it. He asked, “Why not?” I paused, and then I said, “Because I’m educable mentally retarded (可教育智能迟滞).”
He came from behind his desk and looked at me. “Don’t ever say that again. Someone’s opinion of you does not have to become your reality,” he said.
It was a very special moment for me. Doctors said that I was educable mentally retarded in the fifth grade, and I was put back into the fourth grade. When I was in the eighth grade, I failed again.
But Mr Washington changed my life. This person always gave students the feeling that he had high expectations of them, and then all of the students did their best to live up to what those expectations were. He often said, “You have greatness within you.”
One day, I caught up with him in the parking place and said, “Mr Washington, is there greatness within me, sir?”
He said, “Yes, Mr Brown.”
“But what about the fact that I failed English, math, and history? What about that, sir? I’m slower than most kids.”
“It doesn’t matter. It just means that you have to work harder. Your grades don’t determine who you are or what you can produce in your life.”
“I want to buy my mother a house.”
“It is possible, Mr Brown. You can do that.” And he turned to walk away.
“Mr Washington?”
“What do you want now?”
“Uh, I’m the one, sir. One day you’re going to hear my name. I’m the one, sir.”
School was a real struggle for me. Mr Washington put many demands on me. He made me believe that I could do it. At the end of that year, I was on the honor roll for the first time in my life.
Years later, I produced five programs on public television. When one of my programs was shown on the educational television channel, I had some friends call him. I was sitting by the phone waiting when he called me. He said, “May I speak to Mr Brown, please?”
“Oh, Mr Washington, is that you?”
“Yes, it’s me. You were the one, weren’t you?”
“Yes, sir, I was.”
1.What does Mr Washington mean by saying “Someone’s opinion of you does not have to become your reality”?
A. You needn’t have the same opinion as others.
B. You should believe what other people say.
C. What other people say about you may not be correct.
D. The doctor made a mistake.
2.What happened to the author at last?
A. He entered a good university. B. He earned much honor.
C. He got a good job. D. He made television programs.
3.In the passage, the author implies that _________.
A. people shouldn’t believe what doctors say
B. no one can be successful with hard work and confidence
C. no one is really educable mentally retarded
D. a good teacher can change a student’s life
4.The best title for the passage would be “__________”.
A. Don’t believe others B. I am the one
C. My best teacher D. I succeeded at last

It was the first snow of winter – an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots (靴子).
In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will all be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence (信心).
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work. After much pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
“They’re my brother’s boots, you know,” I said. “I hate them!”
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying (烦人的) little girl, She pushed and pushed, less gently this time. With a greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens (连指手套)?”
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.”
1. The little girl was more satisfied with her_________.
A. trousers B. jacket C. boots D. hat
2.Miss Finlayson had difficulty with the girl’s boots mainly because________.
A. the girl got them from her brother B. the girl put something in them
C. they were on the wrong feet D. they did not fit the girl well
3.Why does the author say Miss Finlayson would remember that first snow day?
A. Because the little girl was in her brother’s clothes.
B. Because it was the most exciting day of the winter.
C. Because the little girl played a trick on her.
D. Because the little girl wore a pretty scarf.
4.We can learn from the text that Miss Finlayson_________.
A. was losing confidence in the little girl
B. gradually lost patience with the little girl
C. became disappointed with the little girl
D. was getting bored with the little girl
