Benito Juarez，a poor Indian boy，was twelve years old when he left his village home in December 1818.Benito walked forty-one miles to the city of Oaxaca，high in the mountains of Mexico. When he heard the Spanish spoken by the city people，Benito didn't know what they were saying.
First，Benito became a servant for a wealthy gentleman，Serer Maza. Soon，he went to work for Antonio Salanueva ,a church(教会)librarian.Antonio repaired and copied the library books，keeping them in good shape. Benito became his helper and his housekeeper.Antonio loved to teach.Benito soon became his student as well as his servant.With the help of Antonio，Benito learned to speak，read，and write Spanish.
At that time in Mexico，many people believed that Indians were not smart enough to read or learn.Antonio knew that was not true.Indians had been prevented from learning by a lack of schools. The first Spanish missionaries(传教士)who came to Mexico had educated the native people. In fact，churches from Spain had built the first college on the North American continent(大陆)for the Indians. As more Spanish came to Mexico，however，the Indian children were crowded out of the schools.
Benito was a good and bright student，so Antonio developed a plan for him. In 1821，when Benito was fifteen，Antonio decided to enroll him in a school for boys.Antonio taught Benito what he needed to pass the entrance test for the school.
Benito became a student at the college.His studies were difficult，and he was teased because he was the only Indian student there.He succeeded in spite of these challenges.Later，as the laws changed，Benito was able to attend a public college with other Indians.
Benito Juarez continued his education and became a lawyer and，much later，the President of Mexico from 1861 to 1872. He led the Mexican people to victory over the French，who tried to rule Mexico，and fought for the rights of Indians. He is one of the great heroes in Mexican history.
1.When Benito first arrived in the city of Oaxaca，he_______.
A. lost touch with his family B. got the language problem
C. studied in a church library D. lived in the mountain
2.According to the passage，Antonio was a_______.
A. good teacher B. rich gentleman
C. strict housekeeper D. helpful villager
3.In Mexico，many Indian children couldn't get an education，because_______.
A. they were less smart B. there were not enough schools
C. there were too many native people D. they were too poor to go to school
4.What should be put into the timeline?
A. Became a lawyer. B. Attended a public college.
C. Be the only Indian student. D. Elected to be the President.
5.What is probably the best title of the passage?
A. A young student in Mexico. B. Fighting for the rights.
