I grew up in a tiny Baltimore row house in a faraway mountain area. My parents the necessities of life they couldn’t give much more. If I asked my father a pair of jeans, he would say, “If you want them, make the money and buy them .” He wasn’t being mean; he just couldn’t them. From age 12 on, I did part-time jobs after school. When I from high school, I joined the navy. Soon I was in a boot camp(新兵训练营) at Parris Island, S. C., where I learned that life in the navy centered around completing daily . These could be anything from cleaning the camp to conducting mock(模拟的) battles. Completing these tasks successfully discipline, team-work and responsibility.

The part of my job I most was the consulting(咨询) meetings I with the family members of the men and women in my , trying to help them deal with the long periods of . These proved popular and word of them spread. I was being asked to give encouraging to business groups, educators and kids across the country. But I consider the boot camp my first real , and my life is still guided by the lessons I learned there. It taught me discipline, friendship and the pride related to setting a task every day and working hard to it.

Many of us have heard stories about teachers who can “see” into a student’s future. Even if a student is not performing well, they can predict success. We are convinced that this ability, this gift, is evidence that they were “called to teach.” If the gift of sight is evidence, how greater must be the gift of touch. I have a story. I grew up in the fifties in a poor African American neighborhood in Stockton, California, that had neither sidewalks nor an elementary school. Each day, always in groups at our parents’ insistence, my friends and I would leave home early enough to walk eight blocks to school and be in our seats when the bell rang. For four blocks, we walked on dusty roads. By the fifth block, we walked on sidewalks that led to lovely homes and to Fair Oaks Elementary School. It was at Fair Oaks, in a sixth grade English class, that I met Ms. Victoria Hunter, a teacher who had a huge influence on my life. During reading periods, she would walk around the room, stop at our desks, stand over us for a second or two, and then touch us. Without saying anything to us (nothing could break the silence of reading periods), she would place two fingers lightly on our throats and hold them there for seconds. I learned many years later when I was a student at Stanford University that teachers touch the throat of students to check for sub-vocalization (默读), which slows down the reading speed. I did not know at the time why Ms. Hunter was touching our throats, but I was a serious and respectful student and so, during silent reading period, I did what Ms. Hunter told us to do. I kept my eyes on the material I was reading and waited for her to place her fingers lightly on my throat. One day, out of curiosity, I raised my head from my book — though not high — so that I could see Ms. Hunter, a white woman from Canada, moving up and down the rows, stopping at the desks of my classmates. I wanted to see how they reacted when she touched their throats. She walked past them. I was confused. Did she pass them by because they were model students? What did we, the students who were touched, not do right? I sat up straighter in my chair, thinking that my way of sitting might be the problem. I was confused. Several days later, I watched again, this time raising my head a little higher. Nothing changed. Ms. Hunter touched the same students. Always, she touched me. She touched me with her hands. She also touched me with her belief in my ability to achieve. She motivated me by demanding the best from me and by letting teachers I would meet in junior high school know that I should be challenged, that I would be serious about my work. I am convinced that she touched me because she could “see” me in the future. That was true of all of us at Fair Oaks who sat still and silent as Ms. Hunter placed her fingers lightly on our throats. We left Fair Oaks as “best students,” entered John Marshall Junior High School, finished at the top of our high school class, and went on to earn graduate degrees in various subjects. Ms. Hunter saw us achieving and she touched us to make certain that we would. I was not surprised that she came to my graduation ceremony at Edison High School in Stockton or that she talked to me about finishing college and earning a Ph. D. She expected that of me. She gave me a beautifully wrapped box. Inside was a gift, the beauty of which multiplies even as it touches me: a necklace to which I can add charms for each stage of my life. 小题1:According to the writer, what is a special ability many good teachers possess?A.The ability to make all students behave well. | B.The ability to treat different students in the same way. | C.The ability to discover a student’s potential to succeed. | D.The ability to predict the near future of a poor student. | 小题2:When she saw Ms. Hunter walk past some students without touching their throats, the writer felt ______. A.disturbed | B.puzzled | C.ashamed | D.annoyed | 小题3:What does the writer mean by “a necklace to which I can add charms for each stage of my life” (paragraph 6)?A.A gift which encourages me to do well on the journey of my life. | B.A gift which becomes more and more valuable as time goes by. | C.A necklace which I wear on all important occasions in my life. | D.A necklace which suits me and adds to my charm. | 小题4:Which of the following serves as the best title for the story?A.Ms. Hunter’s Surprise | B.Ms. Hunter’s Challenge | C.A Teacher’s Touch | D.A Teacher’s Memory |

When Julio Diaz stepped off the subway after work one night, he was simply planning to go to his favorite local diner for a meal. But when a teenage boy approached him with a knife, Diaz knew the evening was about to take a more dramatic(巨大而突然的) turn. The young man demanded Diaz’s wallet, and Diaz passed it over without objection(异议). But just as he turned to walk away, Diaz called, “Hey, wait a minute. You forgot something.” The young man turned around, surprised. “If you’re going to rob people for the rest of the night, you might as well take my coat to keep warm.” The teenager looked at Diaz in disbelief, and asked why he would do such a thing. Diaz replied, “If you’re willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, I guess you must really need the money.”He said he was heading out for dinner, and that he would be happy to take someone with him. The young man decided to take Diaz up on his offer. As they were sitting at the table, the manager, dishwashers and waiters all stopped over to say hello to Diaz, and the young man was amazed at his popularity. “Haven’t you been taught that you should be nice to everybody?”Diaz asked him. “Yeah, but I didn’t think people actually behaved that way,” the teenager replied. Thanks to Diaz, he was beginning to see that kindness wasn’t so strange, after all. When the bill came, Diaz told the teen that he’d have to get the check. After all, he still had Diaz’s wallet. But the teenager put the wallet on the table without a moment’s thought, and Diaz treated him to dinner. Diaz also gave the would-be robber a $20 bill — in exchange for his knife. “I figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right,” Diaz said. 小题1:When a teenage boy approached him with a knife, Diaz was on his way ________.A.to the subway station. | B.to his workplace. | C.to have a meal. | D.to see a drama. | 小题2:The young man felt surprised when Diaz ________.A.stepped off the subway platform | B.passed the wallet over without objection | C.called him to wait for a moment | D.invited him to have dinner together | 小题3:The underlined part “take Diaz up on”can be replaced by “________”.A.follow | B.understand | C.check | D.accept | 小题4:The teenager gave the wallet back to Diaz maybe because _________.A.Diaz was so popular with people in the restaurant | B.he began to realize people should be nice to others | C.Diaz had to pay for the meal they had together | D.he had been given a $20 bill to take with him | 小题5:Diaz possibly felt _________ during the whole night.A.relaxed and happy | B.worried and helpless | C.angry and scared | D.surprised and anxious |

When at some moment I lose the in conversation with you, do not become annoyed, as the most important thing is not my but surely to be with you and to you listening to me. When my legs do not allow me to walk, give me your hand, the same way I when you gave your first steps. And when someday I say I do not want to live any more and that I want to die, do not get angry. Try to understand that my age is not lived but . Some day you will discover that, my mistakes, I always wanted the thing for you and tried to prepare the way for you. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and . I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you. I love you, son! Your father
