But I never really liked being on the water, the way my father did. I liked being the water, moving through it, it all around me. I was not a strong , or one who learned to swim early, for I had my . But I loved being in the swimming pool close to my fathers’ office and those summer days with my father, who come by on a break. I needed him to see what I could do. My father would stand there in his suit, the person not in swimsuit.

After swimming, I would go his office and sit on the wooden chair in front of his big desk, where he let me anything I found in his top desk drawer. Sometimes, if I was left alone at his desk he worked in the lab, an assistant or a student might come in and tell me perhaps I shouldn’t be playing with his . But my father always and said easily, “Oh, no, it’s .” Sometimes he handed me coins and told me to get an ice cream...

I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.

Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously(认真地) about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.

Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.

1.The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ____________ .

A. she had not brought a pen with her

B. she had lost her own on her way to school

C. there was something wrong with her own

D. her own had been taken away by someone

2.The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was(were) ____________ .

C. seriousness D. all of the above

3.The boy knew everything ____________ .

A. the moment he was asked to stay behind

B. when the teacher started talking about honesty

C. only some time later

If you find that your teacher is unfair to you, think about what is happening. Try to find out whether your teacher really dislikes you, or whether something else is going on. Here are some questions to ask yourself:

1. Ask your classmates if they are having trouble with the teacher, too. If they say yes, perhaps your teacher is to blame.

Are you working up to your ability? Maybe you got a C in your last test, and your teacher told you that you could do better. And the kid sitting beside you got a C, too. 2. Isn’t this unfair? Well, it could be that your teacher knows that you could do better if you put more effort into it. 3. .

4. There’s nothing wrong with being sensitive (敏感的) ,but if you react to criticism quite differently from others, this could be a reason why you think your teacher doesn’t like you.

Does your teacher seem to act unfairly all the time, or just once in a while? Think about the harsh (苛刻的) things your teacher has done to you. Are these things happening every day, or just once or twice a month? If your teacher really hates you, you would probably be picked on all the time. 5. .

A. Are you the only person being treated badly, or is your teacher rough on the whole class?

B. Are you getting along well with your classmates?

C. Are you more sensitive than other students?

D. Are you interested in your lessons?

E. If your teacher has acted unfairly only a few times, then there’s probably something else going on.

F. Teachers often grade students by different standards.

G. But the teacher didn’t say anything to him!
