题目内容
10.I was 17 and my job was to try to keep eight fairly active 10-,11-and 12-year-olds from killing one another or themselves.Among other activities,I would take them camping in the woods outside Dover Plains,New York.I learned that if you are going to be in the woods for a couple of days,take frosted food.You can eat them for breakfast,lunch and dinner,you don't have to cook them and they don't weigh as much as your meats and vegetables.I'll never touch another frosted food as long as I live.The camp was for low-income black lads from New York City.During the camp,I found being out in the woods with the kids was a little scary,because I suddenly realized these are actually somebody's children and I'm responsible for them.I found myself being an authority figure because I had to.
On a camping trip we stopped at a lake to put up our tents.I was the only white person in the group.We were swimming when these white kids in a motorboat began yelling racial abuses and trying to splash(泼水)us.Then I had no choice but to warn them,"If you come anywhere near these kids,we've written down the number of your boat and we're going to call the police."
They yelled more but finally left.That experience was the biggest test of responsibility I had ever faced.
When I returned to high school after that first summer,it seemed a lot less fearful than before.Plus,I had earned $375,which after trips to the camp candy store was down to eight cents'clear profit.
