请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

My mother has always instilled in me the importance of education. Education is essential. It will help me get accepted to college if I perform well academically and advance my opportunities for success in the future. Most jobs now require at least a high school diploma, and for many jobs, a college degree is preferred. It is important that all students have excellent educators in their life to help them achieve and have the opportunity to go to college, get a job, support themselves and their family, and impact the community.

As we celebrate and honor all teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week, I’ve reflected on the impact my teachers have had, and will continue to have, in my life. From Mr. Bowker, who challenged me in math, to Mr. Bernsteen, my health teacher who taught me the value of hard work, my teachers have helped shape the student I am today. But one of the teachers who left a lasting impression on me was my summer school teacher, Mr. Davis, who impacted me beyond the classroom. He found time to connect with me on a personal level and talk to me after class. I felt like Mr. Davis cared about my academic success and was committed to setting an example of what’s possible.

Mr. Davis could relate to what it was like to be a rising ninth-grade black male in today’s society. He taught me how to speak up confidently and share my ideas with others. He told me that I was brilliant and that when I spoke, the world should listen. And when I would put my hand down because I was unsure of my answer, Mr. Davis would immediately say, “No guts, no glory.” He never made me feel inadequate; he encouraged me to always pursue knowledge because he, too, was learning every day. Mr. Davis helped me navigate the challenges and take advantage of the opportunities.

I think having more black male teachers like Mr. Davis in the classroom could increase student success. They would share the background and experiences of many of their students and help build long-lasting teacher/student relationships. But, unfortunately, the likelihood that students of color in Nevada will have a teacher that looks like them is one of the lowest in the country.

As the student population becomes more ethnically diverse, teachers in Nevada still are predominantly white. According to a 2012 Education Week report, in the Clark County School District, nearly 70 percent of students identified as students of color, but 76 percent of teachers were white. The numbers for black male teachers are more discouraging. Just 2 percent of teachers nationwide are black men.

But you can help change the numbers. Whether you decide to study education in college or graduate school, or apply to programs in Las Vegas such as Teach For America, I hope more black males will consider teaching as a career.

My peers and I need more examples of excellence and success in classrooms—examples who look like us. You can be the model to impact our life and push us to achieve. You can ensure that, when we look to the front of the room, we can see a little bit of ourselves reflected back.

1.Mr. Davis left the author with a very deep impression mainly because he ________.

A. was extremely knowledgeable and hard-working

B. was a role model to teach hearts and change minds

C. spent much time helping the author with his homework

D. kept in close touch with the author even after graduation

2.The underlined word “guts” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.

A. bravery B. connection

C. opportunity D. qualification

3. By writing the passage, the author intends to ________.

A. show students’ love for their teachers

B. appeal to more black males to be teachers

C. express sympathy for students of color

D. advertise for black male teachers

Many years ago, I went through a tough time．One afternoon, I picked my girls up．It was late when we returned home．I went to unlock the door and found my key wouldn’t go in．I kept trying while my daughter went to get a flashlight．When she returned with it we found somehow the lock had been “stuffed” with sunflower seed shells．Thinking that one of the neighborhood children had been up to no good, I really didn’t give it much consideration．

I found all windows were locked up tight．So I returned to the back door．Oh my God, I will never forget the shock of that moment．The house was empty！Other than a few things remaining on the back porch, everything was gone！Then I heard a car pull into the driveway and found two policemen walking up．They inquired why I had broken into the house．They then asked me for proof that I lived at that address, so I asked them to wait a minute while I went to get my rent receipt and identification from inside the house．I explained the matter to them and showed them the door lock．

At this point they were not buying any of my story．I could tell from their actions and tone of voice that they thought I was breaking into an empty house for somewhere to sleep．

I asked a neighbor for the phone number of house owner and the officer made a call．The owner was quite shocked to hear my story．She said that my roommate had been going through an eviction（驱逐）process with the court when I moved in with her and had lost the case．She had been ordered to move by 10 am on that date．The court order had been issued the same day I had paid her 1/2 of the rent and a deposit of $300,000．

The owner was very kind and understanding but there was nothing she could do．The house had been rented already and the people were to move in the following weekend．

The officers let me go and I went to gather my girls into the car．They were both exhausted and old．Also very frightened, because they thought their mamma was going to jail．I had to pull over because the tears took control．I couldn’t believe it！Everything we owned was gone, I had used up all our money moving in and paying my “friend” our share of costs．I knew very few people in town, as we had just moved there recently．

I went to sit back in the car with the girls, I talked to the girls, explaining our situation to them so that they wouldn’t be afraid．During this time there was a “street person” with a bag, looking in the garbage for cans, bottles, and anything that might bring him some cash．But I didn’t pay much attention to him．I decided to get the girls something to eat for breakfast．We grabbed some bread, and chips and returned for a “picnic”．When we got there, I noticed that the man was not alone．He was with a small group of others like him and they were passing a hat amongst themselves．

I was busy setting up our little “picnic” when I heard a voice saying, “MaAm, please excuse… but…well…I overheard the situation you are in, and well… I and the fellows took up a collection for you and your little girls．It’s not very much, but maybe it’ll help a little．” I looked up at this man---dirty, needing a shave ----and saw the face of an angel．I started crying．The man tried to hand me $30．I folded his hand back over the money and just hugged him as tight as I could．I told him, “Thank you for your more than generous offer, but we are going to be just fine．” He didn’t believe me at first, but I convinced him that it was okay．

Later that afternoon I went to the market and bought the making for a barbecue and off to that little park．It didn’t take us very long to find those gentlemen and invite them to join us for lunch．I had a wonderful afternoon that day, sitting there with those old guys, singing songs．They had some of the most entertaining stories and they shared the dreams they once had．They shared themselves… from the heart．

Today my father and I drove to visit Li Wei, whom we had been supporting for two years．We set off early in the morning, and after a two-hour drive, we arrived in his home．At that moment, he was working in the garden while his grandpa was sitting in the sun．They were excited to see us and gave us warm welcome．We gave Li Wei a schoolbag and some books as well．Grateful and moved, and he showed us his excellent schoolwork, which impressed us greatly．We were so happy that we didn’t realize it was time to leave．They saw me off at the village entrance and we waved goodbye to them.

When I got the driving license last summer, Mom and I took our first trip around an empty parking lot. Then I found that my mother was not the best teacher for me. It wasn't that she shouted, or told me that I was doing poorly. As you can imagine, my mother's "helpful instructions" only managed to make me more nervous.

Since I could no longer practice with her, the job was placed in the hands of my father. The idea of learning from Dad was not one that thrilled me. I loved him dearly, but I just did not see Dad as someone I could be comfortable learning from. He almost never talked. We shared a typical father-daughter relationship. He'd ask how school was, and I'd say it was fine. Unfortunately, that was the most of our conversations. Spending hours alone with someone who might as well have been a stranger really scared me.

As we got into the car that first time, I was not surprised at what happened. Dad and I drove around, saying almost nothing, aside from a few instructions on how to turn. As my lessons went on, however, things began to change. Dad would turn the radio up so I could fully appreciate his favorite Stones music. And he actually began talking. I was soon hearing about past failed dates, "basic body" gym class, and other tales from his past, including some of his first meeting with Mom.

Dad’s sudden chattiness was shocking until I thought about why he was telling me so much in the car. In all the years that I had wondered why my father never spoke that much, I had never stopped to consider that it was because I had never bothered to listen. Homework, friends, and even TV had all called me away from him, and, consequently, I never thought my quiet father had anything to say.

Since I began driving with him, my driving skill has greatly increased. More important, though, is that my knowledge of who my father is has also increased. Just living with him wasn't enough—it took driving with him for me to get to know someone who was a mystery.
