2．"Oh，my god．Are you serious？"
That's a reaction I often get when people hear the laic of my childhood．
It's a story I don't often share．Growing up in a bad home，I learned to protect myself by not speaking up．I've seldom said anything about how badly I was treated and hurt as a child．
I don't talk about how my name was changed at least three times，what it was like lo live in my van （厢式货车） or how I've struggled with anxiety，depression （沮丧），and warning to kill myself．
But I learned lo sun speaking up for myself．I went on to earn two graduate degrees and I will complete my Doctor's degree this year．I've also become a widely published author．So，how did I get to where I am today？
What's helped me is surrounding myself with caring，loving people．I've learned day-to-day skills through research，trial and error，and with the help of skilled professionals．
They've taught me how to slow down，to breathe，to be thankful for what I've got．They're the ones who make my goals possible．They have also taught me to turn my past experiences into strength-to make the negatives into positives．
My hope is that sharing my story might help others to see what is possible even in the darkest of times and help others to speak out．
I don't think I'm in any way special or unique．I'm a common man，no more deserving （值得帮助的） than anyone else．But for far too long．I've been afraid that others think I'm damaged goods．I've worried about how I might be treated differently．
Pain and fear teach us to be silent．It's time for that to change．
I don't know what tomorrow might bring．But one thing I've learned is that if we can hold on and find help，if we find ways to get through the day and speak up，we'll not only survive，but become stronger than before．
Our very survival can be an inspiration all on its own．And with love of my friends．I look forward lo so much more than completing my education-I look forward to the future．

20．"The more you learn，the more you earn，"said the pop singer Cyndi Lauper as she accepted her high school diploma（证书），at the age of 35!Although Cyndi made it without a high school degree，most people don't．In the USA today，about 75% of jobs need some education or technical training further than high school．The lowest wage earners in the USA are those without high school degrees； college graduates outearn those without a college education．People with master's degrees（硕士学位）outearn those with only a bachelor （学士学位）； and the highest incomes（收入）of all are earned by people with advanced professional or academic degrees．These generalizations（普遍现象） explain why most of young Americans go to college．However，despite the averages，more diplomas don't always mean more money．Many skilled blue-collar（蓝领） workers，salespeople business executives（主管），and entrepreneurs outearn college professors and scientific researchers．And great athletes and entertainers outearn everyone else!

18．Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since．A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water．He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away．He can play，catch and hit a ball as well as his son．A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins"Twinkle，twinkle，little star"or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears．
One explanation is the law of overlearning，which can be stated as follows：Once we have learned something，additional（额外的） learning trials（尝试）increase the length（长度） of time we will remember it．
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming，bicycle riding，and playing baseball long after we have learned them．We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as"Twinkle，twinkle，little star"and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks．We not only learn but overlearn．
The multiplication tables（乘法口诀表）are an exception（例外） to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school，because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood．
The law of overlearning explains why cramming（突击学习）for an examination，though it may result in a passing grade，is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course．By cramming，a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination，but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned．A little overlearning，on the other hand，is really necessary for one's future development．

12．The author explains the law of overlearning byD．

A．Commonly accepted rules．

C．Things easily forgotten．
D．School subjects．
15．What is the author's opinion on cramming？B
A．It leads to failure in college exams．
B．It's helpful only in a limited way．
C．It's possible to result in poor memory．
D．It increases students'learning interest．
