阅读理解

阅读下列短文，掌握其大意，然后从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项。

　　Both my parents came from towns in Mexico. I was born in El Paso, Texas, and when I was four, my family moved to a housing project in East Los Angeles.

　　Even though we struggled to make ends meet, my parents told to me and my four brothers and sisters how fortunate we were to live in a great country with limitless opportunities. They filled us with the concepts of family, faith and patriotism(爱国主义).

　　I got my first real job when I was ten. My dad, Benjamin, injured his back working in a cardboard-box factory and was retrained as a hairstylist. He rented space in a little strip mall (狭小的购物街)and gave his shop the fancy name of Mr Ben's Coinffure.

　　The owner of the shopping center gave Dad a discount(打折) on his rent for cleaning the parking lot three nights a week, which meant getting up at 3 a.m. To pick up rubbish, Dad used a little machine that looked like a lawn mower(割草机). Mom and I emptied rubbish cans and picked up litter(乱扔的杂物) by hand. It took two to three hours to clean the lot. I'd sleep in the ear on the way home.

　　I did this for two years, but the lessons I learned have lasted a lifetime. I acquired discipline and a strong work ethic (行为准则), and learned at an early age the importance of balancing life's competing interests--in my case, school, homework and job. This really helped during high school, when I worked 40 hours a week cooking burgers at a fast-food joint(店铺) while taking a full load of college-pre courses.

　　The hard work paid off. I attended the U. S. Military Academy and went on to receive graduate degrees in law and business from Harvard. Later, I jointed a big Los Angeles law firm and was elected to the California State Assembly. In these jobs and in everything else I've done, I have never forgotten those nights in the parking lot. The experience taught me that there is dignity(尊严) in all work and that if people are working to provide for themselves and their families, that is something we should honor.
