I"m from the South Bronx. At 7, my neighborhood was the beginning and end of my universe. It was a small town to me. Everyone knew each other, so if you got into trouble in school, chances are your mom knew about it before you got home. I felt watched over and safe.But just before I turned 8, things began to change. I watched two buildings on my block burn down. I remember seeing my neighbor Pito go up and down the fire escape to get people out. Where were the firemen? Where was the truck? Somebody must have called them.That same summer, after serving two tours in Vietnam, my brother was killed in the South Bronx. He was shot above the left eye and died instantly.
People who could moved out of the neighborhood, and all I wanted to do was get out, too. I used education to get away from there and got good at avoiding the topic of where I was from. To be from the South Bronx meant that you were not a good person. It felt like a stain.After college, I didn"t want to come back to the South Bronx, but in order to afford graduate school, I had to. I was almost 30 and could only afford to live at my parents" home. It felt like a defeat, and I hated it.At the same time, the city was planning a huge waste facility here, and no one seemed to care — including many of us who lived here. They were like, "Well, it" what"s the difference?"I was very angry. It drove me to act. It moved my spirit in a way that I didn"t know was possible. And it changed my beliefs — it changed the way I felt about myself and my community. I worked hard with others who felt the same way, and together, we defeated the plan.After that, I realized it"s just as important to fight for something as it is to fight against something. So we dreamed up a new park on the site of an illegal waste dump — and after many community clean-ups, along with $3 million from the city, we have one. And it"s a glory. It was the seed from which many new plans for our community have grown.Today, the South Bronx
it"s a badge(象征) of honor for me. I believe that where I"m from helps me to really see the world. Today, when I say I"m from the South Bronx, I stand up straight. This is home, and it always will be.41.

关注我们官方微信关于跟谁学服务支持帮助中心这是个机器人猖狂的时代，请输一下验证码，证明咱是正常人~When I was 11, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. In the end, I became so angry that I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.” I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself. I brought the list back to Dad. He refused to take it.” That’s just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.” Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice. 小题1:What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint? A．He told her not to pay any attention to whatever”enemy”had said.B．He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.C．He told her to write down all that her” enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.D．He refused to take the list and have a look at it.小题2: What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?A．Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.B．She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.C．I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.D．Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.小题3: Why did her father listen to her quietly?A．Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth.B．Because he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wantedto show this by keeping silent for a while.C．Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.D．Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true.小题4: Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?A．The Best Advice I’ve Ever HadB．Not an Enemy,but the Best FriendC．My FatherD．My Childhood - 跟谁学
