备战2022年高考英语阅读理解专项突破 考向5 人与自我之学校活动 Passage 1 （2021·河北·二模） Darrion Cockrell,who wasn't much of a student, has been named Missouri's Teacher of the Year-the state's highest honor for educators, becoming the first male since 2015 to capture the state's top award. Cockrell-the child of a drug-addicted mother and a father who was killed when he was four years old-was in and out of the childcare centers and eventually became a gang(帮派) member. In his speech, he shouted out the special people who helped to guide him down the right path when he was going off the track. He thanked his teacher Ken who provided him with life advice while he lived in a group home. "He taught me it's OK to be tough, but at the same time, it's OK to be sympathetic," Cockrell said. "He was like a father figure to me." The teacher-affectionately known as "DC"-also expressed his gratitude for the football coach that adopted him when he was in the 7th grade and helped to change his whole perspective(视角) on life. "When I changed the way I looked at things, the things around me started to change," he said. "I had a lot of struggles and hurdles, and if not for those educators, I would not be here today." Now, Cockrell hopes to make an impact on the students at Lindbergh Schools' Crestwood Elementary in St. Louis, where he's been teaching physical education since 2015. Among his many accomplishments at the school, the greatest one is his development of the “Crest-Fit”training program for teachers, students and parents. "Missouri is fortunate to have so many high-quality educators, and Darrion will be a wonderful representative as our state's Teacher of the Year," Commissioner of Education Margie Vandeven said in a statement. "He guides his students towards long-term physical and mental wellness, and the connections he has established will affect Crestwood children for years to come." 1．What was Cockrell's childhood like?
