Unit 3 Period 3 主题阅读 分层练习 阅读单选 I was seventeen years old now and I just came to Houston’s Jackson Junior High. It seemed that I would have trouble finishing high school because I was a problem teenager. However, one person came into my life quietly and then totally changed everything. The first year in my school, Mr. Lemon taught me American history. He was quite different from the other teachers I had known. But I had to say that he was really a great teacher. One day, Mr. Lemon called me aside and asked why I was a B student in his class but a C student in other classes. I told him about my divorced (离婚的) parents, the bad kids around, the drugs, the fights, the police—all of the evil things I had experienced. Then, Mr. Lemon patiently explained that the only person responsible for my future was me. And the only person with the possibility to change my situation was me. He told me that I failed not because I was a failure. He encouraged me to become a better student. Ten years later, I was preparing to graduate from a university. The first person coming to my mind was him. So I tried to reach him and wanted to tell him that I really wished him to come to Hawaii and witness (见证) this important moment together with me. I’ll never forget his reply. He said. “Who is this again?” At that moment, I came to realize that I was just one of hundreds of the students he helped. But he had no idea of his influence (影响). Mr. Lemon never came to my graduation, but it taught me another valuable lesson. His final lesson for me was that we will never know or understand the influence we have on other people’s lives. And he also taught me we all have the chance to influence people’s life, for the better…or for the worse. 1．What can we know from the first paragraph?
