Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(玉林高一期中)It was the summer of 2005, in the small town of Plano, Texas. Our family was new to the town, and we knew no one. This was our third move since leaving eastern Ohio three years before. I wasn’t into sports and I was out of most social dealings of a small-town seventh grader, and thus had to prove myself over and over.
But things changed in my third period on the second day. I didn’t know Mom had signed me up for a choir(合唱团), but it was OK because I liked music. Our teacher, Richard J.Winters, was also new to the town and to teaching. He was in his 40s, just starting his choir directing career.
He was a former soldier, and I immediately recognized he loved both kids and music. On our first day, he told us what he wanted for us and from us. We each took turns in making music beside the piano. I was nervous to sing in front of the class, but I did it well. When all the students finished singing, he declared, “You are going to be a great choir!” Through many competitions, our choir proved not just good, but among the best in Texas.
Mr.Winters encouraged us to take part in many competitions and to be proud of our musical talents. He allowed us to be human and make mistakes. “If you are going to make a mistake, make it a good one,” he once said. With his encouragement, I found my home and my passion: music.
He was like a father to us in so many ways. With his encouragement, I gained the confidence to follow my careers, as a passionate singer and songwriter in the studio. When we had a gathering for Mr.Winters, “his” kids came from around the world to honor him. We told him what an impact he had had on each of us. Mr.Winters, you taught us how to be champions.
