My father was a foreman of a sugar-cane plantation in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. My first job was to drive the oxen（牛） that ploughed the cane fields. I would walk behind an ox, guiding him with a broomstick. For $ 1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks. It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons. Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could. I’ve never been late for any job since. I also learned about being respectful and faithful to the people you work for. More important, I earned my pay; it never entered my mind to say I was sick just because I didn’t want to work.

I was only six years old, but I was doing a man’s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $ 18 a week. Our home was a three-room wood shack with a dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem(自尊心), one of the most important things a person can have.

When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed, so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never missed one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle.

The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb(番石榴树枝) and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And

finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity. I learned working in the field — except now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick.

STREAMWOOD, Ill．—For years, attendance was small at Tefft Middle School’s yearly parent-teacher conferences, but the principal did not blame families for their poor response．Instead, she blamed the poor way the conferences were conducted．

“Five years ago, the most important person—the student—was left out of the parent-teacher conference,” Tefft’s principal, Lavonne Smiley, said．“The old conferences were such a negative thing, so we turned it around,” allowing students not only to attend but also to lead the gatherings instead of anxiously awaiting their parents’ return home with the teacher’s opinion

on their classroom performance．

Recently, 525 parents attended parent-teacher-student conferences, Ms．Smiley said, compared with 75 parents in 2003．No appointments were needed, and everyone was welcome at the conferences this year, spread over two days that school officials called a Celebration of Learning．

“I think we’re learning that every school has its own DNA, and there is not a prescription for conferences that works for every school,” Ms．Kinney said．“There is such an increasingly diverse population at our nation’s schools, the one-size-fits-all model conference just doesn’t work anymore．”

At some schools, not only are students on hand for conferences, but their siblings are also welcome, as are grandparents, aunts and uncles, even family friends．

When Mark Heller accepted a job as an assistant principal at the middle school in his hometown of Plano, Ill．, he discovered that the community had changed a lot in the eight years he had been a teacher in Iowa．The population had nearly doubled to 10,000 residents, and 37 percent of the students at Plano Middle School were now from low-income families．

The traditional parent-teacher conferences without a student present are always available by appointment, and sometimes necessary, for example, to discuss a private matter concerning a non-custodial （无监护权的） parent, a family crisis the child is unaware of or a special education diagnosis．

Still, Mr．Heller is convinced that a true dialogue concerning a student’s academic progress is impossible without both the child and the parent engaged and present, and with the teacher on hand to share impressions and answer any questions the parents have about homework, standardized test scores, behavior and other issues．

“At the student-led conferences, our children are learning to be organized and capable adults someday,” Ms．Issa said．“When I was growing up, my parents went to my conference, and I waited at home, scared they would come back with some concerns．With this new kind of conference, there are no secrets．My daughter is learning that she is responsible for her own success．” 17．What is mainly talked about in this text?

A．The change of population in Mr．Heller’s hometown． B．The way the parent-teacher conferences are conducted． C．The people who take part in parent-teacher conferences． D．The percentage of attendants to parent-teacher conferences．

18．What was the population in Plano, Ill．when Mr．Heller became a teacher in Iowa eight years

before?

A．3,700

B．20,000

C．10,000

D．5,000

19．The number of parents who attended parent-teacher-student conferences recently was ______

times more than that in 2003．

A．five

B．six

C．seven

D．eight

20．What does Ms．Kinney mean by saying “every school has its own DNA’?

A．Every school is unique and different． B．One model fits all school conferences． C．All prescriptions do not work well． D．The population at schools is diverse．
