I finally decided to the news to my mom that I was leaving the team. My mom may have looked like a tiny and quiet lady but on my words, she said, “Remember, ‘A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.’ Your mother didn’t raise , so think about yourself in a way and see yourself as a winner!” So I worked harder than ever at getting in better shape, my shot(投球) accuracy and changing my .
Once in a match, we our first game badly. What’s worse, one of our best players got hurt. I was sitting at my place, at the end of the bench, when the coach came over and told me I was going . I was nervous, excited and terrified all at the same time.
The opposing team was fast and I had to admit I was a little . But my mom’s words out in my head like a church bell. Instead of being afraid, I was “pumped” and I very quickly found that all my work was paying off. I was as fast a skater as anyone else on the ice, and I seemed to get the to score. The crowd went quiet. All the time I spent on the ice when everyone had
gone home had me for this moment.
Won! I won!
The lesson I learned from my mom’s has stayed with me over the years. I hear them whenever I am faced with a challenge, or whenever I myself.

Thirteen years later, he’s getting a lot of it. He’s on a five-month road trip across America-not sightseeing, but volunteering.
The University City resident has spent time at an animal reserve in Utah, a women’s shelter in St. Louis, a soup kitchen in New York, a retirement home in Tucson. This week he’s in Los Angeles, at a program that supports disabled youth.
“I just like helping people and feeling that something I do is making a difference,” he said. He resists the idea that his “Do Good Adventure” is all that unusual. It bothers him that the media often describes young people as lazy, self-centered and materialistic. So he sees his trip as a chance to make a statement, too. “About 55 percent of teens do volunteer work, higher than the rate of adults,” he said, according to a 2002 study. “Not everybody knows that.”
Of course, some teens do volunteer work because it looks impressive on their college applications. Lyons said he mentioned his trip on his submissions. But charity work is a habit with him. Even before the cross country trip, he was volunteering abut 200 hours a year at various places. He’s made sandwiches for homeless families in Washington D.C.. He’s taught math to fifth-graders in Cuernavaca, Mexico.
He gets some of that drive from his mother, Leslye Lyons, who has been involved in nonprofits for much of her life. She was there when her son “read” to the preschoolers-a memory of hers “that will never go away.”

A.indicate Russell Lyons is working as a volunteer |

D.adults prefer to be volunteers |
A.it is necessary for college applications |
B.he ought to keep his promise to Momit |
C.he likes the feeling of being praised |

Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional squeeze (紧握) of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma (昏迷).
I left for a week for a vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was gone. I didn’t have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year.
Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I realized who it was, my eyes filled with tears. He was alive! I got up the nerve to ask him if he was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an uncertain look on his face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking to him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears, and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever received.
He began to tell me how, as he lay there comatose (昏睡的), he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel(天使), who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had kept him alive. Then he told me about his life. We exchanged a hug, said our good-byes and went our separate ways.
Although I haven’t seen him since, he fills my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a difference between his life and his death. As importantly, he has made a great difference in my life. I will never forget him and what he did for me: He made me an angel.

I grew up with a stutter, really afraid of trying to get through simple sentences—knowing that I would then, or later, be laughed at. I still remember the reading when I was in 7th grade at St. Helena’s: “Sir Walter Raleigh was a gentlemen…” I remember reciting, “Sir Walter Raleigh was a gentlemen.” The school teacher said, “Master B-B-B-Biden! What’s that word?” She wanted me to say gentlemen. But by then, I had learned to put my sentences into bite-size pieces and I was reading it: “gentle”|breath|“man”.
Ninety-nine percent of the time, the teachers were great. I never had professional treatment but a couple of teachers taught me to put a regular rise and fall in my tone of speaking, and that’s why I spent so much time reading poetry. But even in my small, boys’ prep school, I got nailed in my class with the nickname Joe Stutterer. You get so desperate, you’re so embarrassed. I actually went and stood by the side of my house once, with a small round stone in my mouth, and tried to talk. Jill always thought I was kidding until she saw the movie and saw King George did the same thing.
King George relied on the support his wife and the help of Lionel Longue, who, in describing working with other stutterers, said, “My job was to give them confidence in their voices and let them know that a friend was listening.” I was lucky enough to have more than a couple of Lionels in my life. Nobody in my family ever—ever—made fun of me or tried to finish my sentences. My mother would say, “Joey, you cannot let stuttering define you.” And because of her and others, I made sure it didn’t.
Through hard work and determination, I beat my stutter in high school. I even spoke briefly at my graduation ceremony in 1961—the most difficult speech of my life. My fight against shyness and embarrassment at my early age has developed my ability to understand others’ feelings as Vice President of the country in public life. I still mark up all of my speeches the say way Firth’s character does in the movie, pencil-marking every line to remind myself to stop, to breathe, to pause—to beat back my stuttering as best as I can. I don’t stutter anymore, and most people who know me only late in my life are shocked that I ever did.
By capturing exactly how a stutter feels, The King’s Speech has shown millions of people how much courage it takes for a stutterer to stand up and speak. Equally important, it has shown millions who suffer from the pain that it can be overcome, we are not alone, and with the support of those around us, our deepest fears can be conquered.
小题1:The writer whispered to his wife, “A stutterer wrote this screenplay”, because __________.
A.he desired to release his secret to his wife |
B.he was reminded how it was as a stutterer on such occasions |
C.he thought Colin Firth had a wonderful performance in the film |
D.he wanted to make his wife realize why the film was so popular |
A.The writer would have a good fortune to get help from many people. |
B.The writer should realize he had to stand up from his pain and defeat it |
C.The writer could get enough confidence under his mother’s help |
D.The writer must be happy that everyone in his family did not laugh at him. |
A.Whatever pain and fear we have, we can defeat them if we try hard. |
B.The similar stories of the writer and King George VI gains great admiration. |
C.The suffer we had at our early age will have a heavy influence on our future life. |
D.Stuttering is such a pain for children that we should give help and encourage them. |
