My spirit sank at the thought of staring all over again. Surrounded by strange classmates,l felt like
I was in a maze (迷宫) and was sorry for myself. There were some complex feelings in my mind.
I was frightened ,nervous and lonely.
To make matters worse,I recalled my failure again and again, which put more pressure on me
than I could bear. As a result,l was always feeling down during class.

sure I can fly high.

Now those hands I once thought to be so rough were still doing things for me and my family.I frequently recalled the night my young voice complained.One night,catching Mom"s hand in hand,I blurted out how

family of seven children,she often felt like she had "seven fathers",because her six brothers,as well as her
father,tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant,she retreated(躲避) into books. Despite her love of reading,she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate.
In high school,with the encouragement of one particular teacher,Cisneros improved her grades and
worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college,but instead of searching for a
husband,she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the university"s Writers" Workshop,however,she felt lonely-a Mexican American from a poor
neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her "creative voice."
"It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman,but I didn"t think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalance in my life,but it had everything to do with it! That"s when I decided I would write about something my
classmates couldn"t write about."
Cisneros published her first work,The House on Mango Street,when she was twentynine. The book
tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanishspeaking area in Chicago,much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in
classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then,Cisneros has published several books of poetry,a children"s book,and a shortstory collection.

C. make a lot of friends
D. develop her writing style
B. Her training in the Workshop.
