English was always my favorite subject. In my freshman year of high school, I could write a killer composition. In my junior year, my 1 allowed me to give spelling tests to the class. I had wonderful 2 of this year. Mrs. Alexander 3 me to sit at her desk and take over the class when she had to leave the room. Only my senior English class was 4 , as we had a teacher right out of college who expected college-level work. Every student received a “C” or “D” grade the first quarter. 5 English was still my subject. I graduated from high school, 6 early and had children. 7 about my English, I often helped my kids with their English homework. And I 8 long articles and beautiful poetry for a newspaper. Fifteen years later, I went to college, and because I had been an “A” student, I 9 an “A” student. I lived up to my own expectations. Yesterday, I 10 my high school report cards when I was reading old papers. That bundle (捆) of report cards 11 back the old days. I remembered sitting in my advisor’s office, explaining that I had always been excellent at English and complaining that I did not 12 a “D” from that inexperienced teacher of my senior year. The advisor was 13 but unable to change a grade. My old 14 cards showed something else too. I wanted to tear them up or 15 them. I was not an “A” student in high school English! Somehow, I had convinced myself of this, when the grades clearly reflected an 16 student with an occasional “A” or “B”, but mostly “C”s. Had I lived up to those 17 and define (定义) myself according to those letters, I would have never confidently 18 my writing career. Had I believed in my early grades instead of myself, I would have allowed my fear of 19 to defeat my enthusiasm and damage my creativity. 20 , I regarded my younger self as an “A” English student, except for that undeserved “D”.
