So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself. But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning. We need every one of you to develop your talents and your skills so that you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems. If you quit on school—youre not just quitting on yourself, youre quitting on your country. No ones written your destiny（命运）for you, because you write your own destiny. You make your own future. Thats why today Im calling on each of you to set your own goals for your education and do everything you can to meet them. Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class, or spending some time reading a book. But whatever you decide to do, I want you to commit to it. I want you to really work at it. I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star. No ones born being good at all things. You become good at things through hard work. Youre not a good athlete the first time you play a new sport. You dont hit every note the first time you sing a song. Youve got to practice. 1.What can we learn from the first paragraph? A．The writers home was very rich. B．The writers mother was a teacher.
