When I met Mr Jim Lemon I was a seventeen-year-old freshman at Houston's Jackson Junior High.The chances of my finishing high school were
36 . I was a troubled teenage.
Mr Lemon taught American history and was quite
37 from the other teachers I had known. Not only was he
38 , but also he was a great teacher. He pushed and never tolerated the mediocrity(平庸) that had become my standard.
On the occasion of our first semester report cards, Mr Lemon
39 me aside and asked how it was possible that I was a B student in his class and a C student in the
40 of my classes. I passionately told him about my
41 parents, the local gangs, the drugs, the fights, the police---all of the evils I had been
42 to. It was then that Mr Lemon
43 explained that the only person
44 for my situation was me. And the only person with the
45 to change my situation was me. He
46 me that I was failing not because I was a failure. He inspired me to become a better student and he
47 my life.
Ten years later I was preparing to graduate from a university when I spoke to him again .
48 I did get him on the phone, I told him that I had been saving money so that I could invite him to come to Hawaii at my
49 to be a part of my graduation.
I'll never forget his
50 . He said,"Who is this again?" I was just one of hundreds of the students whose life he changed
51 he had no idea of his influence.
Mr Lemon never came to my graduation, but his
52 taught me another valuable lesson. His final lesson for me was that we will never know or understand the
53 we have on other people's lives. He taught me that we all have the
54 to effect people's lives for the
55 ... Or for the worse.
