Well, I had to give it to her. She was determined. I watched her through those junior high years and into high school. Every week, she led the varsity team to victory. One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting on the grass, head cradled in her arms. I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass beside her. Quietly I asked what was wrong. "Oh, nothing," came a soft reply. "I'm just too short." The coach told her that at "5'5" she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team, much less offered a scholarship, so she should stop dreaming about college.
嘿,我真服了她——她是個(gè)有決心的人。我看著她這些年從初中升到高中。每個(gè)星期,由她帶領(lǐng)的學(xué)校籃球隊(duì)都能夠獲勝。 在她讀高中的某一天,我看見(jiàn)她坐在草地上,頭埋在臂彎里。因此,我穿過(guò)街道,坐到她旁邊的清涼的草地上,輕輕地問(wèn)她發(fā)生了什么事。她輕聲回答:“哦,沒(méi)什么,只是我太矮了。”原來(lái)籃球教練告訴她,以她五英尺五英寸的身材,幾乎是沒(méi)有機(jī)會(huì)到一流的球隊(duì)去打球的,更不用說(shuō)會(huì)獲得獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金了,所以她應(yīng)該放棄想上大學(xué)的夢(mèng)想。
