【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 Did you know that Albert Einstein could not speak until he was four years old, and could not read until he was seven? His parents and teachers worried about his mental ability. Beethoven39。s music teacher said about him, As a poser (作曲家) he is hopeless. What if this young boy had believed it? When Thomas Edison was a young boy, his teachers said he was so stupid that he could never learn anything. He once said, I remember I used to never be able to get along at school. I was always at the foot of my class ... My father thought I was stupid, and I almost decided that I was a stupid person. What if young Thomas had believed what they said about him? When the sculptor (雕刻家) Auguste Rodin was young, he had difficulty learning to read and write. Today, we may say he had a learning disability. His father said of him, I have an idiot (白癡) for a son. His uncle agreed. He39。s uneducable, he said. What if Rodin had doubted his ability? Walt Disney was once fired by a newspaper editor because he was thought to have no good ideas. Enrico Caruso was told by one music teacher, You can39。t sing. You have no voice at all. And an editor told Louisa May Alcott that she was unable to write anything that would have popular appeal. What if these people had listened and bee discouraged? Where would our world be without the music of Beethoven, the art of Rodin or the ideas of Albert Einstein and Walt Disney? As Oscar Levant once said, It39。s not what you are but what you don39。t bee that hurts. You have great potential. When you believe in all you can be, rather than all you cannot bee, you will find your place on earth.（1）How many successful people are mentioned as examples in the passage?

That39。s a question many parents are asking in the wake of the college cheating scandal(丑聞)involving 38 wealthy parents around the country, including actresses Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman. Here39。s how far I went. In the fall of 2017 my husband and I lost our jobs. We had to tell our daughter, Casey, that we couldn39。t afford to send her back to school for her junior year at Fordham University. We decided the best choice for our family would be for Casey to sit out a year. We promised that we would get her back the following year. Casey decided to spend the year volunteering in South Africa On Sept 30, 2017, we put our oldest child on a plane halfway around the world. Casey worked as a tutor teaching kids math, English and music in Johannesburg. We did get Casey back in school in time. When she returned to the campus, she studied harder. She isn39。t what she used to be. Each day is marked by gratitude because she knows what it is like not to be able to get an education. I wonder why the college cheating scandal happened and I think it boils down to this: Parents want to create a fort zone for their kids. Of course, we want the best for our kids but sometimes we forget that real growth doesn39。t happen in times of fort。 those valuable lessons e when we are forced to think in ways we otherwise wouldn39。t have. While I did less for my child than these wealthy parents did in terms of means, in other ways I did more. I taught her that disappointment is a part of life and we should face it bravely rather than avoid it. My husband and I showed Casey that her strength is in her struggle. That39。s how far I went for my kid s education. And I dare say she is wiser and better off for it.（1）What do the parents involved in the college cheating scandal have in mon?
