THE MENTALIST, GERRY MCCAMBRIDGE B It was the men?s figure skating final of the Winter Olympics when I was 16. I lay on our living room floor excitedly watching the battle between the Brains: American Brain Boitano facing Brian Orser in Canada. Both of them had been world champions. Both of them deserved to win. As a Northern Californian, I was for my fellow countryman. He also grew up in Northern California. We?d skated on the same ice. Brain performed successfully. The champion! I jumped in the air when his score went up. But what happened next is what I?ll never fet. Brain sat in front of the camera, surrounded by a group of journalists. Brain was talking about his career and his medal, talking to the whole world. A terrible sinking feeling went through me. I could never be in the Olympics, I thought. I loved skating because I could express myself with my jumps and dances better than words. What if journalists asked me questions like they asked Brain? I?d freeze up like the ice beneath my skates! And yet, there was so much I would love to say, about my family and all the support they?d given me and about following my dream of being a skating champion. I worked very hard the next few years on the ice and especially off. After journalists talked to me and although my heart pounded every time I spoke to them, I got to know them. And they got to know me. Slowly I learned that the best approach was simply to be myself, to be honest and gracious and do my best, just like on the ice, to answer their questions. So when my big moment came four years after Brain?s, I was ready. Remember: when you do the thing you fear most, you put an end to fear. 24. What information can we get from the first paragraph? A.
