5.Papa,as a son of a dirt-poor farmer,left school early and went to work in a factory,for education was for the rich then.So,the world became his school.With great interest,he read everything he could lay his hands on,listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown."There's so much to learn,"he'd say."Though we're born stupid,only the stupid remain that way."He was determined that none of his children would be denied (拒绝) an education.
Thus,Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day.Though,as children,we thought this was crazy,it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request.And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned.We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant,it was never taken lightly.Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment,always to the point.
Then came the moment-the time to share the day's new learning.
Papa,at the head of the table,would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine,ready to listen.
"Felice,"he'd say,"tell me what you learned today."
"I learned that the population of Nepal is…"
Silence.
Papa was thinking about what was said,as if the salvation(拯救) of the world would depend upon it."The population of Nepal.Hmm.Well…"he'd say."Get the map; let's see where Nepal is."And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.
This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn.Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.
As children,we thought very little about these educational wonders.Our family,however,was growing together,sharing experiences and participating in one another's education.And by looking at us,listening to us,respecting our input,affirming(肯定) our value,giving us a sense of dignity,Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.
Later during my training as a future teacher/1studied with some of the most famous educators.They were imparting(传授) what Papa had known all along-the value of continual learning.His technique has served me well all my life.Not a single day has been wasted,though I can never tell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.

A.The author's father was born in a worker's family.

10.Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear.Children know this very well.Fred Epstein,in his book If I Make It to Five,tells a story he heard from one of friends about Tom,a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone.He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.
Tom loved to pretend,and he particularly loved to play superheroes.Dr.Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.
The day before his third trip to the operating room,Tom was terribly afraid."Maybe I could go as Superman,"he whispered to his mom.Hearing this,the mother hesitated for a while.She had avoided buying the expensive costume (戏装),but finally she agreed.
The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman,showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way.And Tom,with the strength of his fantasy,successfully made it through the operation.
The power of imagination need not be reserved for children only.we all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible,to go through those things that seem impossible,and to achieve what we never believed we could.Just as Dr.Epstein puts it,"If you can dream it,you can do it."
It doesn't mean that you should dress as a superhero for your next job interview.But,next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible,imagine what it would take to overcome it.Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first.So,let your imagination run wild,and dare to dream.
