海梅埃斯卡兰特
海梅埃斯卡兰特是一位来自玻利维亚的教师。他于1963年来到洛杉矶。那时，他33岁，几乎一点英语都不会讲。
对埃斯卡兰特来说，在美国的生活是艰苦的。在加利福尼亚他不能做老师，他不得不再次去读大学。这花了他许多年，但他坚持下来了。为了在学习的同时养家糊口，他在餐厅打工。最终，在43岁时，他开始在洛杉矶的加菲尔德高中工作。这所学校名声很坏，有很多小流氓，学生学习也不好。很快，埃斯卡兰特改变了这一切。
埃斯卡兰特与他的学生们一起努力。他教他们数学，他用他自己的方法，这些方法很灵。学生们很喜欢学习数学。1982年，他学生中的十四位通过了高等数学的考试。没有人相信这一切。人们说这些学生一定作弊了。学生们要证明自己没有作弊，他们又重新参加了考试，他们又通过了。这样的事在像加菲尔德这样的学校简直是奇迹！这些都是海梅埃斯卡兰特的功劳。
每年埃斯卡兰特都培养出顶尖的学生。人们把他当作美国最好的老师之一，甚至有一部电影和一本书讲述了埃斯卡兰特的故事。

15 A Man of Word and Not Deeds
A man of words and not of deeds
Is like a garden full of weeds.
And when the weeds begin to grow,
It's like a garden full of sonw.
And when the snow begins to fall,
It's like a bird upon the wall.
And when the bird away does fly,
It's like an eagle in the sky.
And when the sky begins to roar,
It's like a lion at the door.
And when the door begins to crack,
It's like a stick across your back,
And when your back begins to smart,
It's like a penknife in your heart.
And when your heart begins to bleed,
You're dead, and dead, and dead indeed.
deed 行为
weed 杂草
eagle 鹰
crack 爆裂，破裂
smart 刺痛
penknife 铅笔刀
bleed 流血
一个只说不做的人
一个只说不做的人，
就像是长满杂草的花园。
当杂草开始生长，
它就像是个被雪覆盖的花园。
当雪花开始纷飞，
它就像一只墙上的鸟。
当鸟飞走了，
它就像天空中的鹰。
当天空开始咆哮，
它就像门口的狮子。
当门开始破裂，
它就像横穿你脊背的木棍。
当你的背开始刺痛，
它就像刺入你心中的铅笔刀。
当你的心开始流血，
你就真正地死亡，死亡，死亡。
Learning English in a New Environment
I was a little shy about talking to people when I first arrived in America,but I had a strong desire to broaden my horizons and meet new people.Once I gathered the courage to start conversations with people,I found how easy it was to make new friends.
Every day,I heard enough new English expressions to make my head spin.I found that when I was honest and asked about the meanings of unfamiliar expressions ,Americans were very helpful and took pains to explain them to me ．
Native speakers of English tend to speak very fast,and at first I was just stunned and looked at them with a dazed expression on my face.I solved that problem by asking people to speak more slowly ．
broaden 开阔，拓宽
horizon 眼界，视野
courage 勇气
spin 晕头转向
take pains to explain 煞费苦心地解释
tend to speak 倾向于说
stunned 惊愕地
dazed 茫然地
在新的环境中学习英语
第一次到美国，与人说话时我总有些害羞，但是我非常渴望能够开阔视野，结识新朋友。当我鼓起勇气开始与人交谈，我发现原来结交新朋友是多么容易的事啊。
每天耳边出现的繁多的新英语表达法把我弄得晕头转向。我发现当我诚实地向美国人询问那些不熟悉的说法的意思时，他们非常乐于助人，并煞费苦心地向我解释。
以英语为母语的人说话一般很快，一开始我只能惊愕地一脸茫然地看着他们。我让他们说得慢一些，这样我就解决了这个问题。
