I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.I had an English teacher, Mr.Creech, who knew I couldnt read. In one of my first lessons the
19、teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldnt happen again. Later that day, Mr.Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to hel

Finally those who kept their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said t
