第一節(jié) 閱讀理解
A
My first child was born in 1986 and two and a half years later, I had my daughter. All I ever did from then on was taking care of kids and our home. Throughout those early years, whenever I went somewhere and was around other adults, I would be asked what I did. Far too many people had the same reaction when I told them I was a stay-at-home mom. It was a very annoying "Oh, you really don't do anything" type of response. I worked hard as a mom and I took my "job" very seriously! Raising children is doing something and is extremely important.
So that's when I decided to find a way to deal with these ignorant people and to boost my self-esteem at the same time. On many of the social occasions, some of the "professional" women would give me their business card as if to show me that they actually did something and had some important title. I decided to give myself a very impressive, important-sounding title and then make up a business card to hand out.
I thought about what I actually did as a mom over the next few days. I took special care to make sure I was giving my children the best care, instruction and information I possibly could. It was my job to teach my kids: how to speak, how to eat, how to dress, how to get along with others, and so on. I specialized in the academic, social and emotional development of human beings — my kids! After reading my brief overview of my own job, I came up with my new impressive title: Human Development Specialist.
At every opportunity, I handed out my card. 99.99% of the time, people were obviously impressed! It really made me feel better. Most people made a guess at what a "Human Development Specialist" is or does, and I just let them think whatever they wanted to.
