四、阅读理解
I came to the United States from Africa to live with my uncle Jim in Maryland. One year later, I lost my sight because of a serious illness.
Jim told me not to go out. He worried I would get lost or hit by a car. But I was dogged. I told him I'd be careful. I believed I'd succeed（成功）. I must succeed. I must put my will into action. I dreamed of being a broadcaster（播音员）.
Then a neighbour told me that a pubic library in Washington D.C. was offering a free course, specially designed for blind people. This was an important chance for me.
But how would I map my way? I knew that the American singer Ray Charles, also blind, got around on his own without a cane（手杖）. His secret was to count steps. But this couldn't work for me. Instead, I developed my imagination（想象）, sensing the layout（布局）of places I visited and taking notes of landmarks（地标）in my mind.
At first, I'd have to stop to imagine and map a new space in my mind. The next time I visited that place, I would use that to find the way. Today I'm used to it. But I've still lost my way many times. I have to ask for help, not thinking what others think about me.
Sometimes I'd be down and I'd think about giving up. Maybe my uncle was right. Maybe I'd stay home and wait until someone came to help. On those days when I lost my way, I'd go to bed with a bad feeling. ▲ I had a strong wish to beat blindness and be successful, and that was usually enough to get me out of bed the next day and try again.
Along the way I learned to be patient with myself and realized that asking for help didn't diminish（贬低）me in any way. I've got three academic degrees（学位）so far.
Today, I'm a reporter and broadcaster. I've achieved my dream. Yes, I've lost my way many times and found it again. Yes, I've come close to being hit by a car but never been hit by one. When people ask, “Aren't you afraid to be out alone?” the answer to me is clear: I would face danger and find happiness instead of staying home and being unhappy.
