If you grew up in an unusual family and felt limited by family thoughts, how would you change your life story? In the book Educated, the US writer Tara Westover shows us how she deals with hard times.
The book talks about Tara's life. Her father had a junkyard(废品场) in Idaho, the US. It's a very small mountain village. Tara and her brothers and sisters worked every day. Before she turned 17, she had never travelled outside. None of the kids in her family had ever been to a school or a hospital. As she got older, she felt that she needed to get away from this uncomfortable situation. Luckily, Tara's older brother taught her to read. With hard work, Tara went to college on a scholarship, and later got a PhD(博士学位) in History at the University of Cambridge.
Education changed her, her way of thinking and even her luck. After reading the book, I come to feel the deepest thanks for my own family, and the education I got. Education allows girls like Tara to fly like birds toward their own goals. It allows us to get a different view, find new experiences, better understand others and explore the wider world. I wish all of us to be like free and powerful birds, growing and changing through challenges and difficulties.
