The Professor Is a Dropout

玫瑰金

读了这个故事很是感慨，一个被旧时教育体系评定为智力迟缓的墨西哥裔母亲的故事。

没想到还能找到全文链接，google就是好哇！分享一下http://www.townsendpress.com/pdf/a4e_rdg_01_dropout.pdf

感慨俺们现在能有这么多免费的英语学习资源多么幸福，在一个英语国家学习英语多么重要

怎么这么好的故事没人看啊？那就转点前言吧！
===============================

      Guadalupe Quintanilla is an assistant professor at the University of Houston. She is president of her own communications company. She trains law enforcement officers all over the country. She was nominated to serve as the U.S. Attorney General. She’s been a representative to the United Nations.
       That’s a pretty impressive string of accomplishments. It’s all the more impressive when you consider this: “Lupe” Quintanilla is a first-grade dropout. Her school records state that she is retarded, that her IQ is so low she can’t learn much of anything.
