Passage3 After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him. I agreed. During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症 ). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dream. I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, Why me? He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didnt mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you. Last summer I received a letter from Matthews parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick, My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I dont have long to live anymore. But I still smile as much as I can. I told you someday I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I will never get to do that. But I know Im a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you.

I began studying this question after watching HBOs Taxicab Confessions, a series of documentaries(记录片) in which hidden cameras record the secrets of unsuspecting cab riders. I found the results varied.One morning I got into three different cabs and announced: Well, its my first day back in New York in seven years. Ive been in prison. Not a single driver replied, so I tried again. Yeah, I shot a man in Reno, I explained, hoping the driver would ask me why so I could say casually, Just to watch him die. But nobody asked. The only response came from a Ghanaian driver: Reno? That is in Nevada?Cabbies were very sympathetic(有同情心的) when I said Id just been fired. This is America, a Haitian driver said. One door is closed. Another is open. He argued against my plan to burn down my bosss house: If you do something silly and they put you away you cannot look for another job. A Pakistani driver even turned down a chance to profit from my loss of hope: he refused to take me to the middle of the George Washington Bridge, a $20 trip. Why you want to go there? Go home and relax. Dont worry. Take a new job.One very hot weekday in July, while wearing a red ski mask and holding a stuffed pillowcase with the word BANK on it. I tried hailing a cab five times outside different banks. The driver picked me up every time. My ride with Guy-Claude Thevenain, a Haitian driver, was typical of the superb assistance I received. Is anyone following us? No, said the driver, looking in his rearview mirror at traffic and me. Lets go across the park, I said, I just robbed the bank there. I got $25,000. $25,000? he asked. Yeah, you think it was wrong to take it? No, man. I work 8 hours and I dont make almost $70. If I can do that, I do it too. As we approached 86th and Lexington, I pointed to the Chemical Bank. Hey, theres another bank. I said, could you wait here a minute while I go inside? No, I cant wait. Pay me now. His unwillingness may have had something to do with money - cabbies think the rate for waiting time is too low - but I think he wanted me to learn that even a bank robber cant expect unconditional(无节制的) support.1.
