My name is Scott and I am 36 years old. I have spent most of my adult life doing an   36  job, so I had a very cynical (憤世嫉俗的) view of life and the world around me. I saw no point in trying to   37  my life or the lives of the people around me.
Two years ago my wife   38  me to return to school and work toward a career where I would find satisfaction. So I entered Long Beach City College to pursue a   39  in history. Last term I took a political science class. The   40  Dr. Rock had such a great effect on me. He   41  in the Air Force, worked in the U.S. nuclear program and served in the White House. When I asked another instructor   42  someone who was so overqualified（資歷過高的）worked at a small community college, she   43  told me because he wanted to.
This   44  me, so I asked Dr. Rock himself why he did not pursue a better role in his career. What he told me has changed my   45  forever. He told me that by working at the college he  would be able to   46  the kinds of students he believed would make a   47  in the world. He said that   48  the right motivation and support, the students he taught could become the future leaders of our country. He said that he preferred the inner city   49  because the students there showed the   50  promise and cared deeply for their education.
Dr. Rock paid attention to the needs of the community. He taught me how to care and   51  us to take part in our community in any way we   52  .
I thought that I was the   53  one that was affected by his lessons, but at the end of the term I found that the entire class had felt the same   54  that came over me. Dr. Rock taught us how to   55    our country, our community and ourselves.
