Passage Three
Doctor Ben Carson grew up in a poor single parent household in Detroit. His
mother, who had only a third-grade education, worked two jobs cleaning
bathrooms. To his classmates and even to his teachers, he was thought of as the
dumbest kid in the class, according to his own not so fond memories. He had a
terrible temper, and once threatened to kill another child. Doctor Carson was
headed down a path of self-destruction until a critical moment in his youth. His
mother, convinced that she had to do something dramatic to prevent him from
leading a life of failure, laid down some rules. He could not watch television
except for two programs a week, could not play with his friends after school
until he finished his homework, and had to read two books a week and write book
reports about them. His mother’s strategy worked. “Of course, I didn’t know she
couldn’t read, so there I was submitting these reports.” He said. “She would put
check marks on them like she had been reading them. As I began to read about
scientists, economists and philosophers, I started imaging myself in their
shoes. As he got in the habit of hard work, his grades began to soar.
Ultimately, he received a scholarship to attend Yale University. And later, he
was admitted to the University of Michigan Medical School. He is now a leading
surgeon at John’s Hopkins Medical School, and he’s also the author of three
books.

Q24. What did Ben Carson classmates and teachers think about him when he
