　　阅读下面短文并回答问题（请注意题后的词数要求）。

　　Passage 1

　　［1］I was one of the taller members of my class，standing a head above the other girls and bent down at the back of the line to avoid sticking out.I especially hated to hear people say.“Ruthie! Look how tall you’re getting!” But my grandfather would always tell me，“Stand straight and tall.” Later I understood his advice was about more than just height.

　　［2］My grandfather grew up in war-torn Europe.When German soldiers occupied his hometown，the beautiful city of Tarnow，Poland，he fought for his country’s freedom.“Stand straight，stand tall,” meant something else back then.

　　［3］After die war，he boarded a boat for America，arriving in Manhattan.All alone in a new country，he was frightened about his future.Still，he marched head-on into the streets of New York.Soon he met other European immigrants，each of them trying to find his or her own way.If they could do it，why couldn’t he? “Stand straight，stand tall,” he would remind himself.

　　［4］

　　the help of a loyal and trusting friend，my grandfather acquired a jewelry stand on Canal Street.He once told me how nervous he was on that first day of work.He was not only trying to learn this tough new business，but also a new language.
