那年是1956年,我9岁。由于命运的安排,我进了一所公立学校,许多富人把他们的孩子也送到那所学校。我们镇基本上是个糖料种植场,种植场的经理和其他富裕的人,比如医生、商人、银行家都把孩子送进了这所学校,一到六年级都有。六年级之后他们的孩子通常会被送进私立学校。因为我家就在这个街区,所以我也进了这所学校。如果我家住在街的另一边,或许我会去另外一所学校,和那些家庭背景与我差不多的孩子们在一起了。
After grade 6, these kids and I would go on to the public intermediate and high school. There was no private school for them or for me.
并且六年级之后,我会和那些孩子一道去上公立的中学和高中,因为没有为我们这类孩子设立的私立中学。
My dad finally put down the paper. I could tell he was thinking.
爸爸终于放下了报纸,我敢说他刚才一定是在思考我的话。
"Well, son," he began slowly. "If you want to be rich, you have to learn to make money."
“哦,儿子,”他慢慢地开口了,“如果你想变得富有,你就必须学会挣钱。”
"How do I make money?" I asked.
“那么怎么挣钱呢?”我问。
"Well, use your head, son," he said, smiling. Which really meant, "That's all I'm going to tell you," or "I don't know the answer, so don't embarrass me."
