阅读理解 My first year of teaching was an emotionally(情感上) exhausting job with few payoffs. I was young, inexperienced, and had class after class of twenty kids just waiting for me to make a mistake. After a particularly long night of marking papers and thinking about how many weeks I had left until I could breathe, I had some of those mornings when I began to question my job choice. I'd become a teacher to help kids. Instead, I felt like I couldn't even help myself anymore. It was just Mother's Day, and as I sat at my desk surrounded by lesson plans, I wondered how I'd ever have enough energy to have children of my own, much less continue teaching. That was when I heard a knock at my door. One of my students came in-the country boy who was no great shakes at school. He handed me a large flower that probably came from his family's farm. He had stuck a bird feather in it. "I got you a Mother's Day gift" he said. Most middle school and high school teachers don't receive presents. Lots of festivals had already come and gone with any gifts. I was so shocked that I just stared. Embarrassed by my silence, he said, "You know…since you're like a mother to us and all that, I thought you should get a present, too." I smiled and told him he was the sweetest person in the whole world, and I just loved it. Based on his smile, I knew I'd done enough work of making him feel quite proud of himself. What drove that twelve-year-old to bring me a homemade present? I'll never know. Once he left the room, I locked the door. And I cried. From then on, I knew what this job meant to me. （1） What do we know about the author from Paragraph1? A . She was short of confidence. B . She was hard on her kids. C . She was eager for a high pay.
