Brittnie Pemberton listened attentively as Jim Herrick took her and her mother, Tanya, on a brief tour of San Diego State University on Thursday. Her dream is much closer to reality after she received a promise from the university. The university promised that she would get a full four-year scholarship to the school as long as she met the entrance requirements.
Brittnie, 10, laughed. Her mom cried.
They live at the Salvation Army Door of Hope, a living center for homeless women and their children. Photojournalist Linda Solomon met them in August when she came to the facility and taught boys and girls, ages three-and-a-half to 13, how to take pictures. She gave them all disposable cameras and told them to capture images that reflected their dreams. The children's images - a big house, a church, a playground, a backyard and more - are kept. This is a project called“Pictures of Hope organized by the Salvation Army
I wish to go to college, so I took a picture of the sign out in front of San Diego State University, Brittnie said last month. The Fletcher Elementary School fifth-grader was pointing to the Christmas card bearing her photograph.
Adrienne Finley, development director at the Salvation Army, hosted a reception for Solomon, who told Finley about the president of a small university who gave a child the scholarship she dreamed of last year.
Finley called his old friend, Herrick, who serves as the SDSU President. We have a wonderful opportunity here to make a difference in a little girl's life, Finley said. Soon her mom and Brittnie were face to face with SDSU President Jim Herrick.
You must be Brittnie, he said, reaching out to shake her hand. She quickly pulled her hands out of the pockets of the new SDSU sweatshirt she had been given that morning.
They sat down at a table in his office and talked about college, about science, about her love of math and his hope that she and other girls wouldn't lose interest in those subjects, as happens to many girls as they grow older.
Then they talked about how much discipline she would need over the next eight years to make her dream come true. Both signed the paper outlining their agreement to the terms of the scholarship. Back outside on the sunny campus, Brittnie admitted she's tempted sometimes not to do her homework. But not anymore, she said.

最佳答案
(答案→)B 解析:【小题1】从文章第一段的最后一句话可以找到答案, a full four-year scholarship意思是“四年的全额奖学金,”这就意味着只要Brittnie被大学录取,她将免费上大学。【小题2】从文章第六行可知答案。【小题3】从文章第四段中可以知道,Brittnie只是给SDSC大学门口的标志照了照片,而不是给自己照,其它信息都正确。【小题4】文章倒数第二段中,校长在表达希望时,希望Brittnie能保持对理科科目的兴趣。因为到了后来很多女生就会对数学等不感兴趣,所以我们可以推测随着年龄长大,很多女孩子的理科成绩会不如男生。【小题5】从文章的最后两句话可以看出,得知自己能得到全额奖学金Brittnie打算不再缺交作业,可见她是受到了鼓舞。
