Richard Rice, a fast-talking man paced up and down in front of freshmen debate class, 1 us about his high expectations．We were special, he declared on our first day at Oak Park High School．But there would be no 2 to success．Only those who worked hard would shine．

Suddenly Mr. Rice 3 in mid-sentence and stared at me．"You know," he said, "you're black!" Somehow, I knew he 4 trying to hurt me．

Mr. Rice was no 5 teacher．I entered high school not 6 quite sure what debate was．I left his class four years later as an outstanding debater．Even today, I'm not sure what 7 such a great teacher of him．He always said 8 he was thinking．And he was 9 ．He'd 10 out of the classroom angrily if he thought a student was giving 11 his effort．The worst thing with us was to be taken no notice of． 12 , being torn apart by Mr. Rice in the middle of a practice debate meant you were one of his favorites．

He wasn't always 13 on us．I'll never forget the National Student Debate, at which my calm delivery and my firm grasp of the problems disappeared．The only face I could 14 in the audience was Mr. Rice's face．I could 15 I was doing terribly just by looking at him．After it was over, he came 16 to me．"Not my best 17 , " I said．He shook his head, "No," Then , to my 18 , he gave me a hug．

Mr. Rice's style didn't make him a great teacher for everyone．Many kids 19 out of the debate class after the first year．But for me four years with him was my unforgettable 20 of a lifetime．
