  A good teacher is many things to many people.In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded (要求) the most discipline (纪律) from their students.

  I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school.I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person.I remember very vividly (清晰地) a sign over her classroom door.It was a simple sign that said,“Laborato ry-in this room the first five letters of the word was emphasized (强调), not the last seven.”In other words, I guess, labor(劳动) for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.

  She prepared her work very care-fully and demanded us to do the same.We got lots of homework from her.Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the home-work load would be reduced, but it con tinued just the same.She checked our work by stamping her name at the bot tom of the papers to show that she had read them.

  I think sometimes teachers who de mand the most are liked the least.But as time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit (有益于) the students.

After sunset on our last day at the farm I walked out into the desert. In this, the first pleasant moment for a walk after long hot hours, I thought I was the only thing out of doors. Suddenly I stopped. Before me a rattlesnake lay fixed, its head not yet drawn back to strike but only turned a little to watch what I would do. Many snakes will run away at the sight of a man but this rattlesnake felt no necessity to get out of any-body's way. He held his ground in calm watch-fullness waiting for me to show my intentions. My first aim was to take no notice of him; I had never killed an animal if I was not forced to kill. But I remembered that there were children, dogs and horses at the farm as well as men and women with thin clothes on; my duty was to kill the snake. I went back to the farm and returned with a stick. The rattlesnake had not moved; he lay like a wire but more quickly than I could stride he shot into a bush and set up his rattling, warning me by this that I had made an unreasonable attack and attempted to take his life and that if I insisted he would have no choice but to take mine if he could. For a moment I listened to this terrifying sound and then I struck into the bush with my stick and, chop-ping about, dragged him out of the bush with his back broken.

He struck once more at the stick but a moment later his neck was broken and he was soon dead althoughwww..com when I picked him up by the tail his mouth opened, proving that a dead snake may still bite. There was blood in his mouth and poison was dropping; it was not only a dis-gusting(令人作呕的) sight but a pitiful one too. I dropped the body into a green bush and, as I did so, I saw him in my imagination, crawling over the sands as he might have done if I had let him go.
