I arrived in the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 75 students who would be my English Literature class.Having taught in 1for 17 years, I had no 2about my ability to hold their attention and to 3on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.
I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “ 4!”
The entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat 5about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness was over, I quickly 6my calmness and began what I thought was a fact-packed lecture, sure to gain their respect --- perhaps 7their admiration.I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a sense of achievement.
My students 8diaries.However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually 9by a strong sense of sadness.The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. 10her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a 11theme.“Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historical 12for all the works we will study in class,” I complained.“How 13they say I didn’t teach them anything?”
It was a long term, and it 14became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 15of my students.I thought a teacher’s job was to raise 16questions and provide enough background so that students could 17their own conclusions.My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide 18information as directly and clearly as possible.What a difference!
19, I also learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a 20American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 1 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n) 2 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”
Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 3 .
The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they 4 the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (喷洒) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames 5 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.
6 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and rolled him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 7 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars (伤疤). So, he had to return to college with scars.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very 8 scar on her arm. “Ann, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It doesn’t mean they won’t 9 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I 10 this wisdom (智慧) on to my son. He took my advice to 11 and returned to school with his head held high — glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not matter, so he made the 12 to give up any plastic surgery (外科手术).
We all have “scars” that 13 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 14 standards(标准). Put your imperfections out of your 15 and concentrate (集中) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.
