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 26 for 17 years, I had no 27 about my ability to hold their attention and to 28 on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.
I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “ 29 !”
The entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat 30 about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness was over, I quickly 31 my calmness and began what I thought was a fact-packed lecture, sure to gain their respect --- perhaps 32 their admiration.I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a sense of achievement.
My students 33 diaries.However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually 34 by a strong sense of sadness.The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. 35 her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a 36 theme.“Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historical 37 for all the works we will study in class,” I complained.“How 38 they say I didn’t teach them anything?”
It was a long term, and it 39 became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 40 of my students.I thought a teacher’s job was to raise 41 questions and provide enough background so that students could 42 their own conclusions.My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide 43 information as directly and clearly as possible.What a difference!
44 , I also learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a 45 American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.

David grew up poor. He started 26 in the 7th grade and by high school he was only going to school half days, leaving at 11 am to go to work.
Lack of money meant lack of 27 opportunities, but he had a 28 for knowledge. In his 29 time he read books on human development, vocabulary builders, 30 that he thought would help him succeed 31 down the road.
He was a hard worker and rose above his lack of higher education to produce decently for his family, 32 the factory life was taking it toll (造成伤害) on him 33 , emotionally, and spiritually. It was, in his mind, 34 him like a slow poison.
In 1995 he bought his first computer and a few months later discovered the Internet. He wanted to be a part of it, and worked 48 or more hours in the 35 and worked 36 40 or more hours a week teaching 37 computer skills. He worked harder than he 38 had in his life, logging over 100 hours a week on many, many 39 .
David began applying for jobs in the Internet and computer fields. He was shot down many times, but he never 40 . he had a goal and kept after it even when he didn’t feel like it because anything else seemed so 41 . That kind of drive and perseverance (坚持不懈) almost always pays off.
I’m 42 to say David left the factory and took a job in the computer field. He beat out college-educated applicants with 4-year degrees with his 43 skills.
