  Many years ago my student asked me the question,“Mrs.Kindred, why do you teach?”Without taking time to reflect, I answered,“Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life.”Even though I was sincere, that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide.

  “Let me get this straight,”he said,“You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?”He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused.I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift.

  Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder.On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach:

  It's in my blood.My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990.She instilled(逐渐灌输)in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors for.

  Teaching is a way to make a difference.If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore.You can't have ripples without a“stone.”Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and that's what I strive to do.

  I genuinely love teenagers.

  I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years.Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes(洞坑)on the road of life, I want to do so.If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too.

  Teaching isn't for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.

When I was learning calligraphy my teacher told me a story.

A calligrapher taught handwriting. One of his students who often practised handwriting with old sheets of newspapers complained that he made very little progress though he had learned it with the calligrapher for a long time. His teacher said to him, “Try to use the best paper. Maybe you’ll write better. ”

 The student did as he was told. It really worked. He made headway not long afterwards and felt curious. He asked his teacher about the reason. The calligrapher answered, “When you used old newspapers to practice handwriting,you would think you were writing a draft(草稿).  It didn’t matter if you wrote badly as old newspapers were plenty in supply. In that case you wouldn’t pay much attention to it. Now you use the best paper you’ll treasure it. Each time you write you feel strongly about the rarity (稀少) of chances and you’ll devote to it with all your heart and soul; you’ll do the handwriting much more attentively than otherwise practising it. Of course you’ve made rapid progress.”

Indeed,we spend our ordinary days just as they are worthless “old newspapers”. We don’t care if we scrawl and waste them, thinking that they will come endlessly --- those “old newspapers” are inexhaustible. In such a mood we may each day pass by opportunities but fail to catch any of them.

Life is not a military exercise but an actual war in which real weapons are used. In everyday life there’s no chance for us to draw a draft. That’s because what we call “draft” actually is the answer sheet we write that cannot be changed. Every day of our life is something new. Let us take every day as a sheet of best paper.

1.The calligrapher in the story told the student to write on the best paper because he thought _______.

A.the student would practice more carefully on the best paper

B.it was comfortable to write on the bet paper

C.the student had enough money to buy the best paper.

D.the student could write more on the best paper.

2.The student didn’t make much progress at first because _________.

A.he regarded his writing on old newspaper just as a draft

B.he was too poor to buy better paper to write

C.he didn’t follow his teacher’s advice

D.he was not used to the calligrapher’s teaching manner

3.We learn from the passage that _________.

A.the student finally gave up

B.the student made rapid progress by persisting more carefully

C.the calligrapher was strict with his students

D.old newspaper is not useful

4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A.What teachers say is always true.

B.Success calls for attentiveness.

C.Handwriting is easy to practice.

D.New things are always better than old ones.

5.The writer wants to tell us that _________.

A.there are some good ways to practice handwriting

B.life is like old newspaper

C.we should learn from the student in the story

D.life will not give us a chance to draw a draft

  Full-time university students spend all their time studying. They don’t do other work. Their course usually lasts for three or four years. Medical students have to follow a course lasting for six or seven years. Then they graduate as doctor. In Britain, full-time university students have three terms of about ten weeks in each year. During these terms they go to lectures or they study by themselves. Their vacations are long, but of course they can use them to study at home.

  Some universities, like Oxford and Cambridge in England, are residential. This means that during the university terms the students live in universities.

  Other universities are non-residential. Some of the students at these universities can live in a university hotel, but many live at home or in lodgings and have to travel daily to their lectures. Large cities often have universities of this kind, sometimes the students have to spend a lot of time on their journeys.

  Full-time students are also called internal students, because they spend all their times at universities. There are also external students who cannot attend the university full-time but who are studying for its examinations. They are part-time students. They have to do other work during the day, usually to earn their living, and they study in the evening.

  External students are often older than full-time internal students. Sometimes they can attend lectures in the evening, but many of them have to study by correspondence(函授).they write at home the work that is set by their tutors(指导教师).Then have to pass their work to their tutors post corrections and advice back to them.

  In some countries,” Universities of the Air” can now help students to receive degrees. After special lectures on radio or television, these students have to send set work for correction by correspondence .However, for a few weeks each year they can attend special vacation course at universities.
