To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your students, you must be ?　36　?—speaking, with a good, strong,?　37　? voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to ?　38　? what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

?　39　? a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class; he ?　40　? the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his ?　41　?,hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express his ?　42　?.Listen to him, and you will ?　43　? the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always ?　44　? according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't ?　45　 that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important ?　46　? between the teacher's work and the actor's. The ?　47　? has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the ?　48　? words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually ?　49　? beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem ?　50　? on the stage.?

A good teacher ?　51　? in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his ?　52　?:they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don't ?　53　? something, they will say no. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students, which is in his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must ?　54　? it as he goes along.

I have known many teachers who were fine ?　55　? in class but unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn't keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what another had written.

One day in l965, when I worked at View Ridge School in Seattle, a fourth-grade teacher approached me. She had a student who finished his work before all the others and needed a challenge. "Could he help in the library?" She asked. I said, "Send him along."

　　Soon a slight, sandy-haired boy in jeans and a T-shift appeared. "Do you have a job for me?" he asked.

　　I told him about the Dewey Decimal System for shelving books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him a stack of cards for long-overdue books that I was beginning to think had actually been returned but were misshelved with the wrong cards in them. He said, "Is it kind of a detective job?" I answered yes, and he became working.

　　He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and announced, "Time for break!" He argued for finishing the finding job; She made the case for fresh air. She won.

　　The next morning, he arrived early. "I want to finish these books," he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to be a librarian on a regular basis, it was easy to say yes. He worked untiringly.

　　After a few weeks I found a note on my desk, inviting me to dinner at the boy's home. At the end of a pleasant evening, his mother announced that the family would be moving to neighbouring school district. Her son's first concern, she said, was leaving the View Ridge library. "Who will find the lost books?" he asked.

　　When the time came, I said a reluctant good-bye. I missed him, but not for long. A few days later he came back and joyfully announced: "The librarian over there doesn't let boys work in the library. My mother got me transferred back to View Ridge. My dad will drop me off on his way to work. And if he can’t, I'll walk!"

I should have had an inkling(感觉) such focused determination would take that young man wherever he wanted to go. What I could not have guessed, however, was that he would become a wizard of the Information Age: Bill Gates, tycoon of Microsoft and America's richest man.

　I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.

    Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed（解散）. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible (负责任) for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized（强调） the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating（欺骗） themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously（认真地） about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.

    Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued（继续） to believe that I had cheated on the test.
