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 __1__-speaking, with a good, strong,__2__voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to __3__what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

__4__a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class; he __5__the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his__6__, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express his__7__. Listen to him, and you will__8__the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always __9__according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't __10__that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important__11__between the teacher's work and the actor's. The__12__has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the__13__words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually__14__beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem __15__on the stage.

A good teacher__16__in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his __17__: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don't __18__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 __19__it as he goes along.

I have known many teachers who were fine__20__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.
