Most teachers agree that the first lesson of
a teacher is often unforgettable. I remember getting into the class with the

which I __37__ my first lesson was well-known to hold the most troublesome
students in the city and this made me more nervous. But I tried my best not to

naughty. As soon as I started writing on the blackboard, I heard some noise
from the back. I __42__ the students to find out who did it, but the class
looked very __8__. I went on writing and the noise went on again. Then I
stopped my lesson to solve this problem because I believed that if I lost
control of the class from the __43__ I wouldn’t be able to get it back. I
thought the big boy made the noise. To my surprise, the trouble was from a
small boy. Days went on and I discovered that the big boy was good and quiet. From
then on, I realized that judging by appearance can often be wrong, not only
with __44__.
