John, 11 years old, was in bed in hospital. Several days before, while he was   41   in a baseball game, he fell and hit his head. The doctors believed that he might   42   get well.

“ He seems to have given up hope. So medicines alone won’t  43  . Perhaps he needs something else,” said a doctor. “When I visit him, all he ever says is that he would like to meet Babe Ruth.”

To meet Babe Ruth, of course, was not  44  . In America, Babe Ruth was as  45  a man as the President himself, and he was the most famous baseball player.

The next day John’s father managed to tell Babe Ruth about the story of his son on the phone. Twenty-four hours later, as the boy  46  in his hospital room, in walked   47  . Young John could hardly believe his own eyes!

The great baseball player sat down at John’s bedside, saying, “Now, listen, kid, you’ve got to get well. I’ve brought  you a new American League baseball,  48  you must start throwing it.”

For John this was the beginning of a new life.  49  his doctors’ surprise, the boy walked out of the hospital on his own a few weeks later. He was able to live a healthy life---all because of the  50  of Babe Ruth.

A new term has begun. Teachers are  51  about the fact that new students are not easy to deal with. They like to bring cellphones and MP3 players to school. What is worse , some students even use cellphones  52  out-of-class matters in class, or sometimes just for fun. Some  53  students listen to MP3 players when they are having a lesson that they are not interested in.

Are these new students really that  54  ? “Yes.” Says Delaney Kirk, a professor(教授) at Drake University. But she adds it’s not their fault. 55 , the teachers should be blamed(责备). Mrs Kirk first began thinking about students’ manners six years ago. “I had my first class in which students were sleeping or talking to each other. It seemed that learning well had nothing to do with them.” She says. “At first, I got worried about this.” But then I said to  56 , “You’re giving lessons, and you need to manage this kind of situation. These students need to know more about manners. It’s time to help them develop some good  57 . They shouldn’t waste time doing nothing when they are young. Sooner or later, they may regret(后悔) the time they  58 .

Mrs Kirk also makes a list of suggestions to help teachers better manage(驾驭) their classes. The following are among her suggestions:

l     On the first day of class, tell students how they will benefit(受益)by taking the class and the importance  59  listening carefully in class.

l     Do not allow them to bring cellphones or MP3 players to the class at all.

l     Tell them how to use cellphones or MP3 players  60 .
