12、 四川省南充高中顺庆校区10-11学年高一第一次阶段性考试 (英语) To
be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able
to 41 the attention and interest of your students, you must be a 42 speaker,
with a good, strong pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you
must be able to 43 what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.
Watch a good teacher, and you will see that
he does not sit still 44 his class:
he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his 45 , hands and fingers to help him in his
explanation, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will 46
the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always 47 according
to what he is 48 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a
good actor doesn’t 49 that he will indeed be able to act 50 on the stage, for
there are very important 51 between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The 52
has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the
53 words each time he plays a certain part, 54 his movements and the ways in which he
uses his voice are usually 55 beforehand. What he has to do is to make all th
ese
carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.
A good teacher 56 in quite a different way. His students take an
active part in his 57 : they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if
they don’t 58 something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act
to the needs of his students, which is in his class. He can’t learn his part by
heart, but must 59 it as he goes along.
I have known many teachers who were fine 60 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.
