Think for a moment about the teachers you have had at school or at university.  Which one did you like best?  And Why?  Were the teachers you liked best also the ones who were the best teachers, in you opinion?  Before you read any further, consider for a minute the qualities that make a teacher outstanding(出色).

Some very common answers to this question are that teachers need to love their students, that they need to have an expert knowledge of their subjects, and that they should devote themselves completely to their jobs.  All of these ideas are, of course, true to a certain extent(程度)but they are perhaps a little too simple.

It is impossible for anyone to love everyone they know, and teachers deal with a very large number of students over the years.  On the other hand, teachers should certainly be able to make their students feel that they are interested in them as people and in the development of both their characters.  A deep knowledge on to the students effectively-a teacher needs to be trained in the skills of teaching.  These skills include how to control a class, and so on.  Finally, teachers have to devote a lot of time and energy to their work, of course.  However, they are also models that their students must follow;  so it is important that they should be well-balanced people with interests outside their school work-family, friends, hobbies, etc.  A teacher who only lives for work is likely to become too narrow-minded.

1. The author suggests that you think about the teachers you have had at school or at university so that_______

A. you might praise outstanding teachers

B. you might know the qualities of outstanding teachers

C. you might select outstanding teachers

D. you might learn from outstanding teachers

2. The author does not consider it possible for a teacher_______

A. to love all the students he has taught or is teaching

B. to have a good knowledge of the subject he teaches

C. to pass the knowledge of his subjects on to his students effectively

D. to be an example for his students to follow

3. A well - balanced person is one_______.

A. who devotes all his time and energy to his work

B. who devotes most of his time and energy to his family, friend, hobbies, etc

C. who has interests both in and outside his work

D. who has interests neither in nor outside his work

4. From the passage, we can conclude that_______.

A. most teachers are born with such skills as how to explain a lesson clearly

B. it is not necessary of teachers to spend much time and energy on their work if they do have an expert knowledge of their subjects

C. teachers should be trained to love all the students they are teaching or have taught

D. even if a teacher has a good knowledge of his subjects, he can not be a good teacher if he doesn’t have the ability to pass that knowledge on to his students.
