I’m a teacher. But there are days, like today, when I wonder why. The results of an English quiz taken by my fifth-graders were depressing. Despite my best efforts, the world of pronouns remains a mystery to them. How I wish there were a way to make the study of our language as exciting as a computer game, so the glazed (目光呆滯) looks would not appear in their eyes at the mention of the word “grammar.” I remember my husband’s words: “Why don’t you quit? You’d probably make more money by doing something else, and you wouldn’t have papers to grade every night.”
Tonight I have a stack of papers to grade, which I promised my students I would return tomorrow. But a friend, whom I haven’t seen in a year, is visiting from Belgium, and I told her I would keep this evening free.
Sitting in traffic behind a distant stoplight, it’s hard not to replay the day. A voice reports the body of a local youngster, missing for weeks, has been identified.
This missing child has had a deep effect on my students. They wondered, “If it happened to her, could it happen to me?”
My children had found the answer themselves. They got out their pencils, markers and made cards. Cards were written with words of compassion and love for a mother and father they didn’t know. Cards were filled with red hearts, golden crosses, flowers and angels. Their cards, intended to comfort others, comforted the children themselves by leading them past the anxiety, back into the world of security (安全) that should be theirs.
And then I remember why I’m still teaching. It’s the children. They’re more important than a lifetime filled with quiet evenings and more valuable than a pocket filled with money. My classroom, a child-filled world of discovery, of kindness and of caring is the real world.
It’s time to call my friend. I have promises to keep. She’ll understand. After all, she’s a teacher.
【小題1】The writer wonders why she is a teacher because _____.
A.her students often play games in class |
B.teaching is not a well-paid job |
C.her students feel bored with grammar |
D.she feels frustrated at teaching |
A.doubt | B.unconcern | C.sympathy | D.tolerance |
A.A pocket filled with money. |
B.The kind and caring children. |
C.A lifetime filled with quiet evenings. |
D.The freedom to control her own time. |
A.To grade papers that night. | B.To help a student with homework. |
C.To accept her husband’s advice. | D.To meet her old friend. |

I received a call today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need. The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks. Of course, I responded with an immediate “Yes!”. As I planned the meal in my head, I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food. I have done so countless times with a very open heart.
But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life. When my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. A woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food. The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.
Later in my life, when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help. They arranged babysitting for my twoyearold daughter, and brought lovely dinners to our house. Even when I was put in the hospital, my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room. How we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter.
Food is all about comfort. It feeds our bodies, but it can also feed our souls. When you hear people talking about their favourite holidays, it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food. I know that I will have many more opportunities in my lifetime to prepare food for others. It is truly a gift I want to prepare and deliver to someone in need.

When I learned that 71-year-old mother was playing
Scrabble —a word game, I knew I had to do something. My husband suggests we
give her a computer to play against herself. I wasn’t sure whether my mother
was ready for it. After all, it had taken 15 years to persuade her to buy an
electric cooker. Even so, we packed up our old computer and delivered it to my
parents’ home. And so began my mother’s adventure in the world of the
computers.
It also marked the beginning of an unusual teaching
task for me. I’ve taught people of all ages, but I never thought I would be teaching
my mother how to do anything.
She has been the one teaching me all my life: to cook
and sew; to enjoy the good times and put up with the bad. Now it was my turn to
give something back.
It wasn’t easy at the beginning. There
was so much to explain and to introduce. Slowly but surely, my mother caught
on, making notes in a little notebook. After a few months of Scrabble and other
games, I decided it was time to introduce her to word processing. This proved
to be a bigger challenge to her, so I gave her some homework. I asked her to
write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces.
“Are you this demanding with your kindergarten
pupils?” she asked.
“No, of course not,” I said.”They already know how to
use a computer.”
My mother isn’t the only one experiencing a fast
personal growth period. Thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over
his phone allergy(
過敏). For as long as I can remember, any time I called, my mother would
answer. Dad and I have had more phone conversations in the last two months than
we’ve had in the past 20 years.
1.What does the author do?
A.She is a cooker
B.She is a teacher
C.She is a housewife
D.She is a computer engineer
2.The author decided to give her mother a computer _____.
A.to let her have more chances to write letters
B.to support to her in doing her homework
C.to help her through the bad times
D.to make her life more enjoyable
3.The author asked her mother to write her a letter _____.
A.because her mother had stopped using the telephone
B.because she wanted to keep in touch with her mother
C.so that her mother could practice what she had learned
D.so that her mother could be free from the housework

C
Most Americans don’t like to get advice from members of their family. When they need advice, they don’t usually ask people they know. Instead, many Americans write letters to newspapers and magazines which advice give on many subjects, including family problems, the use of language, health, cooking, child care, clothes, how to buy a house or a car, and so on.
Most newspapers regularly print letters from readers with problems. Along with the letters are answers written by people who are supposed to solve (解決) such problems. Some of these writers are doctors; others are lawyers or educators. But two of the most famous writers of advice are women without special training for this kind of work. One of them answers letters addressed to “Dear Abby”. The other is addressed as “Dear Ann Landers”. Experience is their preparation for giving advice.
There is one writer who has not lived long enough to have much experience. She is a girl named Angel Caveliere, who started writing advice for newspaper readers at the age of ten. Her advice to young readers, now appears regularly in the Philadelphia Bulletin in a column called DEAR ANGEL.
