We have completed our first month of preschool .Matthew seems to 36 it ,He is catching on to the routine (常规)quite nicely .I didn’t leave him there 37 much the first couple weeks ,I am finding if I’m not there he behaves much better .
In this class a little German boy ,who does not speak 38 ,cried all the time at first and nor cries occasionally.
The Monday of the second week the little fellow just cried and cried .he was sitting 39 Matthew ,I thought Matthew was going to start 40 and join in ,I stood by and watched ,ready for the rescue ,Matthew kept turning around and 41 the boy ,Then he reached his hand back and 42 him on the leg .He was comforting the boy! Later Matthew was playing with a 43 and the boy with blocks (积木),actually he was just standing by and crying .Matthew drove his truck over to the blocks , 44 it ,picked up a few of the blocks and started handing them to 45 .They then together started 46 towers on the table and the little boy 47 crying ,It seemed 48 Matthew knew what the little guy needed ,Here was the little guy ,who can’t speak English ,and Matthew ,who 49 playing together ,like they were best 50 .
One of the days when I stayed ,they were at lunch and Matthew was 51 at the table ,I pulled up a chair to sit next to him ,He smiled ,then grabbed his book bag and took off running 52 the cafeteria ,I took off after him ,When we reached the wall he wall he just giggled (咯咯笑),turned around and looked at me ,I leaned down to his 53 to blame him for leaving his seat and running ,He suddenly 54 a big wet kiss right on my lips and smiled at me ,All I could do was to take his hand and 55 him back to his seat ,Then I turned my back and couldn’t help laughing.

I'd been travelling for long hours on a lonely country road when I had a flat tire. So I had to stop and get the tools to 36 the problem. It certainly wasn’t 37 doing this with a white shirt and suit on.
Nightfall was approaching. Suddenly a car pulled 38 from behind me. A man got out and offered to 39 me. Seeing his unpleasant appearance and tattoos（纹身）on his arm, I became 40 as thoughts of robberies flashed through my mind. But 41 I could say anything he had already begun to take the tools to change the 42 . While watching him I happened to look back at his car and noticed someone sitting in the passenger seat. This had 43 me.
Then, without 44 , it began to rain. He suggested that I wait in his car because my car was unsafe. As the rain increased, getting us wet within seconds, I 45 agreed. When I settle into the back seat, a woman’s voice came from the front seat. “Are you all right?” She turned around to me. “Yes, I am.’’ I replied with much 46 when seeing an old woman there. It must be his Mom, I thought. To my 47 , the old woman was a neighbor of the man who was helping me. “Jeff insisted on stopping when he saw you 48 with the tire. ”“I am grateful for his help, ” I said. “Me, too!” she said with a smile. He helped drive her to see her husband twice a week in a nursing home. She also said that he 49 at the church and tutored disadvantaged students.
The rain stopped and Jeff and I changed me tire. I tried to offer him money and of course he 50 it. It was shameful that I judged people by the way they 51 . As we shook hands I began to apologize for my 52 . He said, ‘‘I experience that same 53 often. People who look like me don’t do nice things. I 54 thought about changing the way. But then I saw this as a chance to make a 55 . So I’ll leave you with the same question I ask everyone who takes time to know me. If Jesus returned tomorrow and walked among us again, would you recognize Him by what He wore or by what He did?’’

I live in a big city. It’s noisy and dirty and I got very 36 .At the weekends I like to leave the city and get some 37 air and a good rest. A few weeks ago I decided to go to see my 38 . I was really looking forward to it.
My parents live a long way 39 . I went to see them with James, a friend, and we drove on Friday night. In the middle of the 40 it began to rain. The road became very 41 and it was difficult to drive. We arrived home just after midnight, feeling very 42 . The next 43 it was still raining. James took his 44 to a garage which was very good.
In the afternoon the 45 improved, we wanted to go for a 46 . My parents lent us their car. That was no good. Their car didn’t 47 . We rang up the garage. “Oh,” They said, “Your car 48 be ready till tomorrow.” So it wasn’t 49 to go for a drive. We decided to play a word game. When we didn’t agree 50 a word we looked for a dictionary. It wasn’t there. 51 my mother remembered, “I lent it to your sister. She took it with her when she left.” The word game wasn’t any good 52 a dictionary.
On Sunday my mother dropped a heavy box on her 53 and we had to hire a 54 to take her to hospital. When James and I drove back we got stuck in a car accident. Next time I want a rest, I’ll stay 55 .

I went to the classroom with great confidence when I gave my first lesson to my English literature class. Since I had taught in America for many years, I had no 36 ______ about my ability to hold their attention and to 37 ______ them my admiration for the literature of my native language.
I was 38 ______ when the monitor shouted，“ Stand up！ ” The whole class 39 ______ as I entered the classroom. I was somewhat 40 ______ how I could get them to sit down again, but once that embarrassment was over, I quickly 41 ______ my calmness and began what I thought was a fact- packed lecture, sure to gain their 42 ______ — perhaps even their admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow(满面红光）which came from a sense of 43 ______ .
All ray students 44 ______ diaries. However, as I read their diaries, the rosy glow was gradually 45 ______ by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said，“ Our literature teacher didn't teach us anything today. Her next lecture will 46 ______ be better. ” Greatly surprised，I read diary after diary, each expressing a 47 ______ theme. “ Didn't I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historical 48 ______ for all the works we'll study in class, “ I complained. “ How should they say I didn't 49 ______ them anything?"
After a long term ’ I gradually learned that my ideas about 50 ______ were not the same as those of my students. I thought a teacher's job was to 51 ______ questions and provide enough background so that students could 52 their own conclusions, while my students thought a teacher's job was to provide 53 information as directly and clearly as possible. What a great 54 ______ !
However, I also learned a lot, and my 55 ______ with my Chinese students has made me a better American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.
