Children and young people tend to have certain role models – people they want to be like when they grow . Though children would have wished to copy their mother, father or a (n) relative, gradually these role models are thought of as famous people or popular . People have different opinions about popular stars or other famous people are good role models for children. Charming models, such as Katie Price, are often and thought highly of by young girls. This is the biggest worry of parents and teachers. They wish to their children to have the concept (概念) that success is achieved through hard work and rather than an attractive looking.
Most people tend to grow up to be those are close to home — their parents or family friends. Some decide to be like their favorite teacher. A child who loves to may want to grow to be the next Picasso or Van Gogh; Someone who loves to might imagine themselves as a famous writer; if a child enjoys dancing, he or she well admire a famous dancer, but this is not the . A lot of dance students wish to be like their teacher.
Therefore, the job of a teacher is just providing knowledge of a given subject. They should be able to their students’trust and them well. Helping youngsters to learn from models, to learn how to accept with grace(优雅) and losing with respect, is central to any parent’s or teacher’s job. Manners are very important and a dance teacher can his or her position and influence to good behaviors to youngsters.

Once upon a time, there was a large mountainside, where an eagle’s nest rested. The eagle’s nest contained four 36 eagle eggs. One day an earthquake rocked (使震动) the mountain 37 one of the eggs to roll down the mountain, 38 a chicken farm, which was in the valley below. The chickens knew that they must 39 and care for the eagle’s egg, so an old hen 40 to hatch (孵) and raise the large egg.
One day, the egg hatched and a beautiful eagle was born. 41 , however, the eagle was raised to be a(n) 42 . Soon, the eagle believed he was 43 more than a chicken. The eagle loved his home and family, 44 his spirit cried out for more. While playing a game on the farm one day, the eagle looked to the skies above and 45 a group of eagles soaring (高飞) in the skies. “Oh,” the eagle 46 , “I wish I could soar like those birds.” The chickens shouted with 47 , “You cannot soar with those birds. You are a chicken and chickens do not soar.”
The eagle 48 staring at his real family up above, 49 that he could be with them. Each time the eagle would let his 50 be known, he was told it couldn’t be done. That is 51 the eagle learned to believe. Slowly, the eagle 52 dreaming and continued to live his life like a chicken. 53 , after a long life as a chicken, the eagle 54 .
You become what you believe you are; so if you ever dream to become an eagle, 55 your dreams, not the words of a chicken.
We are warned by our teachers not to waste time because time 26 will never return. I think it quite 27. What does time look 28 ? Nobody knows, and we can’t see it or touch it and no 29 of money can buy it. Time is abstract(抽象的), so we have to 30 about it.
Time passes very quickly. Some students say they don’t have 31 time to review their lessons. It is 32 they don’t know how to make use of their time. They waste it in going to theatres or playing, and 33 other useless things. Why do we study everyday? Why do we work? Why do most people 34 take buses instead of walking? The answer is very 35 .We wish to save time because time is36.
Today we are living in the 21st century. We 37 time as life. When a person dies, his life ends. Since life is short, we must 38 our time and energy to our study so that we 39 be able to work and live well in the future. Laziness is the 40 of time, for it not only brings us 41 , but also does other 42 to us. If it is necessary for us to do our work today, 43 we do it today and not 44 it until tomorrow. Remember that time is much more 45.

I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Company. Among the 21 we discuss in our classes is the 22 of quality employees（雇员）
“What has caused you to stay 23 enough to become a manager?" I asked. After a while a new manager took the 24 and said slowly, "it was a baseball glove.”
Cynthia said she used to 25 a Circle K clerk job as an interim (时临的.) one while she looked for something 26 . On her second day behind the counter, she received a (an) 27 from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He 28 a baseball glove for the little League. She 29 that as a single mother, money was 30 , and her first check would have to go for paying 31.
When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Partircia, the store manager asked her to come to her small office and handed her a box. “I overheard you 32 to your son yesterday,” she said, “and I know that it is 33 to explain things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie. I know you have to pay bills 34 you can buy gloves. You know we can’t 35 good people like you as 36 as we would like to; but we do 37 and I want you to know how 38 you are to us.”
The thoughtfulness, empathy (同情) and love of the store manager show vividly that people 39 more how much a( n) 40 cares than how much he pays.

Mobile phones are everywhere in big cities. It seems that 16 can survive without one. Mobile phones are a great 17 to stay connected with friends and family. 18 , it is important to remember that there are certain times 19 you should not be using your phone, especially as a student, during school.
20 you are in class, you should not be sending your friends text messages 21 taking phone calls. Your classmates and teacher should not have to deal with this rude 22 . Aren’t you at school to learn?
In the United States, students would never be allowed to 23 their mobile phones during class. If you were to send or 24 a text message you would probably be kicked 25 class. It is very disturbing to hear a lot of tones and ringing during 26. There are many more rules for mobile phone use in America and it is to 27 respect for those around you.
As a teacher in China, I have to 28 students using mobile phones every day. I have told my class to 29 their phones, but many students do not listen. The 30 to be connected all the time seems to be more 31 than the desire to learn.
It’s easy to understand 32 it is so tempting(诱惑人的) to have your phone on during class. It seems so easy just to send a short text message; it’s not hurting anyone, is it? But you may actually be hurting 33 when you do this. Your teacher knows when you use your phone and may give you a 34 grade. Sending a text message also takes your attention away from what’s going on in class, you may 35 something important.
