I arrived in the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 75 students who would be my English Literature class. Having taught in the US for 17 years, I had no 36 about my ability to hold their attention and to 37 on them my admiration for the literature（文学）of my mother tongue.
I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “ 38 !” and the entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat 39 about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness（尴尬）was over, I quickly 40 my calmness and began what I thought was a fact – packed lecture, sure to gain their respect – perhaps 41 their admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a (n) 42 of achievements.
My students 43 diaries. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually 44 by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. 45 her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a 46 subject. “Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework（哲学体系）of Western thought and laid the historical 47 for all the works we’ll study in class,” I complained. “How 48 they say I didn’t teach them anything?”
It was a long term, and it 49 became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 50 of my students. I thought a teacher’s job was to raise 51 questions and provide enough background so that students could 52 their own conclusions. My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide 53 information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!
54 , I also learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a 55 American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.

Spotty had been visiting Brownie __52__, in a single-minded quest to keep his friend alive by offering his own comfort. Spotty had obviously stayed with Brownie to protect him from being hurt, snuggling (依偎) with him at night to keep him __53__ and touching him gently with its nose to keep his spirits up.
Brownie’s __54__ was treated by a veterinarian and he recovered. For many years afterwards, the two families watched the faithful friends frolicking (嬉戏) __55__ chasing each other down that well-worn path between their houses.

Your friends might be in Australia or maybe just down the road , but they are all just a few clicks (点击)away. Life has 21 for millions of teenagers across the world who now make friends online. 22 you use chat rooms, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are 23 of a virtual community(虚拟社区).
“I rarely talk with my parents or grandparents, 24 I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ,” said Fox’s Shadow, the online nickname(网名)used by a Senior 2 girl in China. “Eighty per cent of my classmates use QQ 25 school.”
QQ is the biggest messaging 26 in China. A record 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October, 27 to Tencent, the company which developed QQ.

Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making 31 with strangers online. “You don’t know 32 you’re talking to. You should 33 be careful about who you trust online.”

However, not all teenagers have been so 36 . At the beginning of this year, a 17-year-old girl was killed after meeting a friend she had found on QQ. The criminals weren’t 37 until last month.
A 16-year-old Beijing boy, known online as Bart Simon, dislikes QQ users. “I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people were talking 38 ,” he said. Now he chats online in English, using MSN. But he spends little time chatting as he sees it as a 39 of time and money. “If you are really 40 to it, sometimes you just can’t concentrate in class,” he said.
