feelings,wandering stories and one lost shoe(“and if you dont find it my motherll kill me”).My work is dominated by six-year-olds.,Its 10.45,the middle of snack,and Im helping Emily open her milk carton.She has already tried the other end without success,and now theres so much paint and ink on the carton from her fingers that Im not sure she should drink it at all.But I open it.Then I turn to help Scott clean up some milk he has just spilled onto Rebeccas whale crossword puzzle.,13/136,Digging,2,While I wipe my milk-and paint-covered hands,Jenny wants to know if Ive seen that funny book,about penguins that I read in class.As I hunt for it in,a,messy,pile of books,Jason wants to know if there is,a new seating,arrangement,for lunch tables.I find the,book,turn to answer Jason,then face Maya,who is,fast approaching with a new,knock-knock,joke.After,what seems like the tenth“Whos there?I laugh and,Maya is pleased.,14/136,译文,Digging,3,Then Andrew wants to know how to spell“flukes”,for his crossword.As I get to“u”,I give a hand signal,for Sarah to,take away,the snack.But just as Sarah is,almost out the door,two children complain that“we,havent even had ours yet”.,I stop the snack mid-flight,comply,ing with their request for graham crackers.,I then return to Andrew,noticing that he has put“flu”for 9 Down,rather than 9 Across.Its now 10.50.,15/136,译文,Digging,4,My work is not traditional male work.Its not a,singular,pursuit.There is not a large pile of paper to,get through,or one deal to,transact,.I dont have one area of expertise or knowledge.I dont have the singular power over language of a lawyer,the physical force of a construction worker,the command over fellow workers of a surgeon,the,wheeling and dealing,transactions,of a businessman.,My energy is not spent in pursuing,climbing,achieving,conquering or,cornering,some goal or object.,16/136,译文,Digging,5,My energy is spent in encouraging,supporting,consoling and praising my children.,In teaching,the inner,rewards,come from without.,On any,given day,quite apart from teaching reading and,spelling,I bandage a cut,dry a tear,erase,a,frown,tape a torn doll and locate a long-lost boot.,The,day is really won through matters of the heart.,As,my students,groan,laugh,shudder,cry,exult,and,wonder,I do too.I have to be soft around the edges.,17/136,译文,Digging,6,A few years ago,when I was interviewing for an elementary-school teaching position,every principal told me with confidence that,as a male,I had an advantage over female applicants because of the lack of male teachers.,But in the next breath,they asked with a,hint,of suspicion why I chose to work with young children.I told them that I wanted to observe and contribute to the intellectual growth of a maturing mind.,What I really felt like saying,but didnt,was that I loved helping a child learn to write his name for the first time,finding someone a new friend,or sharing in the hilarity of reading about,Winnie the Pooh,getting so stuck in a hole that only his head and,rear,show.,18/136,译文,Digging,7,I gave that answer to those principals,who were mostly male,because I thought they wanted a“male response.This meant talking about intellectual matters.If I had taken a different course and talked about my interest in helping,children in their emotional development,it would have been seen as closer to a“female answer.I even altered my language,not once mentioning the word“love to describe what I do indeed love about teaching.My answer worked;every principal nodded,approving,ly.,19/136,译文,Digging,8,Some of the principals also asked what I saw myself doing later in my career.,They wanted to know if I eventually wanted to,go into,educational administration.Becoming a dean of students or a principal has never been one of my goals,but they seemed to expect me,as a male,to want to climb higher on the career stepladder.So I mentioned,that,at some point,I would be interested in working with teachers as a curriculum coordinator.Again,they nodded approvingly.,20/136,译文,Digging,9,If those principals had been female instead of,male,I wonder whether their questions,and my,answers,would have been different.My guess is,that they would have been.,21/136,译文,Digging,10,At other times,when Im at a party or a dinner and tell someone that I teach young children,Ive found that men and women respond differently.Most men ask about the subjects I teach and the courses I took in my training.,Then,unless they,bring up,an issue such as merit pay,the conversation stops.,Most women,on the other hand,begin the conversation on a more immediate and personal level,.They say things like“those kids must love having a male teacher or“that age is just wonderful,you must love it.Then,more often than not,theyll talk about their own kids or ask me specific questions about what I do.,Were then off and,talking shop,.,22/136,译文,Digging,11,Possibly,men would have more to say to me,and I to them,if my job had more of the,trappings,and benefits of more traditional male jobs.,But my job has no bonuses or promotions.No,complimentary,box seats at the ball park.No cab fare home.No drinking buddies after work.No briefcase.No suit.(Ties get stuck in paint jars.),No power lunches,.(I eat peanut butter and jelly,chips,milk and cookies with the kids.)No taking clients out for cocktails.The only place I,take my kids is to the playground.,23/136,译文,Digging,12,Although I could have pursued a career in law or business,as several of my friends did,I chose teaching instead.My job has benefits all its own.Im able to bake cookies without getting them stuck together as they cool,buy cheap sewing materials,take out splinters,and search just the right trash cans for useful,odds and ends,.Im sometimes called“Daddy and even“Mommy by my students,and if theres ever a lull in the conversation at a dinner party,I can always ask those assembled if theyve heard the latest riddle about why the turkey crossed the road.(He thought he was a chicken.),Main idea of the text,24/136,1.,About men;one mans kids,(Title),The title points to the two main themes of the passage:different ideas of maleness and a

5),31/136,Difficult sentences,8.,On any given day,(Line 3,Para 5),any given day:,any day you choose,32/136,Difficult sentences,9.,The day is really won through matters of the heart.,(Line 6,Para
