He took Samuel Johnsons dictionary, Addisons essays, and many other literary wonders from the eighteenth century and made them funny, even at eight oclock in the morning. The thing that amazed me most was that the first time I read these works on my own some of them seemed dead, but the second time, after his explanation, I couldnt believe that I hadnt seen the humor. The stories and poems and plays were suddenly filled withhilariousmoments. I learned more from him than from any other teacher.My least favorite English teacher also made people laugh. Some students found him to be wonderfully funny. Many others did not. He asked us to keep journals. At the end of the six weeks I had a notebook full of bits and pieces about my ideas, short stories, reactions to what we had read, and so on. Our teacher announced that we would be grading each others journals. Mine was passed to Joe, who always behaved in a funny or silly way. He saw it fit to make a joke of and said, “This writing isnt fit to line the bottom of a birdcage.” Our teacher laughed at that funny remark. It hurt me so much that the anger from it has driven away my writing and teaching ever since.So what makes the difference? Humor is one of the most powerful tools teachers or writers have. It can build up students and classes and make them excited about literature and writing, or it can tear them apart. It is true that humor is either productive or self-defeating.21.The passage mainly discusses _.A. teaching B. literatureC. knowledge D. humor22.The underlined word “hilarious” in Paragraph 1 probably means _.A. inspiring B. tiringC. funny D. brilliant23.With his favorite English teacher, the writer found it most amazing that _.A. his teacher was very learnedB. his teacher was very humorousC. few were able to find humor in works by Johnson and othersD. the works by Johnson and Addison were very humorous24.The English teacher the writer disliked most _.A. was not able to make students laugh B. had no sense of humorC. didnt let his students do the grading D. hurt his students feelingsBChoosing where to live may be one of the biggest decisions youll make when you move to Sydney, but youll have plenty of help.Temporary arrival accommodationBefore you move to Sydney, we recommend that you book a temporary place to stay.

Yet, the most frightening thing of all about the night is that twice as many children are killed while out and about on Hallween compared to any other day of the year, according to a study by Safe Kids Worldwide. It can also be a worrying time for others, especially elderly people living alone. Bu many people think its just harmless fun.But is it harmless fun?Police forces across Britain are giving warnings about Halloween night. They are asking all those wishing to celebrate Halloween this year to respect those who dont want to join in.Some forces, like West Mercia Police, have produced “Sorry, No Trick or Treat” posters which can be downloaded from their website, and put up in windows. They want people to send them to the old or anyone who may be frightened by ghosts(鬼)knocking on their doors.A spokesman said: “Children should not call on houses where the posters are put up, neither should they call on strangers, as this can put young people at risk and also make some house owners anxious, especially those who are elderly or living alone.”The police want all trick or treaters to remember that disturbing other people or throwing objects at their homes or cars are all criminal offences(刑事罪). “What may start off as a bit of fun could end up with someone getting a criminal record,” they warn. “Parents may want to consider having a Halloween party at home, instead.”Kent Police are warning young people never to go into the home of someone they dont know-and to remember not to frighten people.Warwickshire Police are also warning that tricks may seem like harmless fun but can cause trouble to others. They say behaviour such as throwing eggs can quickly cross the line between being anti-social and causing criminal damage. This can result in fines of 2,500 for small offences.32.What has the study made by Safe Kids Worldwide found?A. Halloween brings people no funB.
