unlike the first graduation i attended as a young professoron that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues turned to me and said, graduation will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest time of your life at my inquiry, he answered, because the students you have gotten to know have to leaveas years went by, my previous confusion about my colleagues words no longer existedwhen i came across naughty students, i have had to rethink why i chose to be a teacherit obviously isnt the moneyonce a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if i wanted to have a changehe was working at nintendo corporationhis salary was higher than my current one, though i have more education and have worked for over a decadewith my programming skills, he said he could get me hiredi thanked him, but refused his kind offera few days before this current graduation, while working on final grades, i found a note a student had slipped in with her homeworkshe thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my class not about math, but about life would be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded awayas i finished reading, i remembered why i had become a teachernow, on this sunny graduation day, as i again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, i did so with renewed dedication （奉献） and a deeper sense of satisfaction i will always be grateful that i am a teacher56. hearing his colleagues description of graduation for the first time, the author aquite agreed with his colleague bwas very puzzledcthought it very funny dwas very sad57the computer science student called up the author because he awanted to inform the author of his present jobbtried to persuade the author to work

graduationdgive advice on how to be a good teacher60the reason why he earns less than the computer science student is that ahe was only a young professor bhe didnt do well in his workche taught his students more about life than mathdsalaries for different careers are differentbwhen a child is told he is “uncool”, it can be very painful. he may say he doesnt care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. but, these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending its not there.helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. if you say, “why are you worried about what other children think about you? it doesnt matter！”，children know that it does matter. instead, an active way may be best. you could say, “im going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”if a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. the teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. this is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. a teacher can also raise a childs popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. it even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.there are things that patents can do at home, too. be friendly when your child brings others home to play. encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider “super”. when you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends. what you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own. 61. a child who has been informed of being “uncool” may _. a. care nothing about it b. develop a sense of anger c. do something uncool purposely d. pretend to get hurt very much62. a teacher can help an unpopular

written by professor cullen. she wrote that i had a gift for story writing.i was proud that i achieved what i thought was impossible .for so long i believed i wasnt as good as i thought i was and that my talent was not enough to cover up my lack of wring skills .but this review proved that i was truly a good writer and that there was a future ahead of me in the field of fiction writing. the review
