5 . Professor Smith was teaching his class. All the students in the class were listening to the lecture with great interest. But among those students, there was Nick, who was sitting quietly and in a bad mood.
The professor took notice of Nick on the first day but did not say anything. But when this went on for a week, he called Nick in his office after the class and asked, “You are depressed all the time. What is the matter?” Nick said with some hesitation, “Sir, something has happened in my past, due to which I remain troubled. I don’t know what to do.”
Professor called Nick at his house in the evening. When Nick arrived, the professor went to the kitchen and started making lemonade. He deliberately put more salt in the lemonade. Then he gave a glass of lemonade to Nick. As soon as Nick took a sip, due to the taste of excess salt, his mouth became sour. Seeing this, the professor asked, “What happened? Did you not like the Lemonade?” “No sir, this is not the case. Just a little excess salt in the drink.” Nick said, “Hey, now give me the glass. I will throw it away.” The professor reached out to get the drink from Nick. But Nick refused, saying, “No sir, just salt is more. If you add more sugar, the taste will be fine.” Upon hearing this, the professor became serious and said, “You are right. Now see, this lemonade is like your life. Just as salt cannot be taken out of the lemonade, similarly those bad experiences also cannot be separated from life. But by adding more sugar it can change the taste of lemonade.” Nick nodded and smiled in relief.

7 . The $1 million Global Teacher Prize has been awarded to an American teacher, who helped to make college education accessible to low-income, immigrant, and refugee (难民) pupils. Keishia Thorpe, an English teacher in Maryland, was selected from more than 8,000 teachers in 121 countries.
Ms. Thorpe teaches English to 12th-graders at the International High School Langley Park, where 95% of pupils are from low-income families. She redesigned their courses for the English department to make it culturally relevant to her pupils who are mostly from Africa, the Middle East, the Caribbean, and South America. As a consequence, her English language learners have shown a 40 percent increase in their reading.
Ms. Thorpe encouraged her pupils to apply for college, helped them with their applications and even obtained fully-funded scholarships. Between 2018 and 2019, She helped her senior pupils win more than $6.7 million in scholarships to 11 colleges, with which most of them did not have to pay for their education.
When it comes to the prize money, she decides to given less well-off pupils an opportunity of receiving a third level education. “Every person deserves the right to education and I want to be the person who champions that for them. I plan to donate the money to help students worldwide access higher education,” she said. “Students are the reason why I’m here, so I intend to use that to promote them and create a better future for them.”
Organized by UNESCO and first awarded in 2015, the Global Teacher Prize is an annual award to a teacher who has made an enormous difference to the profession. The winner of this year was announced at a virtual ceremony in Paris on November 10th, 2021.

9 . Miss Marquis was my mentor (导师) when I was 12 and she’s my mentor now as a teacher.
My family moved to the UK from Saudi Arabia in 2017. When I started school there, I didn’t have a great understanding of the English language. Thankfully, I had an amazing teacher called Miss Marquis who helped me get through it. She pushed me all the way and gave me the right guidance.
During my teacher training with ARK, I was given a place at Globe Academy in London as a math teacher. When I saw the head of the English department was Miss Marquis, my jaw (下巴) dropped. It was unbelievable.
I still can’t call her by her first name. The respect I have for her is still there. In one of the lessons I observed she was reading the same book we used in our GCSEs and it took me back to the days when I was being taught by her. You knew you could go to her and share your problems. At the same time, you would never mess about in her lesson. Misbehaving was simply not done.
My aim as a teacher is affected by her. Teaching is about the mark you make on other people’s lives. I’ve worked in a few different schools during my training but I chose ARK because it gives opportunities to children who may not be from wealthy backgrounds. I am trying to have an impact on these people.
It doesn’t matter how many books you read, and nothing can prepare you for your first lesson. I have read all the theories about how to manage behavior but a lot of them just go out of my head when I walk into the classroom because they’re not robots. They’re all unique individuals and you can’t control them. You need to put the work in and build relationships with the students.
1. When did the author get to know Miss Marquis?A.When he began school in a totally new place. |
B.When he worked as a guide at an English school. |
C.When he experienced difficult situations in ARK. |
D.When he arrived in Saudi Arabia with his family. |
A.Embarrassed. | B.Puzzled. | C.Amused. | D.Shocked. |
A.Cold and selfish. | B.Kind but strict. |

A.To be devoted to his/her teaching career. |
B.To be equipped with enough knowledge. |
C.To respect and encourage his/her students. |
D.To be well prepared for his/her first lesson. |
