That morning, I stepped into the classroom

题目内容：

That morning, I stepped into the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with seventy-five students who would be my English Literature class. Having taught infor seventeen years, I had noabout my ability to hold their attention and toimpress on them myfor the literature of my mother tongue.

As I entered the room, I was when the monitor shouted: “Stand up!” The entire class rose, and I was somewhatabout how to get them to sit down again. once that awkwardness was over, I quickly my calmness and began what I thought was an informed lecture, sure to gain their respect — perhapstheir admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which came from a sense of achievement.

I asked my students to keep as homework. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was graduallyby a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today.her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a theme. “Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historicalfor all the works we’ll study in class,” I complained. “Howthey say I didn’t teach them anything?”

It was a long term, and itbecame clear that my ideas about were not the same as those of my students. I thought a teacher’s job was to raisequestions and provide enough background so that students couldtheir own conclusions. My students thought a teacher’s job was to provideinformation as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!

, I benefited a lot, for my experience with my Chinese students has made me aAmerican teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.

答案解析：

我是一名在美国教了17年书的教师，信心满满的来中国教书。却发现由于文化的差异，我的教育理念和学生们的并不同。在和中国学生在一起的日子，我学会了处在不同的文化背景下，如何去教学生

小题1:A考查名词辨析 England 英格兰；America 美国；china 中国；Australia 澳大利亚。根据I also learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a better American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture,故选B

小题2:C考查名词辨析 worry 烦恼；idea 想法；doubt 怀疑；skill技巧。根据Having taught in the US for seventeen years，可知我并不怀疑我的能力，故选C

小题3:B考查名词辨析 profession 专业；admiration 钦佩；explanation解释；expression 表达。句意我对母语文学的赞赏给他们留下深刻的印象Impress on sb sth.此处指他确信能给学生留下深刻的印象，所以选B项。

小题4:D考查动词辨析 attracted 吸引；embarrassed令人尴尬；amused 令人愉快的的；shocked震惊。句意 当我走进教室，当班长喊起立时我很震惊。根据下文出现的once that awkwardness was over，当这种局促不安结束时，可推知当时作者是很震惊的，所以选D项。

小题5:A考查形容词辨析 puzzled 迷惑的；sure 确定的；worried着急的；curious 好奇的。句意 当全班起立时，我不怎的，很迷惑，是如何让他们坐下，be puzzled about 对。。困惑，符合情景。所以选A项。

小题6:C考查动词辨析 reminded 提醒；returned 返回；regained重新获得；recovered 恢复。but once that awkwardness was over提醒读者他开始见到那情景有点局促不安，到很快又重新获得平静calmness。所以Regain正确

小题7:B考查副词辨析 more 更多；even 甚至；yet然而；still仍然。句意当恢复平静后，我认为开始获得他们的尊敬甚至是敬佩。admiration是在respect基础上的递进，所以用even符合这一空，B正确

小题8:D考查名词辨析 discussion 讨论；notes 注意；compositions 作文；diaries日记。学生们写日记，我从中看出他们对我的看法 keep kiaries 记日记。所以选D项。

小题9:A考查动词辨析 replaced 代替；frightened 害怕；troubled麻烦；moved移动。句意 读到学生的日记，原来萦绕在我心头的自我好感很快褪色了，取而代之的是悲伤。Be replaced by...被...取代，所以A正确

小题10:B考查副词辨析 later 后来；perhaps 也许；somehow 不管怎么样；indeed确实、根据Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today以及her next lecture will be better学生对我的下一次课的一种期望，但也不肯定。Perhaps也许，是最佳答案

小题11:C考查形容词辨析 common 普通的；strong强壮的；similar 类似的；strange奇怪的。句意 每个同学都在日记中表达一个相似的想法，那就是他们没学到东西，或者一无所获。再根据Didn’t I teach them anything?可知他们表达得相似的主题所以C正确

小题12:D考查名词辨析 happenings 事件；characters 性格；development发展；background背景。根据all the works we’ll study in class以及I thought a teacher’s job was to raise interesting questions and provide enough background，可知我为他们说明了我们课上所学的文学作品的历史背景，故选D

小题13:A考查情态动词辨析 should 应该；need需要；will 将要；must 必须。句意 他们怎么能说我什么都没教他们呢？should表示说话人惊奇、愤怒、失望等情感，与前面学生和我的相反反映是吻合的故选A

小题14:D考查副词辨析 immediately 立刻地；certainly 必然；simply 仅仅；gradually 逐渐地。根据It was a long term以及my ideas about education were not the same as those of my students，可知我逐渐明白了，故选D

小题15:C考查名词辨析 admiration 钦佩；question 问题；education 教育；conclusion 结论；句意 我的教育理念和我的学生们不同，those 代替上文提到ideas ,所以选C项。

小题16:B考查形容词辨析 difficult 困难的；interesting 有趣的；essential 必要的；general 普遍的。在我看来，教师的工作就是提出有趣的问题并提供必要的背景知识，然后学生通过思考得出自己的结论。要启迪学生思考，问题应该要有吸引力，所以B正确

小题17:A考查动词辨析 draw 绘制，拉 得出；find 发现；search寻找；offer提供。draw a conclusion得出结论，为固定搭配 句意 我认为教师的工作就是提出一个有趣的问题，提供足够的背景，然后让学生自己得出结论

小题18:C考查形容词辨析 special 特殊的；standard 标准；exact 确切的；serious 严重的。而我的中国学生的观念是，老师应该直接将确切地知识信息教给他们，不是去自己摸索。后文的as directly and clearly as possible是提示，所以选C项。

小题19:B考查副词辨析 therefore 因此；however 然而；then然后；though虽然。虽然这中间我很纠结，但我也懂得了一些东西。这里有转折对比的意思。所以B正确

小题20:D考查形容词辨析 richer 富有的；happier幸福的；friendlier 友好的；better 好的。句意 我与我的中国学生的经历使我成为了一个更好的老师，一个知道在不同文化背景下如何教书的老师。根据knowing how to teach in a different culture所以 D是正确答案
