I was the oldest of five children back in the 60’s. We lived in a nice little three-bedroom bungalow(平房)in Michigan. Mom and Dad worked so hard, yet always found the time to spend with us. The only place they could take five active children to was the drive-in (汽车影院)movies!
We always looked forward to going to the drive-in! Mom would fill a big bag with homemade popcorn. On the way there, Dad would make a special stop at the penny candy store, where we were all allowed to fill a little brown bag with all kinds of penny candy. We were so exited as we carried our treasures back to the car, knowing we couldn’t eat it until the cartoon began.
We would get there early, so that we could play on the playground, right under the big screen. As soon as it started to get dark, the screen lit up, and we would race back to the car to get our candy.
There were always two cartoons playing before the movie, like Felix the Cat, The Coyote, and Tom and Jerry, But what was just as exciting was the ticking clock advertisement for the refreshment stand, with dancing hot dogs, candy and ice cream. That came on right before the movie. It was all that five kids could hope for, and by then, stay awake for.
We would get home around 2 am, pretty late for us. Mom help?ed us drug ourselves and our pillows to our beds and dad carried in the little ones.
I was disappointed the day they closed the last drive-in in our town. It will always hold special memories for us—those days of penny candy.

What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher?I think the following would be generally accepted.
Firstly,the teacher's personality should be lively and attractive. This does not rule out people who are plain?looking,or even ugly,because many such people have great personal charm. 1..
Secondly,it is not merely desirable but essential for a teacher to have a capacity for sympathy,a capacity to understand the minds and feelings of children. 2.—not of what is wrong,but of the weaknesses and immaturity of children,which cause them to make mistakes.
Thirdly,I hold it essential for a teacher to be both intellectually and morally honest. This means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths and limitations,and will have thought about and decided upon the moral principles by which his life shall be guided. 3.. That is part of the technique of teaching,which demands that every now and then a teacher should be able to put on an act—to enliven(使生动)a lesson,correct a fault,or award praise.
A teacher must be capable of infinite patience. 4.,for we are none of us born like that.
Finally,I think a teacher should have the kind of mind which always wants to go on learning. 5.;there is always something more to learn about. There are three principal objects of study:the subjects which the teacher is teaching;the methods by which the subjects can best be taught to the particular pupils in the classes he is teaching;most importantly,the children,young people,or adults to whom the subjects are to be taught.
A.This,I may say,is largely a matter of self?discipline and self?training
B.Closely related to this is the capacity to be tolerant
C. Teaching is a job at which one will never be perfect
D.Children,especially young children,live in a world that is rather larger than life
E.There is no contradiction (自相矛盾)in my going on to say that a teacher should be a bit of an actor
F.But it does rule out such types as the over?excitable,sad,cold,and frustrated
G.There are two fundamental principles of British education today
