George Banks was a clever journalist. He worked for a good newspaper, and he liked arguing very much. He argued with anybody, and about anything. Sometimes the people whom he argued with were as clever as he was, but often they were not.

He did not mind arguing with stupid people at all: he knew that he could never persuade them to agree, because they could never really understand what he was saying, and the stupider they were, the surer they were that they were right; but he often found that stupid people said very amusing things.

At the end of one argument which George had with one of these less clever people, the man said something which George has always remembered and which has always amused him. It was, “Well, Sir, you should never forget this: there are always three answers to every question: you answer, my answer, and the correct answer.”

1. It seemed to George as if ________.

A. it was more interesting to argue with as clever people as he was

B. it was more interesting to argue with clever people than with stupid ones

C. it was more interesting to argue with stupid people than with clever ones

D. it was no good arguing with stupid people 

2 From the passage we can conclude that________.

A. George did nothing but argue with others

B. George was a man full of sense of humour

C. George always won the arguments

D. What George said was difficult to understand 

3. Why didn’t George mind arguing with stupid people? Because ________

A. he wanted to win the arguments

B. he wanted to make the arguments more heated

C. stupid people could be easily fooled

D. what stupid people said could often give him greater pleasure 

4. What one of the stupid people said at the end of one argument could be considered very________.

  Come to the conference well-prepared.If the student is having a hard time with their work, show the parents their grades and samples of their work.  3  .If the student is misbehaving, then you should make detailed notes of their behaviour before the conference.Bring these notes to the conference so that parents can understand how their children are behaving.

    4  .For example, you might say something about their creativity, their handwriting, their sense of humour, or make some other comment.Instead of restarting the problem you've already discussed, end with a comment that offers hope for the future.You could say something like,“Thanks for meeting with me today.I know that working together we can help Johnny succeed.”Some teachers may have to deal with an angry parent at some point.  5  .Much anger can be avoided if the parents are informed.Don't get excited yourself and make sure you avoid shouting.

B.Try to think of something nice to say about the students that have problems.

C.At the end of the conference, you should make a conclusion.

D.A parent teacher conference can have a huge influence on a student's work and behaviour.
