To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your students, you must be ?　36　?—speaking, with a good, strong,?　37　? voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to ?　38　? what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

?　39　? a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class; he ?　40　? the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his ?　41　?,hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express his ?　42　?.Listen to him, and you will ?　43　? the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always ?　44　? according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't ?　45　 that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important ?　46　? between the teacher's work and the actor's. The ?　47　? has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the ?　48　? words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually ?　49　? beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem ?　50　? on the stage.?

A good teacher ?　51　? in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his ?　52　?:they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don't ?　53　? something, they will say no. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students, which is in his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must ?　54　? it as he goes along.

I have known many teachers who were fine ?　55　? in class but unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn't keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what another had written.

Is there anything more important than health? I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth(财富),” wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.　　     
Speaking about health, I can’t help telling you a funny story.　　
An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.　   
He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.　　
A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.　　
“But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”

A．didn’t smoke	B．has smoked so much
C．was a heavy smoker	D．began to learn to smoke

 

　　Why doesn’t the unemployment rate ever reach zero? Economists, who generally believe that supply tends to meet demand, have long thought about this question. Even in good times, i.e. not now, there are people who can’t find work. And even in bad times, i.e. now, there are job openings. With over 14 million people out of work and looking for a job, you would think every available job would be filled. But that’s not the case. Not now and not ever.

　　On Monday, the Nobel Prize committee awarded the prize for economics to the three scholars who have done the most to explain this phenomenon. Two of the winners are Americans, Peter Diamond of MIT and Dale Mortensen of Northwestern. The third winner is Christopher Pissarides, who teaches at the London School of Economics and was born on Cyprus.

　　Like most of economics, what they have found about why the jobless and ready-employers don’t find each other seems obvious. You have to find out there is job opening you are interested in. Employers need to get resumes （简历）. It takes a while for both employers and employees to make the decision that this is what they want. And these guys came up with a frame-work to study the problem of why people stay unemployed longer than they should and what can be done about it.

　　So what would today’s Nobel Prize winners do to solve the current problem of the unemployed? And does the awarding of the prize contribute to the politicians’ lowering joblessness?

　　Speaking from his north London home, Pissarides told The Associated Press the announcement came as “a complete surprise” though his work had already helped shape thinking on both sides of the Atlantic.

　　For example, the New Deal for Young People, a British government policy aimed at getting 18-24-year-olds back on the job market after long periods of unemployment, “is very much based on our work,” he said.

　　“One of the key things we found is that it is important to make sure that people do not stay unemployed too long so they don’t lose their feel for the labor force,” Pissarides told reporters in London. “The ways of dealing with this need not be expensive training – it could be as simple as providing work experience.”

 

1.According to the writer, which is true about finding jobs?

　　A. It is always difficult to find a job.

　　B. Everyone can find a job in good times.

　　C. Contrary to popular belief, it is easier to find a job in bad times.

　　D. It is possible to find a job even in times as bad as now.

 

2. What is it that leads to their winning the prize?

　　A. They have found the reason for unemployment.

　　B. They have put forward a set of ideas to deal with unemployment.

　　C. They have found out why people don’t want to be employed.

　　D. They have long studied the problem of unemployment.

 

3.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

　　A. Pissarides thinks his work surprising.

　　B. The work of Pissarides has influenced many economists.

　　C. Some of the winners’ ideas have been put into practice.

　　D. It is probable that unemployed young people in Britain benefit from Pissarides’ work.

 

4. According to Pissarides, _________ is effrctive in dealing with unemployment.

　　A. spending large sums of money on training

　　B. teaching some knowledge of economics

　　C. providing work experience

　　D. keeping people unemployed for some time
