I arrived in the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 75 students who would be my English Literature class. Having taught in the US for 17 years, I had no _21_ about my ability to hold their attention and to _22_ on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.

I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “_23_ !” and the entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat _24_ about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness(尴尬)was over, I quickly _25_ my calmness and began what I thought was a fact – packed lecture, sure to gain their respect – perhaps 26 their admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a (n) _27 of achievements.

My students _28  diaries. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually _29_ by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. _30_ her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a _31_ subject. “Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework(哲学体系)of Western thought and laid the historical _32_for all the works we’ll study in class.” I complained. “How _33_ they say I didn’t teach them anything?”

It was a long term, and it _34_ became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as _35_ of my students. I thought a teacher’s job was to raise _36_ questions and provide enough background so that students could _37_ their own conclusions. My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide _38_ information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!

_39  , I also learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a _40  American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.

Laughter and tears are part of living. But do you find enough time for laughter? I am not asking if you  21  lost of good times.   22  we should laugh during the happy times. But do you also laugh during the  23  times?
Eram Bombeck is known for her humorous books, but she wrote one that  24  a more serious topic:  25 in children. Erma talks with many children with cancer and learns  26  life lessons from them. She learns, for instance, that cancer survivors know how to  27  .
She   28  the experience of 15-year-old Jessica from Burlinton. Jessica’s leg was cut off at the knee because of cancer. She was learning to  29  a prosthesis（假肢）. Jessica tells about playing  30  . She kicked the ball  31 and it flew off in one  32  while her artificial leg flew into another. She fell on the  33  and laughed.
Jessica may not have laughed about her cancer, but she laughed about handling the  34  of it. And her laughter helped her a deal.

And like Jessica, her  39  to laugh helped her to deal with one of the most difficult thing a young person can endure-cancer.
Do you find plenty of  40  for laughter? You can…if you also find reasons to laugh during the especially difficult times.
Survivors know how to laugh. If you can laugh even when the going is rough, you’ll make it. And you’ll smile at the end.
