Question

【題目】There is a story told about how Neil set about winning over one particular boy. The boy was always causing trouble and clearly regarded all teachers 【1】 a hostile eye. On one occasion, Neil, out taking a 【2】 had just rounded a comer when he came across the boy playing on his own. The boy, not noticing he was no longer 【3】，picked up a stone and threw it through one of the school windows. Turning, he saw Neil. Instead of finding himself 【4】 at angrily as he expected, the boy was 【5】 to see Neil bend down, pick up a stone and hurl it at another window. The boy had to 【6】 —to get the window repaired, so did Neil. 【7】 he thought this a small price to pay for 【8】 a bond between himself and the boy, whose 【9】 improved afterwards，

Neil was a remarkable character who knew just when to be 【10】 and just when to adopt a lighter touch when handling children. Not everyone is so 【11】 . Willie Russell, the 【12】，likes to talk about the time when he had freshly 【13】 from teacher training college and had just begun to work as a teacher. On his first day at the school he was left to do playground duty on his own, rather a( n) 【14】 experience for one so new to the job. Surrounded by children at morning break, he turned to see one of the children thro-wing a stone at a school window. When the boy saw that he had been 【15】 by a teacher, his face fell. 【16】 for this boy, Russell remembered the story about Neil. Stooping down he picked up a stone and propelled(投擲）it through another window. Turning to smile proudly at the boy, his satisfaction was suddenly shattered by the sound of dozens of windows being 【17】 by flying stones.

Unfortunately he had failed to take into account the difference between his 【18】 and the one which Neil had faced, namely that he and the boy were not alone. It was at this point in his career that Russell decided that perhaps he was not quite cut out to be a teacher. Deciding after this that he was not suited to teaching he left to 【19】 playwriting. Most of his plays are very imaginative and 【20】 . A bit like this story,in fact.

【解析】文中的尼爾是一位很會(huì)駕取學(xué)生心理的老師：面對(duì)一故意打破學(xué)校玻璃的頑劣男孩，他仿效其行為從而和對(duì)方拉近了距離，進(jìn)而對(duì)其施加影響，改善了他的行為。而羅素在處理類似的情況時(shí)卻遇到不同的結(jié)果……

【1】惹是生非的學(xué)生常會(huì)用敵意的眼光看老師。

【2】從下文尼爾轉(zhuǎn)過拐角可知他是在散步。

【3】尼爾在場(chǎng)，那個(gè)男孩不再是獨(dú)自一人了。

【4】從下文得知尼爾沒像男孩預(yù)料的那樣對(duì)他大聲喊叫。

【5】看到老師也撿起石頭硒玻璃，男孩當(dāng)然很吃驚。

【6】砸壞玻璃當(dāng)然要自掏腰包賠付。

【7】從下文看此處應(yīng)是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

【8】用一塊玻璃作為代價(jià)和男孩建立了紐帶，花費(fèi)當(dāng)然不高。

【9】應(yīng)該是男孩的品行在以后得到了提高。

【10】尼爾是位很出色的老師，對(duì)待學(xué)生他知道何時(shí)應(yīng)該嚴(yán)厲。firm此處意為“嚴(yán)厲的”。

【11】從下文可知，并非所有人都像尼爾那樣成功。

【12】從文章最后幾句得知羅素改行創(chuàng)作戲劇，可知他是個(gè)劇作家。

【13】該空應(yīng)是從教師進(jìn)修學(xué)院畢業(yè)。

【14】值班維持操場(chǎng)秩序?qū)�剛畢業(yè)的老師來說具有挑戰(zhàn)性。

【15】男孩看到被老師認(rèn)出，臉色陰沉了下來。spot此處意為“認(rèn)出。”

【16】羅素記起了尼爾的故事，對(duì)男孩來說是個(gè)幸事：他可以免受懲罰。

【17】出乎羅素意料的是，數(shù)扇窗戶被學(xué)生的飛石擊中。

【18】羅素沒有考慮到當(dāng)時(shí)他和尼爾遇到的情況不同。

【19】認(rèn)為自己不適合當(dāng)老師，后來他轉(zhuǎn)行從事戲劇創(chuàng)作。

【20】他的大部分戲劇富有想象力，也很滑稽可笑，有點(diǎn)像本篇故事所述。
