A new term has begun. Teachers are   36   about the fact that new students are not easy to handle. They like to bring cellphones and MP3 players to school. What is   37   ，some students even use cellphones to do with out-of-class matters in class，or sometimes just for fun. Some other students listen to MP3 players when they are having a lesson that they are not interested in.

    Are these new students really that    38   ? 'Yes，' says Delaney Kirk，a professor at Drake University.   39   she adds it's not their fault. Instead， the things that they bring into school---cellphones，MP3 players and so on --- and the teachers are to blame. Kirk first began thinking about students' manners six years ago. ‘I had my first class in which students were sleeping or talking to each other. It seemed that learning well   40   nothing to do with them，' she says. 'At first，I got worried about this，but then I said to myself， "You're teaching   41  ，and you need to  manage this…These students need to know more about manners. It's time to help them develop some good    42   . They shouldn't waste time doing nothing when they are young. Sooner or later，they might regret the time they have wasted."'

    Kirk also    43    a list of suggestions to help teachers better manage their classes. The following are among her suggestions：

    ●  Tell students how they will benefit by taking the class. On the first day of class，emphasize its importance    44   giving some homework that students must turn in next time.

    ●  Do not allow them to bring cellphones and MP3 players to the class at all.

My class will put on a short play in English at the end of the year. Yesterday our English teacher gave us copies of the play.
“Choose a character in the play whom you’d like to be, ”she told us. “This afternoon learn a few lines of this part for homework. Then tomorrow you can say those lines in front of the class. Ill decide who play each part.”
I wanted to have one of the bigger parts in the play, so I choose the part of the king. He has a lot of lines to say. I learned them by heart.
This morning in our English lesson we had to say our lines. I acted the part of the king. When I said my lines, I put a lot of expression into my acting. I thought I acted really well.
Everyone in the class read a part and then the teacher who would play each part.
Many of the students in my class couldn’t act at all. They couldn’t even read without making lots of mistakes. I was sure that I would get a big part in the play.
However, the teacher gave me the part of a soldier. He has only one line. It is, “Yes, sir!”
I was very disappointed. At the end of the lesson I went up to her and asked her why I had such a small part.
“You put too much expression in your acting,” she said. “Good acting is not big acting. It is acting the audience can believe in.”
I think I know what she means.
