高二英语完形填空专练
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 36 about my
ability to hold their attention and to 37 on them my
admiration for the literature(文学)of my mother tongue.
I was shocked when the
monitor shouted, “ 38 !” and the entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat 39 about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness(尴尬)was over, I quickly 40 my
calmness and began what I thought was a fact – packed lecture, sure to gain their respect – perhaps 41 their admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a (n) 42 of achievements.
My students 43 diaries. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually 44 by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, “Our
literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. 45 her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a 46 subject. “Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire
philosophical framework(哲学体系)of Western thought and laid the
historical 47 for all the works we’ll study in class,” I complained. “How 48 they say I didn’t teach them anything?”
It was a long term, and it 49 became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 50 of my students. I thought a teacher’s job was to raise 51 questions and provide enough
background so that students could 52 their own conclusions. My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide 53 information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!
54 , I also
learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a 55 American teacher,
knowing how to teach in a different culture.

Spotty had done more than simply __48__ Brownie
