To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor, you must be able to1 the attention and interest of your students, you must be a 2 speaker, with a good, strong, 3 voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 4 what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.
5 a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still 6 his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his 7 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanation, and his face to express feeling. Listen to him, and you will 8 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 9 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t10 that he will indeed be able to act 11 on the stage, for there are very important 12between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 13 words each time he plays a certain part,14 his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually 15 before hand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 16 on the stage. A good teacher 17 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 18:they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t obey something, they will say no. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of the students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 19 it as he goes along.
I have known many teachers who were fine 20 in class but unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline(规定): they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
要成为一名优秀的教师,你需要具备某些好演员的天赋.你必须能hold住观众(学生)的注意力和兴趣点.语言要清晰,声音要宏亮、悦耳,而且收放自如.而且为了让你所传授的东西更好地被理解,你应该能把你它表演出来.
观察一个好老师,你会发现他不会坐在他的学生面前.他会整节课都站着,他来回走动,用他的胳膊,手,手指,来帮助他表达他所教授的东西.而且运用他的表情来表达他的感受.倾听一个好老师,你会发现,他的音量、音色、音符,总是会随着他所讲的东西起起伏伏.
事实上,一个好老师有一些一个好演员所具备的天赋并不意味着他也确实能在舞台上起作用的,因为教师的工作和演员的工作有很重要的差别.演员要讲的话他已经了然于胸,每次他扮演一个角色,都要把既定的台词完整的复读出来,甚至连他的动作、运用声音的方式都被预先定下来了.他不得不做的,只是小心地把这些学会的台词和动作在舞台上表演得更自然而已. 一个好老师所要做的就完全不一样.他的“观众”积极地参与了他的“剧本”:他们提问和回答问题,他们遵从命令,如果他们不理解什么,他们也会这样说.这样一来,教师不得不去迎合他

的“观众”的需求.他不能背下他的“台词”,但必须在他“表演”的时候创造它.
我认识很多能在课堂上表演的很好但是却不会上台表演的老师,因为他们不能严格遵守别人所写的台词.

答案:B;A;D;A;C;D;D;A;A;D;C;B;B;D;C;A;B;C;A;C 解析:
(1) B 根据语意:要做一名优秀教师,你需具备一个优秀演员的天赋,你必须能引起学生们的注意力和兴趣,且使之持久。(2) A 与下句中a good,strong…voice相一致的应是clear。(3) D pleasing意为“愉快的,使人高兴的”。 (4) A 根据教学内容进行动作表演,学生就更清楚明了了。(5) C listen跟宾语时,其后要接to;look表有目的地看时,应和at连用;observe语法正确,但意义过于严肃;只有watch在语法、语意上均正确。(6) D。(7) D 从上文可知,教师借助动作表演(打手势)来表情达意,解释教学内容。(8) A listen to表示“听”的动作,hear则表示“听”的结果。这里指听到教师上课时悦耳动听的讲课声。(9) A 声调随讲课内容的变化而变化。talk指的是“讲课”。(10) D mean意为“意味着”。(11) C act为实义动词,应用副词修饰,首先可排除A、B
项,badly意为“恶劣地,非常地”。actively意为“活跃地”。三者均与题意不符。(12) B There are differences between … and …意为“……与……之间有区别(不同之处)”。(13) B 演员只需将事先背好的台词说出来就可以了,也就是说演员所说的话必须和剧本台词是相同的,故用the same。(14) D 台词、甚至是演员表演时的动作、运用嗓子的方法都常常是提前安排好的。even在此处表递进关系。(15) C fix在此意为“牢记”。(16) A 演员们所做的是把所准备的台词、动作在舞台上自然地表演出来。(17) B 教师的工作与演员的表演是截然不同的。这里与上文形成对比。(18) C take an active part in意为“在……中起着积极的作用”。因本段讲的是教师与学生,故用class。(19) A 教师不可能把所有要讲的内容全背下来,但必须根据教学内容创造性地教学。(20) C 由语意可判断出。
