, a. a policemanb. a lawmakerc. a guide d. a lawyerdto be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear. watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class： he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality (音色) and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. the fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teachers work and the actors. the actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand (预先). what he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. a good teacher works in quite a different way. his audience takes an active part in his play： they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont understand something, they say so. the teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. he cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along. i have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.50. what is the text about ? a. how to become a good teacher. b. what a good teacher should do outside the classroom. c. what teachers and actors could learn from each other. d. the similarities(相似处) and differences between a teachers work and an actors.51. the word “audience” in the fourth paragraph means _ . a. studentsb. people who watch a play c. people who are not on the staged. people who listen to something52. a good teacher _ . a. knows how to hold the interest of his studentsb. must have a good voice c. knows how to act on the staged. stands or sits still while teaching53. in what way is a teachers work different from an actors ? a. the teacher must learn everything by heart . b. he knows how to control his voice better than an actor . c. he has to deal with unexpected situations . d. he has to use more facial expressions .54. the main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that _. a. students can move around in the classroom b. students must keep silent while theatre audience neednt c. no memory work is needed for the students d. the students must take part in their teachers plays55. which of the following is true ? a. teachers have to learn by heart what they are going to say in class . b. a teacher cannot decide beforehand what exactly he is going to say in class . c. a teacher must speak louder than an actor . d. a teacher must have a better memory than an actor .第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分。共 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出正确的填入空白处。选项中有两项为多余选项 hi, jill is speaking. this is sam. hi, jill. 56 im very well, but very busy. although i have finished all the exams, i still have a lot of other things to do. 57 i also have to help my cousin with her english. 58 im sorry, but i cant. ive promised to meet a friend. what about the weekend?
