a. forcing one to smile could make one feel better b. wearing a fake smile could worsen ones mood c. always smiling could improve ones performance d. wearing a fake smile could help one free from sadness51. the finding of the research might serve as a warning to _. a. men b. employees c. customers d. bosses52. according to dr. brent scott, _. a. most bus drivers have to wear“fake smiles” b. “fake smiles”workers work better than usual c. “fake smiles”might lead to lower productivity d. bosses know the negative effect of forced smiles53. it can be inferred from paragraph 4 that _. a. pleasant memories are associated with positive feelings b. men suffer more from fake smiling, compared to women c. women should smile a lot when faced with new challenges d. few employers know how to increase the productivity of their staff54.“deep acting”is helpful to women in that _. a. they forget their trouble b. they will behave normally c. they become more talkative d. their moods are getting betterdin 1974, after filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer, i took what i could get - a teaching job at what i considered a distant wild area : western new jersey. my characteristic optimism was alive only when i reminded myself that i would be doing what i had wanted to do since i was fourteen- teaching english.school started, but i felt more and more lonely as if i were in a foreign country. was this rural area really new jersey? my studies took a week off when hunting season began. i was told they were also frequently absent in late october to help their fathers make hay on the farms. i was a young woman from new york city, who thought that” make hay while the sun shines. ”just meant to have a good time.but, still, i was teaching english. i worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. and then there was my sixth-grade class -seventeen boys and five girls who were only six years younger than me. i had a problem long before i know it. i was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher . i wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love of the written word. the students wanted to throw spitballs and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.in college i had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior . so i did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as i gave my students positive attention. it sounds reasonable, but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seem reasonable. by the time my boss, who was also my taskmaster ,known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.my boss sat in the back of the room. the boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. i just pretended it all wasnt happening, and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. my boss, sitting in the back of the room, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. after twenty minutes he left, silently. visions of unemployment marches before my eyes.i felt mildly victorious that i got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period i had to face him. i wondered if he would let me finish out the day. i walked to his office, took a deep breath, and opened the door.he was sitting in his chair, and he looked at me long and hard. i said nothing. all i could think of was that i was not an english teacher; i had been lying to myself, pretending that everything was fine.when he spoke, he said simply, without accusation,” you had nothing to say to them.”“you had nothing to say to them. ” he repeated ,”no wonder theyre bored. why not get to the meat of the literature and stop talking about symbolism. ”talk with them, not at them. and more important, why do you ignore their bad behavior? ”we talked. he named my problems and offered solutions. we role played. he was the bad student, and i was the forceful, yet ,warm teacher。as the year progressed, we spent many hours discussing literature and ideas about human being and their motivation. he helped me identify my weakness and my strengths. in short, he made a teacher of me by teaching me the reality of emersons words;” the secret to educat
