Having taught in the US for 17 years, I had no 1 about my ability to hold their attention and to 2 on them my admiration for the literature（文学）of my mother tongue.I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “ 3 !” and the entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat 4 about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness（尴尬）was over, I quickly 5 my calmness and began what I thought was a fact packed lecture, sure to gain their respect perhaps 6 their admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which es from a (n) 7 of achievements.My students 8 diaries. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually 9 by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didnt teach us anything today. 10 her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a 11 subject. “Didnt I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework（哲学体系）of Western thought and laid the historical 12 for all the works well study in class,” I plained. “How 13 they say I didnt teach them anything?”It was a long term, and it 14 became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 15 of my students.
