When I was in college, one of my professors told me, “Kids don’t care about how much you know until they know how much you care.” This has always been with me, and the longer I teach, the more I agree with him.
I’ve learned that many times what my students need most is to know that they are loved, and that someone cares about them and believes in them. When this happens, they feel safe to take risks and make mistakes. I always tell my students, “It’s OK to make mistakes. That’s how we learn.” Then, progress starts to happen, their confidence begins to grow, and they start believing in themselves.
Over the years, I have received many gifts from my students and their families. Most of them are handwritten “thank-you” notes. These simple notes are so meaningful. I have saved these notes over the years and have often taken them out to re-read them, especially on those challenging days when I need some encouragement.
My most unforgettable gift came from a student four years ago. She came in one morning with a huge smile on her face and gave me an apple and a pen (that didn’t work) with a hair tie wrapped (包裹) around it. That was my most memorable gift, because it broke my heart and encouraged me at the same time. Why? Because she didn’t have much, but she gave me what she had, and she did it happily! She knew that I cared about her, and in return, she wanted to find a way to show that she cared about me.
This gift reminded (提醒) me that the most important part of teaching is not found in any lesson plan, but it’s helping our students understand that they are loved. Our lessons become meaningful when students realize their lives have meaning. And that is why teaching can be so challenging and so meaningful.

6. According to Paragraph 2, what should teachers make students believe? A. It doesn’t matter to make mistakes. B. Teachers all like good students. C. Students shouldn’t make mistakes.
D. Their progress mainly depends on their confidence.

D. To show she didn’t really have much to give. 8. What does the author mainly want to tell us? A. Being thankful is really important.
B. Teaching can be very challenging.
C. Teachers should make their students feel loved. D. Developing students, confidence requires patience. C
When you speak English with the Irish people in Ireland, you may find sometimes what they are saying is confusing. Here are some key pieces of vocabulary for any English speakers that find themselves learning English as a foreign language in Ireland. The Lads
A “lad” in Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary means “a boy or a young man”，“a lively young man, especially one who is very interested in women” or “a person who works in a stable (马厩)”. And some men call their male (男性的) friends or coworkers “the lads”. However，Li Ireland, people use “lads” to mean any type of people. Your nephew and your aunt are also “the lads”. The Conditional Tense
The Irish people use the conditional tense frequently, but sometimes it seems misleading and unnecessary. The comment “He would be a good friend of mine.” leaves you thinking that something has happened. He would have been a good friend of yours if he hadn’t burnt your house down, hadn’t stolen your car ...? But no, it just means that he is a good friend. No conditional meaning is given. Your Man
The Irish people like calling people in conversations as “your man”，which is actually quite nice， compared with the more distant “that guy” that we used to use. If you are told that a man you have met once is “your man”, you will be very surprised the first time you hear it. Ye
“Ye” did not die with Shakespeare. The Irish people still use this form of “you”. “Ye”，as the plural form of “you”，is still used in many parts of Ireland. Yeah
The Irish people often respond (作出反应) to what someone is saying to them. This might be done with a nod, making a sound，saying “yes”， saying “oh”，etc. “Yeah” is commonly used in this way, and then there is a special “yeah” that is said while taking a breath. 9. What can we know about the Irish people? A. They like using the conditional tense. B. They often use grammar in a wrong way.
C. They like using the word “guy” to mean osiers. D. They like telling others if something bad happens.
10. What does the author mean by saying did not die with Shakespeare.”？ A. Shakespeare made “ye” popular. B. Shakespeare didn’t use “ye”. C. “Ye” is used widely in Ireland. D. “Ye” is still used today.
11. What can we learn about the Irish people in the last paragraph? A. They’re good listeners.
B. They hardly use body language.
C. They like taking a breath before speaking. D. They like repeating the word “yeah”.
D
Study hard. Get plenty of sleep. Eat a good breakfast. Each of these things can help students do their best on exams. Now scientists say another thing might also influence students’ test scores. Students in stuffier (通风不畅的) classrooms did worse on tests than students in buildings with fresher air, new research found.
Opening windows can help provide fresh air. Some buildings also use fans to bring in outdoor air. Each time someone breathes, he or she breathes out CO2. When rooms are stuffy, the level of C02 in those rooms can build up. A 2012 study showed that college students had more difficulty being concentrated on their learning when indoor CO2 levels were high. And other research has found that elementary school students in stuffier classrooms stayed homesick more often. In a different study, researchers examined the air quality in 100 fifth-grade classrooms. They found that in most classrooms, the air quality did not meet the standards. That research also showed that students who got to breathe the fresher air in school per-formed better on their tests.
These same research groups now find that better air is connected with better test scores, too. As part of the research, Ulla Haverinen-Shaughnessy and Richard Shaughnessy measured CO2 levels inside and out of 140 fifth-grade classrooms at 70 schools. The CO2 levels helped them know how much fresh air was running through each classroom. The quality of indoor air in each classroom was then compared to its students’ scores on a math test. Overall, the average score for this test was 2,286 points. But kids in classrooms with the best air quality scored about 144 points higher than students breathing the stuffiest indoor air. The study shows that air quality and test scores are really connected, but the influence is small.
12. The findings of the new research mainly show the importance of _________. A. hard work B. enough sleep C. fresh air D. healthy eating
13. What did the author want to show by mentioning a 2012 study? A. Most college students had to study in stuffy classrooms. B. High indoor CO2 levels do no good to students’ health. C. College students have difficulty studying stuffy classrooms. D. High indoor CO2 levels do no good to college students’ study.
14. What did the researchers find after examining the air quality in 100 fifth-grade classrooms? A. There were too many students in one class, B. Most of the classrooms had poor air quality.
C. Most of the students cared about indoor air quality. D. The air quality in those classrooms met the standards. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Many classrooms don’t have fresh air. B. Stuffy classrooms lead to many problems. C. Stuffy classrooms may cause low test scores.
D. Dirty classrooms may cause students，poor performance. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Homework gets you down? 16 The advice below can help you make good preparations for your homework, so you can finish your homework more effectively (有效地).
