A new term has begun. Teachers
are 41 about the fact that new students are not easy to deal
with. They like to bring cell phones and MP3 players to school. What is worse ,
some students even use cell phones 42 out-of-class matters
in class, or sometimes just for fun. Some 43 students listen
to MP3 players when they are having a lesson that they are not interested in.
Are these new students really
that 44 ? “Yes.”
Says Delaney Kirk, a professor（教授） at Drake University. But she adds it’s
not their fault. 45 , the teachers should be blamed(責備). Mrs Kirk first began
thinking about students’ manners six years ago. “I had my first class in which students were sleeping or talking
to each other. It seemed that learning well had nothing to do with them.” She says. “At first, I got worried about
this.” But then I said to 46 , “You’re giving lessons, and you need
to manage this kind of situation. These students need to know more about
manners. It’s time to help them develop some
good 47 . They shouldn’t waste time doing nothing when
they are young. Sooner or later, they may regret(后悔) the time they 48 .”
Mrs Kirk also makes a list of
suggestions to help teachers better manage（駕馭） their classes. The following are among her
suggestions:
l On the first day of class, tell
students how they will benefit(受益)by taking the class and the importance 49 listening
carefully in class.
l Do not allow them to bring
cellphones or MP3 players to the class at all.
l Tell them 50 to use cell
phones or MP3 players properly(適當?shù)?..
