Surprisingly, at our last night in Florence, Italy, we ate at a Mexican restaurant. We packed our bags and the next morning we headed for Rome. Along the way, we stopped in San Gimignano and Siena. San Gimignano was a hilly town with beautiful scenery. We walked along the streets, took pictures, and headed for Siena. We found that Siena was the most beautiful place we had visited. Besides the beautiful scenery, the town offered many restaurants and hand-made pottery(陶器). Siena proved to be one of the best places to buy gifts for family members at home.
We arrived in Rome late that night and started the next morning with a full-day tour of the city. Our guide was a local who knew about everything there, everything about Rome and its history. We hit all the major sites—the Coliseum, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, the Vatican, plus
much more—and were attracted by all of them. The history of Italy was much more obvious in Rome pared to the other cities we had visited.
After our long day in Rome, we headed back to the hotel and left for America at 5: 30 the next morning. Our homeing was both bitter and sweet—we all missed our families and friends, but Italy had bee a second home. We loved everything about Italian culture and history, and had truly enjoyed every minute of our trip. It was an enriching experience. Though it was an art trip, we gained much more knowledge. Our job now is to use what we learned and the photographs we took to create an art project for the spring art show.

Sixty-year-old grandmother, Fiona McFee, is going to stop working next year and she decided to realize a childhood dream and sail around the coast of Scotland in a small boat.

To 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
doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. 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 don’t 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 bee 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 teacher’s work and an actor’s.
51. The word “audience” in the fourth paragraph means ____ .
A. students
B. people who watch a play
C. people who are not on the stage
D. people who listen to something
52. A good teacher ____ .
A. knows how to hold the interest of his students
B. must have a good voice
C. knows how to act on the stage
D. stands or sits still while teaching
53. In what way is a teacher’s work different from an actor’s ?
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 needn’t
C. no memory work is needed for the students
D. the students must take part in their teachers’ plays
55. 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 .
