故答案为B项。

17．A 从上文的“a great interest in my marketing class”来看，此处应该是与市场销售有关，所以选business。

18．C 从下文销售蜡烛的过程来看，作者非常艰难，所以对作者来说销售蜡烛挣钱是一个挑战，而不是机会。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Nowadays，being a teacher is a difficult yet rewarding job. Not everyone
is suited for teaching. Aside from having love for working with children，teaching is a career like no other.
An effective teacher is not only the master of his/her subject area, but also an educator with the strong emotional backbone. Daily, the teacher communicates with students from different backgrounds, with different learning skills，and with different emotions.
The teacher will set high expectations of all students and never give up the underachievers. The teacher will always be available to students whether it's before classes begin or after school. He/She will also have additional work for students need extra assistance in learning the subject.
An effective teacher will contrast his/her lesson with the material so that students will look at the material in various ways. This will ensure that students remain on tas k during the entire class session. Being asked open­ended questions, students will remain interested and not be bored. Difficult as this may sound, it can be achieved.
The teacher will always be an enthusiastic, organized, and caring individual, and will make learning fun. He/She will not simply write the assignment on the board，and tell students “There's your assignment. Get to work！” and proceed to sit at his/her desk for the remainder of the period. Instead, the teacher will add games or use media in the learning process; in this way, students will crave (渴望) learning.
Our children need support, guidance and proper instruction so that they will succeed in life, not only in the career they choose, but also as the person they become.
