Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage 2

Here I want to try to give you an answer to the question: What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher? Probably no tw o persons would draw up exactly similar lists, but I think the following would be generally accepted.

First, the teacher’s personality should be lively and attractive. This does not rule out people who are physically plain, or even ugly, because many such have great personal charm. But it does rule out such types as the over-excitable, melancholy, frigid, sarcastic, cynical, frustrated, and overbearing. I would say too, that it excludes all of dull or purely negative personality. I still stick to that school children probably “suffer more from bores than from brutes.”

Secondly, it is not merely desirable but essential for a teacher to have a genuine capacity for sympathy

-- a capacity to tune in to the minds and feelings of other people. Closely related with this is the capacity to be tolerant – not of what is wrong, but of the frailty and immaturity of human nature which induce people to make mistakes.

Thirdly, I hold it essential for a teacher to be both intellectually and morally honest. It means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths, and limitations, and will have thought about and decided upon the moral principles by which his life shall be guided. There is no contradiction with that a teacher should be a bit of an actor. That is part of the technique of teaching, which demands that every now and then a teacher should be able to put on an act -- to enliven a lesson, correct a fault, or award praise. Children, especially young children, live in a world that is rather larger than life.

Finally, a teacher should have the kind of mind which always wants to go on learning. There are three principal objects of study: the subject, the methods, and the children. The two cardinal principles of British education today are that education is education of the whole person, and that it is best acquired through cooperation between the teacher and the learner.

A.  Sadness.                                   B. Excitability.

C. Depression.                               D. Coldness.
