  I'd meant to go to Miros that day.I'd packed my bag and was ready.The motorboat   1   on time.The sky was cloudy, but the wind wasn't too strong for the two-hour   2  .I stood at my window, staring at the boat.Then I lost   3   of her, for an old lighthouse partly blocked my view of the harbour.A dozen passengers were   4   their way there.I was about to join them when a man's face   5   at the lighthouse window.

  This was strange, because the lighthouse had been empty, unused and   6   for thirty years.It was still stranger because I'd seen that face before.I couldn't think of it but it was,   7   had once been familiar to me.I opened my window and   8   across.

  “I know we’ve met before, but I can't remember where.”

  I   9   him to open his if he could and answer me.He did neither.The face behind the glass   10   still.Seeing him more   11   now, I knew he was not looking at me.He seemed to be looking upwards, at the clouds.How well I'd known that face, sometime, somewhere.

  I   12   again, “We met years ago.Was it in Athens in the 1950s? I used to live in Plaka.”

  He didn't reply nor give any   13   that he'd heard.I went back further, to   14   I was in the navy.“Perhaps we met at sea during the war,” and that thought at once   15   him to mind.Commander Leftis! He was Commander Leftis of course! How could I have forgotten! I'd saved his life once.But surely he…

  The motorboat   16   her bell.I turned my eyes.The wind had risen, but she was pulling   17  .Laughing, I called, “Now I’ve missed her, and it's your   18  , Commander.”

  As the boat drew away, the   19   at the window faded(逐渐消失).Once it was there, looking up, I could see the whites of the eyes.Then it was   20  

  Well, I didn't rush to the lighthouse.I knew that Leftis was dead.He died at sea in 1963 or 1964.But there's one other thing I ought to tell you:the motorboat never reached Miros.It was lost in a storm, with all the passengers.

  Many years ago my student asked me the question,“Mrs.Kindred, why do you teach?”Without taking time to reflect, I answered,“Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life.”Even though I was sincere, that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide.

  “Let me get this straight,”he said,“You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?”He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused.I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift.

  Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder.On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach:

  It's in my blood.My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990.She instilled(逐渐灌输)in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors for.

  Teaching is a way to make a difference.If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore.You can't have ripples without a“stone.”Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and that's what I strive to do.

  I genuinely love teenagers.

  I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years.Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes(洞坑)on the road of life, I want to do so.If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too.

  Teaching isn't for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.

(1)

D.

Because the answer was difficult to understand.

(2)

What do you think of the writer?

[  ]

A.

Stupid.

B.

Honest.

C.

Conservative(保守的).

D.

Polite.

(3)

According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?

[  ]

A.

The writer's mother has the greatest influence on her.

B.

The writer's answer made the student confused.

C.

In the writer's opinion, some people in the world are unfit to teach.

D.

(4)

A.

the writer was also a good teacher in school

B.

the writer often plays with her students beside a pond

C.

the writer devotes herself to teaching and her students

A student's silly question.

A confused student.
