While I was waiting to go into university, I saw in a newspaper a teaching job wanted at a school about ten miles from where I【小题1】. Because I was in great need of  【小题2】and wanted to do something useful, I applied(申请).
Three days later, a letter【小题3】. It asked me to see the【小题4】at Croydon. It proved to be a (n) 【小题5】journey —a train to Croydon station, a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of【小题6】a quarter of a mile. As a result I arrived there, feeling too hot to be nervous. Clearly, the principal【小题7】opened the door. He was【小题8】and round.
“The school” he said, “has a group of twenty-four boys between seven and thirteen.”
I should have to teach all the 【小题9】except art, which he taught himself. I should have to divide the class into 【小题10】groups and teach them at three different  【小题11】, and I was not【小题12】at the thought of teaching maths —a subject which I didn’t do very well in at school. It was 【小题13】that I had to teach them on Saturday afternoon 【小题14】most of my friends would be 【小题15】themselves at that time.
Before I had time to ask about my salary(薪水), he got up to his feet. “Now,” he said. “You’d better meet my wife. She is the one who really runs this school.”
