In New York,on a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of a train station.He was playing his violin.His music was so great that many people put money into his?? ?? .

The next day ,the young artist came to the ?? ?? place, and played the violin as usual. Different from the day before,he took out a piece of paper and put ? ?? on the ground.The paper read ,“Last night ,a man named George Sang put an important thing into my hat ?? ?? .Please come to get it soon..”

After  about half an hour,a(an) ??? ?? man there in a hurry, “Oh ,it’s you . You did come here.”The young violinist asked calmly, “Are you Mr George Sang?” “Yes!Yes!”Then the violinist asked , “Did you lose something?” “Lottery(彩票).It’s the most valuable lottery in my 70 years of life,”said the man.

The violinist ? ? a lottery ticket. George Sang’s name was on it, so the violinist? ? ? it to him.

Later someone asked the violinist, “Since you ?? ?? play the violin every day to make your tuition (学费)in the university, why didn’t you keep the lottery ticket for yourself?”

The violinist said, “Although  I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty, I won’t be happy forever.”

Through our lives , we can get a lot and lose so much . But being ?? ?? should always be with us. If we act in a dishonest way, we may ?? ?? in a short period. However, from the long-term view, we will be a loser.

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, pleasant 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 doesn’t 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.
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 take an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand anything, they say so. The teacher can’t learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along.
I have known many teachers who are fine actors in class but are unable to take part in a stage-play because they can’t keep strictly to what another has written.
