As a teenager, I am often asked what I am going to be in the future. A lawyer? A doctor? Or a scientist? No, my ideal career is to be a teacher. One of the       for that is I want to be a teacher like Mr. Chen.

“Look! Do you know what it is? A-ha, it’s the      ! And it will always move around the sun.” Mr. Chen said and pointed to his head. He then touched the nose and      , “Can you tell me the name of this mountain? It is the highest mountain on Earth! What’s the       of it? Yes, it’s 8844.43 metres…” I’ll never forget my first geography lesson. He was       humorous that we all fell in love with his lessons      . It’s Mr. Chen who opened the door of geography for us.

Generally speaking, most of the teachers are strict       students and sometimes a little bit demanding（苛求的）, not so with Mr. Chen. He is a lighthouse, showing us the way to the treasure of knowledge. He is a friend and easy to get         with, always encouraging us to speak out loud without        our shyness and other disadvantages. He is an example, volunteering his time to students and other teachers.

One day I happened to meet him in the hospital. Seeing the cut on his arm, I realized he was donating his        . I was moved and was         another lesson, a lesson of love and devotion.

Every time I see my globe（地球仪）, it would        me of Mr. Chen. He is the most unforgettable teacher I have      met and he will always be. Someday I hope I am        to be a teacher like him.

Thank you, Mr Chen, thank you for making learning not a job but a joy.

Thank you for helping me to discover what I do best and to do it even       .

Thank you for understanding all of us and giving us the time and care each of us needs.
