My New Teachers

1.They say that first impressions are very important.

2.My first impression of Mrs. Li was that she was nervous and shy.

3.I think perhaps she was, as it was her first lesson with us.

4.But now, after two weeks, the class really likes working with her.

5.She's kind and patient, and she explains English grammar so clearly that even I can understand it!

6.She avoids making you feel stupid!

7.I've always hated making mistakes or pronouncing a word incorrectly when I speak English,

8.but Mrs. Li just smiles, so that you don't feel completely stupid!

9.I think maybe she goes a bit too slowly for the faster students, but for me it's wonderful!

10.I feel I'm going to make progress with her.

11.I'd guess that Mrs. Chen is almost sixty.

12.She's very strict—we don't dare to say a word unless she asks us to.

13.She's also very serious and doesn't smile much.

14.When she asks you to do something, you do it immediately!

15.There are a few students in our class who keep coming to class late but they're always on time for Mrs. Chen's lessons!

16.Some of our class don't like her, but most of us really appreciate her because her teaching is so well organised and clear.

17.And a few students even admit liking her!

18.During scientific experiments, she explains exactly what is happening and as a result my work is improving.

19.Physics will never be my favourite lesson, but I think that I’ll do well in the exam with Mrs Chen teaching me.

20.Mr. Wu’s only been teaching us for two weeks and he’s already very popular.

21.I think this is because he really enjoys teaching Chinese literature ----

he loves it, in fact!

22.He’s got so much energy, this is one class you do not fall asleep in!

23.He’s about 28, I think, and is rather good-looking.

24.He talks loudly and fast, and waves his hands about a lot when he gets excited.

25.He’s really amusing and tells jokes when he thinks we’re getting bored.

26.Even things like compositions and summaries are fun with Mr. Wu.

27.I respect him a lot.

我的新老师

1.人们常说第一印象很重要。

2.李老师给我留下的第一印象是既紧张又胆怯。

3.我想，可能她就是这样，因为这是她给我们上的第一节课。

4.但是，过了两周了，全班学生真的喜欢上她的课。

5.她非常和蔼，又有耐心，英语语法解释得如此清楚，连我都能够明白！

6.她避免让人感到愚笨！

7.讲英语时，我总是憎恶出错或者是憎恶发音不正确，

8.但是，李老师只是笑一笑，因此，你不会感到完全愚笨！

9.我想可能对于好学生来说她的课进行得有点慢，但对我来说，真是太棒了！

10.我觉得我跟着她学习肯定将取得进步。

11.我猜想陈老师几乎快60岁了。

12.她很严格――――除非她让我们讲话，我们一句话也不敢说。

13.她还很严肃，很少微笑。

14.当她要求你做某事时，你就马上去做！

15.陈老师的课，我们班几位不断迟到的学生，总是准时上陈老师的课。

16.我们班有的同学不喜欢她，但大多数同学都很欣赏她，因为她的课讲得很清楚、教学组织得又好。

17.一些学生甚至承认喜欢她！

18.在做科学实验时，她对发生的现象解释得很准确，因此，我在实验方面在取得进步。

19.物理绝对不是我最喜欢的科目，但我想由陈老师教我，我会考出好成绩。

20.吴老师仅仅教过我们两个礼拜，他已经很受欢迎了。

21.我想这是因为他的确喜欢教中国文学---实际上，他喜爱中国文学！

22.他精力是那样充沛，上他的课，你不会想睡觉（不会感到困倦）！

23.我想他大约28岁，长得很帅。

24.他讲话语速快、声音洪亮，当讲到兴奋的时候，不时挥手。

25.他上课真很有趣，当他认为我们疲倦的时候，就给我们讲笑话。

26.即使是象作文和总结这样的事情，吴老师也搞得很有趣。

27.我很尊敬他。
