When I was young, I wanted to be a teacher if I grew up，simply because I wanted to write on the chalkboard！My teachers seemed to be the 36 printers，curving their letters just so，and I wanted to do it 37 ！Now，after "higher education"，and three 38 career paths，I have come back to want to be a 39 ，but my reasons have changed.

The teacher that had the most 51 on me had the best fame in the school. She was strict，and she did demand a lot, but she was able to show us it was ___52___she cared for us.

In eighteen thirty, only a few miles away from what is now the great city of Cincinnan, Ohio, lay a 36 and a
lmost endless forest.
The area had a few settlements 37 by people of the frontier. Many of them had already left the area for settlements further 39 the west. 
But among those 40 was a man who had been one of the first people to arrive there.

His little log house had a single door. Directly 45 was a window. The window was boarded up（堵住）. No one could remember a(n) 46 when it was not. And no one knew why it had been 47 . I imagine there are few people living today who ever knew the 48 of that window. But I am one, as you shall 49 .

His hair and long, full beard were white. His gray, 52 eyes were sunken. His face was wrinkled. He was tall and thin with drooping shoulders—like someone with many 53 .
I never saw him. These 54 I learned from my grandfather. He told me the man's story 55 I was a boy. He had known him when living nearby in that early day.
