A new term has begun. Teachers are 36 about the fact that new students are not easy to handle. They like to bring cellphones and MP3 players to school. What is 37 ，some students even use cellphones to do with out-of-class matters in class，or sometimes just for fun. Some other students listen to MP3 players when they are having a lesson that they are not interested in.
Are these new students really that38 ? ’Yes，’ says Delaney Kirk，a professor at Drake University.39 she adds it’s not their fault. Instead， the things that they bring into school---cellphones，MP3 players and so on --- and the teachers are to blame. Kirk first began thinking about students’ manners six years ago. ‘I had my first class in which students were sleeping or talking to each other. It seemed that learning well 40 nothing to do with them，’ she says. ’At first，I got worried about this，but then I said to myself， "You’re teaching41 ，and you need to manage this…These students need to know more about manners. It’s time to help them develop some good 42 . They shouldn’t waste time doing nothing when they are young. Sooner or later，they might regret the time they have wasted."’
Kirk also 43a list of suggestions to help teachers better manage their classes. The following are among her suggestions：
● Tell students how they will benefit by taking the class. On the first day of class，emphasize its importance 44 giving some homework that students must turn in next time.
● Do not allow them to bring cellphones and MP3 players to the class at all.
■ Decide 45 formal and informal the class will be.

No one could know how 38 I was when I took my violin to school for my first lesson. Several years later, I became famous as a violinist. And then, I carefully 39 the violin away.
Now 40 this ad, I discovered the case deep in my closet(储藏室). I put it on the table. Then I picked up the 41 , walked to the telephone and called the number.
Later in the day, a man aged about 30 knocked at the door. "I’ve been expecting

"When I was your age," a father said to his sixteen-year-old son one day, "I was at the top of my class every year. And I42 what I wanted to do when I left school. I had goals (目标). You are always at the bottom (最后) of your class 43 you have no goals."
The man’s son said nothing. He had already heard this from his father many times. "And when your mother was your age, " the young man’s father44 , " she had a good job and she45 lots of money. You don’t even have a part-time job .You earn nothing. " The man’s son still said nothing. He had heard this before, too. "And when your46 brother was your age, "the young man’s father said, "he studied hard. But you just waste your time."
And the man’s son still said nothing.
Finally, the young man’s father said, "And when Abraham Lincoln was your age, he worked all day and studied at night."
This time the son 47 stay silent. "
And when Abraham Lincoln was your age, father," he said, "He was the President of48 United States.49 are you?"
His father had no answer50 this.
