In terms of teaching styles, I have had three kinds of teachers since my school days began.
The first kind is the lord(君主) of the class. I call him Mr. Frightening. His ideas can never be 36 . If any student should challenge him even on a 37 matter, he would jump up, red-faced and eyes popping(突出) out, and 38 , “Who’s the teacher here, your or me?” At that moment, if someone was 39 enough to raise one more question, he would 40 at him for three minutes. With their minds locked up, the students are made into 41 machines. They only 42 what Mr. Frightening says, and finally become his “clones”(克隆).
