My Life at Renda

  I learned very quickly that being a teaching assistant (TA) at the University of Iowa would be different from being a teacher at Renmin University.

 

  ______(1)_____ Eyes staring, mouths open, students examined my big nose, while I was writing my name on the blackboard.

  At Iowa, when my first classes began, half of my students still hadn't arrived. When everyone finally found a seat, ringing cellphones and loud yawns (哈欠) interrupted my opening remarks. It is not that American students were disrespectful. _____(2) _____They were, however, far more skeptical than the students I had at Renda. The truth is I couldn't fault them for their skepticism. Undergraduates at large US universities - especially freshmen and sophomores - often have several classes a semester handled by TAs. In some cases, the TA sets the course content.     

  _____(3)_____ Most have good intentions, but very few are as effective as professors.

  Every teacher has to confront obstacles to learning - no matter what the culture. Students who talk during lectures, students who cheat, students who question the grade they get for a paper or project - dealing with these is all part of the job._____(4)_____

  The difference, I think, is that in the US I had to swallow more of my pride._____(5)_____

  I had a responsibility to teach them, of course, but I had to do so indirectly -as a guide who himself had a few things to learn from the students.

  A、Back at Renda, I had walked into my first classes feeling like a celebrity

  B、In my students' minds, I had little to offer them, except perhaps some sample questions for the mid-term exam.

  C、In others, the TA works as a grader and discussion leader

  D、I encountered these in China, and I faced them in the US.

  E、On the other hand, being taught by a graduate student is not necessarily bad

  F、Most were polite, or at least, indifferent.

  参考答案:F E B C A
