David, a French priest(牧師)of thirty-six, was sent to China by the church in 1872.He did well in the natural and social science besides his religious activities(宗教活動)。He was also very interested in the rare wild animals and plants in China.

On May 4th, 1879, after searching half a month in the western part of Baoxing, Sichuan the hunters hired(雇用)by David succeeded in bringing him a "black-and-white bear". "The bear is extremely lovely", he wrote in his diary excitedly. Meanwhile, he felt it might be a new species (物種)never discovered by scientists.

He then decided to send it to Paris for a further study. Unfortunately the poor "black-and white" bear died of Jolts(顛簸)of the mountain roads and the climatic (氣候)change. He had to send its pelt (皮毛)to the National Museum in Paris for display (展覽)。In fact, the so-called "black-and white" bear was neither a bear nor a cat. After a complete study, Milla Edwards, head of the museum, judged that it was a new species. He gave the "giant panda".

In a class I teach for adults, I recently did the “unpardonable.” I gave the class homework!

The assignment (任務(wù)) was to “go to someone you love   36   the next week and tell them you love them. It   37   to be someone you have never   38   those words to before or at least haven’t shared those words with for a long time.” That doesn’t   39   like a very tough assignment,   40   you stop to realize that most of the men  were over 35 and were   41   in the generation of men that were taught that expressing emotions is not “macho (男子漢氣概的).” Showing feelings or crying (heaven forbid!) was just not done   42  this was a very threatening assignment for some.

At the   43   of our next class, I asked if someone wanted to   44   what happened when they told someone they loved them. I fully expected one of the   45   to volunteer, as was usually the   46  , but on this evening one of the men raised his hand. He appeared quite moved and a bit   47  . As he unfolded out of his chair, he began by saying, “Dennis. I was quite   48   with you last week when you gave us the assignment. I didn’t feel that I had   49  to say those words to and   50  , who were you to tell me to do something that personal? But as I began driving home my conscience (良知) started talking to me. It was telling me that I   51   exactly who I needed to say I love you to. You see, five years ago, my father and I had a heated   52   and really never resolved it since that one. We   53   seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at Christmas or other family gatherings. But   54   then, we hardly spoke to each other. So last. Tuesday   55   I got home, I had convinced myself. I was going to tell my father I loved him.”

       At present, in many American cities expecially, many teachers in the public schools say they are underpaid. They point to jobs such as secretary or truck driver, which often pay more to start than that of a teacher. In many other fields, such as law, medicine, computer science, a beginning worker may make more than a teacher who has taught for several years.

       Teaching has never been a profession that attracted people interested in high salaries. It is by history a profession that has provided rewards in addition to money—the satisfaction of sharing knowledge, of influencing others, of guiding young people. But in the past several years, there are more difficulties in teaching, for many, than there are rewards.

    Unruly students, especially in big cities, large classes and a lack of support from the public in terms of money and understanding have led many public school teachers to leave the profession.

       As a result, many of the best students, who would have chosen teaching as their life career in the past, are going into other fields.

       Another reason for this change in teacher candidates is the changing status of women in the United States. Until the late 1960s and 1970s, one of the most popular choices for women was teaching. But as other professions, such as law and medicine opened up to women, women stopped pouring into teacher training programs. Thus, a major pool of excellent candidates for the teaching profession dwindled.

       Bit by bit government officials and others realized that the status of the teacher had suffered. They talked about change. But the change in a vast society like the United States is not easy. People’s attitudes have formed over many years, and sometimes change takes many years.

63．The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 1 refers to “      ”.

       A．money             B．job

       C．secretary          D．truck driver

64．What is the present situation of the teaching?

       A．Teachers work harder and get underpaid.

       B．Teahcers have no opportunities to work in other fields.

       C．Teaching can attract best students to work as a teacher.

       D．Teaching can provide rewards as well as high salaries.

65．Many public school teachers turn to other professions because        .

       A．the government doesn’t finacially support them

       B．they have to work longer hours than a lawyer

       C．their students refuse to listen to them

       D．they are not fairly treated

66．The author believes that change in teachers’ status in the United States       .

       A．is not great     

       B．is impossible

       C．influences people’s attitude

       D．needs time
