Question

(2015 •湖北宜昌) 

   Teaching is one of the most rewarding (有回報的) jobs. It is also one of the most stressful. If you want to be a teacher,you should have a passion (激情) for young people. If you are thinking about going into teaching for any other reason than this,you need to find another job.

   Teaching is difficult. Students can be difficult. Parents can be difficult. If you do not have a passion for the young people that you teach,you will burn out quickly. Passion is what keeps an excellent teacher going. When students have trouble understanding what is taught,it is what drives him to spend long hours trying to think out how to help them. If you do not have enough passion for your students,you might last a year or two,but not long. Passion is a must-have quality(品質） for every good teacher. 

   Teaching can be rewarding,but you shouldn’t expect that reward to come easily. Teachers who search out better and new methods are the ones who will make it. A good teacher needs to be able to work with everyone. All teachers face stress. It is important to be able to deal with everything that is thrown at you when you walk through your classroom doors. There are so many chances for stress within a classroom that an excellent teacher has to be able to bring it in control. If you cannot manage stress quite well,then teaching may not be the right job for you.
