Most teachers agree that the first lesson of a teacher is often unforgettable．I remember getting into the class with the 1 of a beginner teacher: nervous, careful, excited…etc．The school I 2 my first lesson in was well-known to hold the most troublesome （頑皮的）students in the city．With this in 3 , I was more nervous than I should be．But I tried my best not to 4 it out and went into the class．The first thing I did was taking a look at the whole class．My eyes 5 on a big black student．He was sitting in the back 6 of the class with no one in front of him．His body was much 7 than mine．I thought it would be better to 8 that boy untouchable．As soon as I started my lesson writing on the blackboard, I heard some noise from the back．I 9 the students to find out who did it, but the class looked very 10 ．I went on writing and the noise went on．Then I stopped my lesson to 11 this problem because I believed that if I lost control of the class from the 12 I wouldn’t be able to get it back．I thought the big boy made the noise．To my 13 , a small boy was the source （根源）of trouble．Days went 14 and I discovered that the big boy was good and quiet and the great source of trouble came from a group of 15 students who became under control after some weeks．From then on, I realized that judging （判斷）by appearance can often be wrong, not only with students!

Once there was a piano player in a bar(酒吧). People came just to hear him play. But one night, a lady asked him to sing a song.
‘I don’t sing,’ said the man.
But the lady told the waiter, ‘I’m tired of listening to the piano. I want the player to sing!’
The waiter shouted across the room, ‘Hey, friend! If you want to get your money, sing a song!’
So he did. He had never sung in public before. Now he was singing for the very first time! Nobody had ever heard the song Mona Lisa sung so beautifully!
He had talent(天賦) he was sitting on! He may have lived the rest of his life as a no-name piano player in a no-name bar. But once he found, by accident, that he could sing well, he went on working hard and became one of the best-known singers in the US. His name was Nat King Cole.
You, too, have skills and abilities. You may not feel that your talent is great, but it may be better than you think. With hard work, most skills can be improved. Besides, you may have no success at all if you just sit on your talent.
【小題1】The lady asked the player to sing a song because ______________.
| A．she had paid him for this | B．she knew him very well |
| C．she wanted to have a change | D．she enjoyed his singing |
| A．the lady helped him a lot | B．he caught the chance |
| C．he continued to play in the bar | D．he stopped playing the piano |
| A．hide it and wait | B．a(chǎn)sk others for help |
| C．pay no attention to it | D．work hard to improve yourself |
Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!
Parapsychologists (靈學家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist (心理學家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受試者）were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they’re being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”
1.The aim of the two experiments is to ________.
A．explain when people can have a sixth sense
B．show how people act while being watched in the lab
C．study whether humans can sense when they are stared at
D．prove why humans have a sixth sense
2.The underlined word “outcome” in the last paragraph most probably means ________.
A．value B．result C．performance D．connection
3. In the second experiment, the subjects _________.
A．could tell when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
B．could tell when they were stared at but couldn’t tell when they weren’t.
C．couldn’t tell when they were stared at but could tell when they weren’t.
D．couldn’t tell when they were stared at or when they weren’t.
4.What can be learned from the passage?
A．People are born with a sixth sense.
B．The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea.
C．The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D．People have a sixth sense in all places.
