His stage was an elementary school in Wales, leaky and many years condemned, with buckets and bucket-boys always ready for ever threatening rain. He worked hard. All day long he taught boys the rudiments of Arithmetic and English to prepare them for entrance into the local Grammar Schools and at night he presided in the same school over a Youth Club. And always he talked and couldn't bear to stop.
At night when the club was shut he would invariably say, "Walk home with me, boys," and delightedly we would; for we all knew that some lecture to be delivered would be only half completed by the time of our arrival at his house, which would mean a further half hour of talk while he offered to walk us back home. A further walk even might be necessary while he talked and talked. His subjects were legion.
His impact on me was decisive but not immediate. I felt that with him my mind broadened with every step I took. I couldn't believe this week that I was so ignorant last week, or this year that I wandered for twelve months in the darkness last year. He taught me to love the English language without actually talking about the English language. He taught me to be a reader without actually being much of a reader himself. I became, indeed, an under-the-bedclothes-with-a-torch-reader, leaving to myself, no doubt, a legacy of bad eyesight in my middle age.
Since I left Meredith Jones's circle I have enjoyed the talk of many pretty talkers. They were threepenny thinkers all, none had the huge personality of this man, or possessed the dark-eyed insolence to take on an opponent in the opponent's special subject and destroy him. To his death, and lamentably he is dead now, I never saw him matched.
My debt to this man, and my devotion to his memory are, I hope, apparent in this article. Without him I would have missed a large slice of life: I would not have gone to a university and I would probably not have become an actor. I would, I suspect in some unpleasant job, have become morose, suspicious, bitter and impossible to live with.
The author wrote this article to ______.
A.commemorate his teacher
B.recommend this teacher
C.recall his school days
D.describe his school life
Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior. I would have a life time of security if I stuck to it.Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered my boss’s office. Would he rage?I wondered. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk,” I began awkwardly.“I came to the Globe when I was twenty-four. Now I’m forty. There’s a lot I want to doinlife. I’m resigning.” “To another paper?” he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, but didn’t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything.It said that I was leaving to start a new media company. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wanted to be directly engaged in the change.“I’m glad for you,”he said, quite out of my expectation.“I just came from aboard of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much of it we can’t,” he went on.“I wish you all the luck in the world,”he concluded.“And if it doesn’t work out, remember, your star is always high here."
Then I went out of his office, walking through the news room for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody--even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all the financial security I had carefully built up.
Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into abillion-dollar property. “I’m resigning, Bill,” I said. He listened while I gave him the story. He wasn’t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said,“Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”

听力原文: Let children learn to evaluate their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's. In the same way, when children learn to do all the other things, for example, to walk, run, climb, ride a bicycle, they learn to do them without being told. They compare their performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his own mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him as If we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he became dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children, what this word means, what answer is to that problem, whether it is a good way to say or do this or not.
If it is a matter of right answers, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let's end this nonsense of grades, exams, marks. Let's throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.
(23)
A.They learn to do them by being corrected all the time.
B.They learn to do them by being taught by skilled people.
C.They learn to do them through comparison and discovery.
D.They learn to do them with the help of other children.
If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.
According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by ______.
A.asking older people many questions
B.listening to skilled people's advice
