《第五课》
（一）课文：
1)课文原文：
A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER
Mrs. Cox teaches English in a high school in San Francisco, a big city on the West Coast of the United States. She had wanted to become a teacher when she was young.
She has taught eight years now and always enjoyed her work.
A school day at Mrs. Cox’s high school is divided into six periods of one hour each.
Mrs. Cox teaches five of the six periods. During her “free “ period from 2 to 3 pm. Mrs.
Cox has to meet with parents, order supplies, make out examinations, check assignments, and take care of many other things. So Mrs. Cox works steadily from the time she arrives
at school in the morning until she leaves for home late in the afternoon, and her “free”
periods isn’t really free at all.
An English teacher usually divides her time among three subjects: language (grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. ), composition, and literature. Mrs. Cox’s favorite subject is
literature, and her most exciting class are tho on the literature of Black Americans.
For Mrs. Cox, like most of the students in her school, is Black.
In her sixth period today, Mrs. Cox taught a poem by a well-known Black writer in the United States. She wrote the poem on the blackboard and read it aloud.
No sooner had she finished reading the poem than student’s questions began pouring in. One boy said the poem was heartbreakingly sad. Another student, a girl, said
she had read a book by the same writer, but she wasn’t able to enjoy it as much as her
mother did, and she didn’t know why. A third, a keen viewer of TV theatre, recognized a
phra in the poem which had been ud as the title of a recent play.
As she answered the questions, Mrs. Cox made sure that her students understood every line of the poem. She asked them to discuss if the poem contained any message.
The discussion became so lively that no one wanted to stop when the bell rang. Some
said there was no message, some said there was, some said it didn’t really matter, and
the class ended at that.
As she drove home, Mrs. Cox thought about the class she had just left. Today she could feel good about what she had accomplished as a teacher. Not one of her students
looked bored. Every one of them emed interested in the poem. Once they started to
talk, they forgot about the time. She did not have to make them learn; she only had to
answer their questions and to guide the discussion. This, she thought to herlf, is what
teaching is all about!
2)原文译文：
一位高中教师
考克斯夫人在美国西海岸一座大城市旧金山的一所高中教英语。她年轻的时候就想当老师。她已经教书八年了，而且一直喜欢她的工作。考克斯夫人的高中一天分为六节课，每节一小时。考克斯夫人教这六节课中的五节课。从下午2点到3点。考克斯太太要见学生家长，订购用品，设计考试题，检查作业，处理许多其他的事情。因此，考克斯夫人从早上到达学校到下午晚些时候回家都很长，她的“免费”时间根本就不自由。
英语老师通常把时间分成三个科目：语言(语法、标点符号、拼写等)、作文和文学。考克斯夫人最喜欢的科目是文学，最令她兴奋的课程是关于黑人文学的课程。对考克斯夫人来说，和她学校的大多数学生一样，她是黑人。
在今天的第六节课上，考克斯教授了一位美国著名黑人作家的一首诗。她把这首诗写在黑板上大声朗读。
她刚读完这首诗，学生们的问题就涌了上来。一个男孩说这首诗令人心碎。
另一个学生，一个女孩，说她读过同一位作家的一本书，但她不能像她母亲那样享受这本书，她也不
知道为什么。第三位热衷于看电视戏剧，他认出了这首诗中的一个短语，这句话曾被用作最近一部戏剧的标题。考克斯夫人在回答问题时，确保学生们能听懂这首诗的每一行。她要求他们讨论这首诗是否包含任何信息。讨论变得如此热烈，铃声一响，没人想停下来。一些人说没有信息，有人说有，有人说这并不重要，而课程就这样结束了。
当她开车回家时，考克斯夫人想起了她刚离开的那堂课。今天，她能对自己作为一名教师所取得的成就感到高兴。她的学生中没有一个看上觉得课程无聊。他们每个人似乎都对这首诗感兴趣。他们一开始讨论，就忘了时间。她不需要让他们学习，她只需要回答他们的问题并指导讨论。她心想，这就是教学的意义所在！
