老师(The Teacher) 教育家陶行知先生曾说过：“在教师手里操着幼年人的命运，便操着民族和人类的命运。” 在很多时候，老师的一点点鼓励、一点点嘉许，就能对孩子的心理产生不可磨灭的影响。可以说，老师所决定的，绝对不仅仅是学生们少年时期的几个无关紧要的分数，而是孩子们的心理、未来和命运。 Mrs. Thompson stood in front of her fifth-grade class on the first day of school. She looked at her pupils and said that she loved them all the same, that she would treat them all alike. But that was impossible because there in front of her was a little boy named Teddy. Mrs. Thompson noticed that Teddy's clothes were dirty. Because Teddy was a sullen little boy, no one else seemed to enjoy him either. Mrs. Thompson was required to review each child's records. When she opened Teddy's file she was surprised. His first-grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is a bright, inquisitive boy. He is a joy to be around." His second-grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is an excellent student, well-liked by his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal disease." His third-grade teacher wrote, "Teddy continues to work hard but his mother's death has been hard on him." Teddy's fourth-grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest in school." By now Mrs. Thompson realized the problem. And Christmas was coming fast. Her children brought her presents, all in beautiful ribbons and bright paper, except for Teddy. His present was clumsily wrapped in a brown paper bag. Mrs. Thompson opened it in the middle of the other presents. Some of the children started to laugh when she found a rhinestone bracelet with some of the stones missing and a bottle of perfume that was one-quarter full. The girl's biggest weakness had become her biggest strength. She stopped the children's laughter and exclaimed how pretty the bracelet was, putting it on, and dabbing some of the perfume on the other wrist. Teddy stayed behind just long enough to say, "Mrs. Thompson, today you smelled just like my mom used to." On that very day, Mrs. Thompson quit teaching reading, and writing, and speaking. Instead, she began to teach children. She paid particular attention to one they called "Teddy." The more she encouraged him, the faster he responded. By the end of the year he had become one of the best students in the class and he had also become the "pet" of the teacher who had once vowed to love all of her children exactly the same. 登陆佳禾外语(http://www.jiahewh.com/ ) 享受更多增值服务。 佳禾英语网：http://en.jiahewh.com 佳禾日语网：http://jp.jiahewh.com 在线测试：http://test.jiahewh.com 有问必答：http://ask.jiahewh.com 学习小组：http://group.jiahewh.com 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/4f187cf0fe0a79563c1ec5da50e2524de418d076.html
