Joseph is a teacher in New York. He gives lessons to 【小题1】 students about American history. But he was born in Kenya, an African country where the children lead a very different life. For example, a ten-year-old boy may spend 【小题2】 time in taking care of cows than studying at school. The children also learn many skills like how 【小题3】 in the wild.

Unlike many other children, Joseph went to school. And when he was fifteen, he came to study in America and then became a teacher. Joseph has written a book 【小题4】 Facing the Lion. In the book, he talks about his childhood (童年). He thinks children should learn to be strong and full of hope. Now Joseph is doing some 【小题5】, hoping that they will help children face their own “lions”.

My name is Miss Jones. I am an English teacher at a 【小题1】 secondary school. To me, teaching is an admirable job because teachers are respected by a lot of people. I find my work rewarding because my students learn a lot from my classes and that makes me so happy. Learning English can 【小题2】 be challenging, so when my students find a topic difficult, I try to find ways to make the subject easier and more enjoyable.

I enjoy different hobbies, and I have 【小题3】 interests; everything from collecting old books to mountain biking. I love to find an old book that no one else owns, which means the books are very unique and special. I also enjoy learning new skills. Every Friday evening, I take a French cooking class. I really feel my cooking skills are 【小题4】! I enjoy my work and life!
