A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
老师
Teacher
But the fact is, no matter how good the teacher, how small the class, how focused on quality education the school may be none of this matters if we ignore the individual needs of our students.
但事实是，无论老师有多好，班级有多小，学校对素质教育有多重视，如果我们忽视学生的个人需求，这些都无关紧要。
I saw as a teacher how, if you take that spark of learning that those children have, and you ignite it, you can take a child from any background to a lifetime of creativity and accomplishment.
作为一名教师，我看到，如果你把这些孩子身上的学习火花点燃，你就能让一个孩子从任何背景成长为具有创造力和成就的人。
As the daughter of a schoolteacher, I feel very strongly that the most important thing in school takes place right there in that classroom, and the interaction between the teacher and the child.
作为一名教师的女儿，我强烈地感觉到，学校里最重要的事情就发生在那个教室里，老师和孩子之间的互动。
None of us got where we are solely by pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps. We got here because somebody - a parent, a teacher, an Ivy League crony or a few nuns - bent down and helped us pick up our boots.
没有一个人仅仅靠自己的努力就能取得今天的成就。我们来到这里是因为有人——一位家长，一位老师，一位常春藤盟校的密友，或者几个修女——弯下腰来帮我们捡起了靴子。
I count myself well educated, for the admirable woman at the head of the school which I attended from the age of four and a half till I was thirteen and a half, was a born teacher in advance of her own times.
我认为自己受过良好的教育，因为我从四岁半到十三岁半就读的这所学校的校长是一位令人钦佩的女性，她是一位比她所处的时代更早出生的教师。
I don't have a lot of skills, but one thing I can do is, I can compartmentalize. I can make that a little world that I can go back to, so I can be a waitress, or I can be a teacher, and then go and work on my book.
我没有很多技能，但我能做的一件事是，我可以划分。我可以创造一个我可以回去的小世界，所以我可以成为一名服务员，或者一名教师，然后继续写我的书。
The teacher that I was for decades, and that I still am in a certain way, wondered what was meant by the word education. I was truly dumbfounded at the very thought of dealing with such an essential and extensive subject.
我当了几十年的老师，从某种意义上说，我现在还在当老师，我想知道“教育”这个词是什么意思。一想到要处理如此重要和广泛的问题，我就真的目瞪口呆。
Therefore, a person should first be changed by a teacher's instructions, and guided by principles of ritual. Only then can he observe the rules of courtesy and humility, obey the conventions and rules of society, and achieve order.
因此，一个人首先应该被老师的教导所改变，并遵循礼仪的原则。只有这样，他才能遵守礼貌和谦逊的规则，遵守社会的惯例和规则，实现秩序。
The fact of the matter is that when there are feelings involved and you like someone, it doesn't matter if you're an actor, a teacher, a doctor, a lawyer, a receptionist - you can't really help it when you have feelings for someone.
事实是，当你有感情牵涉其中，而且你喜欢某个人的时候，不管你是演员、老师、医生、律师还是接待员，当你对某个人有感情的时候，你真的无法控制自己。
Teaching is the only major occupation of man for which we have not yet developed tools that make an average person capable of competence and performance. In teaching we rely on the "naturals," the ones who somehow know how to teach.
教学是人类唯一的主要职业，我们还没有开发出工具，使一个普通人有能力和表现。在教学中，我们依赖于“自然主义者”，那些不知何故知道如何教学的人。
My younger sister had kids before I did, and managed to earn a master's degree while raising them as a single parent. Now she's a brilliant second-grade teacher. I'm in awe of her ability to juggle everything and still be a great mother.
我妹妹比我更早有了孩子，作为单亲妈妈，她一边抚养孩子一边努力获得了硕士学位。现在她是一名优秀的二年级教师。我对她既能应付一切又能做一个好母亲的能力感到敬畏。
I watch too much cable, I admit. Day after day it gets frustrating. Yesterday I watched as someone called legislation to prevent teacher layoffs a bailout - but I know that's not a view held by many, nor were the views I was frustrated about.
我承认我看电视太多了。日复一日，它变得令人沮丧。昨天，我看到有人把防止教师裁员的立法称为救市计划，但我知道很多人都不这么认为，我也不为这些观点感到沮丧。
