【正确答案】topic The professor gives two advices on how to have students followed rules set down by a teacher. example 1 First of all, the teacher should explain the rule as clearly as he can. When the professor was teaching first grade, she forbade students to eat and drink in class. Such rule is certainly unpopular and most students contract the rule at first. However, the students began to follow it when they had known such rule was laid clown to help them focus their attention and study better through her detailed explanation. example 2 The second approach is to have the students built up a personal relationship on the rule.

【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Teachers have one of the toughest and most important jobs; therefore, it is critical to every nation's future to train good teachers. One key to being a good teacher is to set rules and boundaries for your students. But how do you get students to follow these rules? Here are two strategies you can employ. Firstly, it is important to explain the rule and why you are making it. Believe it or not, I used to teach at an elementary school. People don't like to be forced to do something, especially young children who think that teachers want to prevent them from having fun. So it's important to make them understand why a rule is in their best interest. Back when I was teaching first grade, I had a rule that prohibited eating or drinking in my class. In the beginning, lots of students didn't like it. But I explained that the rule was for their benefit. I didn't want them to be distracted by food during class or make a mess, which would interfere with their studies. After I told them my reasoning, my students began to follow the rule because they realized, it was for their own good. Another strategy is to make the students have a personal stake in the rule. Again, back in my elementary school days, I was very strict about cheating. But I didn't just have all the students say they will not cheat. Instead, I wrote a piece of paper saying that cheating was forbidden and made all the students sign it. I then posted it in the front of the class where everyone could see it. Because the students had made a promise using their names, their pride made it easier to uphold that promise. If they thought about cheating, they could see everyone's signatures in the front of the room and be reminded of how they should act.
