单选题 My grandfather was a teacher. He worked at a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man, because when I was young, he always gave me presents, and I sat on his knee, and he told me stories. But I believe that the boys at his school were afraid of him.
At school, it was silent at once when he walked into a classroom full of noise. When he looked at a boy in a certain way, the boy's face turned red at once and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor homework, my grandfather picked up the boy's book and threw it out of the room, and shouted, "Do it again and bring it back in the morning!"
