I teach at a university and recently had an interesting interaction with a student who approached my desk with an assignment. I watched as he it from his pocket and held the crumpled (皱的) sheet out to me.
“What’s that?” I asked. His : “My work.”
I was shocked. All I could do was stare at it long enough to my voice. Then I told him to redo the _ _ and hand it back to me as a clean, _ and spotless copy. As the student , I picked up the merest anger.
If I have some as a teacher, then this is it: quality. In the long of my teaching career, I have given my students great creative freedom and _ _ many extensions of deadlines. But my _ of quality remains anchored in concrete. I have always felt that should I _ on this one essential issue,then all is lost.
So what became of my with the crumpled paper? He gave me the paper like a soldier presenting something to a king _ a cat, which is why I _ him. I called him back. We sat down together, and I __ his draft, which was disorganized. I explained, and clearly, that one’s first effort is exactly that: a start. And we took it from there, moving a paragraph, deleting the word or sentence, and _ grammar.
Once those basic things were _, my student asked, “Are we done?” “Not yet,” I smiled. “One last step.” I told him to read his work out loud and listen to his words. After he , he lowered the paper and looked at me, with his expression filled with hope.
