Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit motionless before his class: he
15、stands the whole time while teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking abou
16、t. 29 However, all this doesnt mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teachers work and the actors. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain
17、 part. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. A good teacher works in quite a different way. 31 His audience takes an active part in his play; they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont Understand something, they sa
18、y so. 30 The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the need of his audience, which is his class.

20、s at least 100 years old. Where did the expression come from? 33 The first information came from the American writer James Fenimore Cooper. He said-in 1851-that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on stage. After they got their cue to go on, they often said, “Its
21、 time to go to face the music“. And that is exactly what they did-face the orchestra which was just below the stage. 34 An actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of the audience that might be friendly or perhaps unfriendly, especially if he forgot his lines. But he
22、 had to go out. So, “to face the music“ came to mean having to go through something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you had no choice. The other explanation comes from the army. Men had to face inspection by their leader. 35The soldiers worried about how well they looked. Was their equipment clean and shiny enough to pass inspection? Still, the men had to go out, and face the music of the band, as well as the inspection.
