She was so happy when she entered the British embassy(大使馆).But her new job was just answering calls and recording staff members starting and leaving times. It was simple
10、 and boring. However, she didnt feel sad about it. And she loved it when she was working. She remembered the names and phone numbers of the staff members. When the phone calls came in, she picked it up as soon as possible. When someone asked her about who was not in the office, she would answer them

When I was in the 9thgrade, my math teacher asked me to help a few students who were not good at math. Before that, I never knew teaching would be so interesting.After my graduation, I worked
16、 as a software(软件)developer. But I realized that no job could provide me with the satisfaction that I experienced while teaching. I decided to be a teacher. I applied to a few colleges, and finally 5I was chosen as a “Lecturer(讲师)”.On the first day, I was nervous because I had to teach the senior cl
17、asses. But now I can say that taking lectures was one of the best experiences in my life. I was a Computer Science and Information Technology lecturer, but I tried to help my students with subjects that were not within my profession. I felt excited when the students greeted me, “Good morning, Madam”
18、.To me each day was a new beginning, with new feelings, new experiences and new questions. I loved to open their young minds, and read their curious(好求知的)faces when a topic seemed difficult.

22、ome work. Can computers replace human beings as teachers? My opinion is certain, they can. They can not only do the work of a teacher, but also can do it better.I will tell you the advantages of computers. In the class, children are often distracted(分心)by things like what the teacher is wearing, or
23、the feeling the teacher has. These things make students not center on the topic that is being taught. With computers playing the role of teachers, students will no longer have any such distraction and will be able to pay more attention to the subject.Another advantage of computers is that unlike hum
24、ans they do not need rest because of bad health or any other personal reasons. The programs can make sure that computers will work with few mistakes.There is another reason why computers might be preferred to human teachers. It is impossible for a computer to prefer some students to others. Some poo
25、r students greatly depend on the support and encouragement of their teachers. So, neglect(忽视)will never happen to them by learning from the computers. Human teachers may make mistakes because of personal feelings while evaluating(评估)students performance. This can be avoided. The process of evaluatio
26、n will be faster, too.For these reasons, I think that computers can replace human beings as teachers. In addition, it can be a better replacement.( )28.
