Our Teacher of the Month for December 2016 is Gustavo Albarracín Quintero, who loves teaching English so much that he chose it over a film 32 as a profession.
Teaching experience:It is the 33 year since 2006 that I began working in the same language school. I started at 29 and I’m 39 now — time flies!
What kind of teacher are you? I believe in active learning. I encourage my students to 34 things and I try to guide them through learning. I use a lot of activities. I also take them to the city galleries 35 the one that is three miles away from our school.
Favourite student or class: My favourite class was one in which I had students of different ages. At first I was afraid of this, but it ended up being a 36 chance for my students and I to learn from each other. I learnt that students have different needs and interests and we must try to provide all of them with what is needed.
Most successful lesson: My most successful lesson was one in which everything seemed to go wrong! Why? Because it gave me a chance to reflect on my teaching, to look back to my own mistakes, and then to look 37 . I learnt to be prepared for the unexpected (always have a Plan B!). I often tried more 38 methods, and everything worked out well in the end. Funniest thing to happen to me in a classroom:
One of the funniest classes I’v e had was one with beginners. It once became the 39 of my life actually. The students spoke no English at all and my school wanted me to teach without their first language.
They had no internet access in the classroom so I had to do something I wasn’t quite used to doing.
I started drawing! The students were amused, but my communicative aim was 40 and it was really fun for me too.
Most valuable thing I’ve learn ed: There is no 41 for teaching. Remember that change and improvement are learning opportunities.
III. Reading Comprehension (39%)
Section A (15%)
Don’t Be a Medical Victim
If you add up all the errors that occur in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, health-care mistakes kill 500,000 people in the United States every year, say Joe and Teresa
Graedon. In their new book, Top Screwups Doctors Make and How to Avoid Them, they discuss the most common 42 people face in doctors’ offices, pharmacies(药房), hospitals, and their own homes. Here are their top stay-safe 43 .
IN THE HOSPITAL
Trust but check.“Hospitals are very complicated places, so it’s 44 that something will go wrong,” says Teresa Graedon. 45 , studies suggest there’s at least one mistake per person for each day in the hospital, whether 46 or life-threatening. If you are in the hospital or visiting a loved one, speak up if you 47 an error.
IN THE DOCTOR’S OFFICE
Speak clearly, and then repeat. Your 48 with your physician is like a noisy cell phone call: Information “dropouts” can occur if your docto r is distracted (使分⼼) or if you get 49 . You typically have only about 20 seconds to describe your 50 before the doctor starts asking questions. So come with a prioritized (优先化) list of 51 , and use the “teach-back” method, Joe Graedon suggests.“You might say, ‘I want to make sure I didn’t 52 anything. Can you repeat the symptoms back that seem important to you?’” And after your doctor discusses your treatment plan, say, “So what you’re asking me to do is…
” That way, you’re both 53 .
WHEN YOU GET A PRESCRIPTION (药⽅)
Check for drug interactions. 54 a dangerous mix by taking a list of all your medicine to your 55 , including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, Joe Graedon says. When you fill a new prescription, ask your pharmacist (药剂师) to use the computer system to check for 56 serious interactions. When you get home, double-check by going to

Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions. For each of t
hem there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
W hat do three hearts, eight arms, and one huge brain add up to?
An octopus, a living thing that can do amazing things. Octopuses are
extremely intelligent. They can learn new things just like humans.
They’ve even learned a few tricks to get them out of dangerous situations.
If an octopus is threatened by a shark or bird, it can use some pretty incredible skills to get away. Octopuses don’t have teeth to defend themselves. Instead, they use more clever ways to fool their attackers. Octopuses like to hide themselves in the sand on the bottom of the ocean floor. How you ask? Well, the octopus is like a chameleon, another kind of sea animal, because it can change the colour of its skin to match the sand.
Some octopuses like to stay where there are rocks. Octopuses don’t have backbones, they can squee
ze themselves into small spaces between the rocks to get out of reach of their enemies. Another way an octopus can keep safe is by shooting ink. The ink forms a cloud that hides the octopus. By the time the ink clears and their enemy can see again, the octopus has swum away or hidden.
If an octopus is being attacked, it can actually make itself look like a sea snake.
It will bury itself in the sand, keeping two arms visible. It will change the colour of those arms to match a sea snake. But what if there’s no time to hide? If an octopus is in trouble, it can break off one of its arms. The arm will then change colours in the water to distract the enemies while the octopus swims away t o safety. Don’t worry though. The octopus’s arm will grow back. The blue-ringed octopus is tiny; it could fit in the palm of your hand. Attackers might think this size makes the octopus a great snack, but they know to stay away. The blue-ringed octopus is very poisonous and can kill attackers much larger than itself. Next time you see an octopus, remember that inside that oversized head is a very large brain, making them a clever addition to the sea.
57. How are an octopus and a chameleon alike?
A. They both like to hide on the ocean floor.
B. They both could live on land sometimes.
C. They both can use their arms to kill attackers.
D. They both can change the colour of their skin.
58. What happens to an octopus if it loses one of its eight arms?
A. It will grow a new one.
B. It will die.
C. It is no longer poisonous.
D. It can swim faster.
59. Which of the following is NOT an octopus’ self-protection trick?
A. Hiding on the bottom of the ocean floor.
B. Biting the attackers with its sharp teeth.
C. Shooting ink from its body.
D. Breaking part of its own body.
