我的老师

In my middle school I had manygood teachers but Mr. Zhang was the one I partic ularly liked and respected. He was a middle-aged intellectual who lived a simple and hard working life but was always optimistic and spared no effort in teaching us. He was a scholar of Chinese literature and history.

We felt that he knew everything in this field. His knowledge and eloquence as well as his klndness made his lectures so attrative and touching that we were reluctant to hear the bell ringing to dismiss the class. One lesson he gave us that I cannot forget concerned some quotations from a pupil of Confucius who always felt at ease in spite of his life of abject poverty.

In his lecture Mr. Zhang revealed his true feelings in devoting himself to teaching all his life. This deeply moved us all. I respect Mr. Zhang and should learn from his noble spirit and do my best to study hard for our great socialist country.
