A Kenyan teacher who gave away most of his monthly salary to poor people has won a $1 million Global
Teacher Prize.
In 2016, Peter Tabichi came to Keriko Mixed Day Secondary School, a public school, in a faraway Kenya’s
Rift Valley. The school had just a single computer and had problems connecting to the Internet. It had no library or
laboratory, as well. To make matters worse, the students came from poor families where basics like food and
clothing were hard to come by. While these difficulties would have caused most people to leave quickly, Tabichi
stayed.
Realizing that starving kids make for poor students, the teacher began using as much as 80 percent of his
monthly salary to buy food and learning objects for them. He set up a science club to get kids interested in the
topic. “Our laboratory does not have everything, but I encourage them to think wider and use what we can get
locally. ”
Tabichi and other four teachers regularly visit low-achieving, at-risk students at their homes to provide one-
on-one help and to understand the difficulties these children face daily. Tabichi also encourages parents to allowgirls to continue their high-school education.
Tabichi’s efforts have made a difference. School registration (注册)has more than doubled to almost 400 now
since he came . In 2017, 16 of the 59 graduating students went to college, while in 2018, the number rose to 26.
In 2017, five students qualified(有资格)for the Intel ISEF (International Science and Engineering Fair). This year,
two other students will compete in the 2019 Intel ISEF to be held in Phoenix, Arizona.
The teacher, however, owes his success to his students, saying, “I am only here because of what my students
have achieved. This prize gives them a chance. It tells the world that they can do anything. ” As would be expected,
Tabichi plans to spend the prize money on his school community and to feed the poor.

Once there were three trees in the woods on a hill. They were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first
tree said, “Someday I hope to be a treasure chest (珍宝箱). I could be filled with gold, silver and valuable items. I
could be decorated with beautiful designs and everyone would see the beauty. ”
Then the second tree said. “Someday I will be a big and strong ship. I will take kings and queens across the
waters and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe in me because of the strength of my body. ”
Finally, the third tree said, “I want to grow to be the tallest and straightest tree in the forest. People will come
to see me on the top of the hill and look up to my branches and think of the sky and how close to it I am reaching. I
will be the greatest tree of all time and people will always remember me. ”
After few years of praying (祈祷) that their dreams would come true, the trees were visited by a group of
woodsmen. When one came to the first tree, he said, “This tree looks like a strong one. I think I should be able to
sell the wood to a carpenter. ”And he began cutting it down. The tree was very happy, because he knew that the
carpenter would make him into a treasure chest.
At the second tree, a woodsman said, “This looks like a strong tree and I should be able to sell it to the ship
factory. ” The second tree was also very happy because he knew he was on his way to becoming a huge and strong
ship.
When woodsmen came upon the third tree, the tree was frightened because he knew that if they cut him down,
his dream would not come true. One of the woodsmen said, “I don’t need anything special from my tree. I’ll take
this one. ” And he cut it down.

【附加题】 概要写作
阅读下面短文, 根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Many Chinese students have studied English for approximately ten years, but most of them cannot even speakEnglish correctly or fluently. In my opinion, there are several obstacles that have caused this to happen. The main
obstacle is fear! Another is the habit of mentally translating from Chinese to English and then to change these
thoughts into spoken words and sentences. Many of these difficulties are caused by the way Chinese people study
and learn the language.
We must learn to speak as a child does. When we are learning a second language, we need to remember how
we learned our native language. Learning to understand and speak a language is one of the first skills a child
develops. How does a child learn the language? He listens for a time and then he tries to repeat the words. Parents
give great praise for the smallest effort and slightest improvement. Therefore, the child develops courage and is
excited about learning. It takes a long time before he knows anything about grammar, spelling or formal sentence
structures.
As for language teachers, they should avoid criticism and be very encouraging and generous with praise.
Criticism or pointing out faults too often causes students to lose self-confidence and develop a fear of speaking.
The best way to motivate a student is using praise.
The most important aspect of speaking is having good self-esteem. Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself.
When most Chinese people are asked how their English is, or they are told their English is very good, they
immediately respond by saying, “Oh my English is very poor. ” If you say this to yourself often enough, you will
believe it. When someone compliments(称赞) you, just say “thank you”.

【参考范文】
Caused by their fear and way of learning, many Chinese students cannot speak English fluently even after ten-
years’ learning. (要点1) Actually we should learn to speak English as a child learns his native language by listening
and repeating a lot. (要点2) And teachers should praise and encourage rather than criticize students, just as parents
do. (要点3) Finally, having good self-esteem is of vital importance in speaking English. (要点4)
