To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention of your audience; you must be a clever speaker, with good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.
The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of an actor doesn't mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher's work and actor's. 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 part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.

A. A teacher's voice must be nicer than an actor.

After a day’ s hard work, we need some sleep. During the sleep, the fatigue(疲劳) of the body disappears and recuperation(恢复) begins. The tired mind gathers new energy, and the memory improves.
Some adults require little sleep; others need eight to ten hours in every twenty-four hours. Infants(婴儿) sleep sixteen to eighteen hours daily, the amount gradually diminishing as they grow older. Young students may need twelve hours; university students may need ten. A worker with a physically demanding job may also need ten, whereas an executive working under great pressure may manage on six to eight. Many famous people have little sleep. Napoleon Bonaparte, Thomas Edison and Charles Darwin apparently averaged only four to six hours a night.
Whatever your individual need, you can be sure that by the age of thirty you will have slept for a total of more than twelve years. By that age you will also have developed a sleep routine: a favorite hour, a favorite bed,
A. that they were famous
B. that they were executives
