漢浯提示：教師是人類靈魂的上程師。請寫一篇150字左右的文章，說明你認為教師最應具有的個人魅力有哪些。

[寫作導航]第一段可作為開場白，指出教師應具有的個人魅力，引出我對這一問題的看法;第二段羅列我的看法，諸如性格活潑、善解人意、在學術上實事求是、有表演才能、思維敏捷、不斷進取等品質。

[範文]

Probably no two people would draw up exactly similar lists about the most desirable qualities in a teacher, but I think the following would be generally accepted.

First, the teacher's personality should be pleasantly lively and attractive. This doesn't rule out people who are physically plain, or even ugly, because many such people have great personal charm. But it does rule out those who are over excitable, depressed, unfriendly, sarcastic, or bossy. Second, it's not only desirable but essential for a teacher to have a capacity for sympathy——that is, a capacity to understand the feelings of students and a capacity to tolerate mistakes. Third, teachers should be intellectually honest——that is, they should know their own intellectual strengths and limitations. Fourth, every teacher should be a bit of an actor. They should be able to enliven the lessons with imaginative performances that keep students involved. And no matter how many times they have taught the same material or corrected the same mistake, they should never show that they are bored. Fifth, teachers must remain mentally alert. They must be quick to adapt to any situation and be able to improve. Finally, a teacher should always want to go on learning. A teacher who loses his thirst for knowledge will never inspire his students to learn.
