It was graduation day at the university where I work. It was a beautiful day quite the first graduation I attended.1a young teacher. On that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues (同事) said,"2 will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest times of your life. "When I asked him why, he answered," Because the students you have gotten to know have to 3."
As years went by, my confusion (困惑) about my colleague's words disappeared. When It came across naughty (淘气的) students, I had to think again 4. I chose to be a teacher. Of course, it wasn't the money.
Once a former(以前的)computer science student of mine called me, 5 me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His pay was much better than mine, 6I have more education and have worked for over ten years. With my programming skills; he said he could get me a better job. I thanked him, but 7 his offer.
A few days before this graduation, while working on final grades, I found a note with a student's homework. In the note, she8 me for being her teacher. She said she had -learned a lot in my class — not only about math, but also about life. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had9a teacher. Now, on this sunny graduation day, as: I10 watched the sea of blue hats and gowns (长袍), I had a deeper sense of satisfaction— I will always be happy that I am a teacher.
