33、t Bakers essay was very good?Why did Baker feel so delighted?Writing for Myself The idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville,but it wasnt until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold.Until then Id been bored by everything associated wi

34、th English courses.I found English grammar dull and difficult.I hated the assignments to turn out long,lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write.Russell Baker When our class was assigned to Mr.Fleagle for third-year English I anticipated another cheerless year in t

35、hat most tedious of subjects.Mr.Fleagle had a reputation among students for dullness andinability to inspire.He was said to be very formal,rigid and hopelessly out of date.To me he looked to be sixty or seventy and excessively prim.He wore primly severe eyeglasses,his wavy hair was primly cut and pr

36、imly combed.He wore prim suits with neckties set primly against the collar buttons of his white shirts.He had a primly pointed jaw,a primly straight nose,and a prim manner of speaking that was so correct,so gentlemanly,that he seemed a comic antique.I prepared for an unfruitful year with Mr.Fleagle

37、and for a long time was not disappointed.Late in the year we tackled the informal essay.Mr.Fleagle distributed a homework sheet offering us a choice of topics.None was quite sosimple-minded as“What I Did on My Summer Vacation,”but most seemed to be almost as dull.I took the list home and did nothing

38、 until the night before the essay was due.Lying on the sofa,I finally faced up to the unwelcome task,took the list out of my notebook,and scanned it.The topic on which my eye stopped was“The Art of Eating Spaghetti.”This title produced an extraordinary sequence of mental images.Vivid memories came f

39、looding back of a night in Belleville when all of us were seated around the supper table Uncle Allen,my mother,UncleCharlie,Doris,Uncle Hal and Aunt Pat served spaghetti for supper.Spaghetti was still a little known foreign dish in those days.Neither Doris nor I had ever eaten spaghetti,and none of

40、the adults had enough experience to be good at it.All the good humor of Uncle Allens house reawoke in my mind as I recalled the laughing arguments we had that night about the socially respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth.Suddenly I wanted to write about that,about the warmth a

41、nd good feeling of it,but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy,not for Mr.Fleagle.It was a moment I wanted to recapture and hold for myself.I wanted to relive the pleasure of that evening.To write it as I wanted,however,would violate all the rules of formal composition Id learned in school,

42、and Mr.Fleagle would surely give it a failing grade.Never mind.I would write something else for Mr.Fleagle after I had written this thing for myself.When I finished it the night was half gone and there was no time left to compose a proper,respectable essay for Mr.Fleagle.There was no choice next mor

43、ning but to turn in my tale of the Belleville supper.Two days passedbefore Mr.Fleagle returned the graded papers,and he returned everyones but mine.I was preparing myself for a command to report to Mr.Fleagle immediately after school for discipline when I saw him lift my paper from his desk and knoc

44、k for the classs attention.“Now,boys,”he said.“I want to read you an essay.This is titled,The Art of Eating Spaghetti.”And he started to read.My words!He was reading my words out loud to the entire class.Whats more,the entireclass was listening.Listening attentively.Then somebody laughed,then the en

45、tire class was laughing,and not in contempt and ridicule,but with open-hearted enjoyment.Even Mr.Fleagle stopped two or three times to hold back a small prim smile.I did my best to avoid showing pleasure,but what I was feeling was pure delight at this demonstration that my words had the power to mak

46、e people laugh.In the eleventh grade,at the eleventh hour as it were,I had discovered a calling.It was the happiest moment of my entire school career.When Mr.Fleagle finished he put the final seal on my happiness by saying,“Now that,boys,is an essay,dont you see.Its dont you see its of the very esse

47、nce of the essay,dont you see.Congratulations,Mr.Baker.”What can we infer from this sentence?Up to then,Baker had had no interest in things related to English courses.Until then Id been bored by everything associated with English courses.Paraphrase the sentence.I found it painful to write long,borin

48、g essays as required by teachers;neither did teachers enjoy what I wrote.I hated the assignments to turn out long,lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write.What can we learn from this phrase?We can know from this phrase that before Mr.Fleagle became Bakers English

49、teacher,all English courses were dull.another cheerless year in that most tedious of subjectsWhat does the author really mean when he says “I.was not disappointed”?He means that his expectation was right that Mr.Fleagles lessons were dull.I prepared for an unfruitful year with Mr.Fleagle and for a l

50、ong time was not disappointed.1.What can we infer from these sentences?Baker was unwilling to write his essay.2.List phrases to support your inference.did nothing until the essay was due;faced up to the unwelcome task.I took the list home and did nothing until the night before the essay was due.Lyin
