Part of the student bodywas a beanpole with hair on top who came into my class, sat down, folded hisarms, and looked at me as if to say: "All right, teach me something."Two weeks later we started Hamlet. Three weeks later he came into my officewith his hands on his hips. "Look," he said, "I came here to bea pharmacist. Why do I have to read this stuff."

My Good Friends
Tom and Jack are all my good friends although they are completely different from each other.
Tom is very short and rather fat. He likes to be well dressed.Every month, Tom spends all his money before his parents give him some more. Tom enjoys being with people. He's extremely cheerful all the time and likes to tell jokes. He loves to go to parties, and is always surrounded by people. He likes to dance and to listen to loud music. At every party, he sings all his favorite songs at the top of his voice. Tom is a typical extrovert.
Jack is completely different from Tom in looks, personality,and habits. Jack is tall and thin. He likes to wear plain clothes and live frugally(节约地). Every month, he is able to save some money. Jack likes quietness and to stay alone. He seldom laughs;he is very solemn. He loves reading, painting and travelling alone.He is a typical introvert.
本文用对比的方式将Tom与Jack两个人描写得栩栩如生,第一段点名主题,第二、三段展开叙述,从各个方面描写了两个人的不同特点。层次分明,条理清晰。
