第五节：短文改错 （10分）

　　I often dream of a teacher. I dream of standing on the platform in the classroom and give lessons to lovely boys and girls. I teach them, play with them, but watch them growing up. I am always young when I was staying with them. I know there is not easy to be a teacher. You have to learn in order to teach. With enough knowledge, you can never learn well. What is more, you have to be friends with your pupils and take good care of him. Only in this way can you be a good teacher and win respects from them. Though I am a student now, I will work as very hard to make my dream come true.
