Question

While I was waiting to enter university, I saw in a newspaper a teaching job wanted at a school about ten miles from where I   16  . Because I was in great need of   17  and wanted to do something useful, I applied（申請）.

I should have to divide the class into   26  groups and teach them at three different   27  , and I was not  28  at the thought of teaching maths—a subject which I didn’t do very well in at school. It was  29  that I had to teach them on Saturday afternoon because most of my friends would be   30   themselves at that time.
Before I had time to ask about my salary（薪水）, he got up to his feet. “ Now,” he said. “ you’d better meet my wife. She is the one who really runs this school.
