I got aboard and sat down in my seat．It was going to be a long flight． Around me were some      "Where are you headed?" I asked．
"Lakes Air Base．We'll be there for special training, and then to the front．"
After about an hour, an announcement was made that box lunches were   for five dollars． The journey would be several hours, and I decided to buy one．
As I     for my wallet, I heard a soldier ask his buddy if he would buy lunch．"No, that seems a lot of money for just a box lunch．" I looked around at the other soldiers．    were buying lunch．I walked to the back of the plane and     the flight attendant a fifty-dollar bill．
"Take a lunch to all those soldiers．" I said．She seized my arms tightly．Her eyes wet with tears, she     me, " My son is a soldier in the front．．．it's almost like you are doing it for him．"
Picking up ten boxes, she headed to the soldiers．
After eating, on my way to the rest room I was     by a man．"I saw what you did and I want to be     of it．" With this, he handed me twenty-five dollars．
Soon after I returned to my seat, I saw the Flight Captain coming, looking at the seat numbers    he walked．When he got to my row he stopped, smiled, held out his    , and said, "I want to     your hand．" I stood and took his hand．With a loud voice he said, "I was a soldier．   , someone bought me a lunch．It was such an act of    that I never forgot．" I was a little bit     when applause rang out from all of the passengers．These soldiers were giving their all for our country．I could only give them a couple of meals．

My favorite English teacher could draw humor out of the driest material. It wasn’t forced on us either. He took Samuel Johnson’s dictionary, Addison’s essays, and many other literary wonders from the eighteenth century and made them hilarious, even at eight o’clock in the morning. The thing that amazed me most was that the first time I read these works on my own some of them seemed dead, but the second time, after his explanation, I couldn’t believe that I hadn’t seen the humor. The stories and poems and plays were suddenly filled with allusions(典故) and irony and hilarious moments. I learned more from him than from any other teacher.
My least favorite English teacher also made people laugh. Some students found him to be wonderfully funny. Many others did not. He assigned journals over a six week period, to be written in every day. At the end of the six weeks I had a notebook full of bits and pieces about my ideas, short stories, reactions to what we had read, and so on. Our teacher announced that we would be grading each other’s journals. Mine was passed to Joe, that class clown, who always behaved in a funny or silly way. He saw it fit to make joke of and said, “This writing isn’t fit to line the bottom of a birdcage.” Our teacher laughed at that funny remark. It hurt me so much that the anger from it has driven my writing and teaching ever since.
So what makes the difference? Humor is one of the most powerful tools teachers or writers have. It can build up students and classes and make them excited about literature and writing, or it can tear them apart. It is true that humor is either productive or counter-productive and self-defeating.
