My school makes students take one religion (宗教) class every year. But religion is really hard, especially with Mr Frank Smith for a teacher.
Mr Smith is 55 years old, with grey hair and a moustache (胡子). He always wears a blue school T-shirt, shorts and tennis shoes with long white socks. My friends say he looks like a cat.
In his class, we did yoga (瑜珈) and meditation (冥想) (actually most of the children in my class lay on the ground sleeping), tasted some strange tea, had classes outside in the garden, and watched videos and movies about Tibetan Buddhism (藏傳佛教), God, and so on.
It was fun sometimes. However, the course (課程) was quite hard when it came to tests. The girls often worked until one or two o'clock in the morning on nights before the tests, but they still got bad scores.
When our test scores were bad, he would give us some makeup assignments (補(bǔ)考作業(yè)). Once I got a B, which I thought was bad, so I asked Mr Smith for an assignment to bring up my grades.
As a matter of fact, his assignments were often worse than the tests. The tests were just a lot of multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blanks, or short essays (文章). But his assignments usually included a speech in class.
I was not afraid of public speaking, yet it took me three days to collect the information, two days to write the speech, one day to make a PowerPoint and several hours to prepare. I knew my presentation (課堂展示) was good, because I saw Mr Smith's big smile when he listened to me. He gave me an A at last.
After finishing the course, I may not remember how hard it was or the meaning of some vocabulary. But through Mr Smith, I learned a lesson that will be with me my whole life. That is: no matter what we do, we need to put our hearts into it, and then our work will pay off.
【小題1】The religion class is hard because Mr Smith _______.

A．uses strange ways to teach in his class.
B．never gives good scores, however hard you try.
C．gives difficult tests and make-up assignments.
D．likes students to make good presentations.
【小題2】 How could students get good scores in Mr. Smith’s class?
A．Work hard by studying late into the night.
B．Remember all of the vocabulary.
C．Pay attention and take notes in class.
D．Do well on the make-up assignment.
【小題3】From the course, the writer learned that ____.
A．people should always be given a second chance
B．people should always put their hearts into their work
C．it is good to do yoga and meditation
D．it is good to choose strict teacher
