Special Question  Why teachers always made requests to students but not themselves?(We are helpless about the trash cans in teachers’ office.) Teachers are the hardest to teach.They ask students to do everything right,but they sometimes didn’t follow the rules.It’s double standard.We respect teachers because of their profession.They are not perfect.So just think they are old but childish.
