I used to teach 7th grade boys． I often got comments of sympathy， but I loved those young students． When I first started teaching them， I soon realized I need to bring forth some new ideas to keep their attention， so I came up with the idea of doing object lessons． And one of my favourite lessons with them was the "Chocolate Cake Course"．
I took a covered cake carrier one day saying， " I want you to have some chocolate cakes this morning．" Then， I handed out a cup of cocoa powder， a bowl of eggs， and container with flour， oil， sugar and all the other ingredients to each boy． They looked at me in puzzlement and disappointment． I smiled as I told them， "I know it doesn't look like a chocolate cake now， but without adding all those ingredients， you won't end up with a delicious chocolate cake．"
We discussed the way the ingredients were put in a bowl and then beaten by a mixer． We talked about how the batter（糊状物） was put into pans and placed in a hot oven． Then I shared with them how the process mirrors our lives． Sometimes there were sweet times， like the sugar that went into the cake． Sometimes there were bitter times， like the cocoa when eaten alone． And sometimes there were hard times when we felt as if we were being beaten like the batter． Finally， we talked about how it was necessary for the cake batter to go into a hot oven． Sometimes we felt the heat of hot oven as if we were going through some hard circumstances． Just like I need to have a plan for that chocolate cake， we need to know exactly what ingredients to put into our lives and how long we need to stay in the oven of hard times so that we could become stronger and get the sweetness from life． Looking at their faces throughout the room， I could tell the boys had got it， especially when I showed a chocolate cake for them to share．
1.What is the writer's new idea as a teacher ？
A. Teaching children history．

C. Going fishing with children．
D. Sharing chocolate cakes in class．
