students graduated,most of them became ministers or teachers.
In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later,
lawyers could receive their training in Harvard"s law school.In 1825, besides Latin and Greek , Harvard
began teaching modern languages, such as French and German.Soon it began teaching American history.
As knowledge increased. Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students
were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.

Hanukkah
Hanukkah (光明节) is a Jewish festival. It is celebrated on the 25th day of the Jewish month of
Kislev (犹太教历), which is usually sometime in December. It is often called the festival of lights.
The festival celebrates the time, over 2,000 years ago, when the Jewish people fought against an
emperor who would not let them follow their own traditions and religion. When the Jewish people
won back their temple in Jerusalem, they found there was only enough holy oil to keep the sacred
light burning for one day. However, to their surprise, this small amount of oil kept the light burning
for eight days and nights, until the people had time to make more oil.
At the center of the Hanukkah celebrations is a candlestick (called a Menorah) that holds nine
candles. On the first night of Hanukkah the first candle is lit, and each day this candle is used to light
another candle, until on the eighth day, the last day, all the candles are lit. During Hanukkah, people
go to the synagogue (犹太教堂) to pray and to remember the miracle (奇迹) of the holy oil.
Hanukkah is a time for family and friends to come together. People exchange gifts and greeting cards,
and children go to parties. Parents often give their children money at Hanukkah. Potato cakes,
called latkes, are a traditional Hanukkah food.

relationship in India was almost divine (神圣的). If a person wanted to become the student of a teacher,
he or she had to live with the teacher, serve the teacher, engage in activities and also acquire knowledge.
Even kings were expected to follow these rules.
It was the second president of independent India, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, who raised the
Indian devotion to teachers to a new level. During his tenure (任期) as president he was once
approached by some citizens who wanted to celebrate his birthday. However, Dr. Radhakrishnan
declared that he would rather have his birthday observed as Teachers" Day. Since then, September 5h of
each year has been celebrated as Teachers" Day throughout India.
All educational institutions honor teachers on September 5th in various ways. In some cases, senior
students give teachers a day of rest by taking charge of classes. Some schools have ceremonies to honor
exceptional teachers. Students also organize cultural events and recognize the efforts of teachers by
giving gifts, cards and flowers. Articles on teachers and their achievements feature in print and on the
web.
In addition to these efforts, the government of India has set up the National Awards for teachers, to
be distributed (分配) on September 5th every year. Teachers selected for the Best Teacher Award
received a medal, a certificate and 25,000 Indian rupees as award money. Several private organizations
and institutions have also come up with such awards to recognize the contribution of teachers to bringing
up future leaders of the country.
Thousands of teachers are employed in Indian educational institutions. However, not every teacher
can qualify for the Teachers" Day awards. But the biggest reward that any teacher can get is the
recognition of students. And Teachers" Day is certainly that time in every year when pupils honor
teachers and let them know that their hard work and commitment is valued.
