Mr. Thompson is always kind and patient. When he wants something done, he’ll ask. “Would you mind getting this information for me, please?” Mr. White is just the opposite. He usually shouts across the room, “Get me the papers, and hurry up.”

It’s quite warm in here.” Then he turned to me, “I’d appreciate very much if you’d mail these letters for me.”

We couldn’t imagine why he was behaving so strangely. Should we give him some medicine? Or should we send him to the hospital?

Severus Snape/John Nettleship

Severus Snape is a skillful teacher teaching magic in Harry Potter. The writer, J．K. Rowling, once said that the character was based on a teacher of hers.
