【解析】该短文属于记叙文。作者讲述了小学老师用很特别的方法，引导学生接受他人的观点。

1.句意是：想不想来因什么而争论，用remember（记得）。

2.从第二段第三句，和最后一段的第一句中，可知，难忘的是lesson。

3.两人观点不一致，前后有转折的意思，用However。

4.跟a good idea连用，用came up with“想出”最合适。

5.根据情节描述，两个孩子分别在讲桌的两边，也就是说，一边一个，套用one…the other…结构。

6.讲桌上的东西很大，颜色极易分辨，因此使用clear。

7.根据后文内容，我不相信……而引起的又一次争论，得知男孩说出来的是white。

8.我认为是black，男孩认为是white。我不相信男孩所说。

9.因…..而争论，用介词about“关于…”。

10.老师让我和男孩互换位置，用places。

11.作者开始坚持black，而现在改变位置，看到的是white，这时回答物体的颜色，观点明显变化，用had to“不得不”。

12.这个物体有两个不同的面，differently“不同的”。

13.只是从我这面看是黑色的。only+介词短语作状语是，句子半倒装。

14.站在…..位置。

15.通过别人的眼光看情况。
