The next day, Yao Yi went out early in the morning and walked to Qunying Street at about 8 o'clock, but on both sides of the street, students of different heights and different costumes could be seen walking into Shangyang English's teaching building one after another, and most of them were full of sleepiness.

It's really pitiful to think about, these children only have weekends every week and don't have to rush to school to participate in morning reading, but they still have to crawl out of the warm bed early in the morning and rotate in the cram school of various subjects.

In fact, parents may not understand the truth of over-the-top, but no one dares to let their own children stay at home to rest when all other people's children are participating in tutoring.

As for whether the child can bear it?

Everyone else can stand it, why can't you stand it? If you can't endure hardship now, what can you do when you grow up?

"Hey!" Yao Yi shook his head slightly, throwing all the disturbing thoughts and sleepiness out of his head, and strengthened his determination to do something for these children.

On your own, you can't change the social atmosphere or parents' minds, but you may be able to change the teaching methods of training institutions, so that students who are not good at rote memorization can easily learn English.

It's a good habit to wake up early, but if you go to bed early and let the students memorize the words early, won't they be able to go to bed early?

With this idea in mind, Yao Yi found the classroom for the first class of the day according to the class schedule, and sat in the last row of the classroom to wait for the auditorium.

Yesterday, President Li said that generally speaking, on the premise of completing their own work, teaching assistants can audit the courses of other lecturers and learn from experience.

Yao Yi wants to use the deductive method as the basis to sort out a vocabulary textbook, he must first understand the overall level of the students, and he can't get into the public school classroom, so he can only start by auditing the tutoring courses of each grade.

At half past eight, the bell rang, and a male teacher with a Mediterranean hairstyle entered the classroom on time, and the students shouted Teacher Wei in unison, but did not stand up.

After Mr. Wei stood on the podium, his eyes swept around, and finally landed on Yao Yi.

Yao Yi was about to declare his identity, but he pointed to the student next to him and said, "Today's lecture on the paper, first share it with the newcomer next to you, and take the paper for him to go to the copy shop next door to copy it during class." ”

Is this thinking of yourself as a transfer student? Yao Yi blinked, didn't speak, and planned to explain after class.

"I've said this many times, and I'm afraid you don't remember it, so I'll say it again. The college entrance examination will be held in June next year, but I believe you know what your English level is. Time is so tight, I can't finish teaching you the knowledge points from the beginning, and the best way now is to memorize the test papers, so if you don't want to fail the college entrance examination, don't complain about how hard it is to learn English. Teacher Wei finished speaking slowly, and took out a mock paper marked with standard answers, "Come, start with single choice." Can I speak to, back!"

At the sound of the order, the students opened their mouths one after another, reciting the original sentence composed of the correct answer to the question as if they were reciting an ancient poem, which shocked Yao Yi's tongue.

Memorize test papers?

What kind of high-end operation is this?

Is it a strange product of test-oriented education, or is it a profound trick to improve scores?

Taking advantage of the cover of the recitation students, Yao Yi asked the student next to him in a low voice: "Do you usually memorize test papers?"

"Yes, memorize two every week. The boy looked helpless, and the pen in his hand spun like a windmill.

"Memorize the whole roll?"

"Single choice gestalt full memorization, reading comprehension selection memorization, correction of mistakes in the composition of the dictation, random inspection if you do not pass the copy papers. The boy looked at Yao Yi sympathetically, and said with a wry smile, "If I were you, hurry up and change classes, and when your parents are brainwashed by Wei Bald, you can't run away if you want to." ”

After learning English for so many years, the first time I heard about the learning method of memorizing and copying papers, Yao Yi couldn't help but ask: "Why do you want to memorize papers?"

"Cultivate a sense of language, he said that we can't learn the knowledge points, it's better to memorize the real questions and mock papers, anyway, the questions are tested every year, and after memorizing for a long time, you can choose the right one with the feeling. Damn, if you want me to say, wouldn't it be better to have time to memorize the papers, so it's better to talk about the knowledge points?"

Speaking of this, the boy suddenly sighed and shook his head to refute his statement: "But what Wei Bald said is also right, we don't usually study very hard, we really teach us knowledge points like teachers in school, we can't learn it, or just memorize the test papers." ”

"Memorize test papers...... Useful?" Yao Yi felt that her understanding of English learning had been refreshed.

"Who knows, maybe it will work, I've memorized it for three months, and my single-choice and gestalt scores have improved a lot, but my reading comprehension is still the same. After the boy finished speaking, he looked up and saw Teacher Wei staring at him, his neck shrank in fright, and he obediently recited the cloze essay.

Listening to the students reciting the texts as if they were chanting scriptures, and sitting for most of the class without gaining anything, Yao Yi finally found out before the end of class.

When talking about the correction of a certain verb to noun in the short essay correction, Mr. Wei slapped the paper in his hand on the podium and said: "This verb changes the name, you have to take the test every year, and you just don't do it right, this paper is tested, and there are less than five correct changes to this question, I really don't know how you learned!"

The boy sitting next to Yao Yi didn't take this "score question", and muttered depressedly: "After memorizing so many papers, who doesn't know how to change their name, knows what is the use, and can't remember what to do if they can't remember the noun form." ”

Yao Yi glanced at the test paper and saw that the modified verb was "activate", and couldn't help but be surprised: "This, need to be remembered?"

"How do you know what the noun form is if you don't remember?"

The boy rolled his eyes, and Yao Yi seemed to see the words "favorability-1" on his face.

"Didn't your teacher teach you that all verbs ending in ate as a verb suffix are noun forms when they go to e to ion?"

"Is that true?" the boy was stunned, "Really?"

Yao Yi asked rhetorically: "What is the noun of educate?"

“education。 The boy blurted out.

“dominate?”

“domination。 ”

“create？”

“creation。 ”

“donate？”

"Donation, what the hell?" the boy was dumbfounded, and the pen spun between his fingers flew over the three desks and landed on the forehead of another classmate.

"You two!" Mr. Wei slapped the table again, "You have to talk out!"

The boy didn't hear it, and asked Yao Yi with the joy of discovering a new world: "No, all the words ending in ate are changed like this? Replacing e with ion is a noun? What suffix did you just say? Verb suffix?"

"What about you two! Still talking! You talk about me, why don't you come up and talk about it?"

Perhaps feeling that his majesty as a teacher was being challenged, Mr. Wei was angry, and he was still angry when he questioned him, and threw out a small piece of chalk.

The chalk drew an ugly arc in mid-air, and it happened to fall on Yao Yi.

Looking down at the shallow chalk mark on his chest, Yao Yi, who was going to apologize, changed his mind, patted his clothes, and got up to leave his seat.
