041. The first English class
Although the Olympics ended after only 16 days, several songs composed for the Olympics became popular all over the streets in the following days, the hottest of which was "Me and You" sung by Liu Huan and female singers from London, England at the opening ceremony, and "Beijing Welcomes You" sung by the stars. Geng Hao directly used this topic as the opening speech of the first English class.
"My surname is Geng, and I'll be teaching you English classes in the future. Before class, I want to ask you, do you all sing Liu Huan's song "Me and You"?"
I had never been exposed to English classes before the fourth grade, so I merged with the third grade and learned English from scratch together. The third grade plus the fourth grade, a total of nine people, maybe because there are fewer people, or it may be because they are older, in short, when they heard Geng Hao's question, they replied with a normal voice "can sing", only Mo Bei and Zhang Dafei shouted out excitedly, Zhang Dafei raised his neck and said "no", like an uncle. Mo Bei said "yes" confidently.
Geng Hao was not comfortable with the "serious" class with only two troublemakers for a while, his fingers flipped through the notebook he was preparing for class, and continued to ask: "Then do you also know the English part of the English part sung by the British female singer?"
They said no, then shook their heads, and only the voices of Mo Bei and Zhang Dafei jumped out. Still Zhang Dafei raised his neck and said "no", Mo Bei and Zhang Dafei secretly competed, and shouted "yes" in a louder voice.
Geng Hao can ignore Zhang Dafei, who doesn't know anything, but he can't ignore Mo Bei, who can say anything, but he always feels that what she said is exaggerated, and looking around at other people has no intention of cooperating, Geng Hao had no choice but to look at Mo Bei, pointed at Mo Bei and said, "Mo Bei, you will get up and sing for everyone." ”
Mo Bei stood up very neatly, looked left and right, and then said awkwardly, "I have to have someone to sing with me." ”
Geng Hao asked, "Do you think anyone can sing with you?"
As expected, no one squeaked, only Mo Bei stood alone. Suddenly taking over such a calm class, Geng Hao was uncomfortable again. In the past, when I was in the first and second grades, even if I couldn't sing, the voice of the excited answer and the confidence would give you the illusion that "we can not only sing well". After a pause for a few seconds, Geng Hao adapted to this classroom atmosphere, and could only ask Mo Bei: "You can sing a section by yourself." ”
"Then I won't sing. Mo Bei twisted his body and sat back.
Geng Hao immediately didn't know what to say, just tossed for half a day, it was a waste of time?
"If you don't sing, you can sing again, aren't you fooling the teacher?" Zhang Dafei immediately hugged Geng Hao, turned his head and yelled at Mo Bei, who was sitting behind, and scolded with his neck, "If you can't, you won't say no!"
"Who said I wouldn't?" Mo Bei was unwilling to directly refute it, glaring at Zhang Dafei angrily.
"Then you will sing and you will not sing!" Zhang Dafei's mouth was like a roasted radish, and his words were vague, only the high-pitched tone was supporting his momentum.
"Okay, Zhang Dafei, sit down. Geng Hao called back Zhang Dafei, propped up the lectern with both hands, and wanted to motivate Mo Bei, so he also said, "Mo Bei, then you prove it and sing a few sentences?"
"I won't!" Mo Bei snorted and turned his head.
The request failed, Geng Hao was annoyed by her rude appearance, and endured Zhang Dafei, who was about to hug grievances, and decided to ignore Mo Bei, so as not to make himself unhappy. Geng Hao directly started his progress: "You must all know the melody, but you don't know the words, so you can't sing." Do you know why, the lyrics of the theme song "Me and You" of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics are in Chinese and English?"
"I don't know!" Zhang Dafei shouted without thinking, raising his neck. Geng Hao doesn't know whether his uprightness is good or bad, although it makes people sound very unpleasant, but there is no reason to blame. People have told the truth and cooperated with your class, as if there is no reason to blame at all.
"I know!" Mo Bei was the most excited one again, he raised his hand and stood up directly, if he had to be the most eye-catching one, he must let Geng Hao see it. Geng Hao felt even more pain in her head the moment she spoke, but he still gave her a chance, "Okay, Mo Bei, you say." ”
"Because the song is called "Me and You", it is two people. Mo Bei's voice was loud, and after speaking, he was full of anticrative expectations waiting for Geng Hao's comments.
Geng Hao couldn't cry or laugh, and had to admit that there was no problem with this answer, and immediately nodded in affirmation: "That's right, then why do you sing Chinese and English? Can't you sing German and Russian?" When Zhang Dafei was about to blurt out that he couldn't, Geng Hao took the first step and said, "If you don't know, you don't need to tell the teacher." Zhang Dafei immediately closed his mouth.
The students fell into thought, and it was Mo Bei who took the lead in raising his hand. Geng Hao raised his hand and motioned for her to answer: "Mo Bei, you talk about it." ”
"I don't know, teacher, you say. Mo Bei's voice was still loud, and he was full of confidence when he stood up.
Geng Hao was completely amused by her, and waved her hand to sit down: "Do the others know? Zhou Yu, you can talk about it. Geng Hao directly began to roll call, first ordering Zhou Yu, who he had noticed before. was able to notice Zhou Yu, and it was all because of Zhang Dafei. I knew that the two of them had a good relationship, but I didn't expect him to see the two of them sitting at the same table as soon as he entered the class today, and the relationship was really good.
Zhou Yu stood up, looked at Geng Hao silently, and didn't speak for a long time. When Geng Hao was about to ask again, Zhang Dafei next to Zhou Yu raised his hand and stood up, "Teacher, I'll say it for Zhou Yu." Zhang Dafei's expression couldn't be more serious, he couldn't be more serious, he looked like a righteous Ling Ran, and he didn't know that he thought he was going to fight explosives for his comrades. Zhou Yu tilted his head to look at Zhang Dafei, did not stop his behavior, and the meaning revealed in his eyes was a little grateful to Zhang Dafei for doing so.
Geng Hao felt that the two of them were a little interesting, and expressed curiosity about Zhang Dafei's abnormal behavior, and deliberately said, "The teacher wants Zhou Yu to answer." ”
Zhang Dafei's expression froze, and he turned his head to look at Zhou Yu next to him. Zhou Yu didn't speak, but Zhang Dafei seemed to have understood the meaning, turned his head more firmly, and said to Geng Hao with a serious expression: "Teacher, Zhou Yu said he didn't know, let me tell him for him." ”
Geng Hao saw the interaction between their cousins, and was not in a hurry to understand them for a while anyway, so he agreed to Zhang Dafei's request for the sake of the progress of the class: "Okay, you can talk about it." ”
"Because the Olympics are held in China, we are Chinese, and we speak Chinese!" Zhang Dafei straightened his spine, every word he said was sonorous and powerful, and his face was full of pride and pride. Geng Hao was infected by his emotions and momentum, and his heart suddenly ignited a patriotic soul. Why didn't he find out before that Zhang Dafei was so different?
"Well, Zhang Dafei is right, because the Olympic Games are held in China, so the theme song must be sung in Chinese, so why use English?" Geng Hao praised Zhang Dafei from the bottom of his heart this time, his eyes patrolled the class again, and finally fell on Zhang Dafei, "Zhang Dafei, can you still explain? If you can't, you can sit down and listen to the explanations of other students." ”
Zhang Dafei sat down as if he heard the military order, and by the way, he also pulled Zhou Yu to sit down. Geng Hao felt relieved, Zhang Dafei sat down and whispered to Zhou Yu, which roughly meant that he was very powerful just now, and his face was smiling like Sun Monkey. Zhou Yu looked at him and didn't answer, just grinned, revealing two tiger teeth, which looked better than Zhang Dafei's smile.
"Zhang Dafei, sit down and don't speak. Geng Hao couldn't help but remind, Zhang Dafei immediately held back what he was about to say, and then sat upright with a serious expression. Every time Zhang Dafei is named, Geng Hao is also used to it, and continues to order people, "Li Yan, you can talk about it." He also wanted to take this opportunity to find out how Li Yan, who liked English, who Sister Huang had been in front of him. In the first class, they knew each other, and he was not in a hurry to teach new knowledge, so he slowly guided and said slowly, first familiarizing themselves with each other.
Li Yan stood up, she was a quiet girl, she looked dignified and elegant, and said in pure Mandarin: "Because many people in the world now speak English, there are people from all over the world in the Olympics, so in order to make them understand, English is used." ”
Geng Hao was sure that this Li Yan was a good seedling, and immediately clicked on what he wanted to say, and nodded with satisfaction: "Li Yan is very right, because English is one of the widely used languages in the world now, and most international exchanges will use English." "Me and You" expresses that the world is like a family, so when choosing other languages to cooperate, we will also consider the world's more common English. If we want to go to the world in the future, we must also learn a common language in the world, and our country has begun to popularize English curriculum education very early, just so that everyone can go to the world in the future and deal with people from various countries. That's why we're starting to learn English now. Do you have any countries you'd like to visit?"
Geng Hao went down smoothly according to the content prepared on his lesson plan, and relied on various small questions to open up the students' desire to discuss and express themselves little by little. After a class, the effect is okay, the moment Geng Hao stepped out of the classroom door, he felt that the class status had made a qualitative leap, which was very different from the situation when he first came to Mocun Primary School.
After school, the third and fourth grade students saw Geng Hao, waved their hands and said, "Mr. Geng, goodbye!" Coincidentally, Geng Hao saw that Zhang Dafei and Zhou Yu were received by their parents to leave, and he spoke first, "Zhou Yu, Zhang Dafei, goodbye!"
Zhang Dafei and Zhou Yu looked at each other, and after waiting for a while, Zhang Dafei blushed first, and replied in a tone with a strong rural accent, "Mi, Aunt Mi, Geng, Gu De'er worship!" Zhou Yu followed behind, and also said, "Mr. Geng, goodbye!" The pronunciation of the words is much better than Zhang Dafei, Geng Hao felt that Zhou Yu was worth discovering, and pointed at Zhang Dafei with a smile, "Zhang Dafei, it's okay to learn more from Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu is more accurate than you." ”
