Chapter 176: Literacy
The little boy shook his head in confusion, and he pointed to the text printed on the chess pieces and asked, "What does this mean?"
Lin Yuxian himself is in big trouble, and it seems that no one except himself will give chess to the children in the orphanage, because they don't even know words. Lin Yu patted his head, if he had thought of this, it might be better to send Go than to send chess, but the rules of Go are too complicated, and even he can't play it.
Since the chess has been bought, it can't be wasted, so Lin Yu had no choice but to teach the little boy to understand the words on the chess first.
When he became a teacher, Lin Yu carefully counted a total of thirty-two pieces in chess, sixteen on the red and black sides. And the text of the chess pieces on each side is actually the same, for example, there are five pawns, rooks, horses, and cannons are all in pairs, and there are two on each side, and finally there is a single commander.
After careful calculation, the little boy had to memorize only seven words. Just compared to his age, and the fact that he had never been literate, it was still a very difficult task.
Lin Yu began to teach the little boy to recognize the words on the chess one by one, "You see that the word with five sons is a soldier, and the meaning of soldier is a soldier, the kind that fights with knives and guns on the battlefield, so do you understand?" Lin Yu has no experience in teaching children at all, and he doesn't know what level the little boy's understanding of words is, he wants to explain as much as possible, but there are only so many words of explanation that can be said.
Unexpectedly, after listening to his words, the little boy quickly nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Lin Yu's eyes lit up slightly, he didn't expect that when he said this, the boy would really understand, is it because he has the talent to be a teacher, or is the little boy really too smart?
Lin Yu had a special sense of accomplishment, he began to pick up the next chess piece on the chessboard, pointed to the Chinese characters on it and said to the little boy, "This character is pronounced horse, that is, the horse we often say rides, don't you also know zebra, they are all the same word..."
This time the literacy teaching lasted for a morning, Lin Yu felt that the little boy was still learning very quickly, after all, as the old dean said, he measured an IQ as high as 135, Lin Yu had to admit that such an IQ level may be much higher than himself.
The boy memorized all the Chinese characters on the chess, until finally, Lin Yu took out a chess piece from the chessboard casually, and the boy could accurately pronounce its pronunciation and say what it meant. Of course, Lin Yu didn't know what kind of level this represented, if a child of the same age who was going to school appeared next to Lin Yu now, he would definitely tell this brother that the teachers at his school only taught two Chinese characters a day at most...
After eating lunch and resting for a while, the little boy couldn't wait for Lin Yu to start teaching him the rules of chess, although he didn't understand what chess was, but those horizontal lines and chess pieces with different functions had aroused the little boy's strong desire to play.
Compared with teaching a little boy to read and write, the rules of chess are more complicated, Lin Yu can only start with the simplest chessboard, pointing to the Chu River in the middle and saying, "The rectangular one in the middle is called the boundary river, and the chessboard is divided into two camps, the left and right camps, once the boundary river is crossed, even if the attack on the enemy camp begins, you can imagine it as the picture of leading troops to fight on TV..."
Once it is said, there are still a lot of rules of chess, from the position of each chess piece, to the different ways of moving each class, and how to attack the boss in the camp, Lin Yu said endlessly, and the little boy's expression was as focused as ever, his eyes were staring at Lin Yu's every move on the chessboard, like a small chess game that opened up another new world for him.
It's a heartwarming image to watch, with a college student and a boy of five or six years old sitting on a branch in the corner of the orphanage's wall. The little boy is a child living in an orphanage, he has no literacy opportunities, he is full of yearning for the outside world, and another college student actually has nothing to do with children, but he shows up at the orphanage every week and brings a special gift to the little boy, this time the gift is chess that the little boy has never played.
The college student tried to set up all the pieces on both sides, and then began his first game with the boy. The little boy made a lot of mistakes in the process of playing, and he couldn't memorize all the rules he had just taught, so it was inevitable that the horse would jump wrong and take the elephant to the other side of the river.
At this time, the college student will return the wrong piece of the little boy, patiently re-explain the rules, and then guide him to the correct move. Therefore, the first game of chess was played for a long time, and in the end, it was naturally the coach in the little boy's camp who was generalized.
Although he lost the game, the little boy seemed very happy, because he showed the fun of strategizing and changing in chess, which was much more fun than his previous pranks.
So the two of them quickly started the second game, this time the little boy memorized most of the rules, and there were obviously fewer mistakes when the pieces were moved, and he even took advantage of the opponent's inattention to eat a horse that attacked his camp with a cannon.
The little boy laughed happily, and when the college student saw that his horse had been eaten, he slapped his head with hindsight, and there was a regretful oop in his mouth, and the two of them looked at each other and laughed, and the laughter flew out with the swaying branches and leaves of the big tree.
Time passed silently, the sun slowly slipped over their heads, and the pale golden afterglow of the setting sun began to appear on the horizon, but the big and small trees didn't seem to notice, they were completely immersed in their own game world...
The figure of the old dean came to the end of the orchard, where he had been standing for a long time, and from his position he only had to look up slightly, and he could see the leafy tree in front of him, which in the eyes of the little boy was an elephant in his animal circle.
The old dean and the little devil and the god of death actually get along very well, and the little devil put away his desire to play pranks as when he was accompanied by himself. In fact, according to the old dean's observation, the little boy has been quiet and well-behaved in the past week, and he has been with his mp3 almost all the time, and has not done anything that causes headaches for adults.
