Chapter XXIII Guarantees
recognizance
You have graduated from junior high school, and you should give an account of the "Letter of Guarantee". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As mentioned earlier: As soon as the first half of the third semester of junior high school started, your homeroom teacher, Mr. Wang Xyu, communicated with your mother and asked you to transfer to another school. Mom argued with him for a long time, and finally reached an agreement: he gave you another half a year, and if you failed more than two exams in mathematics, Chinese, physics, chemistry, etc., you had to agree to his request, that is, transfer your student status to another school, and you yourself would continue to study in No. 7 Middle School. I didn't tell you the whole story, for fear it would hurt your self-esteem. Mom told you to stop worrying about so much and just study as hard as you can. During that time, you did change a lot and worked harder. Mom was full of hope and looked forward to a miracle.
However, maybe your foundation is too poor, things never go in a good direction, and in the final exam, your grades are still stagnant.
As soon as the second half of the semester started, my mother could only agree to a verbal agreement with Mr. Wang in desperation to transfer your student status to another school, while you were still attending classes in No. 7 Middle School and taking various exams in No. 7 Middle School, but the identity on the admission ticket had changed. Only you and your mother know about it, the school and Teacher Wang know about it, and the rest of the class doesn't know that you have been forced to transfer your school status. Of course, this is also a kind of protection for you, I don't want the smile to disappear from your face, I don't want you to carry a heavy burden of thoughts, I don't want my classmates to laugh at you and despise you, and I don't want your happy singing voice to disappear, otherwise my mother will never agree. Seeing this, you may ask, "Why do you want to say yes?" You don't have to transfer your status! If you don't transfer schools and Teacher Wang, you won't dare to do anything to your child! "I don't want to change schools, but I don't dare to gamble with the fate of my children. Teacher Wang Xyu told me (almost threatening): if you transfer to another school, the graduation certificate that the child gets when he graduates will still be issued by No. 7 Middle School; If you don't transfer your school status, then No. 7 Middle School will not issue a graduation certificate to your child, and there will only be a graduation certificate from the Education Bureau. In Chengdu, the influence of the No. 7 High School Diploma is greater than that of the Education Bureau, which is a sad fact, and it is also a microcosm of the current state of education in China. Mom, like most parents, is against judging talents by scores, but our power is too weak, and we are powerless to change the current situation in education.
I compromised, but I still didn't give in. I asked Mr. Wang to write a "Letter of Guarantee" to guarantee that you will study in No. 7 Middle School during the period, and that you will be issued a graduation certificate from No. 7 Middle School when you graduate. Teacher Wang said: "The school has never written such a guarantee letter to any student! We cannot set a precedent. I will definitely do what I promised, I am not the kind of person who is dishonest, and No. 7 Middle School is not a dishonest school. ”
I retorted to him: "When No. 7 Middle School recruited children, it promised to treat every child equally and not discriminate against students with poor grades. And now, you have to transfer the poor grades out to improve the admission rate of the seventh middle school. I don't know if this is the case in several other key high schools, I just know that my children should be treated equally when they enter this school, and now you just want to throw my children away like a burden, and I have been forced to agree, so why can't I ask you to write a "letter of guarantee"? My child has won honors for your theatrical program every time in your class, and his character is also very good, and I am very hurt that you have given him up like this. I should also ask the school to stamp the Pledge. If the society knows that your No. 7 Middle School is using this way to increase the admission rate, how will you deal with it? ”
Mr. Wang consciously took the blame, and he carefully wrote a "Letter of Guarantee", which roughly guaranteed that you would graduate from No. 7 Middle School, guarantee that you would continue to study in school, and so on, and then he took the "Letter of Guarantee" to the school for stamping. Seeing that Mr. Wang, who was only in his thirties, was bald on the top of his head, and his slightly old back was slowly moving away, I didn't feel good in my heart. To be honest, Mr. Wang is indeed a good teacher and very responsible for you. If it weren't for his education, your English wouldn't have improved so quickly. But now that he is on the side of the school, and you are on the weak side, I can only make sure that my child is not hurt more, and I think this should be what every parent wants to do. After about ten minutes, he turned back again. He told me that the school did not agree to stamp it, nor did it agree with him to write this "guarantee", and he decided to write the "guarantee" to me. I said to him, "If the school dares to do this, it should dare to take responsibility." Not daring to stamp it means that it knows that this is wrong. I know that you are very good to Hanlin, I really appreciate you, and I don't want to embarrass you, but I must have this assurance, because it is the school that abandoned my child first, and please understand me. "I took the Letter of Guarantee, carefully put it away, and left the school.
Later, when you took the high school entrance examination, you were already taking the exam as a student of another school, and I didn't dig into which school it was, and you didn't remember it. Perhaps I resisted this arrangement from the bottom of my heart, deliberately not thinking about it; Maybe you didn't take it seriously at all, because Seventh Middle School left you with a lot of happy memories, and you never excluded yourself and never felt hurt. When you read this recollection, did you have any other thoughts? Can you understand your mother's anger, helplessness, and sadness at that time?
When you graduated, when you got the "Graduation Certificate" of No. 7 Middle School and came back, my mother read it again and again, for fear that something would go wrong. It's just this piece of paper, how many people are bent over? In order to enter the seventh middle school, rich people would rather give dozens to millions of children to school, and those who have the right to write a note in exchange for this "graduation certificate"! Absurd education, absurd reality! The unfair distribution of educational resources has led to this strange phenomenon of squeezing out of heads to go to key schools, and has also led to a chaotic situation in which tens of thousands of people queue up at a school overnight.
When will it change? When can children receive a quality-based education?
Mom hopes that you will never be affected by these negative events, and that it will be just a small shadow that will soon be erased from your heart.
I hope you are still the kind you, I hope you are still the same person who never bargains with laid-off workers who do business, I hope you are still the same person who donates to the public welfare fund every birthday, and I hope you are still the one who cares about the children in the mountainous areas who often send them clothes!
Hope you are always happy! I hope your singing voice will always be high and passionate!
