Chapter 30: You've Been Admitted Exceptionally
For Jack Xia's words, the students are confused, what is the most important thing to communicate often? Eat, drink, and sleep!
Anyway, everyone usually looks at Jack Xia as an alien, so few people are listening to him carefully, or burying their heads in the review materials, or looking at the idle books under the table, and even passing notes and eyebrows.
"Mo Xiaoyu, what do you think is the most important thing in regular communication?" If no one responds, the students with good grades will be named, which is the usual trick of all teachers.
"Ah, I think it should be a common habit, that is, the customs of various places, just like Americans, they have different living habits from us, so the language style is different!" Mo Xiaoyu hurriedly stood up and said hesitantly.
She has been thinking about the events of that night in her heart, when her grandfather sees her now, he opens his mouth to let her remember to bring Liu Yi home to play, even her parents are abnormal, when she talks about Liu Yi, she is no longer full of disgust, but to say some words that the prodigal son will not change, she is wondering, whether to take Ah Yi home again on the weekend, or bring it back tonight, who knows that she was targeted by Jack Xia.
It makes sense that the history and culture of a place determine the language style of that place! But if you do stay abroad for a few years, you will find that it is not that simple! Jack Xia nodded in a rather elegant manner, and then pulled away his somewhat sissy voice and roared, "Today Jack wants to teach you the real trick of breaking through the spoken language, which is summarized by Jack's practice in those years abroad, that is, emotion, language is emotion!" ”
"We understand this, and Fakes' squid expresses our emotions very well!" As soon as he heard this, someone below immediately began to whisper, especially Xing Fatzi, who was sitting behind Liu Yi, and he could actually put his feet under Wu Jiawen's buttocks in front of Liu Yi, so you can imagine his sitting posture.
"Yes, anger is one of the strongest emotions, and in addition to anger, joy, frustration, sadness, love and hatred are all emotions and the soul of language!" Hearing the laughter below, Jack Xia not only did not get angry, but explained it by the way, and said it in English, "Let's do an experiment, classmate Mo Xiaoyu, you treat me as your lover, what will you say to me when you get up in the morning?" ”
Mo Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, with an embarrassed look on his face, and the classroom immediately burst into laughter, many people immediately looked at Liu Yi, the ambiguous relationship between the two is no longer news, and now Jack Xia wants Mo Xiaoyu to pretend to be his lover, and everyone wants to know what Liu Yi's reaction is.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xia, I don't know what to say!" Mo Xiaoyu also glanced at Liu Yi, and then said to Jack Xia with an apologetic face.
"Okay, sit down! Guy, please stand and let's take a test to see how good your speaking skills are! Seeing that everyone was looking at Liu Yi, Jack Xia walked over slowly, "Have you read Alexandre Dumas's book?" In the English version, Alexandre Dumas has a famous love saying, you listen, when we can't afford happiness, we should never go too close to the shop window and stare at happiness. ”
The last paragraph was said in English, although the students couldn't understand all of it, they could also understand the meaning, as if to warn Liu Yi, you are still a senior in high school, don't think too much.
"Liu Yi, right? I've seen your test paper, and it seems to be a perfect score for listening, so it's okay, if you can repeat the English paragraph I just said in its original form, I'll let you sit down! Jack Xia fiddled with the poet-like scarf around his neck, then glanced at Liu Yi and said playfully.
For high school students, spoken English is inherently weak, everyone is usually immersed in memorizing words, memorizing grammar and doing test questions, at most, on the way from school or when going home, put an earplug in the ear, practice listening, where can you say as much as you want, let alone repeat such awkward celebrity quotes.
"Brother Yi, I found out, happiness is happiness, shopwindow is a window, what does trancelike mean? I'm rubbing, isn't this fake foreign devil embarrassing! Seeing this, Xing Fatzi immediately began to help, and vigorously flipped through the English-Chinese dictionary under the table.
"Nima, fat man, this is a retelling, not a translation, you told Brother Yi about these birds?" Wu Jiawen was also racking his brains, and seeing that the fat man was messing with ideas, he hurriedly turned his head and scolded in a low voice.
"Rub, first translate the keywords into Chinese, and then find a way to come out of nonsense, you only scored thirty points in English, you don't understand!" Xing Fatzi bared his teeth and retorted.
Even Mo Xiaoyu and Su Qi were thinking about it while rustling on the paper, as if they were going to write down what they heard, and then pass the note to Liu Yi.
As for Zhang Bing, the little prince of the liberal arts class, they secretly laughed, Liu Yi can be said to have been out of the limelight for a while, and now they are very happy to see him in his head.
"If you really don't, just sit down, domestic students are all victims of exam-oriented education, no wonder you ......" Jack Xia waved his hand at Liu Yi disdainfully, but before he could finish speaking, Liu Yi opened his mouth.
"Teacher Xia, that sentence just now was not said by Alexandre Dumas, but by Shakespeare!" Liu Yi smiled indifferently, even after four hundred years, Shakespeare's influence in the human kingdom is still very great, how could he not know his famous words, "Actually, compared to this sentence, I prefer Shakespeare's other sentence, no matter how good things are, there is a day to lose, no matter how deep the memory is, there is a day to forget, no matter how beautiful the dream is, there is a day to wake up, Jack Xia, do you think this makes sense?" ”
Liu Yi narrated Shakespeare's words in English, which surprised the whole class at the moment, and they all said that Jack Xia's English was full of foreign flavor, but Liu Yi's sounded more like that.
Jack Xia was also stunned, he was surprised not only that a middle school student could speak English so originally, but also the meaning of his words.
This cold-looking guy seems to have penetrated his mind, yes, he has been back to China for several years, but he still can't adapt to life at home, so he has been letting himself live in the memories of that period of life abroad, that life is like a dream for him, he lives in a dream, and he can't wake up.
So much so that he would often use some famous quotes from foreign countries to pretend, in fact, he had not read many of their works at all, and he used them indiscriminately, just to make himself feel that he was still living in that church-like campus, so he mistook Shakespeare's words for Alexandre Dumas's famous quotes.
"Don't learn more about this kind of negative stuff, otherwise you won't be able to get into college!" was seen through by a student on the spot, Jack Xia was a little annoyed and angry, and said with a red face.
At this time, a figure appeared at the door of the classroom, shining leather shoes, a brand-new suit, and a two-eighth head of oil, which was Wang Li, the director of discipline.
"Liu Yi is not there?" As soon as Wang Li entered the door, he frowned and shouted loudly, holding a document in his hand, his eyes still fixed on it when he spoke, and his face was full of incredulity.
This couldn't help but make Mo Xiaoyu and Xing Fatzi both look bitter, thinking, it's over, Liu Yi just offended Jack Xia, and now his old enemy has come to the door again, it is a disaster that does not go alone!
"Strange, do you have any relatives in your family at Binhu University?" After seeing Liu Yi, Wang Li smacked his tongue.
Liu Yi didn't answer, just shook his head gently.
"The admissions office of Binhai University came today and sent an admission letter from the music department, and you have been admitted exceptionally!" Director Wang was stunned for a long time, and then said something that caused an uproar in the class.
