Chapter 33: Hungry for knowledge, humble and foolish

Through our efforts, the initial recruitment of personnel is full of money. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Looking at the dazzling array of names and contact information on the registration form, we were all overjoyed.

Finally, one time, I was able to interview other students as an interviewer, and this was an improvement.

Coincidentally, Lin Chen urged me in advance to get the promotional poster out quickly, and I only had to miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

When I handed in the poster, the volunteer pet had already been done by the other four, so I guess I picked up a ready-made one.

At the first volunteer meeting, I was given a speech as one of the founders.

I haven't spoken at all about this kind of big scene, it's really a duck on the shelf. I had no choice but to take out the shameless spirit of the last speech contest and talk nonsense with everyone. Only this time, halfway through the pull, my heart stopped beating faster, and my face stopped red. The whole person suddenly calmed down, and this is an improvement.

"Hey, classmate, are you the one who went off topic in the last 129 speech contest. are all talking about patriotism, just say Cixi. ”

Just when I was in high spirits, someone in the audience broke my work, and I have to say that today's young people are a bit unusual. People are difficult to dismantle their relatives.

I forgot in an instant what I was going to say next.

I finally didn't feel nervous, and my face was red and my neck was thick again.

I smiled wryly and nodded. I don't know what to refute. The whole person panicked, and stepped down in a panic.

It's just a shame.

Back in the dormitory, I was exhausted, dragging my still somewhat broken soul and slumping in my chair, motionless. Zhou Hangyue raised the English Level 4 mock question in his hand and asked, "The Level 4 exam is about to begin, if you don't prepare, what are you running blindly in a day?" No one can see it. ”

I saw the four or six level mock questions in its hand, which suddenly reminded me of the old "Five-Year College Entrance Examination, Three-year Simulation" After I finished it, I had to peel off my skin if I didn't die. couldn't help waving his hand, and sighed vigorously: "The old man can't do it." I get dizzy when I see the question. Oops, no, I'm dizzy. He collapsed on the table and pretended to be asleep.

"Alright, don't pretend to be dizzy. BBC or VOA listening, whichever you want, I have it here, hurry up to make up the class, practice listening. Don't graduate by then, you won't even be able to get a decent certificate. ”

"You don't like to listen to Obama's speeches before, you can memorize everything from people's inaugural speeches to university speeches. And that Jobs' stayhungry, stayfoolish speech at Stanford, I've seen you shut yourself up in a lecture hall by yourself, reciting with emotion, and I almost believed that your fluency in English was innate. Come on, come on, show me another one. ”

Zhou Hangyue picked up the mock question in his hand and gave me a head up.

"Who are you messing with now? The mouth is getting more and more slippery, and people are getting more and more cunning. Then Uncle Qiao is my idol, and I imitate my idol myself, is it wrong? ”

"So first of all, tell me about your apple three-piece set, how is it prepared?"

Zhou Hangyue looked embarrassed, and I immediately realized that this might have poked him in the sore spot. Because his background is the same as mine, he is from the countryside, not to mention that he has an apple three-piece set, and he has never even seen all of them. By saying this, he is undoubtedly ridiculing and ridiculing him.

As soon as the conversation changed, I hurriedly quipped: "Why is the title of your idol's speech called "Stay Hungry, Stay Stupid"?"

"stayhungry, stayfoolish" translates not to "stay hungry, stay stupid," but to "hungry for knowledge, humble as foolish" from Stewart Brand's "Catalogue of the Whole Earth." It's really uncultured, it's terrible. ”

Zhou Hangyue looked at me with disdain, as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.

Well, I'll admit I'm a retard. Fortunately, he didn't pay attention to what I said.
