Continued: Amazed the crowd
In this era, the foreign language department is completely set by the school according to the actual situation of student resources, and it is no longer as rigid as before, and there is a lot more flexibility, but the learning content is not easy. English and French are compulsory, but Korean, Japanese, Italian, German, ...... These are electives.
English and French are one of the basic requirements that many parents have for their children, and other languages are relatively not common choices for them. Being proficient in these two required languages is considered quite good, and it is even more remarkable if you are proficient in the languages in the elective courses.
Mingdu University's foreign language teaching is one of the best in China, and it focuses on enabling students to apply what they have learned. The most important characteristic of the students here is that they are strong in foreign languages, and even if they are not foreign language students, they are still quite good at English. Parents also believe that this is in line with the future family heir's appearance in high society circles.
If a child from a wealthy family, but does not speak even a few foreign languages or does not understand them in a certain need of an occasion, he will be laughed at.
People in this era have paid more and more attention to their own knowledge and cultivation, not just watching the growth of wealth, they are more eager to make themselves and the next generation no longer a tyrant, but a real aristocracy. They send their children not only to learn knowledge, but also to learn etiquette, socialization, and conversation, including the shaping of the body and the cultivation of temperament, so as to create a high-quality crowd from the inside out.
Since it is a high-tech era, of course, it has changed a lot from more than ten years ago. A bulletin board next to the school playground, which is the most frequented place for students.
The bulletin board is an electronic device, and on a large screen erected high, you can query the ranking of all students in each department, including each elective course, every grade, can be seen on the bulletin board.
Don't worry that the bulletin board will bring too much pressure to the students, because in this era, the students have extremely strong psychological endurance, and their families will no longer force their children to study to death, because they all have enough financial strength to make their children live well. In fact, the main purpose of sending them to school is to build a network of high-society contacts for children. As for grades and scores, parents don't pay as much attention to them as they did in schools many years ago.
This naturally creates a phenomenon - parents do not force them, but children study very hard. Just because, in the atmosphere of the school, they deeply feel that if they don't work hard, they can't do it, they are surrounded by children from good families, and when they graduate in the future, what will you do to compete with others? What do you rely on to lead your family down? In a group of children who are from good families and work hard enough to be motivated, you can only gain a foothold in a strong competitive environment in the future if you are better than others.
What is the best thing that Mingdu University gives to its students? That's the kind of mindset that allows students to learn on their own initiative.
Consciously doing it is better than being forced to do it, the effect is obvious, and it is gratifying for parents and teachers, so that the school can do better and better.
In such an environment, there will be a healthy competition among students, and every time they see the results on the bulletin board, they will know how to adjust and work hard for themselves, without parents telling them.
Compared to previous generations, this generation of children is more independent and flexible in choosing the life they want. That is, you can study, and you will not waste a lot of spare time. When your main class is a bit boring, then go to your favorite elective class. Listen to wine culture, practice vocal music, or pinch ceramics, carry a sketchpad to collect style, and take a camera to take pictures...... Wait a minute. With such a colorful study life, and without the pressure and pressure of scores, their days are full of enjoyment of youth and enthusiasm, and they live very freely.
Guo Ziqi, the school flower in the foreign language department, has been the dream of many boys since she entered the school*. And now there is another Ji Xuewei...... To be precise, Ji Xuewei was also a school flower before she went abroad for treatment, and now that she is back, naturally there is an extra school flower in this school.
In order to distinguish the two flowers of Guo Ziqi and Ji Xuewei, the boys gave Ji Xuewei a nice nickname - Snow Beauty.
Ji Xuewei is slim, delicate and delicate, has a very fairy temperament, and prefers white clothes, plus she has a weak beauty, so the title of Snow Beauty is still quite suitable for her.
Yan Yan took the initiative to ask Tong Fei to arrange her in the same grade as Ji Xuewei, in order to take a closer look and see where Ji Xuewei and Yan Shengrui have been?
Poor Yan Yan's little meat dun has not seen Yan Shengrui for a few years. This is all to blame for the strict monitoring of the royal family, after sending Yan Yan to a well-known university abroad, she was strictly guarded, and she was not allowed to have private contact with outsiders unless she graduated. Even if she wants to meet Yan Shengrui, she must have the consent of the royal family. Over the years, she and Yan Shengrui have met several times and often have video calls, but in the past year, the two have not seen each other once. This is the rule of the royal family, and when Asa went to study abroad, he was also guarded in this way, and he could not breathe a sigh of relief until he graduated.
Why did Yan Shengrui not recognize Yan Yan when there were meetings and video calls?
It's a bit dramatic to say. Before Yan Yan went abroad to study, in the palace, at that time she was slim, not fat, looking at the water and spirit, amazing beauty, attracted the attention of many powerful people, and they all wished to marry this beautiful little princess of the royal family.
But during the period when she went to school, for three years, she grew into a horizontal development, and her weight soared, and she became a little fat.
At that time, Yan Shengrui saw her, but he never disliked her, and he was so affectionate every time. And Yan Yan has made up her mind to lose weight in the past year, just because she is thinking that she is about to graduate, she wants to run to Yan Shengrui as soon as possible, how can she go with a body of fat?
This motivation has allowed Yan Yan to successfully lose weight and become what she is now, more beautiful, more watery, and more delicate than before. Coupled with the fact that she deliberately hid herself, it was strange that Yan Shengrui could recognize it.
At this moment, Yan Yan was sitting in the classroom of the Department of Foreign Languages, leisurely looking at a book on the table...... Don't think that this is a textbook, this is a comic book, and it is an out-of-print comic that Yan Yan finally collected on the Internet.
On the podium, the teacher was lecturing, and seeing that the students below were very serious, the teacher was also very pleased, and secretly felt that these children from rich families were not so difficult to teach, but they were very polite, cultivated and orderly, and few people were talking to each other below. This situation surprised the female teacher who had just arrived, and she became more and more interested in lecturing.
However, the good times did not last long, and slowly, the teacher noticed that the student sitting in the back row was always laughing for no reason. Is her lecture so funny?
Originally, as long as the order of the students was not too bad, the teacher would turn a blind eye to it, but someone deliberately targeted Yan Yan, so the girl sitting in the front row of Yan Yan suddenly turned her head and stared at her comics, then picked it up in surprise, and then accidentally fell to the ground.
At this time, the classmates next to him also saw it clearly, it was actually a comic, and they were in an uproar immediately......
"Comics? Whose? ”
"Wouldn't you, you still read comics in class?"
“……”
is exposed, the teacher's face can't be hung up, she can't care if she doesn't want to, at least she has to save face.
The teacher walked over sternly and held the cartoon in his hand, and at this time, the girl "kindly" reminded her: "It's the cartoon of the glasses girl." ”
Glasses girl?
Yan Yan is still in a daze, are they talking about her?
Sure enough, all eyes were on her.
The teacher said with a little displeasure, "You...... I guess I know a lot about today's lesson. So, memorize this sample essay just now. ”
Suddenly, the classroom resounded with the ridicule and ridicule of the classmates, and they looked at Yan Yan gloatingly.
Guo Ziqi was even more disdainful, just now it was her best friend, the fat girl, who got Yan Yan's cartoons to the ground.
Ji Xuewei also frowned, she knew this girl with glasses, wasn't she with Yan Shengrui yesterday afternoon?
It's really non-stop! Glasses girl, can you be a little more "outstanding"?
Everyone thinks so, and the teacher asked the glasses girl to read and memorize this whole model text, which is obviously to give the glasses girl a little hardship.
This is a sample essay, to be exact, a classic line from a Hollywood movie, how easy it is to memorize, the students present asked themselves, they can only read it according to it, if they want to memorize, it will take at least an hour or two to prepare.
Yan Yan wrinkled her little face, looking at the comic book in the teacher's hand with hope, she hadn't finished reading it yet, and she was looking at it......
The naughty Yan Yan said seriously at the moment: "Teacher, if I can memorize it, can you give me back the comics?" ”
Looking at this black and ugly*, the teacher was speechless, this was undoubtedly the most strange student she had ever seen in this school.
Seeing that the teacher didn't speak, Yan Yan bit her lip, her white and tender little fingers habitually wrapped around her hair, and her pink lips gently opened and closed......
Next, it's time to witness the miracle again!
The people present refreshed their hearing again and again with Yan Yan's voice, and they were all stunned. And the teacher, not only stunned, but more surprised.
Yan Yan's authentic and extremely fluent English, if you don't look at your face, you will feel that this is a person from country M who is talking. And the most amazing thing is that she actually separated the dialogue between the men and women in this line to express Xiàn, and the voice of the male and female came from her mouth, which is very similar to the voice of the male and female protagonists in this movie.
I really can't see that Yan Yan still has the ability to imitate other people's voices, so vivid, as amazing as her English speaking level!
