Liu Sihan stood at the door, his heart pounding like a rabbit. She tried to calm her tension by inhaling and exhaling, and then she raised her hand and knocked on the door with trepidation.

"Come in!" A magnetic voice came out, but it was so familiar to her that her heart still trembled.

Liu Sihan pushed open the door, walked in with his head held high and confident, and closed the door casually.

After Liu Sihan entered the interview room, he quickly looked around the room. The interview room is a small conference lecture hall, about 20 square meters. There was a table on the stage in the lecture hall with a box of chalk and a chalkboard eraser on it. There is a large chalkboard on the wall behind the desk, and tables and chairs are neatly arranged underneath. The light blue curtains swayed in the wind, and the windowsill was filled with a lush pot of pothos and a pot of cactus, everything seemed so vibrant.

In the end, her eyes fell on the interview staff in the audience, and there were ten interview staff in the first row of the audience. The interviewer sitting in the middle was the principal Li Guoqiang, and next to him sat Yi Muyang, and she was not very familiar with the other interview staff.

When Liu Sihan saw Yi Muyang, Yi Muyang happened to be looking at her with a serious face. The moment their eyes met, her heart still trembled slightly, and she suddenly lost her proportions. Although she and Yi Muyang have broken up, they haven't seen each other for a long time. But when they met again, Liu Sihan's heart was still beating as when they first met. There was an inexplicable feeling in her heart, and she didn't understand why she was like this.

Yi Muyang may have sensed Liu Sihan's panic, and a reluctant smile appeared on his face. Although that smile looked so bitter, his eyes were still full of encouragement for Liu Sihan's love.

With Yi Muyang's encouragement of his love in his heart, Liu Sihan quickly adjusted his state. She steadied and smiled, and quickly glanced around at the ten interviewers seated in the first row.

"Examiners, good afternoon, I'm candidate No. 15." After Liu Sihan finished speaking calmly, he bowed deeply to the interview staff. Then she took the outline in her hand and turned to the podium.

For Liu Sihan, who has broadcasting experience at a university campus radio station, she thinks she will never have stage fright at any time. But the moment she stood on the podium, facing the ten interview staff in the audience, she still felt a little nervous in her heart. She tried her best to keep herself calm, and at the same time tried her best to recall her university teacher's lectures in class, so that she could quickly get into the lecture.

"In everyday life, each of us is not isolated. We have parents, siblings, classmates, friends, and all kinds of relationships with each other. The same is true of the international community, which also has reciprocal relations among its major member States, between international organizations and between States and international organizations, which constitute what we commonly call international relations. Of these, the main one is the relationship between countries. What are the factors that govern international relations in terms of their richness, diversity and variety? These will be the topics that will be explored in this lesson. ”

After Liu Sihan finished speaking, he picked up the chalk on the table and wrote a few big characters: The decisive factor in China's handling of international relations: national interests.

"In state relations, there are political relations, economic relations, cultural relations, military relations, and so on. Among them, the most basic are economic relations, and the most active and important are political relations. Among the various complex relationships, the most important manifestations are competition, cooperation and conflict, and national interests are the decisive factor in international relations. Can you give an example of why national interests are the decisive factor in international relations? Liu Sihan looked around at the interview staff in the audience.

"Which student in the middle of the first row is going to answer this question?" Liu Sihan looked at Yi Muyang with a smile on her face, and after a few seconds of pause, she began to cite the 2003 U.S. war in Iraq as an example.

"This classmate said very well, please take a seat." Liu Sihan looked at Yi Muyang with a smile on his face and gave him a thumbs up.

The interview staff in the audience saw that Liu Sihan did a good job in mobilizing the classroom atmosphere, and they all smiled after looking at each other.

Seeing that the interview staff was amused by herself, Liu Sihan felt as if she was not so nervous at the moment. She looked at the audience and said: "In short, the reason why the United States launched the Iraq War was to obtain national interests, including security, economic, and political interests. There are many factors influencing complex and volatile international relations, among which national interests play a decisive role. Safeguarding national interests is the motive and destination of a sovereign state's external activities. Each country formulates a corresponding foreign policy in order to safeguard its own national interests, and the process of implementing each country's foreign policy is also the process of realizing national interests. ”

"National interests can be divided into three levels: the first is sovereign interests, that is, interests related to the independence, survival and security of the country, which are the most basic interests of the state; The second is the interests of development, that is, the development of the domestic economy and the strengthening of political and economic ties with foreign countries, the enhancement of foreign competitiveness, and the safeguarding of the country's economic interests; the third is the interest of participation, that is, the creation of a good image of the country in the international community, and the enhancement of the country's status and role in the international community, so as to better participate in international affairs. Therefore, it can be said that national interests are related to the rights and interests of the country's survival and development. ”

"National interests can be divided into political, economic, security, military, cultural and other fields; What are the main elements of our national interests? Security interests, political interests, economic interests. ”

"The common interests of countries are the basis of national cooperation, and the opposition of interests is the root cause of national conflicts. Since each country handles relations between countries with its own interests as the supreme principle, complex interest relations between countries have been formed. That is, there are both common and opposing interests between countries. ”

"Under the premise of common interests, the pursuit of national interests by one country not only does not harm the pursuit of its national interests by another country, but is conducive to the pursuit of its national interests by another country, and thus the common interests are the basis of national cooperation. Such as fighting international crime, global pollution, countering terrorism, countering the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, international trade, and so on. ”

"Under the premise of opposing interests, the pursuit of the interests of one country will inevitably harm the national interests of another country, and therefore the conflict of interests is the root cause of national conflicts. Such as territorial disputes, resource allocation, trade disputes. Therefore, the international community needs to coordinate the interests of countries and deal with contradictions between countries in order to promote the healthy development of international relations. ”

......

Let me summarize the main points of this lesson: the content and form of international relations are complex and diverse, and national interests are the decisive factor in international relations. National interests mainly include security, political and economic interests, safeguarding national interests is the purpose and destination of a sovereign state's external activities, and national strength is an important factor affecting international relations. China regards safeguarding national interests as the highest criterion for handling international affairs, and constantly enhances its national strength to safeguard its own national interests. At the same time, it is necessary to safeguard the common interests of the people of all countries in the world.

After Liu Sihan finished speaking, he turned around and wrote a few questions on the blackboard: Question 1: What is the root cause of cooperation and conflict between China and the United States? Question 2: In 1982, Grandpa Deng talked about the Chinese government's basic position on the Hong Kong issue and how to safeguard China's national interests. From Grandpa Deng's exposition, what enlightenment do you get from the question of how to safeguard China's national interests?

Let's turn to page 100 of the book, do the class exercises that follow, and then think about a few questions written on my blackboard. If you don't understand anything in this class, you can always raise your hand and signal to me.

After Liu Sihan finished speaking, he stepped off the podium and began to walk around the interview room. At this time, she looked up and forgot to glance at the clock above the blackboard, which had been exactly 15 minutes. She let out a long sigh of relief, thinking to herself that she was glad she hadn't run out of time. She glanced again at her neatly laid book on the blackboard, and suddenly smiled with satisfaction.

Taking advantage of Liu Sihan's patrol in the classroom, the interview staff in the audience put a lecture record in front of everyone. A series of scores were made on Liu Sihan's voice in the lecture, etiquette expression, board book situation, lecture ideas, mobilization of classroom atmosphere, etc.

After Liu Sihan made a round, he re-stepped onto the podium and looked at the interview staff with a smile on his face.

"Candidate No. 15, please introduce yourself." Li Guoqiang crossed his hands on the table and looked at Liu Sihan on the podium with a smile on his face.

"Hello examiners, I'm candidate No. 15......" Liu Sihan was stunned for a few seconds and thought about it, and looked at the interview staff in the audience with a confident face.

"Why did you apply for a teacher at our school?" Li Guoqiang looked at Liu Sihan and continued.

"Because I love teaching very much, and being a teacher has been my dream since I was a child......

"What do you think of her?" After listening to Liu Sihan's words, the principal looked at Yi Muyang with a smile.

"I think that's a good thing to say." Yi Muyang suddenly laughed.

After the interview, Liu Sihan turned around and was about to leave, but at this time she received a call from Yi Muyang.
