Things that happened during the serialization (13)

At 6:20 in the morning, I was sitting on the bedside and listened to the wake-up call from the school, which was rapid and loud! Then an unknown pop music played.

A car whizzed past the window, interrupting the enjoyment of listening to music! My thoughts wandered, maybe one of the students got up late, and the anxious parents stepped on the accelerator.

This is the fourth morning after the start of school, the sky is still dark, and I have just sent my son out who is still sleepy but has a smiling face. I had no desire to fall asleep, so I simply put on my coat, leaned against the bedside alone, and wrote about what happened when I was reading with me.

Entering the second semester of high school, for most students of the same age, it means constantly catching up on classes to prepare for the general review of senior high school! But for my son, it was the final sprint to enter the training base for the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Joint Entrance Examination at the end of August this year and take part in the pre-entry placement test!

Prospective candidates, this term is also flaunted on the chest along with the yearning for the elite class of the new school!

"If you work so hard, you will only go to an ordinary university in the end! You must not be willing to accept it."

This sentence still rings in my ears. I went to Guangzhou Huaxing Education (Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Federation) last year. Exam training base) A fresh graduate blurted out this question while chatting with his son. The so-called ordinary university is actually what many people dream of. However, in the eyes of the top student, it is like a piece of fallen bread crumbs. It is better to use your time to choose other better goals when you bend down to pick it up.

The crumbs seemed to be destined to fall, destined for the noisy sparrows to fight for food! This is the difference in height, but it is a situation that you are afraid of and even dare not peek into. Maybe it's just a group of people at the same level as myself who found a good door early, that's all!

The Joint Entrance Examination for Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan is a joint examination system established by mainland China to provide children from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan with the opportunity to attend domestic universities. It is parallel to the domestic college entrance examination and is held around mid-May every year. The schools that can be filled in cover almost all well-known universities. Since it is a nationwide recruitment, there are no divisions and there are restrictions on application conditions. For students who have received mainland education since childhood, especially the education method in areas with high score lines, there will be certain advantages. However, it still takes a lot of effort to get the top spot.

The most important thing about accompanying a student is observation! In the four days since school started, my son has not been troubled by the post-holiday adjustment period. What also surprised me was that from the first day, he took the initiative to increase the review time by half an hour. For several days in a row, I had to drive him to bed as if he had been given blood.

I told my son these words several years ago, and I once pushed and dragged him with sore hands and a haggard heart. More than once, he warned me earnestly and sincerely not to waste time anymore, because what he loses is not what he gains.

The best advice is not a sentence from the future: "Look, I told you so!", not to mention that we are facing parents all over the world, who are worth paying and the most qualified to invest in education. child.

If you don’t do it now, nothing will happen in the future! Because my parents are not well educated. We don’t even know what it will be like to study well. What we can brag about is just what others say. After all, we have never taken that road to higher education.

But what I want to tell you is: reading feels really great! It can make you become a completely different person. Standing on the shoulders of knowledge, the world you see is completely different! Faced with other people's confusion, you may have already learned from books and gained some foresight. Some use ancient books, some modern texts, some foreign original documents, or some are science, philosophy, music, etc. to draw inferences.

And these are what I gained when you felt sorry for me to get up early and go to bed late to accompany you, and when you blamed yourself for depriving me of my life time!

Studying with you is not a sacrifice, it is a rest period for the mind to sort out the miscellaneous thoughts in the first half of life, a latent period for rethinking and accumulation, and it is also a path of self-cultivation for self-growth!

When you are doing it, he is watching; when he is doing it, you are learning; when he is happy, you are ecstatic; when you grow, he benefits.

In the quiet night, there are many students, a solitary lamp, the two of them rely on each other, their hearts are connected silently, they seem to have a sound, they cherish each other, what else can they ask for, occasionally they are melancholy, and they greet each other, they know each other, they are both teachers and friends, the outline of the emperor, minister, father and son, heaven, Inextricably linked for eternity.

"Dad, what does it mean to be at peace with yourself?" my son blurted out when we put down the books before going to bed.

"Is it a brainteaser?"

"No! Let me tell you. Ancient people said that when a friend comes to visit, he must arrange a place to accommodate him. It was later derived. You just want to take things as they come. "

"So, you are showing off what you have learned and are you going to make fun of me?"

"Oh! We two brothers are joking again. Why bother to see him outside?"

My son looked complacent, and we looked at each other and started laughing.

I was worried about trivial matters that day. Even though I pretended to be calm when I was with my son, I couldn't help but hide the loneliness that was evident in words. Being alone in a room every night, just like I can detect the slightest change in him, he may have already known that there is something in my heart! This joke may have been brewing for a long time. Not only did I feel warm, but I also felt deeply ashamed that it affected his precious time.

Looking at his face, looking at the figure who is half a head taller than me, he seems to be childish but also vaguely seems to be wise and foolish. Even though I was exhausted, I still didn’t forget to wear colorful clothes to entertain my bride. I couldn’t help but wonder, is the person in front of me really my son? If so, how lucky I am!

My son went upstairs to sleep! In order to create a quieter environment after school started, I told my wife not to rent a house with me this semester. I would stay with him alone until the summer vacation. The English in front of him is his weakness, and for me who is not very proficient in it, there is nothing he can do to help him! I simply asked the school teacher where my son will be training during the summer vacation, and an astronomical figure for us suddenly appeared!

The English goal should be set at the top level, which is about 135 points!

If this score is not accumulated over a long period of time, you can be familiar with it in daily life, and you like to read English and actively solve problems. Merely relying on rote memorization or lectures in class is absolutely insurmountable! What's more, it's easy to become lazy about weaknesses.

Thinking about myself, let alone after graduation, even my English was a mess during the schooling stage. Although I have picked up English books more than once in the past twenty years, I still have trouble getting in. I have failed many times and given up halfway! Is there really an uncrossable gap in this life? And being unable to transcend may be just a matter of drawing your own limits and not being willing to face it.

In the afternoon in the small town, the streets were still bustling with people. When they pass each other head-on or are attracted by each other's appearance or clothing, they will inadvertently take a second look. Sometimes when a strange woman meets a man's eyes, the next second she glances at the other woman holding tightly in the man's hand without even realizing it.

A middle-aged man of about 40 was walking quickly among the crowd. He seemed to be in a hurry to go somewhere. Or maybe the place he is going to is the place where he has been defeated repeatedly, and now he just wants to pile a new set of bones on top of it!

He came to a classroom and sat at his desk. He was the only one in the classroom called a student! In front of him was the first foreign English teacher he had ever met in his life. He wants him to forget everything he has learned and follow him in babbling like a child!

He listened hard and spoke loudly with his mouth open! The sound traveled so far away, as if it was dozens of kilometers away. The son who was both a teacher and a friend and studied hard could still reach his ears when he occasionally looked out the window tiredly and listened carefully!
