Since Huaqing University has already visited me, it would be unreasonable not to visit my alma mater.
The next day, Jiang Hua carried some gifts, which were not expensive but showed his sincerity. The first thing he came to was the School of Foreign Languages. This is how people are so sophisticated. If you don’t go back to your alma mater to take a look, you will be easily criticized if you tell others.
People criticize.
Under the guidance of the students, Jiang Hua came to Dean Huang's office, where the old man wearing glasses was writing something at his desk.
Jiang Hua gently opened the door and said flatteringly: "Old Dean, the students are here to see you. You have been doing well lately."
Dean Huang took off his glasses, looked at Jiang Hua, and said with a smile: "It's you, kid. You don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. You definitely didn't come here specifically to see me."
"Students are so sincere, old dean, what you said really chills me."
Dean Huang leaned back in his chair and said, "Don't say secret words in front of people. As soon as you smile, I will know what your intentions are."
Jiang Hua put down the gift in his hand: "Old Dean, I'll open some foreign food for you. This is the coffee I brought back from Xiangjiang, and the Western pastries I just bought from the embassy area. These are just fresh out of the boiler. Please try them.
.”
Dean Huang said with a smile: "Boy, don't look at me because I'm usually very conservative, but you think I'm really ignorant. I also studied abroad."
Jiang Hua opened the pastry box, and then without being particular, he made a cup of coffee using the guest glass on the old dean's table and brought it to the old courtyard.
"Old Dean, try it while it's hot, you can enjoy it too."
The old man took a sip of the coffee and then took a bite of the cake. He sighed and said, "It's been so many years since I've had coffee or cake. I wish I could eat a piece of cake and drink a cup of coffee when I was studying abroad."
, that can be considered a kind of enjoyment.”
"Old Dean, I see you were writing at your desk just now. What are you writing?"
Dean Huang picked up the manuscript and handed it to Jiang Hua and said, "I'm about to retire, right? Now I've handed over most of my work. Keeping it here is equivalent to being a treasure of the house. I've been busy all my life, and suddenly I'm free."
It’s boring to come down, so someone told me, why don’t you write something.”
Jiang Hua flipped through the manuscript: "Which English book are you translating?"
Dean Huang scratched his head: "I wanted to compile a collection of English short poems from the past 100 years, but I have been translating them for more than a week. I haven't translated this short poem yet."
Dean Huang said with some embarrassment: "I understand English and French. When I was studying abroad, I read many original works in English and French, and also read the translated works of Mr. Yang Jiang and Mr. Fu Lei. Looking back at my own translations, I
I can’t help but ask myself, what kind of thing am I translating? It’s really not as good as the literary talents of these two gentlemen.”
Jiang Hua said flatteringly: "Old Dean, you are a practical person. Unlike Mr. Yang Jiang and Mr. Fu Lei, you don't need to compare your translation works with those two gentlemen. If you really want to write something
What, how about you write your own memoirs, write about how you built our country, and write about your journey in the past half century."
Dean Huang shook his head: "Forget it, I have made contributions and sins in half my life, so I don't want to write it down to make future generations laugh."
"Then why don't you write an English textbook or something? Our country is now open and will become more and more in line with international standards in the future. English is the most common language in the world. Now universities have begun to comprehensively study English. I guess it will definitely be in the future.
It is about to be extended to primary and secondary schools, so you can write a simple and easy-to-understand reference book for primary and secondary school students to learn English, and add another brick and tile to the construction of our country."
Dean Huang's face was filled with joy and he said happily: "Your idea is really good. Then I will also use my remaining energy to give the students a learning tool. The delicious pastries you brought me today have been given to me again."
Such a good idea, tell me, if you want any help from the teacher, the teacher will never refuse."
Jiang Hua pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "I came here specifically to visit you today. After seeing you, I will stop by the School of Materials to run some small errands."
Dean Huang pointed and smiled: "Boy, you said the order was reversed. You came to the School of Materials specially.
Let’s do something important, and then take a look at me as a teacher.”
"Teacher, if you say that, you will have no friends."
Dean Huang was stunned for a moment, not immediately understanding the meaning of this joke, but he figured it out after a little thought.
"Okay, since you, the student, are willing to recognize me, the teacher, as your friend, then I think you came here specifically to see me today, and then went to do some errands along the way."
Jiang Hua said happily: "Hey, that's right. I came here specifically to see you, my old friend, today."
Dean Huang sealed the pastry box, and Jiang Hua said, "Dean Ma, why don't you come with two more pieces?"
"I'm old, I don't want to be greedy anymore. I'll take the rest home to pamper my little granddaughter. The little girl likes to eat this sweet and glutinous thing..."
Dean Huang put the things in the drawer, and then walked out: "Let's go, we took a walk and walked to the School of Materials Science and Technology."
Jiang Hua quickly said: "No, I won't work for you anymore."
Dean Huang waved his hand: "It's okay. The doctor also told me that moderate exercise will help my health."
Jiang Hua held the yard and asked with concern: "Are you feeling well?"
"It's okay, it's just that my blood pressure is a bit high. I'm taking medicine, so it's nothing serious."
Jiang Hua helped Dean Huang walk out. Dean Huang asked, "You said this reference book, where should I start?"
"You should have experience in this. Back then, you were able to cultivate all of us who had no cultural foundation into talents. We were able to master listening, reading, and writing proficiently. Reference books are for middle school students in schools. Their foundation is better than ours. This
You haven’t got it all at your fingertips yet.”
"Hahahaha, you have a lot of confidence in me."
Jiang Hua smiled and said: "You are a veteran on the education front. I do have confidence in you. Let me give you a small suggestion. The reference book should be informative and fun. Children like to play, and it should be interesting."
Teach with pleasure.”
Dean Huang was so confident this time that he said: "If you say so, I am really experienced. I have taught my grandson and granddaughter English. They have a vocabulary of 2,000 when they are less than ten years old, and they like it very much."
I still have some tricks up my sleeve when it comes to talking in a foreign language and dealing with children."
In this era, children under the age of ten can have a vocabulary of 2,000. Jiang Hua shrugged and said, "You are still smarter when you are old. You really let your grandson and granddaughter win at the starting line." This chapter has been completed!
