Canglong randomly picked up the ideals of a few people and then narrated a few historical figures and told some of their stories in history. The students listened with great interest, and most of the historical figures Canglong mentioned were the ones he would soon
The people involved in this lesson.
Although not everyone can correspond, Canglong found some other characters related to those main characters in that era, and compared and discussed them with the students.
Until, when he suddenly saw one of the ideals, Canglong's expression suddenly changed:
I don’t know what ideals I have, but I know what strengths I have. Teacher Cang said that my strengths should be used, so I have been learning this knowledge outside of class, but I suddenly have questions, can our current ideals really be realized?
?The arrival of Teacher Cang has changed a lot of the way we look at things, but is what he said really right? Can each of us really realize our ideals?
Or is it only a small number of people who can realize their ideals? Seeing so many unfair things in this society, I suddenly feel that even if I was born in this country, there is no future even if I work hard, I suddenly feel that my ideal is just a fantasy, I suddenly feel that it is so
Despair, I am just the most ordinary one among thousands of people. Even Teacher Cang doesn’t pay much attention to me, because I am very ordinary. Who am I qualified to talk about ideals and the future? However,
I still decided to work hard and at least not let a few people down.
This is the original words written by the student. Seeing these paragraphs, Canglong suddenly felt like being pricked by needles in his heart. How desperate and mature he must be to write such words. He looked at the student
, but found that he was lowering his head at this time and did not realize that he was looking at him. Just as what he said in the text, even if he has an ideal, in this unfair society, can he really realize his ideal?
?
Under the influence of traditional culture, China's social environment has become extremely complex. In this society, even if you have ability, you may not be appreciated by others, but he is teaching students ideals and ambitions. For a while, he really has some
Doubt, is what you are doing really right?
However, the melancholy on his face soon disappeared. He did not need to dwell on the issue itself, because even he himself fell into it when he saw this ideal.
"Wang Ziwen." Canglong muttered this name in his heart. Compared to other classes, most of the students in Class 9 are extraordinary because they all have various problems.
However, everyone has forgotten one problem. In fact, these problem students in Class 9 are the most common. The real problem students are not the problem students in Class 9, but those students who do not seem to be problems, but the students in No. 1 Middle School.
All students, they are the real problem students.
Because they uphold all the traditional concepts, the students of Class Nine are lucky. As Wang Ziwen himself said, he is the most ordinary one in Class Nine, and almost all students in reality are ordinary.
, it’s just the trend of traditional values that finally makes students with status and background become extraordinary.
So it appeared that many students actually have an inferiority complex in their hearts. This inferiority complex stems from the fact that they are all ordinary. At this time, Canglong suddenly didn't know how to pronounce this ideal, because many of the ninth class were also the most ordinary.
The students suddenly found that Teacher Cang was silent while he was talking, so they all looked at him in surprise. It took Canglong a long time to react and smiled helplessly. How should he answer Wang Ziwen's question?
At this moment, he suddenly thought of a word, so he looked at the students and said, "In your eyes, what is nobility?"
"Noble!" The entire Class Nine was stunned for a moment, wondering why Canglong asked this.
"Yes, what is a noble?" Canglong asked clearly.
Although the students were puzzled, they all answered according to their own thoughts. Yun Feiyang's aristocrats tended to be in ancient times. Those high-ranking officials and nobles in Wei Dongkui's eyes were rich and powerful, while Hu Pingan and
In the eyes of Ye Qiu and others, nobles are people with privileges.
As for Yi Xiaochuan, they also agreed with this point of view, so after some discussion, everyone agreed that nobles are people with privileges.
"Then do you want to be a noble?" Canglong looked at everyone.
For a moment, the entire ninth class was silent. No one answered because if they answered yes, they would definitely be scolded. If they answered no, they would definitely be told that they were pretending to be 13.
Seeing this, Canglong seemed to understand something, and then said: "You can answer it, no matter whether the answer is yes or no, this is just a question."
"Project?" The students looked at each other. This topic is too tricky.
"I want to be in that group of people. Isn't that what I study so hard for?" Surprisingly, it was Yi Xiaochuan who spoke first.
If Canglong hadn't stared at them, many people would probably scold him, but then Zuo Yu also spoke: "In my eyes, there is no aristocracy or nobility, it's just that the living environment is different and the level is different, but I can't say that life is the same.
People with good standards are very noble."
What Zuo Yu said was a mixed bag, but it was from her heart, because from the beginning to the end, she had never discriminated against any student in Class 9.
But some people still think that Zuo Yu is pretending. The reason is naturally very simple, because everyone knows what the situation of Zuo Yu's family is. Standing in this position, of course, he can say this, because people without privileges are not
he.
At this time, as the conflict intensified, the entire class was divided into two groups. One group was Zuo Yu and Yun Feiyang, who had good family backgrounds, and the other group was Tang Long and Wang Jiao, who had poor family backgrounds.
Wang Jiao and Tang Long are always the majority, whether in Class 9, in society, or at a certain period in history.
If they were allowed to discuss it on their own, Canglong was absolutely certain that they would quarrel, and in the end, this issue would even cause cracks in the already well-integrated class.
However, neither of them objected, because traditional concepts told them that the poor could change their destiny only by studying hard, while the rich could only continue to maintain their privileges by stabilizing their current status and constantly squeezing the poor.
"Would you like to hear me tell a story?" Canglong suddenly interrupted their discussion.
Everyone looked at Teacher Cang. They all wanted to say something, but they all fell silent. Now Canglong will be resented by the other faction no matter which faction he supports, but Canglong's words are the most convincing. Both factions
All students want Canglong to support them to prove that their views are right.
"Nowadays, many wealthy people in China send their children to aristocratic schools in the UK, hoping that they will become aristocrats after graduation. However, they find that even the students of Eton College, the best aristocratic school in the UK, have difficulty sleeping.
They have to live on wooden beds, eat simple meals, and undergo very strict training every day. It is even harder than students in civilian schools. They can't figure out how these ascetic lives are related to the nobility." Canglong said, looking towards
Everyone, "They can't understand, can you tell me why?"
Seeing that most people's faces were filled with disbelief, Tang Long blurted out: "They are making money from the Chinese, because the rich people in China are all stupid."
"They look down on the Chinese at all, because they think the Chinese are all nouveau riche." Hu Ping'an said, "But if I have the chance, I am still willing to be a nouveau riche."
The students were talking a lot, with various understandings, but Canglong raised his hand, and after they calmed down, he said: "You are all wrong. That's because traditional values are different. The nobility in the eyes of the British is not the same."
It is not just about being rich. The aristocratic spirit advocated in the West is not the spirit of the nouveau riche. It is opposed to the spirit of the common people. It does not mean a pampered, leisurely and luxurious life, but a series of values based on honor, responsibility, courage, self-discipline, etc.
The pioneering spirit with values as its core is the British understanding of aristocracy, and it is also the exercise of moral character. No matter how rich a person without moral character is, he is not called an aristocrat, but an upstart."
"But for the British, it's okay for each of them to have their own privileges?" Ye Qiu suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Canglong shook his head: "Traditionally, the British naturally have privileges, and they naturally have the nouveau riche, but on the contrary to us, they are only a minority, and we occupy the majority. In the eyes of most people in the UK,
Aristocrats are not material aristocrats, but closer to spiritual aristocrats, so they still maintain this tradition and still maintain the titles of feudal society."
The students from both groups stopped talking. Cang Long looked at them and continued: "But the aristocratic life that most Chinese people understand now is living in villas, buying Bentley cars, playing golf, spending money like water, drinking and drinking, and talking to others.
It comes and goes. In fact, this is not the spirit of the aristocracy, it is the spirit of the nouveau riche. In our Chinese concept, aristocratic schools should enjoy aristocratic conditions and have an aristocratic life. This is our tradition
The worst thing ideas have left us.”
After saying this, Wei Dongkui and the others suddenly lowered their heads, while Tang Long and the others also looked thoughtful. If someone else had said these words, they would definitely have to refute them, but this time it was Teacher Cang who said it. They would not
Do you know how to refute him for instilling Western culture into yourself?
"If you think that I am instilling Western values in you, then I agree, but what I want to say is that in traditional Chinese culture, there are actually such values, but they have been abandoned by us, so that now,
We all live according to this idea of the nouveau riche." Canglong said, picking up the ideal article written by Wang Ziwen, and then said, "Wang Ziwen, are you satisfied with this answer?"
"Well!" Wang Ziwen looked bad, but he didn't know that Canglong was talking to him, so he said, "But, I think I am still the most ordinary one. This is China, not the UK."
