喝了才能愉快上课的“安吉拉鸡汤”

我是不是中了马东东的毒.........



六月是毕业汪们的考试季，从四五月开始，空气中就弥漫着单调和躁动混合的气息。有人屏气凝神在修炼，有人依旧洒脱不羁，有人对未来茫然无措，有人胸中笃定有乾坤，刷题应犹在，只是激情改，教室里到处一片搬家前的凌乱。

作为“唯恐压抑学生天性”的老师，常常试图在这个时期的课上“撩拨”一下他们无聊的心弦，希望大家在无聊的备考岁月里还保有那么一丝乐趣。

这次借用了鲁子问老师“Thoughtple English”的主意。鲁大侠如是说：

“我国中小学英语教学往往不得不面临一个巨大的矛盾：学生初级的英语表达能力与学生已经非常成熟的思想之间的矛盾，也就是说，学生已经可以用汉语表达非常深刻的思想，如我国看到的很多中小学生的文学作品，但他们的英语水平，却难以支撑他们表达他们丰富的思想。

……

这其实是一种人为的冲突，是因为我们没有真正教会我们的学生如何用简单、浅显的英语，表达他们丰富、深刻的思想。世界上无论多么深刻的思想，其实都是完全可以用非常简单、浅显的语言表达出来的，只要我们表达得当。

……

Thoughtple English（深简英语）是我们创造的词，就是thoughtful and simple，也即是‘思想深刻、但语言简明’之意。”

于是在这个四五月里，每天课前五分钟，就成了“Thoughtple English时间”。每天3句，每句听3遍，记下即可，一解复习之无聊，二增语言之储备，三防人生之烦恼。

一部分句子来自鲁老师的“深简英语系列”，一部分来自网络（因此常出处不明）。大家笑称：想上课？先来碗鸡汤。

鸡汤喝了一阵子有点腻歪了，不安份的老师我又找了一些酸辣汤，各中滋味有何不同，请大家自己品尝。

Discovery comes from seeing what everybody has seen but thinking what nobody has thought.

The world isn’t just the way it is. It is how we understand it.

There is a genius locked inside you. Find it and let it out.

The value of a book does not depend on the book, but on you, the reader.

You are not big when you make other feel small. When you make others feel big, you are big.

All things are difficult before you can do it, but are easy after can do it.

Whenever ideas are shared, the result is always greater.

A mind is like a door. It doesn’t work if it is not open.

Every great person was at first a learner, and of course a loser.

If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you.

If you can’t make a mistake, you can’t make anything.

The most important questions in life can never be answered by anyone except yourself.

In the darkest night, you can see the most stars.

You can live your life in two ways. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything can be a miracle.

You can think left and think right and think low and think high. But what works is what you do.

Ask and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock and the door will be opened for you.

The only person you will become is the person you decide to be.

The most important thing is not what you look at, but what you see.

I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up.

Laugh, and the world laughs with you; Weep, and you weep alone.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.
