Chapter 83 Pretending
Shirley Liu is not as strict and rigid as Lao Mo. Like most English teachers, she is very trendy.
On the one hand, such classroom games can make everyone interested in English and feel that other languages have their own phonological beauty.
On the other hand, I hope that students with poor foundation can speak out.
Exam-oriented education does not require oral proficiency or even speaking English. You can get over 120 points just by rote memorization. But if you want to make a breakthrough, mastering spoken English fluently is definitely beneficial.
At least speaking English correctly can greatly improve the spelling accuracy of words, so that when writing essays during exams, they will be full of unequal spelling errors such as ae and uo.
She asked Chen Yuan to read today because his basic skills and oral English were very poor, and he was also a 'special aid student', so she hoped that in this way, he could increase his self-confidence. After all, this poem is really simple.
Of course, she was right. It would indeed be more appropriate for a handsome boy with a nice voice to read this poem.
The giggling reactions of the girls in the class mean that they agree with what he said.
It's just that Chen Yuan may waste his appearance and voice.
He speaks Mandarin without an accent and is very standard, but when he speaks English, he has a unique accent. It's not that his voice is rustic, but that he pronounces the wrong words, ae, ou, plus he doesn't know where the pronunciation is. He will pronounce a word with a strong emphasis, not to mention the more advanced technique of not speaking certain suffixes and prefixes when two words are joined together.
To give a simple example, foreigners speak Chinese.
The dialects are not similar to each other, I just feel there is an accent.
"Come on." Zhou Fu encouraged Chen Yuan when he stood up.
Chen Yuan's voice is actually very nice, and it matches his face very well. When he talks, as long as he doesn't make bad jokes, he will give people a melancholy and cold look.
It's just that when I read English...because I don't know it, I try too hard.
Still questioning.
Chen Yuan could feel that the classmates in the class were trying hard to keep themselves from laughing subconsciously.
You all think your brother will make a fool of yourself, right?
Dude...
Not sure either.
When Chen Yuan was chatting with Harvey in his dream last night, the other party could bear it at first, but then he got angry - what kind of broken English did you speak? You are insulting my motherland!
Chen Yuan said incomprehensively, I didn't do it on purpose, right?
Then Harvey didn't answer, and suddenly said: Good morning China, now I have ice cream!
Chen Yuan: Idiot.
Harvey: So you know how stupid your English is? !
So, that whole night, Harvey combined the advantages of his native language and more than ten years of rich teaching experience, using vivid phonetic teaching with examples, allowing Chen Yuan to speak the correct pronunciation of English that he was satisfied with, and what he would later say. Half a paragraph later, I also taught him how to read fluent sentences.
"I love, three things, in this world."
When everyone was quiet, Chen Yuan suddenly spoke, and the female voice in the classroom was surprised to say "Oh" because it was really amazing when he opened his mouth. It had the feeling of a movie line, low and melancholy, and the pronunciation was extremely standard.
English teacher Shirley Liu also made an 'O' with her mouth, and then nodded frequently with a smile in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth raised unconsciously.
Very good, this is the taste.
Many people can speak English, but they cannot break sentences, causing the language to lose a lot of beauty, just like machine translation.
Chen Yuan made this sentence very well.
Translated into Chinese, there are three short pauses: the floating world, pause, my love, and short pauses.
In addition, Chen Yuan's voice is quite gentle, as if he is looking into your eyes and saying this.
In fact, he was staring at himself.
Because the poem on the blackboard is right above Shirley Liu’s head.
"sun."
"moon."
"and, you."
So, contrast is something that really makes people feel better. In the past, Chen Yuan, who in their eyes was very poor in English and had trouble reciting English texts every time, read aloud so fluently and with standard speech, which made many girls in the class feel that knowledge can really enhance their charm. Moreover, as Shirley Liu said, this poem is suitable for boys with good voices to read.
"Sun for morning,
moon for night,
and you,
for, ever.”
Following Harvey's teachings, Chen Yuan finished reading the poem.
To be precise, I am saying.
Combined with the context and your own position, imagine the other person as a heart...imagine it as a beautiful girl, and think carefully about how to say a touching love word and how to make the other party focus on the expression of a certain sentence.
This poem is very clever and the rhythm is beautiful.
Even people who have never heard it can guess that the last word is forever.
But, I’ve been waiting for this forever.
Shirley Liu, who listened to the whole thing and nodded with a smile, paused for two seconds to reflect, and then gave a little girlish applause.
The students in the class also applauded to show their recognition of Chen Yuan.
Including Li Youyou, who was just said "Hello" by Chen Yuan today, also admitted that this poem should be read by people with a good voice.
Chen Yuan is too straight...
If he were more romantic like this, he would definitely have no shortage of girlfriends.
"If you want to propose to the girl you like in the future, read this poem aloud when you take out the diamond ring." Shirley Liu did not forget to tease when she raised her hand to signal Chen Yuan to sit down.
Then, it caused a burst of laughter from the classmates.
Shirley Liu, is this really appropriate to teach in class?
"Teacher, can't you use this to express your love?" a girl asked.
"Of course it's okay." Shirley Liu smiled like a flower and said inappropriate words in class, "But I want to be with forever people."
"Ahhhh..."
Then, love brains start to get sick.
If Lao Mo saw this scene, he would probably be so angry that he would tear Shirley Liu's hands to pieces on the spot - Liu Xin, what are you trying to teach these people? !
"Chen Yuan." When Chen Yuan was a little embarrassed by Shirley Liu's teasing, Zhou Fu next to him called him, and then said, "Your voice is quite suitable, and your reading is really nice. .”
"Ah... that's not it, right?" After all, the other person is a super boss with more than 130 English skills, and he has a truth that can never be touched by Chen Yuan, so he felt a little flattered.
Zhou Fu nodded and said sincerely: "The speech is very standard, the pause is just right, the key is that the reading is very emotional, are you..."
"Like Shirley Liu?"
He Sijiao suddenly added.
"you die."
"Haha." Zhou Fu was amused by Chen Yuan and He Sijiao. She laughed and stopped continuing what she just said.
"What's wrong with me?" But Chen Yuan wanted to know, so when he asked, he opened up the ability to listen to his heart.
【Do you have someone you like? 】
"Have you ever found someone to learn spoken English?"
"Oh, yes."
Chen Yuan nodded and admitted, but was stunned after speaking.
Wait.
Which sentence was asked by her, and which sentence was her inner voice?
Grass, heard simultaneously, was confused.
So which sentence am I answering...
"get out of class is over." After the class, Shirley Liu closed the little bee, held the book in her arms, and before leaving, she said to Chen Yuan, "Chen Yuan, come here."
Then, there was a wave of excitement in the class.
The boys yelled "oi" and started to make wild noises about those who couldn't pass the trial.
"Shirley Liu, I'll leave it to you. If you dare to treat her badly, I will never let you go!" Zhou Yu said firmly, looking at Chen Yuan seriously.
"Do you know what your mouth is saying?"
What's wrong with you? That's Shirley Liu!
"Come here." Seeing that Chen Yuan hadn't come over yet, Shirley Liu, who was standing at the door, waved slightly to remind him to hurry up.
Shirley Liu…
It's a bit cute.
"Teacher, what do you want from me?" Chen Yuan asked puzzledly while standing at the door.
"Your English pronunciation is much better than before, and there are basically no mistakes. Of course, you can't hear too many of these simple words." After thinking about it, Shirley Liu lowered her voice and asked in a low voice, "Have you participated in an extracurricular tutoring class? "
No, no, no, no, this is a slide that cannot be touched!
Hearing this, Chen Yuan was even more sensitive than she was. In order to protect Shirley Liu's feathers, he quickly ignored the topic: "No. It was a foreign teacher who moved to the rented apartment. He liked chatting with me very much and kept asking me to talk. English."
"Oh, that's better." Shirley Liu's voice returned to normal, "Your English foundation is very poor, and your vocabulary is also poor, so it's hard to improve your grades. Do you know of any way to take care of both at the same time? What about promotion?”
"Just... improve the basics and increase the vocabulary at the same time?"
"You put it here for me."
"Teacher, you are quite humorous..."
Worthy of being the most receptive English teacher, thirty-year-old Shirley Liu surfs the Internet more intensively than seventeen-year-old Xia Xinyu!
"I'm telling you," Shirley Liu revealed, "it's reading."
"Reading this is too..."
"Don't give up when it's difficult. I know it's difficult. Is it not difficult for people with poor foundation to read?"
Seeing Chen Yuan's inertia, Shirley Liu spurred him directly: "Your current English score is in the bottom five in the class, and sometimes you can even be the first. If this subject improves by forty points, you can Are there hundreds more schools to choose from?”
That's what you say, but Shirley Liu, you are so mean and hurtful with your words.
"Teacher, I understand, I will read after class..."
"I don't dare to compete with you, Teacher Mo, for your time." As if the English teacher in the science class was just a humble little wife, Shirley Liu interrupted again, "There is a club in the school called the Broadcasting Department. There are usually no activities. Mainly responsible for the daily school broadcasts. Such as playing songs, such as announcements, reading chicken soup literature, and a new English column recently opened."
"Huh? Are you talking about me?"
Pointing at himself, Chen Yuan was not sure that it was his turn to do something so conspicuous.
"I'll say hello to the teacher of the Broadcasting Department, you go and try to read one issue." Shirley Liu looked serious, and her tone was not joking, "If you perform well, you can stay and continue reading. Then talk to the Broadcasting Department Another little beauty who reads English aloud forms a small group of golden boys and girls."
To be able to say such things, this is Shirley Liu.
In schools, there is usually a kind of teacher who teaches English, is very rich, never works overtime, and doesn't care about performance. And because there is no such pressure, they not only don't catch puppy love, but also always entertain high school students with a fun mentality. Children, look at the other side's little deer bumping into each other.
Of course, Chen Yuan was nervous for other reasons. He hesitated: "But my English is poor, I only have a score of more than 70..."
"sixty seven."
"..."
Shirley Liu, if you keep doing this, I will really lose my temper.
"Believe me, teacher, this is a very good way to improve English." Shirley Liu said, "If you master one English reading every day, even if you don't do extra homework, your score can be improved by 28 points before the midterm exam. .”
Why is it neither more nor less than twenty-eight points...
[Chen Yuan’s special assistant student’s task is to improve the English subject by 28 points. If you meet the requirements, you will be successful! 】
"Okay, teacher, how should I tell the teacher in the broadcasting department?"
Chen Yuan felt that since he could be promoted, he had to push himself, so he finally accepted it.
"Wait a minute." Shirley Liu put the book in Chen Yuan's hand, then tore off a small note, put the paper on the book, took out her mobile phone, wrote down a QQ number and marked the name 'Teacher Wang' Handed it to him, "Don't add it at school, we'll talk about it when we get back."
"Teacher, I didn't bring my mobile phone to school..."
"Yo yo yo, I know, I'm leaving."
"goodbye teacher."
Chen Yuan was in a subtle mood after taking the note from Shirley Liu. At this moment, two students from other classes passed by the door of their classroom, chatting while walking.
"The preliminary test scores were only released on Thursday, so I'm afraid I won't pass."
"No, it won't be that difficult this time."
"It's indeed not difficult. I heard that there is a buddy in Class 18 who handed in the paper an hour early."
"It's so awesome that I'm super good."
The two of them gradually walked away, and then looked down at the QQ on the note in their hands, feeling increasingly complicated.
Why do I feel like I am going to become famous...
