If you are doing a statistics among students, which course do you like the least?

Then girls should rank first in mathematics, while boys basically have no chance of doing English.

【System: Classroom Challenge is on!】

Challenge content: The class has a very poor learning atmosphere for English, and students are very hostile to learning English. Please try to change their thinking.

Challenge reward: an English learning machine (can be used to play listening and perform pronunciation teaching).

Seeing the three boys in the class hated English, Lin Ping wanted to laugh a little. But he also realized that this was not a simple small problem, and he had to take it seriously and correct their thoughts.

Ideological work is the first priority in students' learning. If there are problems with their thoughts, they are not active in their studies. It is said that interest is the best teacher for students. Once a student is not interested in a certain subject and is resistant to it, his learning of this course will be undoubtedly poor.

Lin Ping touched his chin and thought to himself that even if the students cannot become interested in English, they must correct their hostility to English, and at least make them have a normal heart.

Lin Ping looked at them and asked, "Okay, since you don't like learning English, then each of you will give me a reason, why don't you like it?"

Liu Weiguo was the first to stand up and said passionately: "We are Chinese, we speak Chinese. Why should we learn English? Foreign devils used to bully us, occupy our territory and kill us Chinese. Today we have to learn their language. Why? Are we so unscrupulous?"

"Okay, I heard the simple patriotic spirit from Liu Weiguo's speech, which is very commendable. Yes, we are Chinese, speak Chinese, write Chinese characters, are born and raised here, why should we learn English?" Lin Ping first affirmed the patriotic spirit of the young and energetic Liu Weiguo, and then continued, "So is learning English equivalent to being unpatriotic?"

"Obviously not!" Lin Ping said, "If learning English is not patriotic, then we are treasoning almost every day now. Why? Electricity was invented by Westerners, light bulbs were invented by Westerners, and the textbooks in your hands are now printed by machines invented by Westerners. In addition to Chinese, Chinese history, and ideological and morality, the knowledge in the textbooks are almost also created by Westerners. To this day, all kinds of high-tech inventions are almost created by Westerners, and the technology of the United States is still ahead of us for at least twenty years. Do you know why?"

Five children didn't speak.

"It's because we had a period of time that Yelang was arrogant and self-righteous. It was like a tortoise and hare racing. We were the rabbit. We fell asleep and slept for a long time. When we woke up, we found that the turtle built a car. Then the turtle drove the car and made rapid progress. We could only see the dust." Lin Ping glanced at Liu Weiguo, "Liu Weiguo just mentioned that Westerners had bullied us before. The Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China and burned the Old Summer Palace. These history textbooks in your second grade will be learned. But why? Why were we bullied during that period, instead of living together peacefully or we bullied them?"

Liu Qingmei lowered her head and whispered: "Because we are behind."

"Yes, that's right, it's because we are behind! If we fall behind, we will be beaten!" Lin Ping said.

"Why! Why do you have to be beaten if you fall behind?" Liu Xiangqian stood up and asked in discontent.

"Have you learned an idiom called 'A common man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure'?" Lin Ping shook his head and continued to say, "This idiom means that an ordinary person has no sin, but he has caused trouble because of the precious jewelry hidden on his body."

"Why?" the students continued to ask if they didn't understand the truth.

"Because you don't have the ability to protect these treasures and don't know how to use them! At that time, China was like a man with treasures on his body. He had a lot of land and resources, but he had no ability without his hands. So the British slapped us tentatively, "pa". He thought that if this man resisted fiercely, he apologized and ran away quickly, but he didn't expect that this man would knock him out."

Lin Ping said on the podium, and the students below listened with relish.

"At that time, Britain only used a few thousand people to fight from Guangdong along the coast to Zhili area, which was at the foot of the emperor. So we panicked and signed a treaty and paid compensation. Why could a country with a population of 500 million and million soldiers beg for mercy for a few thousand people? Because of technology."

Lin Ping took a sip of water.

"The British slapped this slap, not only knocked out the common man, but also plundered huge wealth. At this time, they found that this common man was really rich, so rich that everyone was greedy. They had never seen the wealth in ten lives. The news leaked out, so everyone wanted to take advantage of it, so they rushed up in a swarm, once, twice... The common man kept resisting, but because there were too many differences, it was difficult to make up for the sheep and sheep, which created a history of humiliation in modern China. And one of the most famous movements is called the Westernization Movement. What is the slogan of the Westernization Movement?" Lin Ping asked.

"I know, teacher." Liu Weiguo raised his hand and said, "Learn from the barbarians' strengths to control the barbarians."

"Yes, learn from the barbarians' strengths to control the barbarians. At this time, they realized the importance of learning the West, but unfortunately, they learned the wrong direction and only learned to show kung fu, but did not learn the true meaning of the West." Lin Ping said with a serious face, "And now, we have nothing to be beaten? Is it because the West suddenly bloomed with the glory of human nature? No, it is because we are no longer so backward and have stood up under the leadership of the Party. In the past, in the present, in the future, being beaten to be beaten is still a truth-like existence. From the past Opium War to the present Yugoslavia, Iraq has been verifying this sentence."

The five children had serious facial expressions. Although the information in the mountains was blocked, they also knew a little about Iraq, and they might not know about Yugoslavia.

"But we are still behind Western countries. We need to constantly learn from them and chase them to ensure that we will not fall behind too much, and will no longer be as humiliated as before and will be beaten. If we are beaten, we will have to give money to others." Lin Ping said, "So the country requires us to learn English and learn English to better learn from the West to strengthen ourselves."

"Then you can't learn the West without learning English?" Liu Xiangqian asked.

"Yes." Lin Ping said affirmatively, "Western countries have firmly occupied the dominance of the whole world since the Industrial Revolution. The first industrial revolution was Britain and the United States in the middle and late periods of the Second Industrial Revolution. Both countries are English-speaking countries. Now in the Third Industrial Revolution, the Information Technology Revolution is still the United States leading the way. In the past two hundred years in modern times, Britain and the United States have firmly mastered advanced scientific theories and scientific and technological technologies, and built a huge physics system, chemical system, information network system, etc. Everything is built on English as the language basis. You can't speak English? Sorry, people won't take you to play."

Lin Ping looked at Liu Xiangqian: "What do you want to do in the future? Make a lot of money?"

"Yes, what I do the most profitable?"

Lin Ping smiled: "The most profitable thing is finance. The international financial system is formulated by the United States. Microeconomics knowledge, financial system framework, and legal contracts are all used in English. They set rules. If you don't know how to speak English, you will only be killed in international confrontations."

Then Lin Ping looked at Liu Weiguo again: "What about you? What do you want to do?"

Liu Weiguo scratched his head: "I...I don't know, I...I wanted to be a scientist in the past."

"Scientist? Scientist, how do you become a scientist? Especially physicists, whether it is gravity or relativity, are proposed by Western countries. They have laid a framework for physics that is almost impossible to overturn. Now the new theories of physics in the world are also proposed by Western countries. If you don't know English, you can't understand these theories at all. If you don't know English, you can't publish papers, you won't get international recognition, and you can't participate in it."

Lin Ping continued: "What I just said is the macro aspect, that is, why the country wants us to learn English. English is almost the common language in the world. If you go to RB, South Korea, France, you may not know Japanese, Korean, and French, but it doesn't matter, it's enough for you to know English, because almost the whole world is learning English, and English can enable people from all countries to communicate with them simply. On the personal side, if you don't learn English, you won't be able to get into high school or get into a good university, just like your ten fingers breaking, lacking a complete appearance and function."

Lin Ping's words almost dispelled these children's idea of ​​not wanting to learn English.

"Teacher, what you said, are Western countries that powerful? Are we so bad?" Li Shulin asked cautiously.

"Of course not. Western countries are indeed powerful, because they seized the opportunity to develop for more than two hundred years, and the economic development has created strength in all aspects. And we are not bad, even more powerful. Our new China has caught up with the development of Western countries except the United States in just a few decades, and some places have even achieved transcendence. What is even more powerful?" Lin Ping said pretending to be mysterious.

“What is it?”

The children stared at curiously.

"It is our rise is peaceful rise, and our development is peaceful development. The rise of Western countries is accompanied by aggression, plunder and war. Only our rise is peaceful takeoff. Peaceful rise is much more difficult than war rise, but we have done it. What do we rely on? It is precisely learning."

Lin Ping smiled meaningfully: "The future is promising. It is obvious that our China's future is brighter and has a brighter future than that of capitalist countries. It is only a matter of time before we surpass them. The key to surpassing them is to learn from them."

【Congratulations! The challenge was successful!】

Lin Ping's education almost wasted half of the class, but this remark turned the yellow light on the children's heads into a green light, changing their hostility and prejudice towards English subjects, and changing their thoughts.

Lin Ping felt it was worth it to exchange half a class for their ideological changes. He also got an English learning machine, which is a good helper in English teaching.
