For the major of English language and literature, the freshman and sophomore courses focus on intensive reading, extensive reading, listening, speaking, and writing.
Shao Le has been receiving one-on-one English tutoring via video since he was in the first grade of elementary school. The tutors are all authentic Americans, so starting from elementary school, Shao Le has been able to speak fluent authentic English and follow The Chinese-style English that most students in China read is still very different.
In China, even if you can get full marks on the English test, if there is no such environment, then when you go abroad, it may be difficult for foreigners to understand the English you speak, and some words will be particularly awkward to say.
A large class at the university lasts for ninety minutes, with a ten-minute break in between. There is an intensive reading class in the morning and a speaking class in the afternoon.
At half past one, Jin Mingxuan washed his hair in the dormitory. He blew his hair with a hair dryer and hummed happily.
Ma Yuan heard the sound, stood up and asked, "Jin Mingxuan, what happened to you that made you so happy?"
"Can't you afford it? Class starts in half an hour."
Shao Le also got up and cursed: "You bitch, why are you so active today?"
Jin Mingxuan smiled and said: "In the afternoon oral class, do you know who our oral teacher is?"
"who?"
"Wu Mengyao."
"Is it famous?"
Jin Mingxuan put down the hair dryer and smiled triumphantly: "The most beautiful teacher in our college is only twenty-nine years old this year."
"Fuck, I told you that you washed your hair in the middle of the day and used my hair wax. It turns out you are feeling spring again."
"A dog can't spit ivory out of its mouth, so I'll leave a good impression on the teacher."
The upper bunk stretched out three middle fingers.
ten minutes later.
The four of them walked towards the teaching building with their oral textbooks. Along the way, Shao Le's turnaround rate was particularly high. Shao Le could hear their discussions from far away...
"It's him! The freshman who danced with Du Xiangling."
"Why is this idiot so handsome?"
"How come Du Xiangling is so familiar with a freshman?"
"Will they get along well?"
"How can it be!"
"..."
Wei Tao smiled and said, "Shao Le, I feel like I'm already famous in school."
"It's not Du Xiangling's fault."
Jin Mingxuan also asked: "Have you ever chatted with her after you added her on WeChat?"
"Yes, I have."
"What are you talking about?"
"She just sent me a hotel room number and asked me to find her at night, but I didn't go."
"Grass!"
One cursive character contained all of Jin Mingxuan's envy, jealousy and hatred.
Shao Le raised his foot and kicked his butt, laughing and scolding: "You really believe it? You are an idiot."
"Shao Le, you lied to me, I curse Lin Keke to never fall in love with you for the rest of his life."
"Ha ha ha ha."
…
In the classroom, the students are almost here.
Today is the first day of class, and everyone's enthusiasm is still very high.
However, everyone's seats are different every time they come, which gives Shao Le a little headache.
Shao Le thought for a while, then walked directly to the podium and said: "Well... before the teacher comes, let's arrange the seats to save everyone from fighting for seats in the future."
"Okay", a female classmate immediately agreed: "Look at Zhan Taichuan, a person who is 1.8 meters tall is still sitting in the second row, and the people behind can't see the blackboard."
Shao Le glanced at Zhan Taichuan and scolded: "You just sit in the last row. The first two rows are all for female classmates."
Zhan Taichuan chuckled and stood up to give up his position.
"Girls all sit in the front, in order of height. Those who are short-sighted can sit in the front."
There are four rows in the classroom, with eight people in each row.
The seats in the first two rows were quickly filled. The four people in Chen Shuting's dormitory were quite tall among the girls, all over 1.6 meters tall. The four of them sat in the middle of the third row.
The four seats on the left and right were occupied by shorter male classmates.
Shao Le walked to the last row and walked down directly behind Lin Keke.
When Zhan Taichuan saw this scene, he shouted: "Squad leader, I also want to sit in the middle seat."
"Get lost."
Zhan Taichuan said aggrievedly: "Squad leader, are you abusing your private power?"
Shao Le turned to point at Jin Mingxuan and said, "Then you and Wei Tao change places, but I have to tell you first, this bitch Jin Mingxuan likes to touch his deskmate's thighs in class."
Zhan Taichuan immediately waved his hand and said with a smile: "Then forget it."
Jin Mingxuan immediately became anxious: "I'll touch a ball. Who the hell likes to touch people's thighs in class?"
"Ha ha ha ha."
The classroom immediately burst into laughter.
Wu Mengyao, who was walking towards the classroom, was a little surprised when she heard the sound. The other classes with classes were all talking very quietly at this moment, but why was the second class of English and Foreign Languages laughing so happily.
With a trace of curiosity, Wu Mengyao walked into the classroom.
When people in the classroom saw Wu Mengyao walking in, they gradually became quiet.
Wu Mengyao asked directly in fluent English: "Why did you laugh so happily just now?"
Most people were a little dumbfounded.
Those who apply for this major are indeed good at English subjects, but many of them are only limited to taking exams. It's okay for them to watch and listen, but it's more difficult for them to speak.
When everyone was silent, Shao Le stood up and smiled to break the embarrassment: "We just made a bet that if the oral teacher is a beautiful woman, then they will let me be the school committee member. If not, then I will ask them Everyone has a cup of milk tea."
Thirty-five classmates were even more dumbfounded.
Shao Le actually answered Wu Mengyao's question in fluent spoken English! ! !
This makes them unbelievable.
Jin Mingxuan next to him reacted and gave a thumbs up at that time: "I'll go, Shao Le, you are awesome!"
Wu Mengyao was also a little surprised, but she quickly smiled and said: "So are you going to be the school committee now, or are you going to invite your classmates to drink milk tea?"
“Of course it’s my honor to be on the school committee.”
Wu Mengyao smiled and said: "I seem to have seen your video on the school forum. You are very popular in our school."
Shao Le said in shame: "They are all spreading rumors."
Wu Mengyao did not answer the call, but introduced herself seriously: "Hello everyone, my name is Wu Mengyao, you can call me Teacher Wu, or you can call me Ms. Wu. In the next period of time, I will serve as your Spoken English teacher, in the next moment, I need each of you to stand up and introduce yourself in English. In addition to your name, age, and place of origin, I also want to know your hobbies and specialties... What is your name? "
Shao Le pointed at himself: "Me?"
"Shao Le."
"Then let's start with you."
Shao Le shrugged his shoulders and stood up nonchalantly and began to introduce himself in English. He was still very fluent, and other students felt pressured listening to it.
A small class was completed.
All the students breathed a sigh of relief.
Wu Mengyao spoke English the whole time, and everyone had to work hard to listen, so after the class, many people felt a little tired.
Seeing Wu Mengyao sitting on the podium drinking water and resting, Chen Shuting turned around and asked directly: "Shao Le, why do you speak so well?"
"I have had one-on-one speaking training, and the other person is a foreigner, so my speaking is not bad."
"No wonder." Chen Shuting asked, then turned her head and continued taking notes.
At this time, Jin Mingxuan also came forward and whispered: "Out of ten, what do you think it is?"
Wei Tao said: "Ten points!"
Ma Yuan smiled and said: "Ten points is too exaggerated. I'll give it nine points."
Jin Mingxuan nodded and said: "I can also give nine points, Shao Le, what about you?"
"Eight points."
"Why so low?"
"I don't have to say anything about my figure. My appearance is okay, but I'm a little short."
"Not short, right?"
"Wearing high heels."
Wei Tao asked: "One meter and a half?"
Jin Mingxuan said in surprise: "How is it possible that you are only 1.55 meters?!"
"Absolutely. The soles of the high heels are too high. If you squat in a pit, water will probably splash onto your buttocks."
"You ride on the horse."
