《兒子說想跟我聊聊北韓》
連著好幾晚,躺在我右側的女兒吵著我唸《My Weird School》這套故事書給她聽;兒子則吵著要跟我聊「北韓」話題。
我實在分身乏術,心想如果他跟我談的是德國納粹種族主義(Nazis )(Holocaust),我還可以推薦他先閱讀幾本青少年讀物如《The Diary of Anne Frank》《The Boy in the Striped Pajamas》《Number the Stars 》暫且打發。
怎奈關於「北韓」,我唯獨想到的作品竟只有那部瘋迷主婦圈的韓劇《愛的迫降》。家庭主婦不知北韓人間疾苦,滿腦子想到的只有玄彬與孫藝珍在於北韓那段令人揪心的浪漫戀情👩❤️👨。
等女兒入睡後,我走進兒子的房間,他正拿著Kindle閱讀,
『來吧!我們來聊聊北韓!』我鑽進他被窩。
他先跟我分享了幾部關於北韓的Youtube短片,直呼這國家的存在太不可思議,令他困惑。
其實我更困惑,這議題是如此龐大高深。要先了解人類社會的演進,要牽扯到封建走向資本主義的革命歷程,再進階到社會主義,共產主義。再談點馬克思主義及柏拉圖哲學裡的理想國及烏托邦。
其實我知道的也都只是雞皮蒜毛,隨便胡湊瞎掰,想證明媽媽也是有讀過萬卷書。
兒子聽得一頭霧水一臉茫然,他很難理解我話中的意思,因為我百分之八十都是用中文亂掰。
但要用英文去談馬克思主義,天哪!我甚連這單字都不知道怎麼拼?
只不過是想跟兒子聊個天,竟得先孤身深夜裡寒窗苦讀,除了重頭搞清楚人類社會歷史的來龍去脈外,還得查詢所有重要英文單字。
這母職怎麼會高深莫測到我無法招架😔。
為了加強兒子的深刻思考,我只先在紙上列出的幾個重點單字及問題,再請兒子自己Google找出答案,並與我討論。
🤓這一年來,我跟兒子之間若有難以溝通的問題,不論情感上、想法上、知識上,我都會列出問句,請他紙上答覆。他很喜歡用這樣的方式與我交換想法。
🥺好想念那段親子時光,只需手裡捧著隨便一本繪本,開嗓亂唸,便能把他們逗得笑呵呵,哄得傻楞楞啊!
若您的孩子恰巧對於這主題有興趣的,也可以參考。

缺點英文cons 在 徐聖淵(Shengyuan Hsu photography) Facebook 的最讚貼文
昨天我們在討論為何工作室的中文叫「識破設計」,她說因爲工作室的英文名稱是「Pros and Cons」(優點跟缺點)中的Pros而來,她就想說按照英文發音「破事」轉過來變成「識破」好了,「我識破你了!」
我說「識破」這詞的語意其實有點中間偏負面的感覺,因為「識破」跟後面的「陰謀」很常連結在一起,為何不乾脆用英文的意思轉化成中文「優設計」這種唸起來很順很俐落的中文名稱就好?
她:「.................好啦來不及改了啦!!!」

個人意見
My opinion is to consider the following factors when choosing an English teacher:
1. 釐清自己的目標!
Your own goals for learning English. Can the teacher help you fulfill these goals given the time and resources at your disposal? Will you do your part to learn?
2. 看老師的個人特質和學經歷!
Does the teacher posses the following qualifications?
-教學資格證明
Teaching qualifications. Pedagogical theories enable instructors to use a wide assortment of strategies when trying to help you, a unique learner, to learn! Does the teacher take a differentiated approach? Does he focus on all domains of English?
-教學經驗
Experience in teaching someone like you. Has the teacher taught students of your age/ability/culture/goals/etc.? By having such experience, the teacher can better tap into your funds of knowledge to help you learn.
-教材與練習
Sufficient learning materials and practice. Does the teacher provide you with class activities, assignments, and assessments?

社區大學 vs 四年制大學:該選哪一個?優點 & 缺點分析給你聽!Pros & Cons of CC vs 4 year University! | Clumsy Cynthia
你是不是想要到美國唸書 但還在考慮社區大學或四年制大學選哪個好嗎?
今天的影片是從我的角度分析了社大的優缺點&在四年制大學觀察到不同的地方
當然出國唸書這種事牽涉的範圍非常廣 需要從各方角度考量才比較妥當
不過希望從我的角度給正在煩惱的人一些意見
選擇哪個一個都沒有錯 反正凡事都是有好有壞 選擇了就別後悔就好 :)
如果你有朋友也才考慮出國唸書 不妨分享出去讓大家一起討論唷!

台灣人最常用的性愛三大體位不外乎是「傳教士」,「狗趴式」跟「女上男下」,它們到底有什麼優缺點?哪個視覺效果最好?哪個是女生太辛苦?男生太輕鬆?哪個做起來會最熱鬧像是鑼鼓喧天的廟會?
