Listen Read Learn

Dad: May, did you understand everything I said just now? Do you need more explanation?

May: Err…almost? I just need more time to reflect it.

Dad: It's OK. Just let me know when you have a problem.

May: But you've explained it three times. Oh, I am so stupid!

Dad: Don't lose heart, May. You have already made great progress in your biology.

May: Really? Did I?

Dad: Of course you did! You are making progress everyday, bit by bit, but you just cannot see it or feel it.

May: Dad, do you think I can get in Tsinghua University? I'm afraid it is a tough call for me.

Dad: Getting into Tsinghua is very competitive. You must study ten times harder than others. Why do you want to go to Tsinghua?

May: Tsinghua is the top university in China. Half of my classmates want to go to Tsinghua.

Dad: It's best only when it fits you. I don't advise you to go to Tsinghua. Though it ranks top in China, it doesn't fit you.

May: You think so? Why?

Dad: Don't you always want to study Chinese literature? Tsinghua is not good for that. I suggest you apply for Peking University.

May: Dad, you are right. Tsinghua is the best, but it isn't a fit for me. But do you really think I can get in Peking University? What if I failed?

Dad: Of course you can! No matter what the result is, the process is more important.

聽看學(xué)

爸爸: 阿美，我剛才說的你都懂了嗎？你還需要解釋嗎？

阿美: 嗯，差不多。我只是需要更多的時(shí)間來復(fù)習(xí)。

爸爸: 好的，要是有什么問題就問我。

阿美: 但是你已經(jīng)解釋三次了。我真笨??！

爸爸: 別灰心，阿美。你的生物已經(jīng)進(jìn)步很多了。

阿美: 真的嗎？我進(jìn)步了嗎？

爸爸: 當(dāng)然！你每天都在進(jìn)步，一點(diǎn)一點(diǎn)地，只是你沒有看到或沒有感覺到。

阿美: 爸爸，你認(rèn)為我能考上清華大學(xué)嗎？我怕我做不到。

爸爸: 考清華的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)會(huì)很激烈。你必須要付出比別人多十倍的努力。你為什么想考清華呀？

阿美: 清華是全國(guó)最好的大學(xué)呀。我們班一半的同學(xué)都想考清華。

爸爸: 只有適合自己的才是最好的。我不建議你考清華。雖然它是中國(guó)頂尖高校，但是它不適合你。

阿美: 你真這樣想？為什么？

爸爸: 你不是一直想學(xué)中國(guó)文學(xué)嗎？清華在那方面并不是很強(qiáng)。我建議你考北京大學(xué)。

阿美: 嗯，是這樣的。清華是最好的，但是它并不適合我。但是你真的認(rèn)為我能考上北大嗎？如果沒考上怎么辦？

爸爸: 你肯定行！不管結(jié)果怎樣，過程更重要。
