    每学期每位老师要改四次作文,这是美国学校为提高学生写作能力所作的努力。作文题目结合老师任教学科任给,但文体每次不同。老师有评分细则,细则分五大块:构思;组织;句子结构,措词及标点等。这次语言班我给的题目是“学习汉语给我的影响”,文化班给的是“选修中国文化课给我的影响”,收到了很多不错的文章,对加深了自己对美国学生的了解大有裨益,也从学生的反馈中获得了不小的鼓励。当然,教学相长,我还可以从他们的文章中学习英语,虽然并不是所有学生写作都厉害。下面随意选一位名叫孟克美(中文名)的毕业班学生的作文,大家可以看看我们中国老师的到来对中美文化交流的推动无疑是非常积极的,标题:Cause and Effect: Studying Chinese

 

At first, my decision to take Chinese was based on the need for a foreign language class. I chose Chinese because of my interest in Far Eastern culture. I thought it would be hard because that’s what I had heard, but I was enthusiastic. Language has always been easy for me, and I wanted to test myself. I had no idea how it would change my future.

 

The personal impact studying Chinese has made on me is a part of that change. Studying Chinese has fed my curiosity. I want to know more about China; I want to discover this ancient, complex land and its people with my own experience. My fascination with Asian culture has grown from the glimpses I’ve caught in the classroom. Quite simply, I’d like to go there.

 

Chinese has also inspired a change in career choice. Before, I thought I would be a writer or teacher. Now I want to go to China and teach English to Chinese students. I am talented in English, and with some more years of studying, I could become fluent in Chinese. What a better way to unite my own interests with my skills!

 

I feel that Chinese has expanded not only my vocabulary and language skills, but my intellect as well. I find myself more accepting of new ideas and of differences. I also can work with people better and more creatively. I liked language before, but I love it now. It means a lot to me.

 

No matter where I end up, I shall always be happy of my decision. The experience so far has given me so much more that I ever expected. I thought it would be difficult and beneficial only to my college applications. I was so wrong. And I am so glad.
