You can't afford to be a cat man!

On the first day of teaching the little one, the Chinese teacher felt that the child was indeed a genius, and he could recite a new ancient poem proficiently without saying a lot of words.

With the excitement of picking up the treasure, he started the second day of teaching, and then he was confused by the tragic and cruel facts.

The child who learned everything the day before, seemed to be completely dumbfounded after he taught the pronunciation of Hanyu Pinyin for the first time. He raised his head and stared at him blankly for a long time, then asked hesitantly in a low voice. : "Teacher, are you speaking a foreign dialect?"

It is obviously the same "a", why is it different from the pronunciation he learned in kindergarten?Little Thinking had already thought about all the possible situations when the teacher was pronouncing the pinyin letters. In the end, he felt that it was very possible that just as the pronunciation of Chinese dialects is different from that of Mandarin, there are also differences between dialects and Mandarin in English.

After thinking about it this way, it can be completely figured out. The teacher's Mandarin Chinese is not very good, let alone English.What Xiao Budian couldn't figure out was that this person spoke English so badly, and he was also a Chinese teacher, why would he suddenly volunteer to teach him the pronunciation of English letters?

The Chinese teacher froze, and said with a dry smile, "No, the pinyin I taught you is Chinese."

"Oh, is it the kind of question that I did wrong three times in a row yesterday?" The little one was even more at a loss, "But the pronunciation of the letters I have learned is different?"

"...The same thing means one thing in a foreign country, but it means another thing in China. It's normal." The teacher frowned in distress and paused before answering.

The little guy reacted much faster than him, and immediately retorted: "But the Arabic numeral 1 has the same meaning all over the world."

When he memorized English words, he unconsciously used the root association memory method to master the rules of English word formation. As a result, the teacher tried to teach him a completely different set of rules, and the little one really couldn't understand.

"You used to memorize English words, but now I teach you pinyin, which is completely different." The teacher tried to reason with him.

小不点也试图给他举例论证：“为什么啊，我在中国写‘1+1=2’，难道到了外国就是‘1+1=3’了？”

After he finished speaking, he saw the teacher was speechless and stunned, and thought that he must respect the teacher, so he took the initiative to take a step back: "Uh, I want to ask, what is pinyin used for?"

——He was able to answer this question. The teacher breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "This is to help you recognize characters. When you see an unfamiliar character and don't know the pronunciation, you can look it up in the dictionary, and then Read it pinyin."

Xiaobudian was obviously not interested in this, he said triumphantly: "I don't use a dictionary and pinyin, I have a computer!"

As he spoke, he turned on the computer in standby mode—because he and Li Yan would use it at any time, so the computer was basically turned on during the day—and pointed to a word on the cover of the textbook and asked: "Hungry meow, How do you read this?"

Li Yan was smiling and watching Xiao Budian's extremely witty tongue-twisting teacher. Hearing this, he glanced at it and saw that Xiao Budian was pointing at a rare character in the writer's name, so he typed twice on the keyboard.

It is also thanks to the complete functions of various software on the Internet. The searched words not only have definitions and pinyin notes, but also have a small speaker next to the words, which can be automatically pronounced with one click.

The teacher watched Li Yan being silent for a long time, his eyebrows drooping, his whole face turned into the word "囧", and he sincerely praised: "This is really a god-given cat."

On the contrary, the little guy recalled Li Yan's actions just now, and showed a thoughtful expression—he hadn't noticed how Li Yan typed on the keyboard before, because it was impossible to spell with the Wubi input method after such two strokes. To come up with such a character, recall now, it seems that the other party is using the pinyin input method.

Xiao Budian looked at the teacher and explained: "Even if Hungry Meow is not around, I can still understand the pronunciation of this character. I can use Wubi input to search for it."

"..." The teacher was silent for a long time again, sighed softly, and persuaded, "Son, you have to know that not everything you learn in this world can be used. In the future, the exam will always be inseparable from the pinyin test. , so you still have to learn as much as possible.”

The little boy tugged at the yellow hair on his head in distress: "It's not that I don't want to learn, I just can't understand. 1 and a are the components that make up numbers and letters respectively. Why does the meaning of 1 remain the same, but a changes?" Don't stop?"

Teacher: "..." Why did it go around and around and finally come back?

Now he realizes that it is not easy to teach a very smart child. The teacher has taught for half his life, and this is the first time someone told him that "Pinyin is useless to me, I don't need to learn it".

Fortunately, at this time, the almighty Lu family god cat decided to make a move - mainly because the teacher's sentence "This is a god-given god cat" just now hit Li Yan's cool point deeply. I was too sorry for the exaggeration if I watched the joke by the side in a daze.

But of course he couldn't wake up the little one in front of that teacher. Firstly, it would be too conspicuous, and secondly, it would be too embarrassing, making him seem too incompetent.

When the teacher was really helpless and went out to ask the hostess about the correct posture to communicate with her son, Li Yan immediately came over and typed on the computer.

He typed two words this time. "No", "Bank", "Dao OK", and then nodded to Xiao Bu.

To be honest, in the past, when the two of them took study as a play, they didn't feel anything. Now that they have a regular teacher, they can really feel that the previous knowledge learning was not systematic enough.

For example, Xiaobudian only knows that some characters have many pronunciations, but he does not have the concept of "polyphonic characters".But he stared at the two words Li Yan typed out, and understood what he meant, and suddenly realized: "Oh, this is equivalent to two a's that look the same, right?"

His understanding of polyphonic characters is twins, triplets, or seven fairies, who look the same on the outside, but are actually two completely different people.In this way, he doesn't have to worry about the pinyin a and the letter a at all, and it doesn't matter that they have their own rules for using them.

Li Yan could tell from his expression that he had fully understood. Although this explanation is not very accurate, but for Xiaobudian, who can only think about problems with rational thinking, you can use emotional definitions to explain it to him. It doesn't make sense at all.

The teacher obviously didn't understand Xiao BuDian's pulse, but Li Yan didn't intend to let the other party know that he helped him. If someone thinks that he is too unbelievable and treats him as a monster, that would be bad.

So he raised the index finger of his left paw, put it on his mouth, and gave a soft "shh" to signal the little one to keep this matter a secret.

Xiao Budian has always enjoyed the atmosphere of "I have a little secret with you", so he nodded vigorously, covered his mouth with his hand, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, hungry meow, I won't tell anyone!"

The teacher went outside with the hostess who was on weekends, half questioning and half complaining. The little girl’s way of thinking is a bit peculiar, and she went to the bathroom by the way. Become full of fighting spirit.

As soon as the other party saw him enter the door, he immediately enthusiastically said: "Teacher, let's start learning Pinyin quickly! I can't wait to learn new knowledge!"

Teacher: "...what?"

Li Yan: "...=="

This is also a point that he has discovered a long time ago about the little one that makes people speechless. Just like his emotional performance in the speech at the graduation ceremony, this kid is easy to use too much force when he encounters troubles, which makes people suspicious for no reason. .

Anyway, seeing the suspicious expression on the teacher's face, it was obvious that he was suspicious. He looked at the little one suspiciously for a long time, and hesitated, "Didn't you say that Pinyin is useless to you?"

The little one always speaks nonsense casually, and said seriously: "Of course not, any kind of knowledge in the world has its own use." While speaking, he had already found a reasonable reason for himself, "Learned pinyin After that, I was able to learn pinyin to type!"

The teacher's expression softened all of a sudden, thinking about it, this explanation is not unacceptable, and even the idea that the little one thinks strangely faded away, and said seriously: "Okay, since you decided to come to learn, then teacher I will definitely ask you strictly, let's start with the pronunciation first."

This serious and stern attitude made Xiao Dodian feel that this teacher is really reliable, and he did not blind his ugly face in vain, so he nodded vigorously: "Okay, I must study hard! "

Sure enough, this child is the type who likes to be treated harshly. Li Yan secretly turned his head and smiled at himself after seeing the little one shouting, as if he was secretly pleased that he successfully fooled the teacher without making him suspicious.

It doesn't work if you have a long-term mind. You said that if you can focus your talent and skills on art aesthetics or geometric cognition, you won't be so biased.

Li Yan shook his head helplessly, and made a gesture to signal him to concentrate on listening.Xiao BuDian immediately nodded heavily, took a thin matt to take notes, and secretly tore a page for him.

Li Yan picked it up while the teacher was not paying attention, and found that it said "Hungry meow, you are my favorite teacher", and at the end there was a crooked and ugly smiling face.

He couldn't help but smiled and shook his head slightly.
