教奶奶说英语
在我的记忆里，一直记得一件事：教奶奶说英文。

那天晚上，我和弟弟在看电视，奶奶在一旁看报纸，突然，奶奶看到一个大标题：学习说英语，老少皆可。

过了一会儿，奶奶支支吾吾的说":先晓琳，先伟豪，你俩教教我说英语吧！”我和弟弟相互看了看对方，呆了，一秒，两秒，三秒“可不可以啊？”奶奶忍不住说了一句。

我先开了口：“奶奶，你为什么突然要学英语啊？”“对啊，对啊。

”弟弟听了以后也跟着表示了自己的想法。

奶奶把手上的报纸一摊，告诉我们。

哦，原来是这样啊，奶奶是因为看到报纸上写着“学习说英语，老少皆可。

”的字样。

我首先答应了，弟弟看我答应了，也不得不点了点头。

“教奶奶说英语就从现在开始了！”我兴奋的说。

首先，我和弟弟教奶奶说“one”可奶奶却说成“万”我和弟弟让奶奶勉强过关，后来，我和弟弟接着教了奶奶“two”至“ten”的单词，奶奶都是勉强过关。

当我们开始教水果的单词的时候，奶奶就犯难了。

一开始，我们先教奶奶说香蕉的单词，可是奶奶却说成“不奶奶”我和弟弟差点晕了过去，不管我和弟弟怎么重复的读这个单词，奶奶还是读不准，而且时不时还造出“新”的单词来！我们只好放弃这个单词，我又教奶奶读“等等”的单词，如“pen”、“bus”……可奶奶却读成“盘，巴死”……奶奶没学会一个单词，就会把我和弟弟弄得快笑死！过了一会儿，我和弟弟同时说“奶奶，求求
你不要在学英语了！”奶奶听了以后，尴尬的把头低了下去。

“YES。

”我和弟弟大叫
学说英语真的快要把我和弟弟笑死！所以，我和弟弟坚决不会让奶奶再学说英语的！。

伟莲英语：老太太学英语，你肯定没见过这么学英语的“What’s your name?”这是一个老太太顺口说的一句话。

“I’m Lao Li.”、”My name is Lao Zhang.”这是一群中老年人七嘴八舌的声音，还感觉有人没有跟上节奏，然后哄然笑起来。

从2006开始，不太熟练的英语和欢快的笑声就经常出现在街道里。

只要听到这些声音，附近居民就知道，杨老师又来教大家上课了。

杨老师叫杨伟莲，1992年，在海关当翻译的杨伟莲辞去了公职，大胆打破了“铁饭碗”，创办了伟莲外语学校，成为广东省创办最早的英语培训机构之一。

那几年为迎接奥运会，不少社区的老太太都开始学英语。

杨伟莲感受到这些老人迎奥运学英语的热情，便开始利用自身优势，将外语学校的苗头发展到老年人身上。

那时，公司已经成立了几年，有了一定的教学基础，但是对于老人这个群体需要新开发一套学英语的方法，因为社区老年人学英语难，开发方法需要实践和案例，所以刚开始的伟连英语对老人都是义务免费教学，有志愿者义务教学求之不得，老人和教师双方一拍即合。

从那时开始杨伟莲带着他的教师团队在社区里先开设了首家英语公益课堂，为社区的离退休人员提供免费的英语培训。

一周上两次课，每次两小时。

转眼快十年过去了，杨伟莲依然对上课初期的情景记忆犹新：每次来上课的人不少，可她刚讲一两句就总有老人说，“学太多了，领着我们多复习几遍吧”。

有的老太太还经常拍着头说：“不行啦，上年纪了，记不住东西了，学慢点，再学慢点吧。

”那时杨伟莲对老人教学的方法已经有了一定的摸索，考虑到老人中最大的都有70多岁了，让他们记住枯燥的单词并准确发音难度之大，为此，对老人订制专设课程，将英语单词和生活中之际运用的场景联系起来，用各种形象的解释来加深他们的记忆。

讲音标时，他利用归类加联想的方式，将所有发这个音的英语单词连贯起来，组合成一个故事，让老人呢在脑海中形成一幅画面，以便让大家能够清晰地记住、准确地运用。

中国大妈跳广场舞英语作文Chinese Aunties Dancing in the Town SquareChina is a vast and diverse country with a rich cultural heritage that is celebrated in many unique ways. One such tradition that has become increasingly popular in recent years is the phenomenon of "square dancing" or "plaza dancing" performed by groups of middle-aged and elderly women, affectionately known as "Chinese Aunties." These vibrant public dance gatherings have become a ubiquitous sight in urban centers across the country, offering a glimpse into the lively social lives and active lifestyles of China's older generation.The origins of square dancing in China can be traced back to the 1980s, when the country began to open up and embrace a more modern, consumer-driven society. As the pace of life quickened and leisure time became more scarce, many retirees and homemakers sought out ways to stay physically and socially engaged. Square dancing provided the perfect outlet, allowing groups of women to come together on a regular basis, exercise, and enjoy a sense of community.The appeal of square dancing lies in its simplicity and accessibility. The dances are typically performed to upbeat, repetitive music, with choreographed routines that are easy to learn and execute. Participants do not require any specialized skills or training, making it an inclusive activity that welcomes women of all ages and fitness levels. The dance moves are often inspired by traditional Chinese folk dances, as well as more contemporary styles like line dancing and aerobics, creating a unique fusion of cultural elements.One of the most striking aspects of Chinese square dancing is the sheer scale and energy of the performances. In major cities, it is not uncommon to see hundreds, if not thousands, of women gathered in public spaces such as parks, plazas, or even busy intersections, moving in perfect synchronization to the rhythm of the music. The sight is both mesmerizing and joyful, as the dancers, clad in colorful, coordinated outfits, express their enthusiasm and camaraderie through their movements.Beyond the physical aspect, square dancing also serves as a vital social outlet for many Chinese Aunties. For these women, who may have retired from the workforce or found themselves with more free time as their children have grown up and moved away, the dance gatherings provide an opportunity to connect with their peers, share experiences, and forge meaningful relationships. The communalnature of the activity fosters a sense of belonging and support, helping to combat the isolation and loneliness that can sometimes accompany the later stages of life.Moreover, square dancing has become a source of pride and cultural identity for many Chinese Aunties. The dances are often seen as a way to preserve and celebrate traditional Chinese values, such as the importance of community, respect for elders, and the pursuit of a healthy, active lifestyle. By coming together to dance, these women are not only exercising their bodies but also their cultural heritage, passing on the traditions to younger generations and showcasing the vitality and resilience of China's older population.Despite the growing popularity of square dancing, the activity has also faced its fair share of criticism and challenges. Some have argued that the loud music and large crowds can be disruptive to the public, particularly in urban areas where space is limited. There have also been concerns about the potential safety risks, as the dances often take place in busy public spaces with heavy foot and vehicle traffic.In response to these concerns, local authorities have sought to regulate and manage square dancing, designating specific areas for the activity and setting guidelines for noise levels and crowd control. However, these efforts have sometimes been met with resistancefrom the Aunties, who view the restrictions as an infringement on their right to freely express themselves and enjoy their leisure time.Ultimately, the phenomenon of Chinese Aunties dancing in the town square is a complex and multifaceted cultural phenomenon that reflects the changing social dynamics and priorities of China's aging population. While the activity may face ongoing challenges and adjustments, it remains a powerful symbol of the resilience, community, and cultural pride of a generation of women who are determined to live their golden years to the fullest.。
