A  Teachers  Lesson  
『按:这是校长吴沄先生在金苹果报上发出了一篇文章,阐明了教育心理学的真谛,老师如何正确评价孩子与给与启迪,也许给每位读者带来不少的收益。』
Many  years  ago,  Mrs.  Thompson  stood  in  front  of  her  5th  grade  class  and  told  the  children  a  lie  that  she  loved  them  all  the  same.  But  that  was  impossible,  because  there  in  the  front  row,  a  little  boy  named  Teddy  Stoddard  was  so  messy  and  inattentive  in  class  that  Mrs.  Thompson  would  actually  take  delight  in  marking  his  papers  with  a  broad  red  pen,  making  bold  Xs  and  then  putting  a  big  "F"  at  the  top  of  his  papers.  
    许多年前,汤普逊老师对着她五年级的学生们撒了一个谎:她说她回平等地爱每个孩子!但这是不可能的,因为前排就坐着泰迪.史塔特――一个邋遢、上课不专心的小男孩,事实上,汤普逊老师很喜欢用粗红笔在泰迪的考卷上画大大的叉,然后在最上排写个不及格!
One  day,  as  Mrs.  Thompson  was  reviewing  each  childs  past  records,  she  was  surprised  by  comments  of  Teddys  former  teachers:  
某一天,汤普逊老师检视每个学生以前的学习记录表,她意外地发现泰迪之前地老师给的评语十分惊人:
"Teddy  is  a  bright  child  with  a  ready  laugh.  He  does  his  work  neatly  and  has  good  manners...he  is  a  joy  to  be  around,"  wrote  Teddys  first  grade  teacher.  
一年级老师写道:“泰迪是个聪明的孩子,永远面带笑容,他的作业很整洁,很有礼貌,他让周围的人很快乐!”
His  second  grade  teacher  wrote,  "Teddy  is  an  excellent  student,  well  liked  by  his  classmates,  but  he  is  troubled  because  his  mother  has  a  terminal  illness  and  life  at  home  must  be  a  struggle."  
二年级老师写道:“泰迪很优秀,很受同学欢迎,但他的母亲罹患了绝症,他很担心,家里生活一定不好过!”
His  third  grade  teacher  wrote,  "His  mothers  death  has  been  hard  on  him.  He  tries  to  do  his  best  but  his  father  doesnt  show  much  interest  and  his  home  life  will  soon  affect  him  if  some  steps  arent  taken."  
三年级老师:“母亲过世泰迪一定不好过,他很努力表现但父亲总不在意,若再没有改善,他的家庭生活将严重打击泰迪。”    
Teddys  fourth  grade  teacher  wrote,  "Teddy  is  withdrawn  and  doesnt  show  much  interest  in  school.  He  doesnt  have  many  friends  and  sometimes  sleeps  in  class."  
四年级老师:“泰迪开始退缩,对课业提不起兴趣,没有什么朋友,有时会在课堂上睡觉。”    
By  now,  Mrs.  Thompson  realized  the  problem  and  she  was  ashamed  of  herself.  She  felt  even  worse  when  her  students  brought  her  Christmas  presents,  wrapped  in  beautiful  ribbons  and  bright  paper,  except  for  Teddys.  His  present  which  was  clumsily  wrapped  in  the  heavy,  brown  paper  that  he  got  from  a  grocery  bag.  
  直到现在,汤普逊老师才了解泰迪的困难而深感羞愧,而当她收到泰迪送的圣诞礼物――别人的礼物用缎带及包装纸装饰得漂漂亮亮,泰迪送得礼物却是用杂货店的牛皮纸袋捆起来――汤普逊老师更觉得难过。
Mrs.  Thompson  took  pains  to  open  it  in  the  middle  of  the  other  presents.  Some  of  the  children  started  to  laugh  when  she  found  a  rhinestone  bracelet  with  some  of  the  stones  missing,  and  a  bottle  that  was  one  quarter  full  of  perfume.  But  she  stifled  the  childrens  laughter  when  she  exclaimed  how  pretty  the  bracelet  was,  putting  it  on,  and  dabbing  some  of  the  perfume  on  her  wrist.  
汤普逊老师忍着心酸,当着全班的面拆开泰迪的礼物,有的孩子开始嘲笑泰迪送的圣诞礼物:一条假钻手环,上面还缺了几颗宝石,另外是一罐只剩四分之一的香水。但是汤普逊老师不但惊呼漂亮,还带上手环,并喷了一些香水在手腕上,其他小朋友全都楞住了。
Teddy  Stoddard  stayed  after  school  that  day  just  long  enough  to  say,  "Mrs.  Thompson,  today  you  smelled  just  like  my  Mom  used  to."  After  the  children  left  she  cried  for  at  least  an  hour.  On  that  very  day,  she  quit  teaching  reading,  and  writing,  and  arithmetic.  Instead,  she  began  to  teach  children.  
放学后泰迪.史塔特留下来对汤普逊老师说:“老师,你今天闻起来好像我妈咪喔!”一等泰迪回家,汤普迅老师整整哭了一个小时。就在那一天,汤普迅老师不再教“书”:不教阅读、不教写作、不教数学,相反地,她开始“教育孩童”!
Mrs.  Thompson  paid  particular  attention  to  Teddy.  As  she  worked  with  him,  his  mind  seemed  to  come  alive.  The  more  she  encouraged  him,  the  faster  he  responded.  By  the  end  of  the  year,  Teddy  had  become  one  of  the  smartest  children  in  the  class  and,  despite  her  lie  that  she  would  love  all  the  children  the  same,  Teddy  became  one  her  "teachers  pets."  
  汤普逊老师开始特别关注泰迪,而泰迪的心似乎重新活了过来,汤普逊老师越鼓励泰迪,泰迪的反应越快,到了学年尾声,泰迪已经成为班上最聪明的孩子之一。虽然汤普逊老师说过她会平等地爱每一个孩子,但泰迪却是她最喜欢的学生。
A  year  later,  she  found  a  note  under  her  door,  from  Teddy,  telling  her  that  she  was  still  the  best  teacher  he  ever  had  in  his  whole  life.  Six  years  went  by  before  she  got  another  note  from  Teddy.  He  then  wrote  that  he  had  finished  high  school,  third  in  his  class,  and  she  was  still  the  best  teacher  he  ever  had  in  his  whole  life.  
一年后,汤普逊老师再门边发现一张纸条,是泰迪写来的,上面说汤普逊老师是他一生中遇到最棒的老师!六年过去了,汤普逊老师又发现另一张泰迪写的纸条,泰迪已经高中毕业,成绩全班第三名,而汤普迅老师仍是他一生遇到的最棒的老师!
Four  years  after  that,  she  got  another  letter,  saying  that  while  things  had  been  tough  at  times,  hed  stayed  in  school,  had  stuck  with  it,  and  would  soon  graduate  from  college  with  the  highest  of  honors.  He  assured  Mrs.  Thompson  that  she  was  still  the  best  and  favorite  teacher  he  ever  had  in  his  whole  life.  
四年后,汤普迅老师又收到一封信,泰迪说有时候学校生活并不顺利,但他仍坚持下去,而不久的将来他将获得荣誉学位后毕业!他再一次告诉汤普逊老师,她仍是他这一辈子遇到最棒的老师!
Then  four  more  years  passed  and  yet  another  letter  came.  This  time  he  explained  that  after  he  got  his  bachelors  degree,  he  decided  to  go  a  little  further.  The  letter  explained  that  she  was  still  the  best  and  favorite  teacher  he  ever  had.  But  now  his  name  was  a  little  longer  --  the  letter  was  signed,  Theodore  F.  Stoddard,  M.D.  
四年过去了,泰迪又来了一封信。信里面告诉汤普逊老师,泰迪大学毕业后决定继续攻读更高学位,他也不忘再说一次,汤普逊老师还是他这一生遇到的最棒的老师,而这封信的结尾多了几个字:“泰迪.史塔特博士”。
The  story  doesnt  end  there.  You  see,  there  was  yet  another  letter  that  spring.  Teddy  said  hed  met  this  girl  and  was  going  to  be  married.  He  explained  that  his  father  had  died  a  couple  of  years  ago  and  he  was  wondering  if  Mrs.  Thompson  might  agree  to  sit  in  the  place  at  the  wedding  that  was  usually  reserved  for  the  mother  of  the  groom.  Of  course,  Mrs.  Thompson  did.  And  guess  what?  She  wore  that  bracelet,  the  one  with  several  rhinestones  missing.  And  she  made  sure  she  was  wearing  the  perfume  that  Teddy  remembered  his  mother  wearing  on  their  last  Christmas  together.  
故事还没结束呢!你瞧!该年春天又来了一封信,泰迪说他遇到生命中的女孩,马上要结婚了,泰迪解释说他的父亲几年前过世了,他希望汤普逊老师可以参加他的婚礼并坐上属于新郎“母亲”的位置,汤普逊老师完成了泰迪的心愿。但你知道吗?汤普逊老师竟然戴着当年泰迪送的假钻手环,还喷了同一瓶香水——泰迪母亲过世前的最后一个圣诞节用过的香水。
They  hugged  each,  and  Dr.  Stoddard  whispered  in  Mrs.  Thompsons  ear,  "Thank  you  Mrs.  Thompson  for  believing  in  me.  Thank  you  so  much  for  making  me  feel  important  and  showing  me  that  I  could  make  a  difference."  
他们互相拥抱,史塔特博士悄悄在耳边告诉汤普逊老师:“汤普逊老师,谢谢你相信我,谢谢你让我觉得自己很重要,让我相信我有能力去改变。”
Mrs.  Thompson,  with  tears  in  her  eyes,  whispered  back.  She  said,  "Teddy,  you  have  it  all  wrong.  You  were  the  one  who  taught  me  that  I  could  make  a  difference.  I  didnt  know  how  to  teach  until  I  met  you."  
汤普逊老师热泪盈眶,告诉泰迪:“泰迪,你错了!是你教导我、让我相信我有能力去改变。一直到遇见你,我才知道该怎么教书。”
