成绩好,聪明学生?

一般上,要把知识化为记忆囤积在脑海,须要对某事物有认知,认知要靠领悟的本能。领悟性强与弱,就得视个人的熟悉感的吸收力。学生们在上课时老师还未教导的课程,如果学生们能针对老师即教的课程来个参考或阅读;当老师开始教导那篇课,熟悉感会让学生的领悟性有着 醍醐灌顶的功能让他们顿时开窍呢!

显然的,学校考试是考学生们的记忆力。记忆力较差者,成绩不好,记忆力强者,理所当然的成绩好,所以不能把聪明与成绩好,愚笨成绩差相题并论因为聪明与愚笨与成绩不是有间接关系。反而,脑力与年龄有直接的关系。大致上,学校班级的安排是根据学生的年龄来分配。但年龄是没依据学生的月份;这就是说学生们的年岁的差异有可能会有最高的一岁之间!例如,一月出生者与十二月出生者被安排在同班上共学习共考试,是谁占优势呢?

缓解考试压力有赖于父母与孩子的相互沟通。许多孩子怕家长,这就是问题!为什么“怕”?关系不好吧?是不是孩子不听话?不听话是不是因为家长的话不能听?那肯定家长要自己孩子比别人的孩子强!别人考90分,他们要他考95 分或更高!最后,孩子变了不再听话了!最后难于沟通了!

当知识入脑时

学校考试,政府考试将举行,学生们面对考试的压力甚大。为什么会有压力?压力乃因考试前的准备工作不足,没有信心考获好成绩来面对父母吧?没有信心是否是自己定下的目标是非本身的能力能够达至的呢?还是不能达到父母要自己的考试成绩比他人更好的期望?

学生的压力来自考试。无论是小学还是中学考试,都是以测量考生的为根基。所以,记忆力强者是占有一定的优势!加强考生的记忆力是考试前的准备工作。新的课程,新的讲义对学生是陌生的,没有一点熟悉感。一旦对它有了熟悉感,又不断的背念,认知后就变了知识,成了知识就库存入脑海为记忆。考试到来,考生只须费少许时间温习,印在脑海中的就会如水般的泄流而出。

短缩关系从句 ( Reduced Relative clauses )

英语文法中有短缩关系从句 ( Reduced Relative clauses ),如果无法掌握其用法,很难明白句子的意思。

The letter which was sent to you was redirected to me.

上面是关系从句 ( Relative clauses ),但它可缩短至

The letter sent to you was redirected to me.

关系从句 ( Relative clauses )的which was 已被删除掉了。

再看看以下的例子:

1. I had my car repaired yesterday.

原文是:I had my car repaired by the mechanic yesterday.

原文中的by the mechanic已被删除掉了

2. Please show me the house rented was not meant for illegal activities.

原文是:Please show me the house which was rented was not meant for illegal activities

原文中的which was 已被删除掉了

3. Any money paid will not be refunded.

原文是: Any money which had been paid will not be refunded.

原文中的which had been 已被删除掉了

Although, though, in spite of, despite of

Although, though, in spite of, despite of 是“虽然”的意思。但它们的用法,有不同点。

Although, though 是 连词(conjunctions) 。它们须置于clauses 条文或句子的前端。例子如下:

Although the book was expensive, I bought it.

Although he did not like that movie, he still accompanied his wife to the theatre.

Though the company suffered losses heavily, the company still paid out bonuses to its staff.

Though she was tired, she went on working.

in spite of, despite of 是介词(prepositions),它们须置于名词 ( Noun)的前端。 例子如下

In spite of the time limitation, he finished the exam in time.

They went out in spite of the rain.

Despite of his objection, the development plan was approved.

We bought the house despite its bad location.

看看以下的句子:

They went out though raining. (错)

They went out in spite of the rain. (对)

Despite the price was high, he bought it. (错)

Although the price was high, he bought it. (对)

我国华社的悲哀!

政治最好的功能就是它能让清醒的人看透政客的真正的面目。政治人物是经验老道,善于“见人说人话,见鬼说鬼话”,随机应变的熟练手法让情绪易于波动选民难于区别。对于冷静,思维成熟的选民,在“听其言,观其行”下,政客会原形毕露,赤 裸裸的暴露他们的丑态和谎话。这些政客在他们的族群前,高声大喊捍卫他们的权益,但在非他的族群前,却默声不出,一句不敢再谈他本身族群的权益!

为了利益,这些政客没有立场,颠倒黑白;为土霸漂泊,为华族的敌人站台。这是我国华社的悲哀!

Where the room charges on tourits go ?

Room surcharge or Levy has been imposed and implemented by Penang Government since June 2014. The authority said the levy collected would be used to promote tourism in Penang for the benefits of visiting tourists. It has been almost three years since the collection of levy but we have not heard much about the development plans or promotional events pertaining to the tourism or its related operation.

There is an obvious lack of information centres on most of the Penang tourist centres. What the tourists especially non-local tourists need is the information and briefing on the attractions where they are visiting. Not only information centres are not available but also booths and stalls where pamphlets flyers and brochures can be obtained are hard to locate and find.

In some foreign countries where tourism is blooming, shutter buses are easily available from hotels to designated tourist spots and to ease the maintenance of these fleet of vehicles transporting tourists to the tourist sports, the local authorities can reimburse the hoteliers with the levy collected.

Levy collection is logic and relevant to be used to fund the tourism related activities including the maintenance. There are still many improvements needed for enhancement of the infrastructure in the tourist spots such as toileting facilities and erection and placement of informative signage.

政客又出现了

大马选民很无奈又无助,一直以来就受到无良和经验丰富政客的游说把选票投给他们。要不是前首相马哈迪医生因私利与现任首相纳吉反目成仇,我们不会看到这些政客的真正无耻无立场没有原则的丑陋的另一面。

这群政客为了选票,善搞课题煽动华裔选民的情绪不惜牺牲国民团结的根基。第十四届全国大选即将来临,我们相信这些政客又将在政治市场推出应时性的产品来吸引选民捞取选票。甚么华教课题,华社问题,宗教问题,自由民主等等,只要能在讲座会,宣传或文宣能有吸引力,能卖座有号召力就是他们的利用品。

今天我国的华裔须面对种种的障碍和困境,最大的问题是不懂如何鉴别政客和政治家。政客为私利,政治家为国为民不为私利而存。还有更重要的是,我们华裔选民也不能区别应时性的政治产品的虚与实,真与假。在情绪被煽动时,误判就出现了。所以,冷静的头脑,深思后的决定来投票是重要的。
