I Have a Dream-Learn More from the Best

Martin Luther King的演讲很精彩,举世闻名,解放了黑人兄弟们,也给我们学习演讲和语言的人提供了很好的范例。这次的晨读主题的重点不是发音,所以自己也把主要精力放在语言的运用和文化上。

优美的背诵

Eric和Justin一直强调的背诵学习的效果会很惊人,我知道,但是一直想忙过这一阵子就要开始,从…开始背起…多长时间要把这本书背完…然后自己的演讲水平、写作水平就会突飞猛进…达到人生巅峰…实现自由发挥甚至带着客户投资人去做路演……,很遗憾的是,我从来没有忙完这一阵子,如果不是这次晨读,可能永远都忙不过吧……课程开始之前,Eric说每天会cold call大家的背诵,我想抽到我的话我应该会偷偷的看着读吧,我怎么可能记得住!结果是,从第一天就把自己惊艳到了,课前十分钟预习+上课的半个小时后,我竟然可以在上完课就把作业要求的句子记住,这很神奇,所以课程结束后我也要坚持晨背,直到达到“人生巅峰”的dream make real。

Day 1. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

Day 2. One hundred years later the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.

Day 3 . This note was a promise that all men-yes, black men as well as white men-would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Day 4. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.

Day 5. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.

Day 6. And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.

Day 7. Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our Northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.

Day 8. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

Day 9. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free for one day.

Day 10. Free at last, free at last, Great God a-mighty, We are free at last.

这十天的背诵,在开营之前它们只是我用来学习的素材,在Eric十天的讲解,自己每天的背诵理解后,现在感觉和它们异常亲切,像是已经成了可以让自己骄傲嘚瑟的新技能。

语言的魅力在于把习以为常的单词、句子用神奇的魔法堆在一起,就能变成一件艺术品。朗朗上口的段落聚集起来,把当年那个场景,25万渴望自由的黑人齐聚一堂的场景,在我们眼前展现的淋漓尽致。

这么漂亮的素材,是值得我们反复研究,细细品味的。这篇因为有了这十个句子,应该会成为今后地铁上每天必定复习一遍的吧。

6:30,一天的开始

每天的早起可以把一天拉长,平时早起会看会儿书发发呆,在完全属于自己的时间里慵懒的放松。在这个十天里面,每天都紧张的预习复习,还要全神贯注的听,生怕错过一个知识点,真是超级爽快啊,希望下次还可以抢到课。

相约下个十天

10月结束不是可以放松,在下次课程开始的时候,有所进步才不负每天的努力。2018对我来说是个挑战的一年,生活、家庭、工作,无一消停。还好没有彻底消沉,跟着社群伙伴们一起的学习算是我唯一的收获了,虽然每次并没有全力以赴,但被凤头们带着走,即使我踉跄翻跟头,也是前进了不少。每天,比昨天多练习一点,多进步一点,就是收获。

在下次课来之前,I have a dream会是每天必读的材料,所以那些现在被我忽略的小词汇们,很快会被我逮到哒。
