This is my first trip to the capital, and also the first trip to the international conference. In the conference, I was greatly shocked by the following two things!
First, and also the one impressed me most, is my poor English! So poor that I can’t bear. In the conference, most presentations are made in English, no matter the speaker is Chinese or foreigners. And when you want to communicate with or ask some questions to the speaker, you have to speak English! So with poor English, I neither understand the main idea clearly nor have any chance to talk to the famous curriculum experts. There is another thing made me regret most, when a foreign female professor from the UAE came to me and commended my shoes ”nice shoes”, I had no word except “thank you”! Oh, my god! I can’t bear my poor English!
Then, the second one is there are so many famous people. I had the honor to meet so many of them at the same time. I was very glad. But a little odd, I found I experts who we think highly of are just ordinary people, especially comparing with the more famous people in the world! Haha! Interesting!
