So annoying! And so useless!

I am referring to the education supervision given by the district education bureau. This time they ask for more paperwork (even including some from the students) than before.

As is known to us, teachers are very busy every day. Teachers have been doing their utmost to work. But who cares about this? They are still assigned more extra paperwork to write and compile.

How can they deal with it? So they have to make the work up irresponsibly. Even the students are involved in the complete fabrication. What kind of persons will they be in the future if we teachers set such a bad example to them like this?

This is the real current situation in the middle school education.

Each time the education inspection comes, the whole school and every teacher will start to produce batches of useless materials to muddle through the work.

A teacher is supposed to devote all their time to the key job --- teaching. The leading body should create good conditions for teachers to focus attentively on the education mission. The teachers as well as students must be reduced the work intensity, especially the useless paperwork.  

Compared with other provinces, Shandong is going too far in adding teachers’ tasks. And the same thing to our students.

Even the teachers’ overtime work is worth no penny.

The excessive seek for NMET achievements is defiling public opinion.

Congratulations! Liu Xiang and Shi Dongpeng!

The moment I came back home from the evening lessons, I switched on the net and looked through the Asian games news in a hurry, hoping to read the good news of Liu Xiang winning 100 meters hurdles race. Hooray! He won the race and Shi Dongpeng, too. They both are our pride! They are the heroes of the nation!

He won the most important gold medal of the Chinese sports delegation.

Ok. I have to watch the men’s basketball quarterfinal between China and Korea.

Hope they win the game too.

Liu Xiang achieved his twin aims of gold and a new Asian Games record when winning the men’s 110m hurdles at Khalifa Stadium on Wednesday. The Chinese superstar of the track was slow out of the start, but his superior speed and technique soon told and he stormed to the line in 13.15 seconds, 0.12 better than the Games record he set when winning in Busan, Korea four years ago.

It was double joy for China, as Liu dragged Shi Dongpeng through to a new personal best of 13.28 for the silver. The bronze went to Masato Naoto of Japan in 13.60. There was also noteworthy performance for the home fans to enjoy as Mohammed Essa MA Al Thawadi finished 6th in a new personal best of 13.89.

After his victory, Liu said, "Before the race I planned to run slower, but after the start I saw a black shadow following me. I was scared to be defeated by him. So I picked up. I felt very relaxed. If I am nervous I will not achieve a good result. Seeing as it's the end of the [competition] year, I am very satisfied with the result.

He also revealed his plans for the coming days, "I want to do some shopping. I heard that watches in Doha are very cheap. I want to buy some for my family.” Looking further ahead in his career, he said, "My goal is to win at the Beijing Olympic Games. And see you in Guangzhou." He said, in reference to the next Asian Games.

After racing to silver, Shi said, “The first part was good, but my speed in the last part is not as good as Liu." Bronze medallist Naito said, "The competitor next to me [Shi] went fast. I was thinking that I was going to finish third at least. I wanted to try to finish second. I prepared well for the race, but I lack experience of real races." He also revealed something of his history with the gold medallist, he said, "I trained with Mr Liu Xiang when I was in high school with the same coach."
