开了个家长会,感觉对学校的提升了许多。全校200多学生,外教实打实地二十多个,美术、体育、乐队、合唱等副科全是实打实的外教,比起有的国际学校师资配比好多了。
每个科目在固定的教师,家长集体与老师见面。
逐个看老师:
language art 老师:文质彬彬,绅士气度非凡。才知道目前孩子每天在家阅读的材料是前几年的一本畅销书the omnivore's dilemma。我这读了多少年的chinglish的,即时查解释,对稍微复杂的从句也有阅读障碍。原初一的时候英语课本,相比之下真是单薄多了。In the second section, Pollan describes the large-scale farms and food-processing outfits that largely satisfy surging demand for organic food, using Whole Foods as a proxy. The author aims to demonstrate that, despite the group's rhetoric, the virtues on sale often prove questionable. The "free-range" chicken on offer, it turns out, hails from a confinement operation with a tiny yard, largely unused by the short-lived birds. Pollan also accuses large-scale organic agriculture of "floating on a sinking sea of petroleum" by analysing that a one-pound box of California-produced organic lettuce – that contains 80 food calories – requires 4,600 calories of fossil fuel to process and ship to the East Coast. He adds that the figure would be only "about 4 percent higher if the salad were grown conventionally". () |
