Reflections on Chinese and American Educational Methods

It's been 20 years since the American movie "October Sky", and it is still a high-scoring movie when it is watched in theaters. The whole film is an inspirational film for teenagers. Compared with the education methods of Chinese children of the same age today, there are still many things to think about. In high school, was the teacher able to help the ideal child to work hard towards the goal and support him? Is there such a parent, and is there a group of friends who have the same idol as him? The video is there, and finally the dream came true! And if this is in the environment of education with Chinese characteristics, is there still room for dreams to come true? Maybe there is, maybe not, the three-point and one-line study life in the dormitory classroom canteen has long numbed most of the curiosity. The plot was bland and restrained, and it moved me again. I saw tears in my eyes when the little boy became an aerospace engineer when his dream came true.

    When I watched it today, I just remembered that I watched it in the weekend theater of the Central Set in junior high school. Jake Gyllenhaal was still a young lady at that time, ahaha

    8.4 We are different. Your roots are rooted in the deepest ground, and my heart is soaring in the higher sky. Every time I go down the mine and then go up the well, I am full of awe for life. We are all the same, even if life has dyed the body and mind with a layer of ashes, the stubbornness and persistence that have been passed down through the generations can burn bright. The hearts and hearts of father and son seem to be far apart, but the blood has always been closely connected. And the Rocket Boy is filled with dreams, family, friendship and the fuel of the whole town and finally rises into the sky. The clichéd inspirations have moved people's hearts again and again, just because there is always a good side in their hearts.
