I remember…
Mary Chan asked her grandfather what he could remember about his secondary school. This is part of what he told her…
I'll never forget Mr. Tan.We called him Tiger Tan.He was our math teacher when I was in Sec 1.He was a wiry(筋骨强壮的),muscular man and he was very strict.I never saw him smile while I was at school.
Mr. Tan was an excellent math teacher. He explained everything slowly and clearly on the blackboard.When he looked at the class, you had to be looking at his hawk﹣like eyes.He stared at us like a tiger facing a group of rabbits. If you weren't looking directly at him, he summoned(命令)you to the front of the class. Then he took "Joey" from his cupboard. "Joey" was a length of garden hose about half a metre long. After few painful wallops(猛)from "Joey" you paid attention all the time!
Sometimes Mr. Tan felt that the class was getting sleepy. Then he suddenly said, "Outside everybody! Round the school! RUN!" He stood at the door of the classroom, waiting for us to return. He had a slipper(拖鞋)and hit the last one or two pupils. I was usually the first back.
We were all scared of Tiger Tan. We didn't like him but we respected(敬重)him. He was a good teacher and was always fair.
We had a very different math teacher in Sec 3. He was Mr. Hu. He was cheerful and friendly.When he entered the room, somebody would ask him how a camera worked. Then he spent the rest of the lesson explaining how something worked. He drew diagrams on the board and sometimes one of us asked another question to keep him talking. Most of the class sat and day﹣dreamed about food or sport. We weren't really interested in cameras. We just wanted to avoid doing any work.
We liked Mr. Hu but we didn't respect him. We knew that we didn't learn much in his lessons.
