Problem description:

Concise and comprehensive

Analysis:

Zhang, graduated from the Russian Department of Beijing Normal University, is a professor at the School of Foreign Languages of Beijing Normal University. 1On March 4th, 997, Professor Qian Yuan, doctoral supervisor of Beijing Normal University, died of illness at the age of 59. She is the only daughter of Qian Zhongshu and my college classmate Jiang Yang. Classmate for several years, but have never been to her home. After graduation, Qian Yuan, my wife Haiyun and I all stayed at school to work. 1960 Around the Spring Festival

She invited us to her home. After taking a seat by the door, Mr. Jiang Yang brought hot tea and biscuits, and Mr. Qian Zhongshu came out to help his daughter entertain guests. He said, "Yuan often talks about you. Welcome to visit. " During the conversation, Qian Lao learned that I was from Jiangyin and said happily, "Oh, what a coincidence! I am from Wuxi, and we are fellow villagers! Before liberation, Sunan people had a saying: Jiangyin robber Wuxi thief, thief and thief are a family! " Talking and laughing. I was deeply impressed by Qian Lao's funny talk. Then he talked about Mr. Zheng Ruzhen, a professor of English Department of Beijing Normal University who translated Mao Xuan with him, and said that Professor Zheng worked hard and wrote very well. Tan Xing is rich. He talked about how to pay attention to the characteristics of two languages in translation and mentioned some important translation theory problems. Unfortunately, I was young, naive and ignorant of real money, so I missed the opportunity to ask him for advice. 1960 In late spring and early summer, Beijing Normal University held an exhibition on educational reform. The organizers of the exhibition are all young teachers. Qian Yuan and I were transferred from the Foreign Languages Department. I am an editor and she is an artist. In class 59, four generals are called "demons": in the history department, people pronounce "one" as "demon", which is the origin of "demon"; A physics department can do magic, and the title of "magic" deserves its name; One of the biology departments has long been nicknamed "kid", and of course he is a "ghost". And Qian Yuan is the only woman among the four. She doesn't have a nickname, but since she ranks fourth, she has to recognize the word "strange". "Demon" and "Demon" dated for many years, fell in love and finally got married. People call it "monster marriage", and their marriage is very happy. Mr Jiang Yang mentioned his son-in-law Wang Deyi in Six Chapters of Cadre School. 1969 1 1 month, when the money delivery man got on the bus, Wang De came forward to help him as soon as he saw that someone was carrying too much luggage. The article describes the parents' mood at this time: "Silent and I can't help admiring the good fashion of the new society, and at the same time comfort each other by saying: Deyi (this is the name given by Mr. Qian Zhongshu to his son-in-law, in Mr. Yang's article, editor's note) is kind and honest, and A Yuan is with him, so we can rest assured." But who would have thought that just six months later, when Beijing Normal University was besieged on May 16th, Wang Deyi was framed and forced to commit suicide. This is the biggest blow in Qian Yuan's life. Now, 27 years later, "strange" also walks with "demon". On March 8, "Magic" and "Ghost" came together to bid farewell to the body. In those days, I sent away a "demon" with grief and indignation, but today I bid farewell to "monster" with sadness, which makes people deeply moved. Not long ago, I saw the list of 55th graduates from Beijing 12 Middle School, and everyone introduced themselves. Qian Yuan wrote: "I graduated from 1959 and have been working in the Foreign Languages Department of Beijing Normal University. He taught Russian before the Cultural Revolution, and now he teaches English. He is in charge of a postgraduate training program with English teaching as the professional direction. I take two or three specialized courses every semester. Although it is difficult to prepare lessons, I can keep learning new things. It is really' only half learned'. " What impressed me most about this self-report of less than 100 words was her modesty. She was the first student in our class to be promoted to professor and doctoral supervisor, but she always felt that her original major was Russian. Now she is going to teach English, so she has to work harder and learn while teaching, which is why she says she has only learned half. In fact, Qian Yuan has a deep family background and a solid English foundation. He didn't stop learning English while learning Russian. When he switched to teaching English on 1966, his level was not low. From 65438 to 0978, he studied at Lancaster University in England for two years, and visited Newcastle University in England from 65438 to 0990 to study English Stylistics, Pragmatics and Applied Linguistics, and wrote English Stylistics Course (English version), English Speech Rhythm, English Poetry Metry and other articles. Some people say that she comes from a rich academic family and her works must be attributed to her parents. As far as I know, when Qian Yuan encounters a problem, Yang Qian's parents always put forward the search scope or the title of the book, so that she can find, read and solve the problem by herself. Qian Yuan and I were in the same teaching and research section in the 1960s, and we have a deep understanding of her earnest work and rigorous scholarship. Later, I transferred to another school to specialize in literature, and we didn't have much contact. I returned to the Foreign Languages Department on 1993. At this time, she is already a doctoral supervisor and academic leader of the department, and her mind is full of academic development and echelon construction. At that time, she was in charge of a Sino-British cooperative project to train graduate students in English teaching. In the past five years, she has trained more than 90 graduate students and teaching assistants, and was praised as one of the "most successful projects" by the British Overseas Development Agency and the Cultural Association. She also won the China Beijing Normal University and the Beijing Excellent Teaching Achievement Award respectively. Being a professor and a doctoral supervisor is certainly a good thing, but outsiders can't understand the joys and sorrows. Qian Yuan is indifferent to fame and fortune, but he can attach importance to the responsibility on his shoulders. Because of the shortage of manpower, her doctoral supervisor offered undergraduate courses in addition to postgraduate courses. In addition, she lives in the city, so it is inconvenient to travel, so the classes are arranged intensively, with four classes in two mornings a week. It's tiring to turn four joints in a row. At this time, she was as excited and nervous as when she was preparing for war at the army level. Traffic jams often occur in Beijing during rush hours. In this case, the usually calm and elegant doctoral supervisor is like an ant on hot bricks. In order not to miss classes, there is only one way: get up early and leave early. Once, I got up late for work at night, hurried out, hurried all the way, arrived at the station, waited for the bus, crowded the bus ... finally arrived at school, relieved, but went up the steps of the teaching building, looked down and found that my leather shoes were actually yellow and black. What a big mistake I made in my haste! What shall we do? I have to ask a teacher who lives on campus to go home quickly and bring my wife's shoes ... It seems like a funny little thing, but it shows Qian Yuan's nervousness. She is like a clockwork machine, which can't be loosened. Once I asked her how she was doing, and she replied, "I'm exhausted." I advised her to "stop" quickly, and she said, "I'm on the back of a tiger ..." If a person has achieved something, he will have fame, and if he has fame, he will attract more titles, whether you can do it or not, whether you like it or not. Qian Yuan has many titles: Head of Sino-British Cooperation Project, Editorial Committee of English Language and Literature, Steering Committee of Foreign Language Specialty in National Universities, Editorial Committee of Textbooks, Academic Committee of Beijing Normal University, and various members of Academic Degree Committee ... The titles and positions are like ropes, which makes Qian Yuan unable to move. In addition, she is famous for her "die-hard loyalty", which is surprising and admirable. Take the annual job title evaluation as an example. Qian Yuan is a member of the school evaluation committee and the head of the foreign language evaluation team. It is complicated and time-consuming, and many papers and monographs are sent from all over the country, all for her evaluation. To judge, you must learn. What a workload it is! On one occasion, a paper was sent from a university in other provinces. Qian Yuan felt deja vu after reading it, but after reading it again, he felt even more plagiarized. However, this matter is very important, and we should not jump to conclusions too early. So she searched the bookshelf according to her memory, and finally found the original, and then read it from the beginning, listing the page numbers and paragraphs of the plagiarized part. Afterwards, the school wrote a thank-you letter, but they didn't know how much energy Qian Yuan had put into it.
