Chapter 6: The Great Courage of the World
Senior Three Class Office
Fang Ruo Han had already arrived at the office early in the morning and started correcting the compositions assigned yesterday.
For her, composition is a comprehensive assessment of one's language proficiency. Those who write well should have a good foundation in language. At the same time, composition is also the best way to reflect psychology. As a new teacher, Fang Ruo Han needs to understand their psychology through these students' compositions.
As Fang Ruo Han corrected each composition one by one, she felt that her students were all very lovely.
Especially yesterday's composition of unlimited theme, they fully demonstrated their level.
One wrote about his ambitions, another about her campus romance, and some even commented on the bad social trends of today. Although these essays were nothing to Fang Ruohan, a top student in the Chinese department, they still amused her. Especially when there were several essays that had students confessing their love for her.
An hour later.
Fang Ruohan felt a bit tired.
Continuous correction, the excitement just now has slowly dissipated. Moreover, in this hour, he only corrected one or two decent compositions. Of course, this decency is also ordinary. It's just that, for high school students to be able to write such compositions, it should still be considered passable.
She stretched and continued to correct papers.
Huh?...
When Fang Ruo Han continued to correct his composition, a composition book suddenly appeared in front of him, absorbing Fang Ruo Han's attention.
To be precise, it was the two words on top of the composition that made Fang Ruo Han's eyes light up.
That's right, when learning Chinese, you will be extremely sensitive to characters.
A person's character can be reflected in their handwriting.
The first impression of these two words on Fang Ruohan is beautiful.
Of course, if it were just beautiful, Fang Ruo Han wouldn't be surprised.
Although these two characters look ordinary and plain, they are actually very powerful. Upon closer inspection, you can feel a strong aura emanating from them. Faintly visible is the momentum of gold armor and iron horses within the strokes. Each stroke is robust and forceful, and although it's just two short characters, they exude countless flavors.
Good handwriting.
Such characters, what ordinary characters, have clearly written words into the realm of gods.
That's right, it is indeed the realm of gods.
In the world of calligraphy, no matter how well-written, how meticulous, or how beautiful a character is, it's still just a character. However, the highest realm of calligraphy isn't about writing characters in a certain way, but rather about bringing out their spirit. Just like these two characters in front of me, at first glance they seem simple, but upon closer inspection, you'll find them more and more pleasing to the eye, more and more majestic.
Who would have thought that Tianhua No. 2 Middle School actually produced such a talent?
Just two short words can already reveal this person's attainments in calligraphy.
Especially when she thought of this person being a student in Class 7, Fang Ruo Han became even more excited.
Zhou Fan
Take another look at these two words and find out it's actually Zhou Fan.
Just now, Fang Ruo Han looked at these two characters with an appreciative eye, analyzing them. He didn't think the two characters "Zhou Fan" had any special meaning, but now that he's looking at them again, Fang Ruo Han is suddenly surprised. Could this be that Zhou Fan who calls himself "Beautiful Sister"?
As soon as she thought of the four words "beautiful sister", Fang Ruo Han's small face turned red, and she scolded herself, "What was I thinking? I'm a teacher now. Hmm, next time she calls me beautiful sister again, I'll definitely make her pay."
While thinking in her heart, Fang Ruohan opened her homework book at the same time.
If it can be said that the two words "Zhou Fan" just now showed a faintly discernible grand momentum, then when Fang Ruo Han opened up the composition written by Zhou Fan, that majestic momentum became even more apparent. Every single word seemed to jump out of the grid as if thousands of horses and soldiers were charging forward. Adding his title - What is Bravery, it was even more revealing of a murderous aura.
In ancient times, those who were called heroes or outstanding men must have had a strong sense of justice and a sense of what they could not tolerate. An ordinary man who suffers humiliation, draws his sword and rises up to fight, this is not enough to be considered brave. The great bravery in the world is when one suddenly faces a situation but is not startled, and when one is subjected to unjust treatment but does not get angry. This is because what they hold onto is very grand, and their aspirations are very far-reaching...
This is the first paragraph of the beginning.
The meaning of this sentence is that in ancient times, those who were called heroes and men of honor must have had a noble character and a tolerance that ordinary people could not bear. Those who are brave but lack strategy will be insulted and will certainly draw their swords and fight bravely, but this is not enough to be called a hero. The truly heroic figures in the world will not be surprised when they encounter unexpected situations, and when they are unjustly insulted by others, they will not become angry. This is because they have great ambitions and lofty aspirations.
This is the greatest hero in the world.
Then, the whole essay goes on with what is called "bravery".
What's even more surprising is that this article, from start to finish, uses a literary writing style.
If others saw it, they would definitely think that this was a passage from an ancient book. However, judging by Fang Ruo Han's knowledge, she had never seen such classic phrases before. No mistake, this absolutely wasn't copied from anywhere. If it were copied, even if it were just one sentence from the beginning of the composition, Fang Ruo Han would have known about it.
After all, famous sayings can be passed down for thousands of years.
What is considered a bold opening in the first paragraph, in Fang Ruo Han's eyes, is a classic that can't be more classic.
In this case, it is impossible for him not to spread out, but Fang Ruohan now is seeing him for the first time.
Throughout the whole thing, Fang Ruohan was so excited she almost jumped up and shouted "Bravo!"
The entire article is written with a bold and unbridled spirit that resonates endlessly.
After reading this article, you will know what courage is and who are the greatest heroes in the world.
Kept thinking about this sentence in mind.
Such an essay was actually written by Zhou Fan, which really shocked Fang Ruohan.
At this level, let alone Fang Ruohan, even Fang Ruohan's mentor in those years could not reach it.
Staring blankly at the composition in front of her, Fang Ruo Han didn't know how to write a comment.
Can you write?
At my own level, I really can't evaluate this article.
This was already beyond Fang Ruo Han's ability, she didn't even dare to write half a word.
Then Fang Ruo Han took another look at this composition and closed her notebook without writing a single comment.
"Zhou Fan."
What kind of person are you?
It's only been a few days since Fang Ruo Han arrived at Tianhua No. 2 Middle School, and she has already been informed of the situation in Class 7 by the head teacher. As for Zhou Fan, Zhang Mei's evaluation is that he is a little rascal, telling Fang Ruo Han not to pay attention to him in class, no matter what he does. But now, looking at it, someone who can write such an article, how can he be just a simple little rascal?
Could it be that he has always been like what is written in this article, pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger?
A truly brave person is one who can endure what ordinary people cannot endure and tolerate what ordinary people cannot tolerate.
The person in front of me might be him.
"Zhou Fan, stop reading other books, it's time for Teacher Fang's class."
Chen Su poked Zhou Fan and reminded him.
"Oh, okay."
As for Fang Ruo Han, Zhou Fan was still interested. He wanted to hear how this beautiful teacher taught her classes, if she was like others who made lectures sound like lullabies. In that case, he would rather read books himself.
"Fellow students, we meet again."
With her usual smile, Fang Ruohan stepped onto the stage.
"Yesterday we arranged our composition, today I will spend some time explaining it."
Fang Ruo Han looked at the students below the stage and said, "Everyone's compositions, I've all read them. Generally speaking, they're not bad. Everyone has expressed their own emotions and written out what they wanted to express. Of course, if those few classmates hadn't made a mess of confessing, I think it would have been even better. However, here I want to especially praise one person. This person's name is Zhou Fan..."
"Zhou Fan?"
No way.
When classmates in the class heard Fang Ruo Han publicly praising Zhou Fan, they all gaped in shock, unable to believe it.
How could it be? Why did the beautiful teacher praise Zhou Fan?
Yes, it's strange.
Didn't the beautiful teacher say a few words to Zhou Fan yesterday?
Although Fang Ruo Han spoke in a very low voice with Zhou Fan yesterday, many classmates did not hear it. However, some classmates on the side still heard it. As a result, within just one day, all the classmates knew about it. They thought to themselves that this Zhou Fan was really hopeless. Not only did other teachers dislike him, but even the newly arrived beautiful teacher had also been offended by him. But unexpectedly, just one day later, the beautiful teacher actually publicly praised Zhou Fan.
This is truly unbelievable.
"En, I hope Zhou Fan will be able to show his true heroic spirit as he wrote in the future. Alright, let's start class formally."
Fang Ruo Han slightly nodded in approval at Zhou Fan and then began class.
Of course, for Fang Ruo Han's praise, Zhou Fan also had some surprises.
"Hey, Zhou Fan, what did you write in your composition? Even Teacher Fang praised you?"
Chen Su's face was full of surprise, and she asked Zhou Fan.
"This one, actually didn't write anything, just copied an article."
"No way..."
However, Zhou Fanke did not continue the conversation. In his heart, he had some regrets. Yesterday, for some reason, his literary youth ideology was severe, and he wrote a long article about what it means to be brave. If only he knew, he shouldn't have shown off like that.
Alright, today's lesson ends here, classmates, dismissal.
After finishing one lesson, Fang Ruo Han left the classroom.
"Teacher Zhang, what do you think of Zhou Fan?"
Class 7's head teacher Zhang Mei has arrived at the office, Fang Ruo Han asked.
"Teacher Fang, didn't I tell you about the situation with Class 7 yesterday? Zhou Fan's family conditions are very average, and he doesn't study well. He often goes to fight, and recently who knows what got into him, he actually came to class. However, even in class, he doesn't behave. He often reads some messy books and dreams of becoming an artist. I say, Teacher Fang, it's best if you don't bother with this kind of student. If you provoke him, you'll end up with a bunch of trouble."
Zhang Mei spoke recklessly and refuted everything Zhou Fan said.
"Oh, I see. However, Teacher Zhang, I think Zhou Fan is actually quite clever. He just doesn't want to show it. Yesterday, I assigned an essay and Zhou Fan's was pretty good. Here, this is his essay."
"What is bravery?"
After several minutes, Zhang Mei finished reading it all.
Have to say, this article is indeed written with great momentum, making people applaud.
However, Zhang Mei couldn't believe that this was written by Zhou Fan.
"So, Teacher Fang, this is Zhou Fan's work, right? Look, the whole article is written in classical Chinese. Can a high school student really write something like this?"
"This..."
Fang Ruo Han originally wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, she decided not to. Suddenly, she had an idea and said, "Teacher Zhang, I don't know if he cheated or not. But we can try something small to test him. Maybe Zhou Fan isn't what we thought he was. Or maybe he's changed recently?"
At first as a teacher, Fang Ruo Han still adhered to the principle of teaching and educating people.
He didn't want to see his students go bad, nor did he want to see a talented person buried.
"Okay, next lesson is mine, I'll try him out."
Zhang Mei nodded and decided to test Zhou Fan's depth a while later.
