每年3月5日是周恩来总理诞辰纪念日。周总理一生为国为民鞠躬尽瘁;他虽然日理万机,但一直牵挂我国的文化教育事业。本文即为北京大学王逢鑫教授根据自己的亲身经历写的一篇对周总理的英文回忆。1970年11月7日夜间,王逢鑫老师与北大其他师生代表一起来到中南海,受到周总理的亲切接见,王老师非常详细地记述了与总理见面的点点滴滴。周总理本人精通多门外语,当晚他面对面与师生代表交流如何学习外语以及如何改善高校外语教学方法等,令在座师生收获满满,深受鼓舞。周总理对外语学习的指导现在读来仍不过时,相信广大读者读后亦能受益匪浅;这是本刊刊发本文的目的,亦希望借此纪念周总理。 March 5 each year is the birthday of Premier Zhou Enlai.
