中师的同学们,未来的同行们:屈指算来,我从事小学教育工作已有半个多世纪了。不少同学(包括青年教师)问我:“你为什么总是当小学教师呢?”“也许是没有机会改做其他工作吧!”不,在我几十年的生涯中,多次出现过可以不做小学教师这一行的机会:我可以请有社会地位的亲朋好友找一个挣钱多而工作轻松的职业,我可以依靠我的大学毕业当工程师的丈夫过清闲生活,我可以在抗战的大后方偏安 Middle school students, future colleagues: I have been engaged in elementary school education for more than half a century. Many students (including young teachers) asked me: “Why do you always be a primary school teacher?” “Perhaps there is no opportunity to change to other jobs!” No, I have seen many times in my career. Don’t be an elementary school teacher’s opportunity: I can ask friends and relatives with social status to find a job that makes me earn more money and work lighter. I can rely on my husband who graduated from college as an engineer to live in a free life. I can play in the war of resistance. Rear-biased safety
