There is classic story about a fishman and his wife. The fishman caught a golden fish and the fish asked the fishman to let it go for giving the fishman wish. The fishman’s wife asked his husband to get more, at last, the golden fish was angry and made the fishman back to the original situation. The story tells us that satisfaction brings happiness. When people are greed, then they will never feel happy, because there is always something they lack of. A happy man will cherish what he has and is grateful to life. The simpler life we live, the happier we will feel. If the fishman’s wife gets satisfied for the first wish, then they will live the good life.

有一个经典的故事是关于渔夫和她的妻子。渔夫抓到了一条金鱼，这条鱼请求渔夫放它走，因为它能满足他的愿望。渔夫的妻子要求丈夫得到更多，最后，金鱼生气了，使得渔夫回到了原来的状态。这个故事告诉我们满足才能带来快乐。当人们贪心，就永远都不会开心，因为总有他们缺少的东西。一个快乐的人会珍惜自己所拥有的，对生活也感激。过着越简单的生活，我们就会越开心。如果渔夫的妻子满足于第一个愿望，那么他们就可以过上好日子了。

快乐是什么？怎样才能快乐？在成人的眼中，这是一个很复杂的问题，那么在小孩子的眼中快乐是什么呢？快乐也许很简单，也许是吃完饭后大大地打一个嗝，也许是和小狗一起跑步，也许是得到老师的一个赞赏的眼神……那么在小学英教学中，怎样进行快乐的教学呢，我有一些自己的想法和建议。

快乐教学还有另一个名字叫“愉快教育”，即能充分调动学生的学习积极性，使教育融合于教学中，融合于全部课外活动中，既提高了学生的知识技能，又发展了他们的个体，真正体现“教师为主导，学生为主体”的双边性，使学生动、活泼，学生身心愉悦的教学。

其实，很早的时候就有中外大思想家和教育家提到快乐教育。如《论语》开篇就载有孔子对愉快教学的认识“学而时习之，不亦乐乎？”孔子这时已经认识到学习者的兴趣和爱好对学习效果有着不同程度的影响，并将“乐学”作为治学的最高境界“知之者不如好之者，好之者不如乐之者”。苏格拉底开创的愉快教学思想，被他的学生亚里斯多德和古罗马教育家昆体良所继承和发扬。由此，我感觉到已初步涉及到尊重儿童，因材施教，教育目的，师生关系等方面，也许这就是愉快教学思想初露端倪。

其次，为了更好地进行快乐教学，应该建立良好的师生关系。快乐教学，简单地说就是寓教于乐，让学生愉快地接受知识。它始终注意发挥以愉快为核心的各种情感的积极作用，运用各种教学手段创设愉快的教学情境，让学生在愉快的情境中最大限度地表现出各自的认知需要，并主动积极地开展生动活泼的学习活动，达到良好的学习效果。让学生乐于学习，在愉快轻松的氛围中掌握知识，获得教育。良好的师生关系则是教育教学的润滑剂，因此良好的师生关系便成为愉快教学成功实施的重要基础。我认为可以从以下几方面做起：

一是以爱为本，真正尊重、信任学生。都说没有爱就没有教育，爱是教育的灵魂，愉快教学也是充满爱的教学。要建立良好的师生关系，教师必须树立“以爱为本”的观念，真正关心爱护每一个学生，做学生的良师益友，善于与学生沟通。教师对学生倾注爱，必然会唤起学生对老师的爱，师生之间形成良好的心理氛围。“亲其师，信其道”就是这个道理。二是改革传统的教学手段与方法。我们要帮助学生不断获得学习上的成功，从而建立“成功――快乐――兴趣浓厚”的良性循环机制，形成自觉自主的学习机制，实现从“要我学”向“我要学”的转变。运用多种教学手段和方法，创设民主、平等、愉快、和谐的课堂氛围，最大限度地为学生提供各抒己见的机会，也在客观上促进了师生之间愉快的交流与沟通。

小学英语课堂教学就是要尽最大限度地引起学生的学习兴趣，为学生提供足够的机会用英语进行活动，让学生感受到运用所学语言成功地达到某种目的后的愉快。这是小学生的年龄特点和英语学科的特殊性所决定的。要使小学生能够在40分钟的时间内保持良好的学习状态，教师必须根据不同的教学内容创设各种情景，做到教学情景化。其实，我们可以做的还有很多，比如，运用现代化多媒体手段、教唱英语歌、游戏情境设计等等。我相信，只要我们坚持为了一切学生，为了学生的一切，再加上关心爱护每一个学生，并运用运用各种各样的现代化教学手段，我们一定可以让我们的孩子们发自内心地大声喊：我学英语，我快乐！

You’ll soon be 84 years old,Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father’s Days together. I haven’t always been with you on Father’s Day nor have I been with you for all of your birthdays. It wasn’t because I didn’t want to be with you. I’ve always been with you in my heart but sometimes life gets in the way.

今天我在商场的时候, 我读了好长时间的有关“父亲节”的贺卡。那些卡片上面的文字很特别，也或多或少地表达出了我对您的感受。我挑选读过一次后，又挑选读了一遍，但那并不是一张贺卡所能表达出我想对您说的话的。爸爸，很快您就要84岁了，您和我也将度过这第55个“父亲节”。“父亲节”的那天，我总是不能和您在一起，连您过生日的时候我也是这样，但这并不是因为我不想陪在您身边。其实，在我心里，我总是和您在一起。不过，有的时候，生活也会有差错。

You know, Dad, there was a time when we were not only separated by the generation gap but completely polarized by it. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other, father and daughter split apart by age and experience, opinions, hairstyles, cosmetics, clothing, curfews, music, and boys.

The Father-Daughter Duel of ’54 shifted into high gear when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the ‘54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who escorted me home after you reported the Chevy stolen late one evening was too young to understand father-daughter politics and too old to have much tolerance for a snotty 16 year old. You were so decent about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.Our relationship improved immensely when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we begin making babies right and left. We didn’t have a television set, you know, and we had to entertain ourselves somehow. I didn’t know what to expect of you and Mom as grandparents but I didn’t have to wait long to find out. Those babies adored you then just as they adore you now. When I see you with all your grandchildren, I know you’ve given them the finest gift a grandparent can give. You’ve given them yourself.

爸爸，您也知道，我们父女俩曾有一段时间因为代沟不在一起过，比如年龄、个人阅历、观点、发型、化妆、服装、音乐、作息时间以及男朋友，因为

这些，我们的观点也非常对立。您站在“大分离”的一端，我站在“大分离”的另一端。

那时，您教我学开那部道奇旧车，可我却不管您喜欢不喜欢执意要开雪拂兰’54那辆车。当时，我们父女俩关于雪拂兰汽车的争执也调到了最高挡。可那天晚上，您却报警说雪拂兰车被盗。之后，一个警官把我护送到家，可他太年轻了，根本不明白我们父女俩之间的政治斗争，可他也不小了，对一个16岁的流鼻涕的小孩却没有太多的耐心。爸爸，您倒对这件事处理得很体面，而我想那可能是我一生中最糟糕的一个夜晚吧。

在我嫁了一个您喜欢的女婿后，我们俩之间的关系才缓和了好多。后来，我们为了好好地生个孩子，就离开了，我们之间的那些事情也就结束了。这事您也知道，我们没有电视机看，我们就只好自娱自乐了。我不知道我还能对作为外公外婆的您和妈妈抱什么期望，但是，不要等到很久我就会找到答案。过去那些孩子热爱您，现在他们还像以前那样热爱您。当我看见您和您的外孙在一起的时候，我知道您都已经给了他们最好的礼物，您把心都掏给他们了。Somewhere along the line, the generation gap evaporated. Age separates us now and little else. We agree on most everything,

perhaps because we’ve learned there isn’t much worth disagreeing about. However, I would like to mention that fly fishing isn’t all you’ve cracked it up to be, Dad. You can say what you want about wrist action and stance and blah, blah, blah...

I’ve been happily drifting for a lot of years, Dad, and I didn’t see you getting older.

I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine. Numbers never seemed important. But the oddest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn’t immediately occur to me

that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day. Or maybe I saw my own.

就是这样，您我之间的代沟慢慢消失了。现在年龄和其它一些问题的差异把您和我分开，可我们在很多事情的上的看法都是一样的，这可能是因为我们明白了没有那么多的事情值得我们争辩吧。然而，我想提示一下的是，爸爸，飞蝇钓鱼是您最喜欢的一种钓法，您可以说些您想做的手腕动作，站姿和一些没有用的话什么的。

爸爸，虽然我已经漂泊很多年了，但是我很快乐。然而，我却发现您没有变老，还是那么年轻。

随着年龄的增长，我认和我之间的关系慢慢地融洽了好多，就像是一瓶好酒，越陈越香。家人看起来好像没有一点意义似的，但是，上周发生了一件最奇怪的事情，我站在停车标志旁，看见您开着车要拐弯。可是我并没有立刻反映到那是爸爸您。因为那个人开着车，又在那部大车的车轮后面，就显得他岁数很大，身体也很虚弱的样子。可我却感到不知道从哪里飞来的一记耳光似的重重地打在我的脸上，也许，那是我第一次“看见”您的年龄，也许，只有我自己看见罢了。

Fifty years ago this spring we planted kohlrabi together in a garden in Charles City, Iowa.

I didn’t know then that I would remember that day for the rest of my life. This week, we’ll plant kohlrabi together again, perhaps for the last time but I hope not. I don’t understand why planting kohlrabi with you is so important to me but it is. And the funny thing about it is, well, I don’t know quite how to tell you this, Dad...I don’t even like kohlrabi...but I like planting it with you.I guess what I’m trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a Father on Father’s Day is about more than a Dad who brings home a paycheck, shares a dinner table, and attends school functions, graduations, and weddings. It isn’t even so much about kohlrabi, ’54 Chevrolets, and fly-fishing. It’s more about unconditionally loving children who are snotty and stubborn, who know everything and won’t listen to anyone. It’s about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and

giving and taking. It’s about loving someone more than words can say，and it’s wishing that it never had to end.

I love you, Dad.

五十年前的一个春天，我们在依阿华州查理斯市的一个花园一起栽下苤蓝菜。

当时我也不知道我以后会怀念那一天。这一周，我们还要在一起栽苤蓝菜，这是第二次。也许，这是最后一次，可我并不希望那样。我不明白为什么我和您一起栽苤蓝菜我会感到很有意义，可事实上就有意义。而且，关于这个，有个有意思的事情，可我不知道该怎么和您说这事，爸爸?? 我不喜欢苤蓝菜??但是，我却喜欢和您一起栽苤蓝菜。

爸爸，我想我想要说的话是每个作儿女的今天想和他们爸爸要说的话。过“父亲节”，给父亲这么一个大的荣誉，决不是因为爸爸给家里挣多少钱，和家人一起共进晚餐，参加学校活动，参加毕业典礼和婚礼的原因，也不止是一起栽苤蓝菜，开雪拂兰’54车和飞蝇钓鱼的事，也不止是您毫无理由地爱那些流鼻涕又很淘气，而且什么都懂，就是不听话的小孩。这就是尊重对方，分享

快乐，认同和忍受他人，给予和接受吧，您对别人的爱也是不能用言语来表达的，希望这些永不终止。
