Dad has been a little strange recently.
When I watch his favorite program with my mother, he always disappears. I noticed that only the closed door of the study showed a little light through the gap. I always can't hold back my curiosity and creep to understand. First, the sound of reading English came from the study-not pleasant to hear, and the bad pronunciation was honed in the ears like sand. I opened the door and looked at it-"Bang!" -wearing headphones dad hurriedly turned on the computer, quite a bit "shattered glass" flavor. "Don't laugh, I'm learning English recently." Dad is like a guilty child who did something wrong. "Dad, you are so energetic!" I gave a cry!
I can't help looking around. There is a notebook on the table, with slightly worn corners but neat handwriting, woven into a net, which shows the diligence and seriousness of the owner. Touching my father's hard work, I can't help but admire: "You are so energetic! Dad, how do you want to learn English? "
"I also made up my mind recently. Although I am old, studying is still my right, isn't it? Moreover, I will take your mother and daughter around the world in the future! " Dad smiled, the original shy expression disappeared, replaced by the light in his eyes. Last time our family went abroad, there was no mother who was proficient in foreign languages, and my father in a foreign country even relied on me as a child! What stands in front of us is this man in his forties. In addition to the responsibility of the head of the family, he may include more than that. "Ok, I support you!" I held my father's hand tightly and made the firmest promise.
Dad began to study against the clock. When cooking, accompanied by the sound of cooking smoke and cooking, it was my father who read aloud. When serving food, you should also report the names of the dishes in English, such as "caramel potatoes, stir-fried cabbage with vegetarian dishes, fans, fans …" and "tomatoes". I quickly remind you. "oh! Tomatoes with eggs! " Everyone laughed when dad patted his head. He often gets up early to study in a small park, reading enthusiastically, gently and gently ... I admire him for pursuing his ideals in a unique way, regardless of other people's eyes. Gradually, the rustic English that pronounced "pen" as "basin" was replaced by clear pronunciation. This progress is really worth learning with an open mind.
I can feel that my father who studies English hard is getting younger and more energetic. His self-confidence, his seriousness, and even played down the traces of time, let him become my peers and walk through the glorious years of struggle together.
"It's never too old to learn." Being old and persevering is the most precious lesson my father taught me. I know that I will practice the concept of lifelong learning, and when I am old, I am still willing to touch the yellowed pages and recall my original dreams when I was young.
Studying with dad is the most exciting thing.
