High school has been a year, I have been to two classes in a year, and I am barely able to stay in this class, the teachers in this class are very very good, they are all senior and excellent classrooms, especially the Chinese teacher, the class teacher said that Mr. Xu also took him, she is the best teacher in the school. This year, Teacher Xu is 55 years old, the state stipulates that teachers will retire at the age of 55 or 60, Teacher Xu has submitted retirement applications without all of us, just two days after the exam, we did not see her in the Language Class.
The news of her retirement was still known from the class teacher, the news was too sudden, many of us could not accept it, that afternoon we prepared a thousand paper cranes to give to Teacher Xu, to the evening self-study has been almost stacked, each group with a thread to wear up, and finally put on the bookcase in front of the classroom. The first night self-study is mathematics, the relationship between the math teacher and Teacher Xu is very good, she came in and saw a thousand paper cranes, knowing that this is for Teacher Xu, she took a photo and said that she would not send it to Teacher Xu.
It may be that she saw a thousand paper cranes and thought of Teacher Xu who had left, and she felt inspired. When people reach middle age and have been teaching for most of their lives, she said that Teacher Xu always felt that she did not live for herself, what she said was not tested, and she could not speak for her classmates if she thought anything, she felt that she was harming her classmates. On the first day of the final exam, she knew that her father was going to be hospitalized for transfer procedures, and a few days ago she said hello, but the form came out and found that the invigilator teacher lined up with her, she was helpless, she sent a teacher who wanted to proctor the exam, something could not go away, but no teacher went to respond to her, but now two classmates who have gone to college, rushed back to eat a meal with the math teacher on the same day, and actively helped her, invigilation, the principal inspected, found that the math teacher was not there, she explained to the principal that she forgot to say hello in a hurry, People are really helpless.
Math teachers said that at their age, there are old and young, really under too much pressure, pressure from the family, pressure from the school, pressure from classmates, even the grades down, but also to bear the pressure of grades, so she is very envious of Teacher Xu, she said she hopes that time will pass a little faster, so that she can also retire. This has also caused us to think a lot, people do not live long, but half of the time is doing what they do not want to do, which is not a kind of crying.
The last self-study that night was chemistry, and on the day after the final exam, the grades came out, and the chemistry teacher put the grades on the big screen, and we all rushed to see it. The door was pushed open, and Teacher Xu, dressed in classical clothes, came in with the math teacher in, she was still so elegant, so energetic, we all applauded, the math teacher jokingly said five minutes, just five minutes. Teacher Xu said that she did not want to come, but the classmates have always let her come, sent a lot of messages, she directly retired without giving the classmates an explanation, she was embarrassed to see us, but we did not see her last side is also very sorry ah. She said that retirement at 55 and retirement at 60 are not the same, 60 years old she wants to keep a good reputation, do not want her last impression is old age, may be a little selfish, but she still has her own life, people can not live long, in the last days, she wants to live for herself.
Each of our classmates cried, and even choked up, she shook the hand of each of us, and together with the math teacher, she took away our stacked thousand paper cranes, and the math teacher said, go quickly, or you really can't go. She still persistently held everyone, although she only took me for one semester, but brought me a lot, very much, very grateful to her. After they left, the chemistry teacher comforted us, don't be sad, they are very gentle, they are all teachers I admire and admire.
Teacher Xu said that she was sorry for us, said that she would take us this class, but she reneged on her word, but I don't think she is sorry for us, she should think for herself, teachers are candles to light themselves to illuminate others, who stipulates that it must be like this, who stipulates that teachers must dedicate their lives to it.
People are not easy, time is very short, Teacher Xu is just one of our journeys, always have to pass, we will also meet more people and things, but also to try to do a good job.
