我想是培養自信心,自己相信自己做得到。(I can do.)(Like the president of the United States of Amercia)
分數是其次。
還有是解決問題能力。(I can solve it.)
最後是堅持(意志)。
[size=150%] 29.7.2009[size=150%]明報專訊】除了模當道,泳壇亦由一名15歲少女搶盡風頭。瑞典的夏絲唐於世界游泳錦標賽女子100米蝶泳,先在準決賽打破塵封9年的世界紀錄一鳴驚人,再於決賽以56.06秒的新世績奪冠。13歲時幾乎放棄泳手生涯的夏絲唐,賽後表示難以置信。
下月才滿16歲的夏絲唐在準決賽以56.44秒超越荷蘭名將迪布恩的56.61秒舊績後,周一的決賽更進一步,把時間推前多達0.38秒。夏絲唐說﹕「能夠打破世界紀錄和成為世界冠軍,我真不敢相信。我實在太開心了,相信要過數天才可以冷靜下來。今年是我游泳生涯至今最美好的一年,我有信心未來還有很多美好的日子,可以繼續進步,做得更好。」

13歲無進步想放棄
夏絲唐透露,自小接受刻板和艱苦的訓練,可是水平一直停滯不前,令她感到非常苦惱和沉悶,所以13歲那年很有衝動就此放棄,不再做專業泳手。她續稱﹕「幸好我堅持下去,成績亦開始突飛猛進,贏得不少國內錦標,令我重拾游泳的樂趣,於是我便決心繼續。」她的努力沒有白費,去年以14歲之齡在荷蘭舉行的歐洲游泳錦標賽嶄露頭角,勇奪女子100米蝶泳冠軍。雖然北京奧運表現失準,100米蝶泳和100米背泳分別只位列第27和29名,但她沒有氣餒,結果在今屆世界賽吐氣揚眉。
不過夏絲唐這次所穿著的戰衣,是明年開始禁用的高科技聚氨酯浮力泳衣,令她的驚人佳績引起泳壇部分人士非議,亦使她將來於各項大賽爭霸的前途添上不明朗因素。
至於屈居夏絲唐之後摘下銀牌的澳洲泳手舒希柏,對於游出個人最快時間感到滿意。17歲的「中國金花」焦劉洋則贏得銅牌,這名京奧200米蝶泳亞軍興奮地說﹕「56.86秒的成績跟我們的預期差不多,證明早前的高原訓練很有效,總算彌補了上屆世界賽空手而回的遺憾。羅馬市(比賽城市)為我帶來了驚喜。」
夏絲唐對自己有自信心,解決自己游得慢的問題,最後是堅持下去,她成功了。
我幫孩子dictation and revision, 他得100分。
他自己溫習, 得30分。
他其實有很多進步空間,我幫他找合適的溫習方法,使他明白到自己做得到,對自己有信心,自己去做,繼續堅持,一定成功。
My son has ADHD and asperger problems. With the above elements, he can stand satisfactory academic results and satisfactory conduct in the traditional private school.
In fact, I have a daughter who studied in the same DSS/Shatin. So I know this DSS/Shatin very much.
Very, very, very disappointed, disappointed......
When my son studied in P.3, she followed to study in P.1. Because of the conflict between the school and my son (poor conduct), they go to study in the present traditional primary school. My daughter failed in English, Chinese, Mathematics and General Studies in the assessments before the first term examination. I was much worried at that time and phoned to the classteacher for advice. She replied that my daughter had to study harder than before. Of course, the teachers did their parts at school.
I train her to be a confident girl and encourage her to do her best. She improves bit by bit. Finally, she gets A in Mathematics, B in both Chinese and English in the last term of P.2. Furthermore, she got A in conduct. I am very surprised and excited. |
