This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

大学教育的作用究竟有多大
其实,我们既不必夸大大学教育的作用,也无法否认它的帮助,“大学的功能只是我们的一个助推器。”***说,“因为教学进程是一步步向前的,它可以推着你往前走,在一定程度上至少能克服人的惰性。”
不要被大学渲染的短暂的热情迷惑,同时,如果上了几个大学、研究生院神马的,自己的水平没提高很多,也不要自卑,认为是自己不行,没有天赋。任何知识的学习都一样,是一个长期的过程,需要持久的热情与努力。

In Greek mythology, Lethe, is "a river in Hades whose water when drunk made the souls of the dead forget their life on earth".
It corresponds to (冥界的)"忘川" in Chinese.
*Note: The word "Hades" in the first paragraph above means "the underworld; the abode of the spirits of the dead". And it corresponds to "冥界" in Chinese.

Not capitalized are the English words denoting subject matters (or branches of study, to put it another way), such as economics, mathematics, and sociology.
However, on the other hand, capitalized are the words denoting human and computer languages, such as Latin, Italian, Greek, and Perl.
And I don't know why.
And I don't know why.
Well, maybe many university graduates in Canada and China leave their alma mater for the real world with insufficiently trained critical thinking skills.
And, boy, they leave for the working world, intentions awry.
