这是我最喜欢的一本书《平凡的世界》里我最喜欢的一句话：“谁让你读了这么多书，又知道了双水村以外还有个大世界……如果从小你就在这个天地里日出而作，日落而息，那你现在就会和众乡亲抱同一理想：经过几年的辛劳，像大哥一样娶个满意的媳妇，生个胖儿子，加上你的体魄，会成为一名出色的庄稼人。不幸的是，你知道的太多了，思考的太多了，因此才有了这种不能为周围人所理解的苦恼。”

王老师的中文班来了个留学生，他对中国的汉字非常感兴趣。这天，他上街回来找到王老师，不解的说：“王老师，你们中国人太不谦虚了。”
　　“为什么这么说？”王老师感到惊讶。“因为我看街上有很多大招牌，都是自我炫耀。比如：中国很行，中国人民很行，中国农业很行，中国建设很行，中国工商很行。”
　　王老师听了才知道他把“银”看成“很”了。
An foreign student came to Mr. Wang's Chinese class. He was very interested in Chinese characters. One day, he came back from the street to find Mr. Wang and said incomprehensibly, "Mr. Wang, you Chinese are too modest."

"Why do you say that?" Mr. Wang was surprised. "The big reason is that I see many big signs on the street, all of which are self display. For example, China is very good, the Chinese people are very good, China's agriculture is very good, China's construction is very good, and China's industry and commerce are very good."
After listening, Mr. Wang realized that he regarded "silver" as "very".
