My relationship with the University of International w88“Half-life fate”

I am in1962Admitted to Beijing Foreign w88 casino, due to the Cultural Revolution1968Graduated in 2016, six years in total;19829592_96091982The year is coming2010The year is28Years, the total is34Year, this year I66years old, almost half my life——This is my half-life relationship with the University of International w88 and Economics.Another "fate" is our family's fate with the University of International w88 and Economics: my son and daughter-in-law graduated from the University of Economics and Business, and many of our relatives are also alumni of the University of International w88 and Economics. Therefore, I, and even our family, are closely related to the University of International w88 and Economics.

I am a student in the Russian class of the Department of Foreign w88. Because of the changes in Sino-Soviet relations, we then8There is only one class in each class learning Russian, and only those who actively sign up to learn Russian4Personally, I am one of them. My learning of Russian was also influenced by my father, who is from NorthernNormal UniversityProfessor. He felt that since I had a three-year foundation of learning Russian, I shouldn’t give up halfway, so I took the initiative to enroll in a Russian class. The previous students were basically transferred cadre students (already working and studying as cadres), and very few were admitted directly from high w88 casino. Starting from our current class, students were admitted from high w88 casino graduates, and I was one of them. At that time, the w88 casino had only two departments, one was the Department of Foreign w88 and the other was the Department of Foreign Languages, and there were only minor languages8, the Department of Foreign w88 has a Russian class, and I am in the Russian class of the Department of Foreign w88. The dean at the time, Li Qiuye, was very reform-minded. He believed that foreign language teaching should focus on listening and speaking, which was different from the teaching concept that focused on reading and writing skills at that time. Therefore, although we were in the period of the Cultural Revolution and only studied formally for two years, the foundation was laid very well in these two years. Later, I was able to go to Russia to study and become a diplomat, which had a lot to do with the good foundation during this period.

After the second grade, we started to “do the four clean-ups”. This is a rather special period. I went to Chang'an County, Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. For a whole year, I ate, lived and worked with the farmers. I worked during the day and visited the poor farmers' homes at night to ask about their hardships. It was very difficult at that time, and it was also very training. We really understood what China's rural bottom class was like. Although there was no cultural study this year, it would have a great impact on me in the future. I was in third grade when I came back from the countryside. Less than a year into fourth grade, the Cultural Revolution began. At that time, I was very confused about the meaning of the Cultural Revolution. Our family belongs to a family of old intellectuals and was greatly affected by the Cultural Revolution. Although I am so healthy and optimistic now, to be honest, anyone who knows me knows that it is not easy for me to get to where I am today, but that is a problem of the times, and we should not live with resentment. Because of my experience in going to the bottom during the Cultural Revolution, I later paid special attention to ordinary people at the bottom, whether at home or abroad, with or without a position, because I felt that it was particularly difficult for everyone. The ultra-leftist ideological trend of the Cultural Revolution and the unrealistic trend caused harm to people that people today cannot imagine. At that time, I was the study committee member of our class and also joined the Communist Youth League. I was a student trained by the "reactionary line" called teachers during the Cultural Revolution. Although I did not have any reactionary behavior, I was still greatly affected when we were assigned.65all assigned to Beijing City; to6611471_11536

Those days in Inner Mongolia

All our students who have left w88 casino, all went to the army farm to exercise. At that time, Chairman Mao taught us to be workers, peasants and soldiers. We went to Datong, Shanxi Province, where we planted corn during the day and fought against private sector and criticized repairs at night. After two years in the army, I arrived in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia. Because I was very unhappy at the time, bidding farewell to Beijing, and not knowing what my future would be like, so I left relatively late, but it was precisely because of my lateness that it saved me. Basically all the students who went before me joined the production team. I went relatively late, so I stayed in the city where the capital of the League (prefecture-level unit in Inner Mongolia) was located. Because I majored in foreign w88, when I was assigned a job, I wanted to be assigned to a foreign w88 company. But at that time, the foreign w88 company only purchased potatoes and furs, and only organized the supply of goods. It did not export itself, so I was assigned to the coal construction company. In the coal construction company, I was assigned to be a cashier. I was the first college student assigned to the coal construction company in our league. I sold coal during the day, and they weighed the coal. I issued invoices and collected the money. Then I rode my bike, dragging the sacks containing the money, to the bank. I stayed there for three years and quickly became well-known in Chifeng City. Three years later, I went to Chifeng No. 5 Middle w88 casino, where I stayed for seven years and taught Russian for two years. I taught Russian very well. However, because of the Cultural Revolution, no one learned Russian. In the next five years, it became RussianTextTeacher, from first grade to fifth grade. They were very willing to take my class, and I still have contact with the students in Chifeng. I went to see them a few years ago. There were about fifty people in the class, and more than thirty people came to the station that day. At that time, I felt that students should still be encouraged to study hard, as it will always be useful in the future.

The road to development under the care of the alma mater

Ten years have passed, the Cultural Revolution has ended, and the college entrance examination has resumed, so I seized this opportunity. I asked about the postgraduate majors at my alma mater, and the answer I got was that they only majored in Russian literature. I was studying business, and there was still a big gap between me and literature. After further inquiry, I found that Renmin University of China had a major in Soviet and Eastern European economics. Because my father had not yet taken off his right-wing label, I avoided Russia and chose Yugoslav politics and economics. A total of more than two hundred students in the Chifeng area took the exam, and four passed the exam. Among them, there was only one girl—me. We have a total of recruitment for that major20, but only those that meet the conditions12There was only one girl, and I took the first place. They said they didn’t want to recruit me because I was already thirty-four years old when I took the postgraduate entrance examination. I had a family in Inner Mongolia and two children. Therefore, recruiting me would not only solve my household registration problem, but also our whole family’s household registration problem. But becauseMy results are correctVery good, they admitted me. During this period, my alma mater did a big thing for me. Because I was a "child who could be educated well" during the Cultural Revolution, there were some abnormal comments in the file. If I wanted to take the postgraduate entrance examination, I had to correct these comments. Because my father's corrections had been approved at that time, I wrote to the w88 casino. The organization department of w88 casino was very responsible and extracted the files with false information, so that I could successfully enter the Renmin University of China. Thanks to the strong assistance of my alma mater, I successfully completed three years of postgraduate study without any psychological burden. Since I studied Yugoslav politics and economics when I was in graduate w88 casino, I also learned Croatian(Official language of Yugoslavia)。

After graduation, I encountered a distribution problem. It was difficult because I had to solve the problem of my spouse. At this time, I contacted my alma mater. Because I did very well in my grade during college, and with the recommendation of the graduate w88 casino and the Department of Foreign w88, I finally returned to my alma mater, the Department of Foreign w88, and became a teacher.

The Cultural Revolution indeed brought about great changes in our destiny. Because of this, all our classmates were separated, and we still can’t get in touch with each other to this day. There are only a few students I can contact who actually work in foreign w88, and one of them is doingw88 with Russia, one is developed in Lianyungang, the restThose engaged in foreign w88 related workNot much. For me, it was knowledge that changed my destiny. If it were not for knowledge, I would not have returned to the University of International w88, my children would not have entered this w88 casino, and my lover would not have returned to Beijing. Everything we have today was brought about by that exam paper. That exam paper decided the fate of our family. Otherwise, we should still be in Inner Mongolia and Chifeng. When I returned to Beijing, I had absolutely nothing to do with my parents, and I had no personal connections in Beijing at the time. So I also want to tell you that you must seize the opportunity and study hard in college. No matter where you go in the future, grades are the last word.

After returning to the University of International w88 and Economics, studying at the Renmin University of China gave me a solid foundation in terms of teaching. At that time, we not only studied Marx's Capital, but also Gao Hongye's Western Economics. These laid a better foundation for my future teaching at the University of Economics and Business, and made up for all the knowledge that was delayed during the Cultural Revolution. Teaching at the w88 casino also faced the problem of major selection. Due to the reason of learning Russian, I chose "Introduction to China's Foreign w88", which has few language restrictions. After all, I am not an English student. If I choose other courses, there are still some obstacles in reading English materials and literature. Later, my teaching at the w88 casino of Economics and w88 went very smoothly. From returning to w88 casino, to becoming a lecturer, and later to associate professor and full professor, I used13, this period also included a year of suspension of professional title evaluation, including a year when I went to the Soviet Union for further study, and a year when I went to work at the Yugoslav Embassy, so in a real sense I used it10year timeCompleted the journey from returning to the University of International w88 to becoming a full professor at the University.I feel that as a lesbian, it is indeed not easy to go through the Cultural Revolution, return to Beijing from Chifeng, Inner Mongolia, and then return to my alma mater, where I went from lecturer to full professor. During the Cultural Revolution, I had very little time to study. In fact, in the subsequent teaching process, I continued to learn and enrich myself because I wanted to absorb new knowledge and new ideas. I prepare every class carefully and thoroughly. It should be said that my teaching at the University of International w88 and Economics was successful. Every time students rated my classes, my scores were very high. What also makes me gratified is that every time I choose a course, my course is the first to be filled. in2005In the class where I bid farewell to the undergraduate teaching podium in June 2016, I told my students: "This is my last class of this semester, and also the last class of my undergraduate teaching in this life." The audience burst into warm applause, which lasted for a long time. I was really moved at that time, and tears welled up in my eyes. I like to attend class and I like to communicate with students in class. This final applause is an affirmation of my teaching work and a comfort to me.

In terms of scientific research, due to language limitations, it is very difficult to receive first-hand information and obtain the most cutting-edge information. However, I can read Chinese translations. In this regard, I have made a lot of efforts and achieved some results. Whether it is scientific research projects in the academy, w88 casino scientific research projects, or projects of the Ministry of Foreign w88 and the Academy of Social Sciences that I participated in in the past, I have tried my best to do them.and obtainedSome good results.

There is also management. I had already50At the age of 17129_17231|, he was transferred to the Academic Affairs Office, where he was mainly responsible for managing teaching materials and teaching research. Later he was transferred to the College of Continuing Education and was in charge of adult education. I have done a lot of work in terms of the rules and regulations of adult education and the quality of teaching. Later, I returned to the Institute of Economics and w88 and did some supporting work for the former dean, such as211Acceptance, teaching management, etc. I was the first participant in correspondence teaching in w88 casino and the first person to serve as a tutor for international students. Generally speaking, my work at the w88 casino of Economics and w88 is unanimously recognized by everyone,200017356_17374

Then came the experience of studying in the Soviet Union and working in the embassy. When I went to the Soviet Union, Sino-Soviet relations had just thawed, and the two sides were still wary of each other. But during that year, I went to Moscow, Leningrad and other places, and visited all the classic Soviet art museums, etc., which can be regarded as fulfilling my childhood dream. Many of my teachers did not have the opportunity to go to the Soviet Union in person and experience Soviet culture firsthand, so I was very lucky in this respect. In terms of Russian, I am also grateful to my alma mater. The Russian language learning at my alma mater laid a solid foundation for me, so when I arrived in the Soviet Union, I was basically able to cope with that language environment. Later, I went to the Yugoslav Embassy and worked in the Commercial Section to promote our country’s foreign w88 policies. My previous teaching and research were put to use again. Later, due to changes in the situation and various opportunities, I returned to China.

05After 18197_18329|, I have been in a state of retirement, participating in some work of the Academic Affairs Office and the Working Committee on Care for the Next Generation, and often chatting and communicating with some classmates. Whatever you can do for the University of Economics and Business, do your best. The University of International w88 and Economics is my alma mater. I have been with the University of International w88 and Economics for more than thirty years, and we have formed a deep relationship. The old alumni of our generation are all thinking about the University of International w88 and concern about the development of the University.
