感谢你，外教Chance

“Liberal Arts”，在口中咀嚼回味着这个词组，总有种莫名的韵味萦绕在心头，宛如是莎士比亚的十四行诗，蕴含着别样的风情。这是怎样的一门学科？我思索，终不得其解。伴着清脆悦耳的上课铃，他走进了教室。
四十几岁的样子，黑边的圆框眼镜，微微卷起的褐色短发，普普通通的休闲服，普普通通的外貌，好像一切都是那么平凡，走入人群中便不会被轻易发现。我有些失望，这与我想象中的外教有些不大一样。但他一张口，通身的气质便豁然一变，妙语连珠，字字珠玑，仿佛是睿智明达的亚里士多德现身，亦或是才华四溢的达芬奇转世？是他让我们来到了一个全新的世界，教会了我们很多，很多。
Chance，机会，机遇，是他的名字，Change，改变，与chance只有一个字母的差异。他是一位基督教徒，信仰耶稣，信仰耶和华。也许，与他的相遇，是耶和华的恩赐，给予我们这些学生一个机会，让我们改变自己，用更广阔，更开明的眼睛看待世间万物。
In the beginning， God created the heaven and the earth，And God said, Let there be light， and there was light.
起初神创造天地，神说，要有光，就有了光。
上帝是一位神秘的艺术家，你或许可以从蒙娜丽莎淡然的微笑中窥探一二，他执起画笔，信手涂鸦，便有了光与暗，天空，陆地，还有海洋，一切一切。你可能会问上帝最自豪的画作是什么，呵呵，那当然是生命了，那是这个世界最神奇最美妙的事物。不管你是浮游生物，还是人类，不论你是渺小，或是伟岸，都是一个个鲜活的生命，是上帝赠与的奇迹，是给予世界的瑰宝。
因此，他说他最喜爱的学科便是生物，也教给了我们许多关于生物方面的知识：真菌，细菌，真核生物，原核生物，抗体，抗原……他的头脑似乎浩瀚无边，装载着数不尽的知识，连世界上最大的图书馆——国会图书馆也要自惭形秽吧。他口中的每一个词组，每一个单词，都似乎是河蚌中孕育的珍珠，有着无法言明的力量，熏陶着我们。在他口中，每一个生物都有其特点，就像你永远也找不出一组重复的DNA，有着令人心驰神往之处。显微镜下的每一个器官都会颠覆你的想象，那是要有多少细胞分裂，繁殖，再生，才会形成一毫米，甚至是一纳米的构造呢，我不知道。是他，Chance，给了我们一个机会，让我们拥有另一双眼睛，让我们勾画出生命的艺术。
再美好的事物也总会拥有无奈的时候，我们的外教考试让他失望了，他静静地坐在讲台旁的桌椅上，与我们近距离，心与心的交谈，和我们慢慢讲述着他的见解，他的期待，还有很多很多。正是这次的交流，让我们与他的感情更加贴近，不经历风雨哪能见彩虹呢，不是吗？
如果让他担任外教是上给我们的机遇，那么，我们由衷感谢你，感谢你，Chance。

My friendship with Cathy can be traced back to eight years ago. When I was in grade five, I met this “delicate” and cute Canadian lady in my English tutoring class for “Stat of Outlook” English Talent Competition. The first thing that struck me about her was her clear pronunciation and beautiful handwriting. Seeing how much I like her handwriting, she began to teach me with great patience. Even after eight years, I still write in the style she taught me in every Christmas card. We had a great time together for two years, but in 2010, Cathy decided that it was the time for her to go back to Canada. Reluctant as I was to say goodbye, there was not much that I could do to keep her staying. Before she left for Canada, my parents and I took her on a trip to Hangzhou to thank her for all her help with my study.
Since then, our communication has never been interrupted. Every two weeks, we skype each other and write emails. We send each other nicely-wrapped presents every Christmas and birthday. Talking to her becomes one of the things I look forward to most every time I go back home. Two years passed like a blink. Cathy told me with thrill that she was going to get married with a really nice guy Bob and they would like to invite me to their wedding. I felt so happy for her marriage and was even more excited about attending their wedding in Canada. It took a while for my mom and me to plan our trip. We also had two beautiful blue Tang Attires made as their wedding presents. In the summer of 2012, we stepped on the land of Canada for the first time and had an amazing journey with Cathy and Bob. Bob Johnson turns out to be a “Character”. He is humorous, strong and very considerate. We get along really well and become close friends. On the wedding, the couple wore the Tang Attires and smiled so sweetly that I couldn’t help crying. I was also their photographer of the wedding and took hundreds of photos to record this perfect moment. After the wedding week in Winnipeg, Manitoba, we went on a driving tour to Vancouver. It took us seven days to go around all the cities. We just stopped in any cities we wanted to see more and stayed overnight. Moose Jaw, Drumheller, Whistler, Vancouver, all the cities had their own characteristics and their unique beauty, which I would never ever forget.
This summer, in September, Cathy took Bob to a trip around China. My family was all so happy to receive them as guests again. Cathy and Bob seemed not to change a bit for the past five years. For Cathy, it’s like returning to her second home. But for Bob, China is a brand new country waiting to be explored. My parents and I helped them with booking all the tickets and hotels. Their itinerary was pretty compact. Xi’an, Chengdu, Guilin, Lijiang, Beijing, Zibo, Yangzhou, Nanjing are all cities they wanted to visit. The couple also stayed at my house for a few weeks. My mom cooked delicious traditional
