文化知识习得
为什么德非常重要？
有德有才是正品，有德无才是次品，无德无才是废品，有才无德是危险品。如果追溯，早在北宋时期司马光就曾给出了最为精辟的论断：才者，德之资也；德者，才之帅也；自古以来，国之乱臣，家之败子，才有余而德不足也。
学习策略形成
1．学会用不同的句式表达态度。
2．学会根据句子中的语调判断说话人的态度。
句子的语调意义
一句话除了词汇意义(lexical meaning)还有语调意义(intonation meaning)。
语调意义就是说话人用语调所表示的态度或口气。一句话的词汇意义加上语调意义才算是完全的意义。
同样的句子，语调不同，意思就会不同，有时甚至会相差千里。
