你哋學校仲有教Animal Farm(動物農莊) 嗎?

有冇人知首 Beasts of England 講咁啲乜?
附上歌詞:
Beasts of England, Beasts of Ireland,
Beasts of every land and clime,
Hearken to my joyful tidings
Of the Golden future time.

Soon or late the day is coming,
Tyrant Man shall be o’erthrown,
And the fruitful fields of England
Shall be trod by beasts alone.

Rings shall vanish from our noses,
And the harness from our back,
Bit and spur shall rust forever,
Cruel whips no more shall crack.

Riches more than mind can picture,
Wheat and barley, oats and hay,
Clover, beans, and mangel-wurzels
Shall be ours upon that day.

Bright will shine the fields of England,
Purer shall its waters be,
Sweeter yet shall blow its breezes
On the day that sets us free.

For that day we all must labour,
Though we die before it break;
Cows and horses, geese and turkeys,
All must toil for freedom’s sake.

Beasts of England, Beasts of Ireland,
Beasts of every land and clime,
Hearken well, and spread my tidings
Of the Golden future time.

我間學校應該係唔會教蘇聯革命㗎:woman_facepalming:t2:

正常歷史科一定會教,我當年係CE AL詳細教,DSE就唔清楚了

唔係呀,我都係20世紀80年代讀初中,中學仲係佛教學校,英文科(不是Eng Lit )reader 有Animal Farm 呀。呢本書英文唔深咖,係寓意深

我哋一、二戰都教完啦,冇教(我喺wiki 搵咗下,你應該講緊1917俄國革命)

但係考試一定考寓意㗎:sob:

哦,咁我個時係唔使考試嘅,有上堂教幾個chapter ,然後自己睇完寫個讀書報告就係咁多

應該都係扮嗰啲左派社會主義歌?國際歌之類(鵝們是快樂的好耳痛)

咁學校係可以揀教邊啲嘅,但多數CE, AL History 一定唔會唔教俄國1905及1917年革命

我係由阿歷山大一路教到史泰林

讀歐洲史主要讀英德俄三國

而且真心:歐洲史唔教俄國革命,間學校/歷史科老師都幾不負責任

我哋連亞歷山大帝國都唔教啊

中一讀尼羅河文明+羅馬帝國
中二讀Renaissance, East-west encounters
中三已讀一、二戰

你誤會咗,我指係俄國嘅亞歷山大一二世,唔係希臘嗰個

仲有我講緊係CE會考同AL預科西史,讀得好深入,所以我哋個年代Animal Farm只係寓言故事,唔會唔識

我哋真唔讀沙俄wor :woman_facepalming:t2:,冇深讀過沙俄,就一戰聽過個名姐:pensive:

咁冇修西史唔識唔出奇,有修嘅話Animal Farm 係好普通嘅讀物

DSE 好似cut咗好多

有讀過CE and AL History及中史嘅人,一埋牙就知道

當年係讀到死,但畢生受用,隨手睇一套documentary 講現代史都follow 到

我都想揀中西史:face_with_monocle:,想問考大學係咪真係好多嘢寫㗎?

你好細個?中學?

大學讀乜都多嘢寫特別係人文科目

唔係好細,中三,想諗定揀咩科姐

:rofl::rofl::rofl:咁唔怪之得你唔明我講咩啦,CE, AL
係姨姨殖民地年代產物

歷史,有興趣有能力讀會受用一世,如果喺香港就唔會被共產黨呃,但DSE 變成點我就唔肯定,你研究下
