我爸爸对我最大的、也是最重要的影响,归结起来就是一句话:他从一开始,就培养我的独立思考能力。还有他的活榜样,他如何待人处事,对我的影响最直接。我七、八岁时,有一天,父亲叫我不用去学校了,由他自己来教我。因为他对当时学校教育很不满意。他当初就讲:“你有思考的能力,知识才有用;有思考的能力,才可以不断地获取知识。更新知识。”我记得第一天爸爸给我上课,就是讲《论语》“学而”中的三句话:“学而时习之,不亦说乎?有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎?人不知而不愠,不亦君子乎?”当时我当然不懂。可爸爸从来没有给我解释过一个字,他只是启发我。有时候他也很不耐烦,他问的问题我答不上来。但我只记得,最后的答案总是由我口里说出来的。我爸爸从来没有把知识灌输给我,而是启发我自己去理解问题、获得知识。每当这时。我们两人都是绝对地在独立思考。绝对不会人云亦云,所以尽管我在西方生活了近50年,在我身上,感觉不到我是一个从西方来的人。 My father’s biggest and most important influence on me is, in a word, a sentence: From the very beginning, he has cultivated my ability to think independently. And he’s a living example, how he treats others and does the most direct impact on me. When I was seven or eight, one day my father told me not to go to school, and taught me by himself. Because he was not satisfied with the school education at that time. He had said: “You have the ability to think, knowledge is useful; have the ability to think, we can continue to acquire knowledge. Update knowledge.” I remember my father the first day of my class, is to say “The Analects” “In the three sentences:” Learn and learn from time to time, not to say that? Have friends from afar, exhilaration? People do not know without delay, not only gentleman? "Of course I do not know. But my father never explained to me a word, he just inspired me. Sometimes he is also very impatient, I can not answer the question he asked. But I only remember that the final answer was always spoken by me. My dad never instills knowledge into me, but it inspires me to understand the problem and gain knowledge. Whenever this time. Both of us are absolutely independent thinking. There is absolutely no opinion, so although I lived in the West for almost 50 years, I did not feel like I was a man from the West.
