这zhè次cì活huó动dòng有yǒu哪些nǎ xiē好hǎo处chu和hé坏huài处chu?我们wǒ men重zhòng视shì每měi个gè人rén的de意yì见jiàn,不bù能néng只zhǐ说shuō有yǒu用yòng,却què不bù说shuō明míng作zuò用yòng和hé影yǐng响xiǎng。

What are the benefits and drawbacks of this activity? We value everyone's views and need to explain its effects, not merely call it useful.

小禾
以yǐ前qián我wǒ只zhǐ想xiǎng得dé第dì一yī名míng,现在xiàn zài更gèng想xiǎng让ràng大家dà jiā都dōu参cān加jiā。一yī个gè想xiǎng法fǎ可以kě yǐ变biàn成chéng行xíng动dòng,行xíng动dòng也yě能néng改gǎi变biàn人rén的de习惯xí guàn。

I used to want only first place; now I want everyone to take part. Ideas can become actions that change habits.

安安
有yǒu同学tóng xué提tí出chū,怎zěn样yàng才cái能néng成chéng为wéi一yī个gè愿yuàn意yì听tīng别bié人rén的de人rén?也yě有yǒu人rén提tí到dào,上shàng次cì出chū现xiàn问题wèn tí时shí,我们wǒ men没有méi yǒu及jí时shí说shuō清qīng楚chu。

Some ask how to become good listeners. Others mention that last time a problem appeared, the group did not clarify it promptly.

小禾
那nà就jiù把bǎ问题wèn tí提tí出chū来lái,一yī起qǐ进jìn行xíng讨tǎo论lùn。只zhǐ要yào大家dà jiā愿yuàn意yì改gǎi,这zhè件jiàn事shì就jiù能néng做zuò成chéng;走zǒu得de慢màn一点儿yī diǎn er也yě没关系méi guān xì。

Then raise the issue and discuss it. With willingness to improve, the task can succeed, even if progress is slow.

Extension reading

老师lǎo shī听tīng完wán,表示biǎo shì愿yuàn意yì支zhī持chí。他tā说shuō明míng,变biàn化huà不bù只zhǐ在zài分fēn数shù里lǐ,也yě在zài大家dà jiā愿yuàn不bù愿yuàn意yì把bǎ不同bù tóng的de想xiǎng法fǎ说shuō出chū来lái。

The teacher expresses support. Change lies not only in marks but in people's willingness to voice different ideas.

安ān安ān把bǎ这些zhè xiē话huà记jì成chéng几jǐ条tiáo做zuò法fǎ。她tā发fā现xiàn,得dé第dì一yī名míng的de得dé读dú第dì二èr声shēng,走zǒu得de慢màn的de得de读dú轻声qīng shēng;读音dú yīn和hé用法yòng fǎ都dōu要yào放fàng回huí句子jù zi里lǐ看kàn。

Anan turns the discussion into practical notes. 得 in winning first place has second tone, while the complement particle is neutral; each needs its sentence context.
