笨寶寶進天才班

麻州沒有傳統意義上的天才班。寶寶的學校有一個math enhancement program，每個年級選十來個孩子，在正常的數學課時間出去學一些深一點的內容。寶寶最要好的朋友從學前班開始就在這個項目裏，據他媽媽說，這就相當於我們這裏的天才班了。

我的數學很差，高考滿分120我隻有五十幾分，寶寶遺傳不好，對數學也不怎麽感冒,前三年都和這個天才班無緣。人比人，氣死人啊。

 今年寶寶上三年級，開學沒幾天拿回來張紙，說是被推薦上天才班啦。老媽美壞了，真給媽媽長臉。抱過來左啃右啃，寶寶還不領情，說：“I hate math!  Now I have to do double math!”

 3個月的過去，發現笨孩子上天才班真是有苦說不出！想當年寶寶放學十分鍾作業搞定，他玩他的遊戲，丁丁和媽媽玩媽媽的遊戲，現在天天晚上雞飛狗跳，鬼哭狼嚎。

 選兩道今天的題為例。

Case 1 – 媽媽會做的題：

Jenny and her parents went to the amusement park.  They left home at 1:00pm and return at 9:00pm.  The park is 1 hour drive away from their home.  How long did they stay in the park?

寶寶答：“10 hours。” 

我耐心啟發。

寶寶再答：“12 hours。”

我再啟發。

“8 hours？”

再再再啟發！

“7 hours？”

“你就蒙吧！”

丁丁開始咬寶寶。寶寶打丁丁，我罵寶寶，寶寶哭，丁丁咬我，我和丁丁搏鬥。。。

 老媽我看了一遍兩遍三四遍, 然後很嚴肅的告訴寶寶: “不做完不許睡覺!” 然後刷牙去也。
