The Best Teachers
What if you were told you were the best—and you started to believe it? A principal gives three teachers a secret. A year later, their classes lead the region. The truth is surprising. This HSK 4 story shows how belief can change performance.
翻译 Translation
新学期开始的时候，校长把三位老师叫进办公室，告诉他们：“根据你们过去的表现，你们是本校最优秀的老师。因此，我们专门选了全校最聪明的100名学生，组成三个班让你们教。希望你们能让他们取得更好的成绩。”三位老师都高兴地表示一定尽力。
At the beginning of the new semester, the principal called three teachers into his office and told them, "According to your past performance, you are the best teachers in this school. Therefore, we specially selected the 100 smartest students in the school and formed three classes for you to teach. We hope you can help them achieve better results." All three teachers happily said they would definitely do their best.
校长又告诉他们，对待这些学生要像平常一样，不要让孩子们或家长知道他们是被特意选出来的。老师们都答应了。一年之后，这三个班的成绩果然排在整个地区的前列。
The principal also told them to treat these students as usual and not let the children or parents know that they had been specially selected. The teachers all agreed. One year later, the results of these three classes were indeed at the top of the whole region.
