3. 关于问卷调查
YOUR OPINION COUNTS
因为节假日连连，一个月来学校授课也是断断续续，部分家长因忙于节庆和应酬，还没有足够的时间静下心来认认真真地思考和回答我校董事会给大家精心准备的问卷调查。我们在此特别提醒大家，恳请您花一点时间，或笔头作答、或网上作答，事关学校的发展和未来的走向，尽快把您的想法反馈回董事会。学校是大家的学校，西北是我们共同的西北，惟有集中了大家的共同意志，我们才能把西北在现有的基础上办得更好。YOUR OPINION COUNTS.
PLEASE.
4. “咬”文“嚼”字话“温润” A SAMPLE OF WORD EXPLANATION
两个多月前，南海公司、侨报和我校等单位承办了《玉文化·茶文化》的“文化中国·名家巡讲”活动，在形容玉的美时，专家用了“温润”这个词，但还是觉得没有说清“温润”的玉到底是什么样子；汉语词典用“细润”解释，也令人觉得不完整，因为“细润”只解释了质地，没有描绘成色。近日，读台湾70年代的中国散文随笔，其中有一个相似的情景描述，作者说他也没有适当的词句去形容“温润”这两个字，只能用实物去体现：“比如，春天到了，孩子们已经在家里关了好几个月了，都想要出去走走，你带他们到公园去，教他们随意追逐、奔跑。当他们回到你的身边时，你看他们的脸，那就是“温润”的样子。所谓‘白里透红，红里透白’”。甚是。
5．这些大家的经典散文随笔您读过多少？
20TH CENTURY CHINESE PROSE WRITERS AND THEIR STYLE
曾在华大执教多年的台湾中国文学教育家杨牧教授早在80年代就致力于五·四以降中国近代散文的教学与研究，在杨牧主编的《中国近代散文选》中（洪范版），他是这样分类的：“20世纪初叶的散文家转折崛起，波澜壮阔，为近代散文建立了不可颠覆的典型类型。所谓散文，归纳起来，不过以下七类：一曰小品，周作人奠定其基础；二曰记述，以夏丐尊为前驱；三曰寓言，许地山最称淋漓尽致；四曰抒情，徐志摩为之宣泄无遗；五曰议论，趣味多得体于林语堂；六曰说理，胡适文体影响至深；七曰杂文，鲁迅综其体例、语气及神情。”这虽是几十年前的评论，但不过时。如果您有兴趣，不妨读读看。
6．本学期结束前要做的几件大事
THINGS IMPORTANT TO ACCOMPLISH BY THE END OF THE SEMESTER
1）各学科、分校对下学期的课程安排意见；
2）中文教研室将组织全体语文老师听取辛辛那提会议的汇报；
3）请大家积极响应PTA春晚团队的号召，力所能及地支持他们的工作，由PTA担纲、董事会和行政协理这项活动是一种新的尝试，因此，尤其离不开广大教师和家长的密切配合；
4）在合适的时间，校长将协调董事会安排与部分教师和家长座谈，同时，有关人员将向大家汇报辛辛那提大会上有关学校建设的内容；
5）最后一周，请各班主任老师、PTA LEAD及家长协作安排好在各班教室进行的PARTY。活泼、快乐、温馨、有序，同时注意安全，注意保持教室的整洁。低年级各班尤其需要呵护；
6）请各位老师按照冷校长今天早些时候发出的通知安排好本班的各项工作。
