We have two stories to share with you.
“请你告诉我，我该走哪条路？”爱丽丝说。
“那要看你想去哪里。”猫说。
“去哪儿无所谓。”爱丽丝说。
“那么走哪条路也就无所谓了。”猫说。
——摘自《爱丽丝漫游奇景记》
Please tell me which way I should go? ” Said Alice.
“It depends on where you want to go.” Said the cat.
“It doesn’t matter where you go.” Said Alice.
“Then it doesn’t matter which way to take.” Said the cat.
——From《Alice in Wonderland》
有个人经过一个建筑工地，问那里的石匠们在干什么？三个石匠有三个不同的回答：
第一个石匠回答：“我在做养家糊口的事，混口饭吃。”
第二个石匠回答：“我在做整个国家最出色的石匠工作。”
第三个石匠回答：“我正在建造一座大教堂。”
A man passed a construction site and asked what the masons were doing there? The three masons had three different answers.
The first stonecutter replied, “I’m making a living and living.”
The second stonecutter replied, “I’m doing the best stonecutter job in the whole country.”
The third Mason replied, “I’m building a cathedral.”
育人工作亦是如此，教师长远清晰的目标，决定着教育的方向；选择的道路与方法，影响着育人的高度。亲爱的同学，老师们已经准备好了，期待着在最美春日与你们相见！
The same is true for education. Teachers’ long-term and clear goals determine the direction of education; the path and method they choose affect the ambition of education. Dear students, the teachers are ready, and they look forward to seeing you in the most beautiful spring day!
