这周我在练听力时听到了一篇美国学生课本中的课文，让我很有感触，内容是这样的：
什么时候说不
1.虽然“不”是个非常简单的词语，可是要说出来并不总是容易的;而不把它说出来，常常会引来麻烦。
2.如果有人叫我们逃学，懒散度日或者把应该用于学习的时间用来调皮捣蛋，我们应该马上说“不”。
3.当有人怂恿我们在上学的路上消磨时间，从而迟到、打断老师上课或者学校的活动，我们应该说“不”。当有的同学想要我们在教室里交头接耳或玩耍，我们应该说“不”。
4.当我们受到诱惑，想要使用愤怒或邪恶的言语时，我们应该记住上帝的眼睛无时无刻不在注视着我们，我们应该说“不”。
5.当我们做了错事，却想要用谎话来掩饰时，我们应该说“不，我们不能说谎，那是邪恶而懦弱的行为。”
6.要是有人要求我们做任何我们知道是错的事情，我们应该勇敢无畏地 说“不”。
7.如果我们就此学会说“不”，我们将会避免许多麻烦，长享平安。
这篇课文，虽然只有短短的7句话，但它却向孩子们传递了一个重要的人生道理就是：在面对错误和诱惑时，要勇敢地说出“不”。这不是一件容易的事情，不仅是对孩子，对我们成年人来说也是。
美国的这本课本，除了教孩子们单词和语法，更重要的是，它引导孩子们学会了辨别是非，逐渐建立起正确的价值观和对神明信仰。
辨别是非的能力是我们每个人成长不可或缺的一部分。通过正确的教育，孩子们学会了在日常生活中分辨正确与错误的行为，理解哪些行为是对的，哪些可能会导致不良的后果。培养这种能力的会为孩子们提供一个坚实的基础，使他们能够在遇到问题时做出明智的决定。
同样建立正确的价值观对孩子也至关重要。这不仅涉及到知道什么是对的什么是错的，还包括对他人的尊重、诚实、责任感以及同情心等等。拥有正确价值观的孩子会以一种更健康、积极的方式与周围的世界互动。
第三个，也是最重要的一个——对神明的信仰。信仰是孩子们面对生活中诱惑和挑战时坚不可摧的精神支柱。在信仰的指导下，孩子们不仅可以学会拒绝那些可能使他们迷失方向的诱惑，也能获得内心坚强和勇敢，让他们在人生的旅途中，能坚定地走在正确的道路上。
叔叔常说，教育的真正意义不仅仅在于让孩子们掌握必要的知识和技能，更重要的是引导孩子成为有道德、有信仰、有责任感的人。只有这样，孩子们才能在未来的生活中，无论面对何种挑战和诱惑，都能做出正确的选择，成为既能承担家庭责任又能为社会做出贡献的栋梁之材。
This week when I was practicing listening, I heard a text from an American student textbook, which really touched me. The content is as follows:
When to say no
1. Although "no" is a very simple word, it is not always easy to say it; not saying it often leads to trouble.
2. If someone asks us to skip school, live idlely, or use the time that should be spent studying to be naughty, we should say "no" immediately.
3. When someone encourages us to waste time on the way to school, thereby being late, interrupting the teacher's class or school activities, we should say "no". When some students want us to whisper or play in the classroom, we should say "no".
4. When we are tempted to use angry or evil words, we should remember that God’s eyes are always upon us and we should say “no.”
5. When we do something wrong and want to cover it up with lies, we should say "No, we can't lie, that is evil and cowardly behavior."
6. If someone asks us to do anything that we know is wrong, we should have the courage to say "no".
7. If we learn to say "no" to this, we will avoid a lot of trouble and enjoy peace for a long time.
Although this text only has 7 short sentences, it conveys an important life principle to children: when facing mistakes and temptations, they must be brave enough to say "no". This is not an easy thing, not only for children, but for us adults as well.
This American textbook not only teaches children vocabulary and grammar, but more importantly, it guides children to learn to distinguish right from wrong, and gradually establish correct values and belief in gods.
The ability to distinguish right from wrong is an integral part of each of us' growth. Through the right education, children learn to distinguish between right and wrong behaviors in daily life, and understand which actions are right and which may lead to adverse consequences. Developing this ability will provide children with a solid foundation that enables them to make informed decisions when faced with problems.
It is also important for children to establish correct values. This involves not only knowing what is right and wrong, but also respect for others, honesty, responsibility, compassion, and more. Children with the right values interact with the world around them in a healthier, positive way.
The third and most important one is belief in gods. Faith is an indestructible spiritual pillar for children when they face temptations and challenges in life. Under the guidance of faith, children can not only learn to reject temptations that may cause them to lose their way, but also gain inner strength and courage, allowing them to walk firmly on the right path in their life journey.
My uncle often said that the true meaning of education is not only to enable children to master necessary knowledge and skills, but more importantly, to guide children to become moral, religious and responsible people. Only in this way can children make the right choices no matter what challenges and temptations they face in their future lives, and become pillars of society who can both assume family responsibilities and contribute to society.
