The list of the first group of students who got admitted to college was announced today. There are nine NHSH students on the list. A student in Class 318 got admitted to the Department of Accounting at NTU. The students envied her. Their homeroom teacher Chris (林詠梅老師) wrote four words on the blackboard "天道酬勤." When Chris told me these four words, though I knew what it meant, I'd never heard this Chinese phrase. I've got to read more Chinese books from now on.
I love this phrase, and I'll challenge my students to translate it into English tomorrow.
