MODEL3   That’s the secret of their success.

Script

Chris:  Hey Sue, how’s the math class going? Are you head of the class?

Susan:  Are you kidding? There’s a bunch of foreign students in the class---from China somewhere---and they are on top.

Chris:  Why do you think so many Chinese students excel in math? It’s been my observation that the Chinese students are usually the best.

Susan:  In class they don’t say much, but they definitely get the best marks.

Chris:   I think part of it is their work ethic 1. They never skip class, and they pay attention.

Susan:  One Chinese student in my class did homework each night until the early hours. He never took a break, watched TV, or went out for a beer.

Chris:  That’s the secret of their success: hard work and deligence.

Susan:  It’s so unfair. I could probably do better if I worked harder, but that’s no fun. I think learning should be more fun.

Chris:  Someone with a knowledge of chess would find a chess tournament fascinating. But if you don’t have the knowledge, then you won’t understand the significance of the moves, and you’ll be bored.

Susan:  So what you’re saying is knowledge requires hard work, and knowledge makes things interesting. I am not against knowledge; I just want to learn it in an interesting way. What’s more, “All work and noplay makes Jack 2 a dull boy.”
