They were the weird ones, and they were the
ones who lost out. In the end, they couldn't even beat me in the
academic field. SMLJ 'crowding-out' effect? If that theory were
true, then those weirdos should have beaten me really good in the
academic arena.
I believe it's the same logic here with the TS. He doesn't see
the point of broadening his horizons with a second language, and in
the end, he'll be the only one who loses out on
everything.
It isn't even as though the TS is very proficient in the English
language, either.
So yeah, it wouldn't surprise me to see him meet the fate of
those weirdos.
Sorry boy, uncle already finished University, with a masters and
ba with 1:1 in fact. Have been working for many years now.
Maybe when you grow up, you will see who loses out. A person who
cannot write fluent English or a person who can write fluent
English.
Even in China, the only Chinese speaking society in the world,
the one who cannot write fluent English loses out.
Reminds me of Lian Pek's, a Singaporean turne CNN
anchor, video on the English learning craze in China.
