查文红是上海人,自愿来到安徽省砀山县曹庄镇魏庙小学,当一名不拿一分钱工资的“编外教师”。1998年9月初,当她兴致勃勃地拿着教材和精心准备的讲稿走进教室时,家长和孩子一看教师是个上海人,都用一种不信任的眼光看她。有的家长竟带着孩子离去,转到另外的班,教室里一下子就空 Cha Wenhong, a Shanghai native, volunteered to come to Weimiao Elementary School in Caozhuang Town, Weishan County, Anhui Province, where he was a “non-supernumerary teacher” who did not receive a penny. In early September of 1998, when she was happily holding textbooks and carefully prepared lectures into the classroom, parents and children saw the teacher as a Shanghai native who looked at her with a distrustful eye. Some parents actually left with their children and went to another class.
