10 великих двієчників, яких знають у всьому світі!
Тільки погляньте на цих людей! Вони довели, що двієчники можуть стати знаменитими людьми. Дивлячись на цих людей усвідомлюєш, що двієчником бути не соромно.
Володимир Маяковський.
За радянських часів неуспішність Маяковського з предметів, як правило, приховували від громадськості та інших, щоб не псувати його репутацію. А також списували на революційний запал, з яким він до всього ставився.
Вінстон Черчилль.
Старшокласник був впевнений, що школа – це всього лише інститут контролю, а не спосіб утворення або передачі знань. Він вважав, що школа не є показником його знань, тому вважав за краще прогулювати заняття, не виконувати завдання, в зв’язку з чим був двієчником в школі. Однак ставши дорослішим він отримав Нобелівську премію з літератури. Чи це не показник?
Сергій Корольов.
Він був трієчником і двієчником, ніхто навіть не підозрював, яким він може стати в майбутньому. І лише через багато років були всі здивовані, коли він став одним із творців балістичних і геофізичних ракет, а також вніс невимовний внесок в розвиток космічних технологій.
Річард Бренсон.
Ця людина була визнаним фінансовим генієм, який заснував велику корпорацію. І хто ж знав, що свого часу він не міг зв’язати і двох слів, погано володів мовними навичками, а також просто мав не успішність з багатьох предметів. Ніяковів і червонів під час виступів, а в майбутньому зміг керувати цілою корпорацією. Швидке професійне зростання.
Ісаак Ньютон.
Знаменитий учений, який розкрив закони фізики в школі не відрізнявся особливим розумом, він був одним з найгірших учнів. Правда, це тривало рівно до того моменту, поки один його приятель не побив його. Замість того, щоб фізично помститися йому, хлопець вирішив перемогти його в знаннях. І незабаром став одним з кращих учнів.
Наполеон.
Великий полководець, який за часів Першої Світової війни наводив жах на інші країни, виявляється був сильний тільки в одній дисципліні і науці – це математика. Всі інші предмети у нього були на низькому рівні.
Людвіг ванн Бетховен.
Знаменитий композитор абсолютно не розбирався в граматиці, до кінця своїх днів допускав орфографічні і граматичні помилки. А складні математичні обчислення так і залишилися для нього незвіданою таємницею. Власне, як і його батькові.
Альберт Ейнштейн.
Всі ми знаємо цього вченого, як дуже розумну і логічну людину, яка змогла створити і сформулювати теорію відносності. Крім цього став лауреатом Нобелівської премії, а це дуже високе звання в області науки. Але в дитинстві його успіхи були настільки низькими, що батьки могли лише розраховувати на те, щоб він влаштувався на просту роботу. Ніхто не очікував, що він зможе добитися таких успіхів.
Олександр Пушкін.
Великий поет і письменник насправді був сильний лише в літературі й мові. Незважаючи на те, що ліцей він закінчив дуже погано, він зміг все одно добитися успіхів у творчій діяльності.
Антон Чехов.
Він був представником інтелігентного суспільства, тому повинен був вчитися відповідно. Однак на ділі все було куди більш цікавіше – він був круглим двієчником, не мав ніякої тяги до навчання. І навіть примудрився двічі залишатися на другий рік.

My Sister-in-Law Spent Her Summer at a Holiday Resort While We Renovated the House, and Now She Expects to Live in Comfort With Us We suggested pitching in together with my sister-in-law to renovate the family home, but she flatly refused, claiming she didn’t need it. Now she wants to move in with us because her half has no modern comforts—her own fault! The house belonged to my husband’s grandmother, and after she passed, it was split between my husband and his sister. It was old and neglected, but we decided to renovate and make it our home. It’s a semi-detached property with two entrances, so two families could live there comfortably without getting in each other’s way. The garden and outbuildings are shared, and both sides have the same number of rooms. The inheritance was sorted after we married, and everything went smoothly. My mother-in-law immediately declined her share—she was a city person through and through. She told her son and daughter to do as they liked. My husband and my brother-in-law scraped together enough to repair the roof and shore up the foundations. We wanted to keep going, but my sister-in-law threw a tantrum. She wanted nothing to do with this “shabby old cottage.” Her husband just kept his head down—he never argues with her. We planned to move in. The village was close to town, we had a car, and were sick of living in a cramped one-bedroom flat. Building from scratch would’ve cost a fortune. For my sister-in-law, the house was just a holiday destination—she’d pop over in summer to barbecue or relax. She told us not to count on her help. Over four years, we completely renovated our half: bathroom, heating, electrics, new windows, even a conservatory. We took out loans, but it was worth chasing our dream. We worked tirelessly, day and night. All this time, my sister-in-law jetted off on holidays, showing no interest in the house or her share. She lived for pleasure—until she had a baby and went on maternity leave. That was the end of her travels and her cash flow. Suddenly, she remembered her share. With a baby in tow, she wanted space and fresh air for him to run around. By then, our half was finished and we’d let out our old flat. We never touched her side, but it had deteriorated badly over the years. I don’t see how they could have stayed—no heating, outdoor loo, it was unliveable. Even so, she turned up with her suitcase and begged to stay “just a week”—I let her in. Her son is loud, and like her, she does whatever she wants with no regard for anyone else. I work from home, so it drove me mad; I moved in with a friend for a bit, who actually appreciated having someone look after her house while she was away. I ended up staying away almost a month. First at my friend’s, then my mum fell ill and needed care. Honestly, I forgot about my sister-in-law, assuming she’d long since gone home. Imagine my shock when I returned and found her still there, making herself at home. I asked when she planned to leave. “Why would I go anywhere? I have a small child and I’m comfortable here,” she replied. “We’ll take you back to town tomorrow,” I said. “I don’t want to go.” “You haven’t even bothered to clean your side, so back you go—this isn’t a hotel.” “You’ve no right to throw me out! This is my house!” “Your house is on the other side of the wall. Go stay there.” She tried to turn my husband against me, but he also told her she’d outstayed her welcome. She sulked and left. A few hours later, my mother-in-law started ringing: “You had no right to kick her out—it’s her property!” “She could have stayed in her own half, she’s the lady of that house,” my husband said. “With a child? There isn’t even heating or a proper loo! You should have looked after your sister.” My husband finally lost his patience and told his mum everything: how we’d offered to renovate together, how it would have cost less—and she’d refused. Why was everyone blaming us now? We offered to buy her out—she named a price so high we could have bought a brand new house for it. Not a satisfactory solution for us. Now there’s constant tension. My mother-in-law is perpetually offended. Alina is a nuisance. They visit rarely, but when they do it’s noisy parties, petty sabotage, and damages in the garden. We’ve decided to build a fence and completely separate our section. There’s no more compromise—that’s what my sister-in-law wanted.
