    Sun Yuanqi didn¡¯t take it seriously at first. After all, the "Collected Commentary on Chapters and Sentences of the Four Books" is the most influential classic in China since the Song and Yuan Dynasties. It is understandable to use the morning time to review and recite it.  After walking around several classrooms, I realized that something was wrong: all the students who were reading in the morning were holding yellowed ancient books.  No need to ask, they are all "Four Books", "Five Classics" and the like.

    Seeing Sun Yuanqi frowning, Liu Shipei explained on the side: "Chinese classics, especially the Four Books and the Five Classics, have endless implications and belong to the category of constant reading and always new. The Analects of Confucius says, 'Reviewing the past will make you learn the new'."  It is reasonable for students to wake up in the morning and review their skills. What's more, the most important thing for Western learning such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry is to rely on understanding, and memorization is ineffective.  It¡¯s understandable if they don¡¯t look at it now.¡±

    Sun Yuanqi shook his head.  The statement that science and engineering knowledge does not need to be memorized is completely false.  In fact, the learning of all knowledge is based on memory, and understanding and practice must be based on memory.  Especially in physics and chemistry, you need to be familiar with memorizing knowledge points and formulas, otherwise understanding and practice will become Versailles on the beach.

    Seeing that there were more and more students and classes were about to start, Sun Yuanqi and his party left the Zhijun Normal School and came to the nearby normal training center.  The distance between the two schools is only a few hundred steps and can be reached by walking in just a few minutes.

    When I walked into the teaching center, it was supposed to be class time.  But when I entered the door, I saw seven or eight young and middle-aged people surrounding an old master, sitting in the shade of the tree at the entrance of the school building, holding a pipe in his hand and chatting.  When I got close, I could hear clearly, and I saw the old master saying impassionedly: "He writes well, so it stands to reason that he will win. But there are always surprises, such as the examiner's hobby, or the rain leaking in the Gongyuan.  , for example, if the article accidentally violates a taboo. As the saying goes: Don't talk about your life under the window, and don't write papers in the field. In other words, when it's your time to study, don't think about fate, just work hard; but once you sit in the examination room,  Don't say that you work harder than others on weekdays. You have to obey fate and face reality.

    "When I was young, I took the provincial examination in Nanjing. It was in the Qiuzihao room. As soon as I sat down, a man came next to me. The officer came over and asked him his name and place of origin. After answering, the officer handed over his hand and congratulated him, saying that he had dreamed about it last night.  A woman was holding an apricot flower. The woman told him, "When someone from a certain county reports tomorrow, please tell him that the apricot flower is here." After saying that, she put the apricot flower on the number room. Now her name, birthplace, and place are Heruo  Isn't the talisman a good omen? Who knew that when the man heard this, he was so shocked that he even left the show on the pretext of illness without even taking off the Four Treasures of the Study.

    "I was so curious that I was thinking about this during the exam and didn't even finish writing the article. After I came out, I quickly found the man's fellow villagers and asked, only to find out that the scholar was talented but had bad conduct. He once defiled a girl named Xinghua.  When the woman became pregnant, she kicked her out of the house, killing one and two. As a result, she was not satisfied with her retribution, so she went to the examination room to seek revenge.

    "So, if you want to win the election, you must write the article well, but the key is not just the article. The predecessors said, 'One fate, two luck, three feng shui, four accumulation of yin virtue and five reading.' Very insightful! Everyone has at least  After reading the articles of sages for ten or twenty years, I am naturally familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and I have sharpened my eight-part weapon. I am just waiting to take the exam, so that I can gain fame and scratch my bruises. Who would have thought that the imperial court would issue an order to abolish the imperial examination? We all  All the decades of hard work have been in vain! Isn¡¯t this life?¡±

    The surrounding audience resonated greatly, and they couldn¡¯t help but nodded and sighed: ¡°Isn¡¯t it just fate?¡±

    The old master took a deep breath of cigarette, exhaled it leisurely, and then continued: "I heard from my friends in Beijing that Sun Xuezhi, the new arrival in the province, has been studying in the West since he was a child. He is scientific and chemical, and he knows seventy-eight  Chinese English. But he knows nothing about his own country. Not only has he not read "Three", "Hundred" and "Thousand", but he has even written all the words in a mess and is missing arms and legs. You said, he is here to preside over  In academic politics, will there be any unexpected four essay questions? As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. When it comes to the exam, as long as students know how to smelt iron and how to burn glass, even if you write "Yu Yu Hu Wenzai"  If you are both equal to me, I think he will marry you too!"

    Seeing that the old master began to criticize current affairs, Sun Yuanqi lost interest and wandered around the school with Yang Du and Liu Shipei.  I found that this teacher training school called "Zhuan Xi Institute" is almost the same as the Hanlin Academy in Beijing. They chat, play chess, recite poems and write poems The teachers and students in the school are divided into different interest groups and carry out a variety of entertainment activities.

    Sun Yuanqi looked a little displeased: How can teachers from such a normal school shoulder the important task of disseminating knowledge, promoting science and technology, and opening up people's wisdom?  If a normal training center is run like this, what¡¯s the point of its existence?

      After looking at it for a long time, the three of them were a little disappointed and decided to change their itinerary and first go to the Lianghu Normal School on the bank of Dusi Lake in Yingfangkou.

    The Lianghu Normal School was built in the 30th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu (1904), when Zhang Zhidong renovated the Lianghu Normal School with a huge sum of 43,000 taels of Kuping silver.  The school is large in scale and has five majors: benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith. It plans to enroll 1,200 students and is named "Thousand Normal Schools" with a five-year schooling system.  The school also has an affiliated elementary school and an affiliated elementary school, which serve as internship places for students.

    ¡°Perhaps because this is the highest normal school in Huguang area, Zhang Zhidong paid extra attention to it, and there were actually recruits standing guard with guns at the school gate.

    ¡°The three of them have all gone through a lot of battles, and they look and dress like students. I thought that this kind of access control would be really easy.  At that moment, the public recommendation sent Yang Du forward, who spoke with a strong Hunan accent to negotiate with the soldiers. He only said that he was a student of Zhijun Normal School and came to the school to find a fellow countryman named "Ren Junyi".  The soldier was indeed deceived, and the three of them entered the school easily.

    Compared with the first two schools, Lianghu Normal University is obviously much more formal.  At this time, it is during class, and the voice of the teacher teaching and the voice of students reading can be heard from time to time in the well-organized classroom.  Stopping and making a rough distinction, there are Bible reading and lecture classes, arithmetic classes, education classes, natural history classes, physics classes, etc.

    Sun Yuanqi, who has a background in physics, naturally first went to the classroom where the physics class was taught, and heard the teacher inside saying in not very fluent Chinese: "there is weight and there is mechanics, the weather is above, and the earth's pressure is  Below, you can see that force is important. Things have two principles: motion and stillness. The motion of the static makes it move, and the resistance of the motion makes it still. Both of them require force. If you understand the principle, you can kill the physical force to save manpower, and help the human force to overcome the physical force.  , the wonderful uses are endless. There are seven labor-saving and power-assisting tools: the first is the lever, the second is the axle, the third is the pulley, the fourth is the inclined plane, the fifth is the sharp split, the sixth is the spiral, and the seventh is the gear."

    After listening for a long time, Sun Yuanqi realized that this guy was starting from Newton's first law and starting to talk about mechanics.  But can't you speak it in vernacular?  Would it be difficult to translate Newton's first law into "Any object, without any external force, always maintains a state of uniform linear motion or a state of rest until an external force acting on it forces it to change this state?"  You must drag the article!  Even Sun Yuanqi had a hard time understanding it, and he doubted whether the students sitting below could understand it.

    After listening for a while, Sun Yuanqi came to the window of the natural history class again. The person who listened to the stumbling words inside seemed to be a Japanese: "the Qing Dynasty wanted to break the blockade of European and American countries, gain independence and freedom, and implement the New Deal, relying only on its own country  The power of the Qing Dynasty cannot be achieved at all, and it is necessary to recruit knowledgeable people from abroad to provide suggestions and plans for various undertakings. Looking around the world, who can do their best to support the Qing Dynasty, who else can we do? Japan? Last year, our country, Japan  The soldiers in the Northeast were not afraid of sacrifice, fought bravely and bloodyly, defeated Tsarist Russia, and regained the mountains and rivers for the Qing Dynasty, which is a proof. Therefore, the coal, iron and other minerals of the Qing Dynasty should also cooperate with Japan, and jointly exploit them, so as to control the Western countries.  Coveted!¡±

    When Sun Yuanqi heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to go into the house to see what kind of person he was who said this.  Before he even took a step, Yang Du grabbed him tightly: "Bai Xi, it's inappropriate for you to go in!"

    "?" Sun Yuanqi was puzzled.

    "You are an academic envoy, a high-ranking official of the second rank. Do you want to go in and argue with him and show off your rhetoric? Not long after you arrived in Hubei, you were having a quarrel in front of everyone. How can you have any prestige?  What will the students think of you? Don't be impatient! If you want to ask him to leave, it's just a matter of words? Why are you just showing off your ambition at this time!"

    After listening to Yang Du's words, Sun Yuanqi stopped his impulse angrily.

    In fact, in order to export culture and develop pro-Japanese forces in China, Japan has been actively fighting for China¡¯s educational rights.  In 1902, the Imperial Japanese Educational Association established the "Qing Kingdom Dispatched Teacher Training Institute" to specifically train teachers sent to China.  Civil society has also established similar institutions.  In 1903, a training center for female teachers dispatched by the Qing Dynasty was also established in Tokyo.  Some Japanese universities directly recruit teachers and students who volunteer to come to China to serve as school teachers in China.

    During the late Qing Dynasty, a large number of Japanese teachers came to China to teach, with the maximum number reaching five to six hundred, spread across China.  In the article "On Japanese Educational Power in China" written by a Japanese, it is openly claimed: "There are three types of Japanese educational power in China, namely Japanese teachers, Japanese students and Japanese textbooks translated into Chinese."

    Fortunately, after so many years of efforts by Sun Yuanqi, Japanese textbooks translated into Chinese have been defeated in China. Japanese students also stay in Jingshi University to study five lectures, four beauties and three loves. What needs to be eradicated now is the remaining Japanese teaching!  (To be continued.
