Chapter 9 Learning to Learn

"Today's learning task is as simple as the basketball training task, read the first book of junior high school physics from beginning to end, word by word. Lin Wolf said to Lin Nan, who was sitting on the other end of the desk.

"Knowledge is like a big tree, the roots are the foundation, the roots that extend in all directions in the ground continue to absorb nutrients from the soil and provide them to the trunk above the land, only the more stable and solid these roots are, the trunk can grow thicker and taller, so that under the moisture of the sun and rain, it can flourish more and more. ”

"The root is invisible, but it is not absent, and the most important thing is that for the tree, many times the root is even more trustworthy than the sun and rain outside, the external factors are not certain and uncontrolled, but the root is its own, real and cannot be deceived. ”

Lin Wolf's easy-to-understand language made Lin Nan listen very seriously. But what does this have to do with learning?

Lin Wolf looked at Lin Nan's slightly puzzled expression and continued: "When you do physics and chemistry problems, do you feel that most of the knowledge points of a topic are clear and certain, but there is a small knowledge point that is uncertain, resulting in the correct solution ideas and answers to this question are also uncertain. ”

Lin Wolf's words instantly hit Lin Nan's heart, and I believe it also hit the hearts of many students, indeed, every time after the exam, the questions that were done wrong were basically the questions that were hesitant at the time, but every time I wanted to forcibly remember the mistakes, but I forgot them next time, or I couldn't recognize them if I changed them.

Timber Wolf continued: "Is it that you didn't feel this way when you took the math test, either you didn't know the questions at all, or you were careless. ”

Lin Nan nodded.

Every time he finishes the math test, he is always full of confidence that he wants to get a full score, and very rarely he will encounter the last question that he has no idea, but more often every time the result comes out, all kinds of carelessness, and deduct one point or two points.

Lin Nan likes mathematics very much, he listens very carefully to every math class, and the humorous classroom style of the math teacher makes him even less distracted.

However, physics class is different from chemistry class, occasionally I will still be in a daze and fugue, maybe those hesitant knowledge points are missed at this time.

As for Chinese and English, not to mention, daze and distraction are daily habits.

Lin Wolf finally smiled and said: "So from today on, our task is to lay a foundation, lay an incomparably solid foundation, and are not afraid of any problems and challenges, now you start to read the first physics book in the second year of junior high school! Read word by word, if you don't understand anything, go to the computer next to you to check." ”

After speaking, Lin Wolf left the study and went to the living room to read the newspaper, leaving Lin Nan alone and began to walk into the ocean of knowledge.

Turning the first page of the physics textbook for the second year of junior high school, Lin Nan had a different feeling this time.

Title page, A Scientific Journey.

On the beach, under the warm sun, a child is playing carefree. Sometimes he stares at the sea, sometimes he lowers his head and picks up something on the beach. Suddenly he ran to the side and picked up a smooth pebble, and suddenly he ran to the other side and picked up a beautiful shell......

Holding colorful pebbles and beautiful shells, the child looked at the sea in the distance, and wondered what kind of world was hidden in this rough sea? Maybe the stones at the bottom of the sea are more beautiful, maybe ......

Seeing this, Lin Nan couldn't help but think of the car engine and light bulb that he had talked about with his father a lot in the past two days, how could it not be a pebble or a shell?

Keep reading down word by word.

Yes, what kind of world is the sea? Physics is an ocean of knowledge, and it needs to be explored. In the quest for the ocean of knowledge, aren't we just like the children above, and we find beautiful pebbles and shells, and we rejoice in them......

For the first time, Lin Nan found that reading physics textbooks was also such an interesting thing. Why didn't you see such an interesting introduction in the first place?

Then looking down, Lin Nan saw Newton's gravitational attraction and Galileo's research on oscillation......

Seeing these physicists more than 300 years ago, Lin Nan felt admiration and curiosity about them, and the characters who could appear in the textbooks must be worthy of respect.

Just like Newton, Lin Nan heard many people mention it when he was very young, but what kind of person is he?

Inexplicably strong curiosity made Lin Nan turn on the computer and search for the word Newton.

The first thing you see is a series of glorious titles.

Physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, father of modern physics......

Lin Nan couldn't help but think that such a great scientist should have been a prodigy when he was a child!

I recall that when I was in first grade, the teacher asked me in class, "Kids, what are your dreams?"

At that time, more than half of the children in the class were interested in answering with high interest: "Scientists!"

Only now did Lin Nan understand that scientists are not so easy to become.

Slide the wheel on the mouse and flip down, Lin Nan saw Newton's life.

Only then did he know that Newton was not a child prodigy when he was a teenager, and his grades were average, but he liked to read, and liked to read books that introduced various simple mechanical model making methods, and was inspired to make some strange gadgets by himself, such as windmills, wooden clocks, folding lanterns, and so on.

Legend has it that after understanding the mechanics of the windmill, Newton made a model of a mill himself, and he tied a mouse to a treadmill with wheels, and then placed a grain of corn in front of the wheel, which was out of reach of the mouse. When the rat wanted to eat the corn, it kept running, so the wheel kept turning;

On another occasion when he was flying a kite, a small lamp hung on the rope, and at night the villagers looked at it with astonishment that it was a comet;

He also made a small water clock. Every morning, the little water clock will automatically drip water on his face, urging him to get up.

He also likes to paint and sculpt, especially sundials, which are placed everywhere in the corners and windowsills of his home to see the movement of the sundials.

Seeing this, Lin Nan's mind seemed to have a child who likes to do things and think, and made a mill model, a kite, a water clock, and a sundial, what a wonderful and dreamy scene.

By the way, what is it? And what does the word "sundial" read?

Lin Nan continued to ...... on Baidu online

In this way, Lin Nan kept looking at the physics textbook, but the speed was extremely slow, because Lin Nan found a lot of knowledge that made him curious and puzzled, and then patiently searched on the Internet one by one.

Some knowledge can be understood in one hundred degrees, and some seem to understand it when they look at the explanation.

However, this did not affect Lin Nan's interest in physics at the moment, he inquired about everything he didn't understand one by one, and if he couldn't figure it out, he took the textbook and ran to the living room to ask his father.

The amazing thing is that every time Lin Wolf can always answer his doubts in easy-to-understand language, which makes Lin Nan worship his father more and more.

Time passed quietly like this, and Lin Nan stayed in the study from 8:30 to 12:00 until Lin Wolf asked him to come out to eat.

It's hard to imagine that a 13-year-old boy can "learn" for so long, and the reason for all this is simply because of interest.

Interest is the best teacher for children, and Lin Wolf really did it in Lin Nan.

After lunch, Lin Wolf asked Lin Nan to take a good nap, 13 years old is the time to grow the body, a beautiful nap, it is simply comfortable not to want.

After seeing Lin Nan fall asleep on the bed, Lin Wolf himself went back to his room to sleep.

When it was about two o'clock, Lin Wolf woke up, only to find that Lin Nan was already sitting in the study, looking at the textbook and computer screen seriously.

Timber Wolf smiled with satisfaction.

Maybe Lin Nan was fighting for his father and winning the bet, maybe Lin Wolf's method really worked, which made Lin Nan interested in learning.

All in all, in just two or three days, Lin Wolf's initial education of Lin Nan has been completed.

Self-confidence, perseverance, and independent learning, the three most needed qualities in his youth have been initially formed in Lin Nan, and he lives up to his title of gold medal teacher.

An afternoon of independent study time slipped away quietly, and at half past four in the afternoon, Lin Wolf walked to the study and looked at Lin Nan who was staring at the textbook and looking thoughtful.

"Let's go, go out and play basketball!" A passionate voice instantly pulled Lin Nan out of the ocean of knowledge.

Putting down the textbook in his hand, Lin Nan ran out, and the boy really liked sports more.

After changing his clothes and sneakers at the speed of light, Lin Wolf took Lin Nan to QS County Cultural and Sports Plaza.

The basketball court located in QS County Cultural and Sports Plaza is crowded with people every day, different from Lingnan Park, where there are basically middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, and even elderly people in their sixties and seventies who love sports and basketball.

Compared with simple campus basketball, Lin Nan's basketball can grow more here.

The match between Lin Nan and Li Feng that day, on the surface, it seemed that Lin Nan still had a fight, but in fact, the wolf knew that Li Feng had released the water.

Many offensive and defensive "little skills" in basketball, Li Feng is useless, perhaps because Lin Nan is a "novice", so Li Feng is completely using skills to play.

When he came to the basketball court in the Cultural and Sports Plaza, the Timberwolves immediately saw a middle-aged man in a white jersey attacking on the court.

Defending him is a young man in his thirties, the middle-aged man is protecting the ball with his left hand, and his right hand is dribbling forward, the young man wants to stick it to defend, but the middle-aged man uses his thick and brutal left hand to block him, the key is that the blocking position is just right, it looks like a normal offense, and you can't say that he fouled. So in this way, the middle-aged easily attacked the basket and scored goals with ease.

There are some unknown ways in every industry, which may be difficult for beginners to understand, but in the eyes of the "old man", these are the things they should learn first.

Basketball is no exception, as a competitive sport, there are rules, but also there are "skills" on the edge of the rules, you can say that it is crooked, or not, but you must understand, you have to learn, in order to go further on the road of basketball.

Now, the basketball court of QS County Cultural and Sports Plaza is the best opportunity for Lin Nan to learn these.
