With the experience of Liangjiang University, Jiang Shuiyuan was a little afraid of the interview at Jinling University: if he met an examiner who knew his feelings, moved with reason, and lured him to benefit, how could he parry?

Fortunately, things didn't go the way he thought they would.

There are also two interview examiners at Jinling University, one is a gentle and elegant middle-aged man, and the other is a white-haired old lady with kind eyebrows, who looks like they have been battle-hardened and experienced, but their temperament is like the school spirit that their school has accumulated for a hundred years, neither ostentatious nor restrained, neither luxurious nor shabby, so gentle and elegant to sit there quietly, occasionally asking a sentence or two:

"I've seen the biology test paper you did yesterday, and it's pretty good. It seems that your dream is to develop a portable DNA damage detector, why do you have this idea?"

Jiang Shuiyuan replied carefully: "Life in the world is always inseparable from the four words of life, old age, illness and death, the ancients often said that 'death and life are also great', in the face of aging and death, no matter the emperor or the sage, no one can maintain a peaceful state of mind, not alarmed, so since human beings have been conscious, they have been very concerned about the method of longevity and immortality. Modern science has shown that DNA damage is closely related to old age, illness and death, and that DNA damage gradually accumulates with age. The use of DNA sequencing and alignment technology to monitor the accumulation of DNA damage in real time is of great significance for intervening in cell aging, preventing the occurrence of cancer, and calmly facing death. That's why I wanted to develop a portable DNA damage detector. ”

"Do you think people really need this technology? As you just said, death and life are also important, and no one can keep their peace of mind in the face of death. Often, the closer you are to death, the more you fear it. The advent of portable DNA damage detectors is tantamount to putting people under the shadow of death for the rest of their lives until they are engulfed by death. Don't you think that's cruel?"

"Cruelty? Two thousand five hundred years ago, Confucius said, 'Since ancient times, there has been death', 1,600 years ago, Wang Xizhi said, 'Repair the short and follow the transformation, and the end will be exhausted', and eight hundred years ago, Wen Tianxiang said, 'Who has not died in life since ancient times', which has been regarded as a classic by the world and recited from generation to generation. Now, just by adding a time limit in front of the word 'death', some people feel that the shadow is shrouded, dark, and lifeless, when has human beings become so fragile?" Jiang Shuiyuan paused, and then continued: "It is true that when people know that their time is short, they will be afraid, sad, and afraid, which is also human nature. But it is precisely because of this that people can cherish their lives more, arrange their time reasonably, let people have no regrets in life as much as possible, and finally face death calmly. In comparison, I think that it is the real cruelty to let human beings, who are the elbows of all souls, be born in a daze, live in a muddle, and finally die in an unknown way!"

The old lady, who had been sitting there quietly, said at this time: "It's good to be young, everything is fearless. An old woman in my fifties and sixties will not be able to do it, I am afraid of death, and if technology tells me that I can only live until the end of the year, I may not even survive tomorrow. - By the way, have you participated in the provincial selection competition for the difficult theory of Chinese studies?"

"Yes. Earlier this year, I was fortunate to participate in the provincial selection competition as a member of the Huai'an Provincial Team. However, because something happened at home, I left early. ”

"You were only a freshman in high school at that time, right? ”

"That's right. For a while, I was more interested in Chinese studies, so I read some books, and joined the school's Chinese Studies Lecture Club, with the help of teachers and seniors, I got to know the way for the first time, and I was fortunate to get the guidance of Mr. Han Xianru, the former principal of Huai'an Normal School, and benefited a lot. Of course, in the end, to be able to advance to the provincial selection competition, in addition to everyone's concerted efforts, luck is also one thing. Although the old lady asked casually, Jiang Shuiyuan felt the momentum on her face suppressed, as if a primary school student saw the head teacher.

The old lady nodded: "I heard that Mr. Ji Xun and Qiao Zhizhi from the School of Chinese Studies in our school mentioned you, saying that you have a very good foundation in Chinese studies, and I really want to recruit you as a guaranteed student, but you said that you are studying science." For this reason, the two gentlemen also went to the office to complain to us about this matter, hoping that we can find a way to recruit you to the School of Chinese Studies of Jinling University. How's it going? Have you changed your mind now?"

Jiang Shuiyuan immediately remembered the two old gentlemen he met during the provincial selection competition, especially the old Mr. Ji who was going to introduce other people's precious granddaughters to his girlfriend, and he was unforgettable: "Ji Lao, Qiao Lao, are they okay? Thank them for their love, but I still think it's good to study science!"

The middle-aged man said: "Are you still thinking about developing your portable DNA damage detector? I have consulted the teachers of the biology department of the School of Science of our school for this purpose, and they think that the feasibility is there, but there are many major theoretical and technical problems that need to be solved, and the follow-up miniaturization is even more difficult, and it is estimated that it will take about 20 years, which is still under the premise that the teams of multiple disciplines such as life science, biotechnology, and computer technology work together to tackle key problems!"

Jiang Shuiyuan replied: "This is a dream of mine for a long time, and if conditions permit, I will work hard to promote the development of this instrument, whether it is ten or twenty years, or thirty years or fifty years." As for the many problems that exist, to borrow the words of our teacher He Dayi, the greater the difficulties, the greater the glory, and all the problems will eventually become the most dazzling ornaments on the laurels of the successful!"

The middle-aged man nodded: "Okay, where there is a will, there is a way, I wish you to realize your dreams as soon as possible and make important contributions to human health! Our Jinling University has outstanding strength in physics, biology, electronics, computers, etc., and ranks among the top in the country, and is a high-quality platform for you to lay a solid foundation and realize your dreams." I wonder if you would be interested in coming to our school?"

Jiang Shuiyuan scratched his head and made a procrastination trick again: "Can you allow me to go back and discuss with my family again?"

"Absolutely, after all, school choice matters. If you are sure to study in our school, please be sure to fill it out and send it to the Undergraduate Admissions Office of Jinling University before next Friday, because you must know that the number of guaranteed students in Jinling University has always been highly competitive. As he spoke, the middle-aged man handed over a form.

Jiang Shuiyuan walked out of the interview and examination room with the form, and as soon as the cool breeze blew, his head suddenly sobered up: Why did I get another set of "application forms"? If you want to say that the Liangjiang University is a last resort, then what about this one? If you want to go to Jingshi University, you should simply reject them; if you want to go to Jinling University, you should directly agree to it on the spot. I want to refuse, but I also took someone's "Application Form", isn't this looking for a draw?

It happened that Shi Yang also walked out of the interview and examination room of Liangjiang Normal University at this time, and saw Jiang Shuiyuan holding a copy of the "Application Form" there in a daze, and couldn't help asking: "Hey, why did you get a copy of Jinling University's "Application Form for Escort Students" again?"

Jiang Shuiyuan's face was full of depression: I still want to know what's going on!

Shi Yang immediately patted his head with some pleasure: "Fortunately, you are not a Virgo man with philatelic habits, otherwise I doubt that you can collect all the "Application Forms for Guaranteed Students" from colleges and universities across the country." If that's the case, how many people will you get into trouble? You must know that there have always been too many monks and too little porridge to escort students, and maybe my brother and I will all be poisoned by you. ”

Jiang Shuiyuan explained: "I said I would go back and think about it, and he gave me a ......."

Shi Yang pouted: "Go back and think about it? What to consider? To put it bluntly, you are indecisive and don't know how to refuse! Hey——, you are so good at studying, and you look so jade, the key is not to know how to refuse, how many people will you have to pit in the future? Think about it, I have to worry about the girls around you!" (To be continued.) )
