Chapter 324: The clouds are gone, and I'm coming
Ye Chao is now a typical dual personality, his heart only wants to guide the demon heart to prevent it from harming the world, and the demon heart is eager for adventure, excitement, and a few encounters from time to time......
Fortunately, the current Queen of England is already old, otherwise, Ye Chao is really afraid that the heart of the Demon Dao will give birth to a strong desire to conquer, and then the queen will be asleep, but she is not a woman, I am afraid that it will cause a diplomatic storm.

According to the past habits of Huaguo, it is possible to expel nationality, and Ye Chao is not afraid to speculate on the madness of the Chinese people with the most external preparations. Fortunately, in the past ten years, the country's strong atmosphere of admiring foreign countries is no longer popular with the Chinese people, and it has gradually become more and more tough.
Looking at the prosperity of London, this foggy city, has carried the dreams of many young people for hundreds of years, and in the past, studying abroad and studying abroad has become a dream of Chinese young people. It seems that the children of powerful and wealthy families do not go abroad to study, and they are not qualified if they are gilded.
The returnees used to be the glory of young students, and if they didn't go to sea, if they didn't return, they wouldn't be able to reach the pinnacle of high society.
The United Kingdom, with institutions of higher learning such as Cambridge and Oxford, has been an ideal place for China's privileged classes to study abroad for many years. Ye Chao also had the opportunity to study abroad at the beginning, but he gave up, not because he didn't think it was good to study abroad, but because he was too weak at that time.
Ye Chao also dreamed of going to the end of the world with a sword and seeing the prosperity of the world......
Most people, when they are young, they are always a little frivolous, but now that they have made their homes all over the world, they are eager to return to the quiet and leisurely way they used to be.
When it comes to the University of Cambridge, the history is really long......
The University of Cambridge was founded in 1209 by a group of teachers who fled from the University of Oxford to escape the brawl.
In the 12th century, Franciscans, Benedictines and Friars settled in this flat, damp marshland, and Cambridgeshire was born.
In 1209, two scholastic philosophers at Oxford University were accused of murdering a prostitute, and the Oxfordshire court sentenced them to death by hanging. In protest, Oxford teachers stopped teaching for a while, and some of them came to Cambridgeshire, where they founded the University of Cambridge.
Around 1225, the faculty of Cambridge elected a rector from among them, whose authority was approved by King Henry III, and the self-management of the university was born.
Soon after, in 1233, Pope Gregor IX also approved this ecclesiastical privilege that Oxford did not enjoy until 1254, with the decrees of Henry III and his heirs ensuring the monopoly of the two universities.
Until the 19th century, for 600 years, Oxford and Cambridge were the only universities in England.
Nowhere else in Europe does this have such a monopoly.
Like Oxford, the Cambridge university didn't have a house of its own in the first place. They lecture and live in rented houses, where there is a place. From the very beginning, the students lived in the hostel, which was supervised by the owner.
In 1231, King Henry III granted Cambridge a monopoly on teaching.
In 1280, before such private hostels were replaced by colleges with their own campuses and donations, there were already 34 of these student apartments in the city, which ensured the longevity and independence of the colleges.
In 1284, Bishop Hugh de Balsham of Avery Abbey founded the first college in Cambridge, Peterhouse College. Until the college had statutes, it was modeled after Merton College, Oxford's episcopal college, which was 20 years earlier.
Cambridge graduates had the most desirable employment opportunities in the past, especially after the plague of 1347~1348, which claimed nearly one-third of the population of England, the demand for well-educated priests, administrators, jurists, and doctors increased.
Around 1370 there were eight colleges in Cambridge and about 20 hostels. There are nearly 700 people throughout the university. The founders of Cambridge's early colleges were definitely not just church members. The kings and their women, the wives of the upper nobility such as Elisabeth de Claire and the Countess of Pembroke, and the number of state officials, merchants, and bishops were quite few.
The Guardian of the Eucharistic College was the only college in Cambridge (and Oxford) founded by the city's two guilds, during which time the university built its first building of its own, the old school (1350-1475) with classrooms, meeting rooms, library and administration building.
The other houses revolve around these college cores: Clare College, Trinity School, and Gonville School.
Around 1500, there were more than a dozen colleges in Cambridge, most of them located between the High Street and the River Sword, from Peterhouse College, already outside the city walls, by Tranpington Gate in the south, to the site of what would become Trinity College and St John's College.
When humanist ideas also spread with the printing press. The most prominent representative of this great revival of the classical spirit in Europe was Erasmus from Rotterdam.
From 1511 to 1514 he lived at Queen's College, where he taught theology and Greek, writing, translating, publishing, and corresponding, with an unsurpassed vigor and elegance. Erasmus was more than just an evangelist for Cambridge.
The study of primary sources replaced medieval scholasticism. The focus shifted from theology to eloquence, from training pastors to cultivating learned pillars of the nation.
Since then, ancient languages and literatures have long played an important role in the curricula of British universities. The Cambridge humanists' interest in Greek and Hebrew led to collated editions of the Bible and ancient religious writings.
It is also a hotbed of reform.
The man who summoned Eramus to Cambridge was his friend John Fisher, who played a key role in this development. The humanitarian teaching program made it possible to elevate the University of Cambridge to a European level in a few years, first and foremost on a par with Oxford.
Although Heinrich VIII himself never had a particular interest in Cambridge, he donated five royal professorships to the university, which was a contradiction between the times and its flaming kings. In this era of breakthroughs, the royal family needed Oxford and Cambridge to act as reservists for reliable administrators, jurists and priests, and to serve as the academic pillars of government.
Thus, Heinrich VIII himself eventually founded an academy in 1546, merging the two older colleges into a new, much larger academy that surpassed all the colleges hitherto, Trinity College, more than just a sign of aristocratic freedom.
To this day, it remains the only college in Cambridge where the Dean is not elected by the Fellows, but by the Crown on the proposal of the Prime Minister.
When James I stayed at Trinity College in 1614, smoking was forbidden throughout the college, as the king was known to hate smoking. For his amusement, the teachers arranged a philosophical play, a debating performance on the question of "whether the dogs have a syllogism."
Finally concluded that dogs cannot think.
When the monarch heard this, he said that his dog was an exception.
The teachers cried in with each other.
There is no doubt that Cambridge was a spiritually active place, full of theological and political debates, and it was not just the young Milton who benefited.
At Sussex College, Sydney, student Oliver Cromwell was exposed to Calvinist ideas, and in 1640 he was elected to Parliament on behalf of Cambridge by a single vote - "the only vote that ruined both the church and the kingdom." John Cleveland, a poet and a member of St. John's College, commented.
Cromwell returned in 1643 and turned the college into a barracks and Cambridge into the headquarters of the East Anglia parliamentary movement.
Most of the deans lost their official positions, and half of the academicians, more than 200 people in all, were dismissed.
After the restoration of the monarchy, the act of unification reverted to the old British rules.
The darling of the royal family was appointed as the president of the university. During this period, it was not only the Platonists at Cambridge who were able to study and teach with the steadfastness of Descartes, a liberal religious philosophical organization: "The Doctrine is the candlelight of the Lord." "Faith looked for reason for reason, and reason discovered a new religion, the natural sciences.
The Royal Club in London (1660) established professorships in mathematics, chemistry and astronomy, and the star of Isaac Newton shone brightly over Cambridge.
In the 18th century, the royal family and parliament further left the university to its own management. Teachers and students do what they want to do most: learn and have fun.
Around 1800, Cambridge's (and Oxford's reputation) suffered.
Two other universities surpassed them, especially in the natural sciences: the University of Edinburgh in Scotland and the University of Göttingen in Germany, which was founded by George II and soon became the most famous university for the Hanoverians.
In addition, in England for the first time, rivals appeared, the University of Durham (1832) and the University of London (1836), and Oxbridge lost its monopoly.
At the same time, the number of university students is rising.
The middle strata of the developed bourgeoisie needed new places of cultivation.
In the increasingly industrialized and commercialized society of the Victorian Dynasty, Cambridge also felt compelled to help and reform. Albert, a Prince of Coburg-Tower and husband of Queen Victoria, pushed for the reforms.
In 1847, the University of Cambridge elected the unpopular German as rector by a slim majority.
In 1871, another law ended discrimination against non-Anglican people. In 1861, the first married teacher was noted, indicating that the University of Cambridge was gradually moving away from the Middle Ages.
By 1860, the university had officially abolished the ban on the marriage of academicians.
Since the faculties had the right to decide on the matter on their own, it was not until after 1880 that the desire of the academicians to marry came to fruition.
This brought a small boom in architecture and babies to Cambridge.
In 1870, the then university rector William Cavendis, the 7th Duke of Devonshire, funded a professorship in experimental physics and a laboratory, both named after one of his ancestors, the physicist Henry Cavendis.
That was the beginning of the brilliant development of the natural sciences.
In the 19th century, the population of Cambridge quadrupled, with nearly 50,000 inhabitants. The spirit of the eternally young, charming Rupert Brooke, around whom beauties and wise men gathered, a world of punk races, May Day rallies and Bruley liqueurs.
Between the two wars, Cambridge was a place of joy, elegance and intellectual debate, represented by Bertrand Russell, Maynard Keynes, and Ludwig Wittgenstein. Philosophy, economics, and natural sciences flourished, and debating societies such as the student drama and moral science club, the Heletix, or the most upscale of all clubs, the Apostolic Club, flourished.
Hitler's rise to power turned these controversies into a bloody reality.
Virginia Wolfe's nephew, Julian Bell, and his friend John Conford, among the young Cambridge volunteers who died in the Spanish Civil War, had Capital in their bags.
After 1933, many university students and teachers felt that Marxism was the only admirable option.
Historian Eric Hobsbawm, a member of King's College, was a member of the Communist Party until 1990. The University Aid Committee was an aid organization that began its work in 1933, and with its help, first exiled natural scientists found refuge in Cambridge, including the Viennese chemist Max Perutz, who established the world-renowned molecular biology laboratory in 1947.
For his lifelong work on hemoglobin, Perutz was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1962 along with his colleague John Kendru. Today, the University of Cambridge has 31 independent autonomous colleges with about 19,000 students.
Some of the new colleges are purely graduate schools: Darwin College, Wolfson College, Clare School. This development began with the construction of a new university library in 1934, and by the end of the 20th century a new campus had appeared in the west of the city.
In 2009, the University of Cambridge celebrated its 800th anniversary.
In 2015, the University of Cambridge was invited to participate in the China International Education Expo.
The University of Cambridge is in fact a loosely organized consortium of colleges, each with a high degree of autonomy, but all abide by the unified statutes of the University of Cambridge, which are drafted and approved by the university's legislature and are revised annually.
The University of Cambridge is only responsible for examinations and the awarding of degrees, while the specific criteria for admitting students are determined by each college and admits its its own students.
Cambridge's 31 colleges are scattered in a small town of around 100,000 people. These colleges were built in different eras, the earliest of which is seven or eight hundred years old. Just like their architecture, they are distinctive.
Universities and colleges, while complementary, are distinct entities and economically independent. Universities are publicly owned and funded by the state, while colleges are privately owned, self-financed, and self-financed. The university is responsible for the graduate students, while the college is responsible for the enrollment of undergraduates, and the number is planned by the university.
The teaching of all students is the responsibility of the university, while the college is responsible for the life of the students and the amateur tutoring of undergraduates. At the end of each year, the university scores the undergraduate students of each college according to certain rules, and the colleges are lined up to promote competition among the colleges.
The Chancellor of the University of Cambridge is elected by the Senate of the University of Cambridge and is generally held by a respected and prestigious person in society.
The position of Vice-Chancellor is symbolic, and the Vice-Chancellor is rarely involved in the affairs of the University, and is generally only responsible for the awarding of honorary degrees and attending the University's ceremonies, although he can also advise the Vice-Chancellor and the University Administration.
The one who is really in charge of the day-to-day affairs of the university is the vice-chancellor, nominated by the University Council (Kouncil) and appointed by vote of the Cambridge Regency (Segent House).
There are also a number of assistant vice-principals below the vice-principal, who are responsible for specialized areas and assist the vice-principal in the day-to-day work.
The Regency is the highest legislative and power organ of the university, consisting of faculty members from the faculties and has about 3,000 members. They may make or amend school bylaws, statutes, vote to appoint vice-chancellors, members of university councils, and award degrees and honorary degrees.
There are two types of decision-making: the first is a simpler, consensual motion (such as the appointment of the Rector and University officers), which is usually made by a university meeting, published in the Cambridge University Journal, and passed if not a certain number of Regents members oppose it within 10 days.
If the motion is more complex and significant, it is also proposed by the proposer to publish the motion in the school magazine, then hold a public debate, and finally after the proposer has considered all the opinions, suggest that the Regency amend the proposal, and then publish it in the school magazine, if there is no opposition from a certain number of Regent members within 10 days, it will be passed.
However, if a certain number of members deem it necessary, the Regency needs to hold a vote. Voting is done by mail.
When the Regency convenes, it is presided over by the Rector or, in his absence, by the Vice-Chancellor, or in the absence of the Vice-Chancellor, by the Dean of one of the deans designated by him/her. It is usually resolved without a meeting, but four meetings must be held in June each year to approve the awarding of degrees.
In addition, if the University of Cambridge needs to award honorary degrees, the Regency also needs to meet to vote. The Senate of the University of Cambridge used to be the highest legislative body, with the sole duty of electing the Vice-Chancellor.
The Senate consists of all students or professors who have obtained a master's degree or higher from the University of Cambridge.
The University Council, known as the Senate Session, is responsible for the day-to-day administration of the University Conference and consists of 21 members, including the President (who is not generally present), the Vice-Chancellor, and 19 elected members. The 19 include 4 representatives of the dean, 4 professors, 8 other members from the Regency and 3 student representatives (at least 1 of whom is a graduate student).
The first three categories of members are elected by the Regency, while the student representatives are elected by the students.
The University of Cambridge now has more than 150 departments and research institutes, whose members are often also members of one or more faculties, and are usually responsible for the academic and research work of the University. The university's faculties and research institutes are grouped into six main faculties, each of which is made up of a number of faculties and research institutes, and has a council that oversees the teaching and research work of the different institutions. The six main faculties at the University of Cambridge are: Arts and Humanities, Biological Sciences (including Veterinary Medicine), Clinical Medicine, Humanities and Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, and Technology. In addition to this, a number of institutions at the University of Cambridge are also responsible for teaching and research at the University, including the Cambridge University Examinations Board, Cambridge University Press, and the Cambridge University Library.
In the more than 800 years of history of Cambridge University, a number of scientific giants such as Newton and Darwin have emerged, scholars of literature and history such as Bacon and Keynes have made outstanding contributions, and Milton and Byron have cultivated art masters who have pioneered the era, and 8 British prime ministers and 92 Nobel Prize winners have emerged from here, all of which have established Cambridge University's position as the center of modern academic culture in the world.
Since the beginning of the 20th century, Chinese students have been studying at Cambridge University, and Xu Zhimo's "Farewell to Cambridge" has brought us into a place full of romance and poetry, which makes us admire and reverie.
He once said with affection: "My eyes were taught to open by Cambridge, my curiosity was stirred by Cambridge, and my self-consciousness was given to me by Cambridge." ”
The strong Cambridge complex lingers.
It's a pity that the last romantic Xu Zhimo died young, he is Jin Yong's cousin, a well-deserved talent.
The University of Cambridge has cultivated many promising people for the Chinese nation.
In addition to the famous Chinese writer Xu Zhimo, there are also writers such as Xiao Qian, Ye Junjian, and Jin Yong.
In addition to the famous mathematician Hua Luogeng, there are also Zhang Wenyu, Cai Qiao, Chen Li, Wang Yinglai, Liu Fonian, Wang Hongzhen, Zhu Jiming, Wang Zhuxi, Dai Wensai, Wu Liande, Ding Wenjiang, Li Lin and other scientists. In addition, former world table tennis champion Deng Yaping also graduated from Cambridge University.
Mak Mingshi, the double winner of Miss Hong Kong in 2015, graduated from the law department of the university.
Sir Bruce, former Vice-Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, is the President of the Royal Academy of Engineering, the first Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge to be an engineer in nearly 800 years, and an Honorary Doctorate from Peking University.
Sir Bruce has made outstanding contributions to the promotion of scientific and cultural exchanges between China and the UK. He not only facilitated the Li Ka-shing Foundation to sponsor famous Cambridge scholars to visit China, established the "China Credit Fund", a special scholarship for Chinese students, but also established the "Center for China Studies", the Institute of East Asian Studies, which expanded the influence of Cambridge China Studies in the world.
On September 30, 2005, the Chinese Government and the University of Cambridge signed an agreement on the establishment of joint scholarships, planning to train 45 high-level talents urgently needed for China's economic construction within three years.
The scholarship program has been implemented since 2006 and sponsors 15 outstanding Chinese students each year for three years.
The China Scholarship Council and the Cambridge University Overseas Foundation will each contribute half of the funds to cover the students' tuition fees, living expenses and travel to and from the UK.
Speaking after the signing ceremony, Allison Richard, Vice-Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, said: "The educational cooperation between the University of Cambridge and China will be an important part of the overall cooperation between China and the UK, and it will also ensure that Cambridge will maintain its leading position in the field of international education.
We will provide the best education for Chinese students studying in Cambridge and hope to connect with more academic institutions in China. ”
Zhou Ji, Minister of Education of the People's Republic of China, said in his speech: "The UK has the largest number of Chinese students in Europe. China hopes to continue to strengthen joint training and joint research projects with leading universities such as Cambridge in order to achieve a win-win situation. ”
Therefore, I flew to England and came to London and Cambridge, of course, it was the place where Ye Chao had to take a look.
I still remember the song "Farewell to Cambridge......
Gently I go,
As I come gently;
I beckoned gently,
Be the clouds of the western heavens.
----
The golden willows on the banks of the river,
is the bride in the sunset;
Bright shadows in the waves,
It ripples in my heart.
----
Wattles on soft mud,
oily swaggering underwater;
In the soft waves of the River Cam,
I'm willing to be a water weed!
----
A pool in the shade of the elm,
It's not a clear spring, it's a rainbow in the sky;
Crushed among the floating algae,
Precipitated rainbow-like dreams.
----
Dream-seeking?
Wander to the greener grass;
Loaded with a boatload of starlight,
Sing in the starlight.
----
But I can't put on songs,
Quietly is the parting sheng flute;
The summer worm is also silent for me,
Silence is Cambridge tonight!
----
Quietly I'm gone,
As I came quietly;
I waved my sleeves,
Do not take away a single cloud.
Ye Chao is actually a genius, Xu Zhimo is gone, and he will say goodbye. Kangqiao gave him too much beauty, he was reluctant, he was nostalgic, but he had to go.
He said, "I waved my sleeves and didn't take away a cloud." Actually, he wanted to take it away, but he couldn't take it away, Kangqiao has his good and his memories, but Kangqiao is not his alone.
It's not that he doesn't take away a cloud, he takes away the memories that belong to him on the Cambridge......
"Yuncai, let's go, I'm here......" Ye Chao said with a smile.
Yes, Xu Zhimo is gone......
However, Ye Chao is here......
