Chapter Seventy-Six: New Topics
For most of the rest of the holiday, the group spent fishing, hunting, and exploring around the villa. During this period, UFOs and aliens were not seen, but Shirley once found a mirage in the clouds, and Shirley, who was excited, called everyone to watch it together.
The snow-white clouds reflect the lake, the forest, and even the deer drinking by the lake. Zhang Cheng is also very emotional, this is the fairyland in the clouds that people saw in ancient times. In ancient China, it was believed that immortals must be able to live in the sky above the clouds, and this is the source of inspiration.
The mirage in the clouds lasted two hours before disappearing. In addition to Zhang Cheng, everyone has taken a lot of photos, and they are ready to post them on the Internet to let people identify where the mirage is, which is also a kind of show-off.
The holiday is always over, especially my aunt, and the hotel has called several times to urge her to go to work.
Three days after leaving the Idaho Woods Vacation Home, Zhang Cheng appeared in class at the University of Nevada, as usual. Because of the holiday syndrome, most students' minds have not yet turned to the classroom, and when they get to the end of class or the restaurant, they ask each other where they went to play during the holidays, which is also a habit of Americans, thinking that they are really sorry for themselves when they don't go out to play during the holidays.
This is in stark contrast to the traditional Chinese idea of self-denial. Chinese believe in restraining their private desires. hope, in order to achieve something in the career. This is only because of the different philosophical views formed by cultural differences, and it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong, Chinese also enjoy life, and Americans also have self-denial.
Zhang Chengbao's elective courses are history and philosophy, and it is said that these two papers are easier to write, and if you usually speak more in class, you can leave a good impression on the professor, and this credit will naturally roll in - just like the school circular, good student papers also have C+.
Professors are also people, not machines, as long as they are people, they will inevitably have some free minds, and in the eyes of professors, good students write bad papers, which is an accident, and C+ should be encouraged. Usually the professor doesn't see people in class.,It's a very well-written paper.,It's a copy or a gunman looking for.,Give a D to be worthy of this paper.。
Why don't you say that there are rods and scales in people's hearts......
In terms of history, the professor's courses are divided into European History, World History, Colonial History, American History, Western Development History, Modern History, and Modern History. Philosophy is also divided into classical philosophy, modern philosophy, Western philosophy, theoretical philosophy and practical philosophy, which can be classified according to the thoughts of each philosopher, such as Ma Zhe.
The advantage of history and philosophy is that you just look at books and look up materials, and you don't have to go to the site to excavate the inverted bucket like archaeology, and you don't have to do dangerous experiments in the laboratory like physics and chemistry.
The fire and explosion in the university laboratory is just a small matter, and there are so many new people who come every year, and there are a few careless ones. It's so easy to sit in a classroom or in the library and read a book.
After a history class in the American West, Zhang Cheng hadn't even thought about where to go, when a wavy orange-red single-ponytail white woman Yanmar who seemed to be a senior shouted in the classroom: "Bruce Zhang, is Bruce Zhang there?" ”
Zhang Cheng raised his hand and replied, "I am." ”
Yanmar: "Follow me." ”
“OK?” Zhang Cheng cleaned up, ran up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The female Yanmar introduced herself: "I am Hannah, a graduate student led by Professor Nelson, and the project jointly established by you and Professor Nelson has been approved. I'm working on this with another student of Professor Nelson, Kelly, and you and Nelson, and according to you Asians, please, take care of me in the future. ”
Hannah's last sentence was still said in Japanese, and Zhang Cheng, who used Japanese English for daily use, replied casually: "Soga." "Will you take care of me in the future, I will.
Then Zhang Cheng asked: "Wouldn't it be good for the professor to make a phone call about this?" ”
Hannah: "You don't know what Professor Nelson said, Professor Nelson's cell phone is never answered, he never takes the initiative to call and text people. When you're looking for someone, you don't care if you run a few miles or drive for hours. Of course, being his student will inevitably be caught by him and sent to find someone. ”
Well, Zhang Cheng admits that people have some quirks that are unique to them, and it's nothing if they don't call.
When Hannah arrived at the newly sorted out biology lab, Hannah Zhang Cheng saw Professor Nelson sitting in a chair, enjoying the oral service of a blonde girl kneeling on the ground, and Zhang Cheng asked Hannah in a low voice, "Is this Kelly?" ”
Hannah: "No, it's a call girl. ”
A few minutes later, the call girl swallowed countless lives, Professor Nelson generously took out a hundred dollars to send the call girl away, and then Professor Nelson pulled up his pants and said to Zhang Cheng: "Now that you are old, you can only let the call girl blow once a week to solve your physical needs, you are still young, you can play while you are young." ”
Zhang Cheng: "What about Viagra?" ”
Professor Nelson sighed: "That's the problem, after seven years of taking it, my body has become resistant to that. I have also participated in the development of many drugs in my life, but I have not used them in the end. ”
As he spoke, perhaps because of the departure of the blonde call girl, another of the professor's students, Kelly, also arrived.
We met officially. I haven't started the research of the topic today, but the important thing is to determine the time and division of labor after getting acquainted with each other, because Professor Nelson still has a topic in hand and several public classes a week, and Professor Nelson can only come in the afternoons of 2, 4, and 6 times a week on this topic.
Zhang Cheng and the two graduate students naturally come every day.
Professor Nelson knew that Zhang Cheng had strong manual skills, so the experimental records and papers were completed by Professor Nelson and two graduate students, and Zhang Cheng was only responsible for hands-on.
Because of one more topic, Zhang Cheng's life is more fulfilling.
Before the project began, it was naturally procurement, and the university only approved a small part of the project funding and the laboratory - the University of Nevada, as a public university, receives billions of dollars in government funding each year, mainly on this, and the scholarship is only a fraction of the research cost.
Because Zhang Cheng had such a little finished drug on hand that he was willing to contribute to animal experiments, the first animal experiment and drug trial production were done together. Kylie and Hannah recorded two separate experimental effects.
Regarding the animals used for experiments, Zhang Cheng recommends using relatively docile animals such as rabbits or koalas, even if the laboratory mice are strong, their behavior is unpredictable. For cost reasons, Professor Nelson chose rabbits.
Two white rabbits were selected to do drug experiments, and various laboratory tests and examination tests were required before taking the drugs. After a few days of all the tests and tests, one rabbit was medicated, one was not medicated, and then the rabbit was tested again to compare.
Zhang Cheng and Professor Nelson are better, those complicated copywriting work is basically Hannah and Kelly's business, and these two foreign girls sometimes sleep directly in the lab at night. Zhang Cheng's level is also very good, if it is not for the information provided by Zhang Cheng, how can he be qualified to be a co-signer, but speaking of which, without this information, there will be no new topics, and Professor Nelson will not bring two more graduate students - American professors alone with four or five graduate students is the limit, and in terms of quantity, Chinese professors are completely victorious, each of them brings dozens or hundreds of graduate students.
Zhang Cheng always comforted himself at this time: "Science, it always needs some dedication." ”
On the third day of the white rabbit's medication, Professor Nelson also came and took out the experimental records to look at it: "The first experimental rabbit increased its appetite by 30% after the first dose, and there were no adverse reactions. Laboratory tests are none. After the second dose, the amount of food increased by 70% on the basis of the pre-medication treatment, and there were no adverse reactions. Laboratory tests are none. At 2 p.m., the third medication ......"
Hannah said, "This time we gave Rabbit No. 1 three times as much food to see how it goes. Tests are then performed and data are available, and laboratory tests are performed. ”
Professor Nelson put down the experimental notes: "Good. ”
