49, Xu Pigeon's birthday party

That night, our eldest sister Xu Gezi's birthday party was held in a small restaurant outside the school, in a luxurious private room, in addition to our four sisters, two boys, one is Liu Chenyang, the other is Li Yufeng.

I came with my third sister Jiang Feifei.

The last class of the afternoon was an introduction to the general history of China. This is the first time we have taken a class on the general history of China, although I have read Fan Wenlan's general history of China before, but there are only 4 volumes, and it only talks about the 5th period of the Sui and Tang dynasties. The rest of the knowledge of Chinese history was learned from the classroom. The textbook we used this time is a common textbook for the university, all the way to the establishment of New China, the lecturer is a very famous scholar of China's general history, she used a vivid historical story, to tell us how magical the general history of China is, containing the glory of our ancient civilization, she gave us a long list, the first is "up and down five thousand years", this book I have read, it is really a good book. Present our ancient civilization in front of us one by one, so that you can be proud and proud of it. Then it started from the "Historical Records" and went all the way to the "Qing Historical Manuscript", although we have studied several articles in the "Historical Records", the most famous "Hongmen Banquet" in the first year of high school is selected from the "Gaozu Benji", and I can still recite it, but I have not read most of the historiography works of the 25 History, let alone the "Stone" that she asked us to study, and I have never even heard of it. This course will take one academic year, but the list she has issued is enough for us to watch for three or five years, and only a complete twenty-five history will take at least three years. University courses are really not easy, especially for those of us who learn Chinese. In addition to the general history of China, we have a total of 7 courses this semester, and each course has given us a long list of books, although I am particularly interested in studying liberal arts, and reading books is also one of my hobbies, but I am still a little daunted by this long list of books.

The first-grade classes are all large classes, all of which are public subjects, all the freshmen of the liberal arts are taught in one classroom, the big elevator classroom, which can do 1,500 people, much larger than the average movie theater, and the teacher who lectures, like a star actor standing in the center of the stage, interprets her lessons to us, and she talks endlessly and vividly. We, the students, couldn't communicate with her at all, especially eye contact, facial expression. Therefore, it is more necessary for the teacher to grasp the rhythm of teaching, especially according to our mastery of knowledge, and teach students according to their aptitude, which she can't do at all. We have just come from middle school, to the university campus freshmen, this kind of large class teaching is really a little uncomfortable, we are used to twenty or thirty students, a teacher, students have any problems can communicate with the teacher, the teacher is more according to our learning situation, tirelessly draw us to focus on the difficulty, teacher-student communication is our magic weapon for learning, but also the most important means for us to master knowledge, the teacher's guidance, explanation, is the most important way for us to master knowledge.

Suddenly, we changed our learning methods, from being mainly instilled by teachers to being self-taught, and we had to learn from the strengths of others, not only to master knowledge, but also to have our own opinions, which is undoubtedly a major change for us freshmen, and we have to have a process of re-adaptation. Several public courses in the big classroom, more than 1,000 people's voices, a few people make a little movement, it will be very noisy, the learning environment can be said to be a test, you must calm yourself down, pay more attention to listen to the lectures, do a good job of study notes, go back to review repeatedly, according to the teacher's book list, from simple to complex, the original read again, in the extensive ocean of knowledge, experience the key and difficult points of this course, but also find your own wisdom halo, write the most essential part of this course, Temper your own knowledge and store it in your mind. With such a wide range of knowledge in a course, how can you cope with the exam in the future? The range of questions was too wide, and I started to lose confidence in learning.

Jiang Feifei seemed to know my thoughts, and said to me with a smile, "Don't worry, don't worry, the scope of the teacher's exam is mainly the handouts she specifies, and other knowledge is for you to refer to, university education is like this, although the teacher also explains his own views, and there are so many book lists, which is to let you have a broad understanding of the extension of this knowledge, and give you a variety of different views, so that you can judge, summarize, and refine, she will not be difficult for us in the exam, and the questions will be centered on her handouts. The difficulty of the handouts, the focus of the handouts is the difficulty and focus of the exam, which is no different from your high school exam, and these questions are objective questions, and the range of points is very wide, first of all, it is necessary to keep the paper clean and beautiful, so that you can not get a full score for each question, as for the point of view inside, there is no particularly reactionary one, how do you explain the point of view The teacher will give you a high score because of your paper face her respect. ”

I was amazed and asked, "Is that so?" If that's the case, we're a joyful way to learn, and as long as it's not difficult for us to take the exam, and there's no off-topic questions, I'm definitely sure of the exam. ”

While the two of us were discussing the problem of studying, we went back to the dormitory, cleaned up, washed our faces, and simply looked in the mirror to freshen up, and then the two of us came out together and ran to the cafeteria.

As soon as I arrived at the restaurant, I immediately became nervous, because I saw her at a glance, as well as the annoying Liu Chenyang.

Li Yufeng stood up, walked up to us with a smile, and generously stretched out his hand, "Hello two classmates, we have met again, we haven't seen each other for a week, is it the first day of class today?" Got used to it? ”

Jiang Feifei, "I didn't expect the seniors to come, it's really a bit brilliant." ”

Li Yufeng shook my hand gently, "I'm really a little embarrassed, we meet again." ”

I lowered my head and touched her hand with my fingertips, showing politeness and shyness, "I'm really happy to see my senior brother again." ”

Shen Xiaofu shouted loudly, "Two sisters, what are you still rubbing?" Today is our eldest sister's birthday, eat her well, come and do it, I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

The two of us sat down.

Liu Chenyang, "Today is a good day, you are the first day of class, first of all, on behalf of the seniors, I would like to express my heartfelt congratulations to you, you have officially started your 4-year study career on this great campus, and on this special day, ushered in the birthday of the beautiful Xu Pigeon, we all celebrate her with a cup, I wish her every year today, every year today, happy birthday!" ”

Amid the cacophony of congratulations, the crisp sound of wine glasses colliding echoed in the restaurant.

I ended the meal in a complete dizziness.

In the bright moonlight, I don't know why, the others all left in twos and threes, only Li Yufeng, and I came out of the last restaurant.
