Chapter 156: Non-Linear Thinking
When eating in the student cafeteria in the evening, Wang Qi looked nervous because Wu Bin, who was sitting across from him, was changing his papers.
"Hmm...... There has been progress in the area of functions. Wu Bin nodded and returned the scroll to Wang Qi.
Wang Qi breathed a sigh of relief and took the roll, but his expression was still not very good-looking.
Wu Bin: "Don't be sad, continue to do more questions if you are slow to do the questions, and when you get to the college entrance examination, if you really can't improve, just use the method I told you, let go of the big questions, and concentrate on doing small questions, with your current level, as long as you can play normally, it's no problem to impact the two books." ”
"Hmm...... I know. Wang Qi nodded vigorously and began to bury his head in eating.
"Hey, why hasn't Gu Fan come down yet?" Xu Hao, who drank the last mouthful of soup, asked Wu Bin.
Wu Bin: "I guess I'm going to nibble on bread and make rolls in the classroom." ”
"Enough hard work...... Alas, I feel like I've reached a bottleneck, especially in chemistry, which really can't be pulled. ”
"Me too......" Wang Qi immediately responded.
"I kind of regret that I studied so late." Xu Hao sighed depressedly.
Wu Bin glanced at the two of them and said earnestly: "Is the college entrance examination important?" Of course it is very important, but it is more important to remember your current state, you are studying hard not only for the college entrance examination, but also to learn these high school knowledge, so that they can become your tools, so that you can learn the knowledge of the university and really apply what you have learned. ”
Xu Hao nodded after listening: "Hmm...... You have a point. ”
Wu Bin: "So as long as you can really maintain your current momentum, then no matter which university you go to, you can learn really useful things and become the foundation of your future life. ”
When he returned to the class after eating, Wu Bin's butt was still hot, and he was called out by the head teacher Chen Fang, saying that the principal was looking for him.
Coming to the principal's office with a familiar car, Wu Bin unexpectedly found that the reporter Wu Jinghan who had interviewed him before was also here.
"Hello, classmate Wu Bin." Wu Jinghan greeted Wu Bin first.
"Hello, Reporter Wu." Wu Bin greeted politely.
Seeing that the two had greeted each other, the principal on the side said to Wu Bin with a smile: "Reporter Wu came to you specially this time, and I will just help convey it, so let's talk." ”
"I'm sorry to trouble Principal Wang." After thanking Wu Jinghan and Wu Bin, they sat on the sofa together, and then asked: "Classmate Wu Bin, your report last time attracted widespread attention, and there were many more derivative reports, I have to thank you." ”
Wu Bin: "It's reporter Wu's good writing that can attract attention, thank me for what." ”
"How can I say that, without you as the protagonist, where would I go to write such a report? So thank you anyway. ”
Then just like this, thank you for coming, and after several rounds of humble past ruffles, Wu Jinghan finally said the main purpose of this time.
"I've been following you since that interview, and I've heard about ...... Did you get a very impressive result in a mock exam? ”
"It's okay." Wu Bin replied casually.
Wu Jinghan smiled after hearing this, and said, "Are you sure you want to call the score of the three mock exams above 640 points, just okay?" I'm afraid that if I write it directly in the report like this, it will make many candidates hate you with itchy teeth. ”
That's right, after the three mock exams, Wu Jinghan, who had learned from Principal Wang that Wu Bin would take the college entrance examination, immediately became curious about the results of the national champion of the physics competition, and wanted to know if the person who could learn the competition well could take care of the college entrance examination course.
However, after seeing Wu Bin's mock test scores, Wu Jinghan was completely stunned.
The total score of the three mock exams was all above 640, and the highest one even reached 645!
You must know that the total score of the Huhai mock test is only 660!
Although most people say that the mock test score is not accurate, after all, on the day of the college entrance examination, the factor of mentality is too great, but it is still very shocking to be able to get such a close to full score in the mock exam three times in a row.
After Wu Jinghan learned the news, he immediately went to find a way to check Wu Bin's results in various subjects, and found that he had full marks in mathematics, science and English, and only in subjects with a lot of subjective questions, such as Chinese, would he be deducted points.
After learning the news, Wu Jinghan came directly to Xiazhong to talk to this classmate, and if you want to know the content of this chat, it is very likely that you will be able to join the report of the top student in the college entrance examination!
In Wu Jinghan's left sentence "Oh my God! Again, "Is that okay?" In the exclamation, Wu Bin answered Wu Jinghan's every question indifferently.
In fact, Wu Bin was able to get such an exaggerated score because in the incident in the second half of the third semester of high school, the system seemed to have a particularly high score for his own examination papers and self-study four powers, and his experience can be said to be "rubbing" upward.
It only took two months for him to jump to level 21 at once, and the talent points he got after level 15 smashed on the talent page and had the effect of directly lighting up two layers.
Let Wu Bin fill all the innate skills in mathematics and chemistry in one go.
And the system also gave him a very powerful reward because Wu Bin filled all three pages of mathematics, physics and chemistry talents.
That's +5 for non-linear thinking!
To understand non-linear thinking, we must first understand what linear thinking means.
And the meaning of linear thinking is simple and simple, which is literal.
A linear, uniform, unchanging, single, one-dimensional way of thinking.
Let's take the simplest example.
When some people play backgammon, their minds only think about winning with five discs, and they don't even think about the first move.
Such a result is obviously opinion, in the case of the latter hand if he only considers connecting his own sons into five, in the end, of course, the first player wins.
There are also other examples, such as "I graduated from 985, I will definitely be able to enter the world's top 500 companies." ”
"You are from the Northeast, then you must be able to drink bars, duang, duang, duang liquor like that."
Including the proverbs: one plow, one reap these words, etc., etc......
In fact, these are linear thinking, and their unifying feature is that they cannot withstand any scrutiny at all, and they all try to interpret the non-linear real world with the simplest linear thinking.
In order to make more effective use of this thinking bonus, Wu Bin also summarized the difference between linear thinking and non-linear thinking.
First of all, from the literal understanding, the "linear relationship" means that the relationship between two elements is clear and fixed, which can be expressed by a straight line, and there is a fixed proportion between them.
On the other hand, a nonlinear relationship is that the relationship between two elements is constantly changing, which cannot be described by formulas, but can only be represented by curves, surfaces or irregular lines.
Here we can take an example from a book called "The Technology of Thinking" that Wu Bin reads to illustrate.
Suppose an apple falls from a tree in a light breeze state, applying the law of gravitation, we can calculate the speed and direction of the apple falling, where the apple and gravity are a "linear relationship"
But also in the state of the breeze, a leaf falls from the tree, applying the law of gravitation, it is impossible to determine the speed and direction of the leaf falling, because the speed and direction of the leaf fall will be affected by the size of the wind, the shape of the branch, the shape of the leaf and other factors, and the leaf and gravity here are a [nonlinear relationship]
After understanding these two kinds of thinking, Wu Bin naturally wants to make a comparison between them.
For example, the words "on paper" or "nerd" refer to those who can only copy book knowledge to solve problems, and will not make adjustments according to the actual situation, which is a typical "linear thinking"
[Nonlinear thinking] is a kind of system thinking, which can see that the elements in the system are interconnected, and the thinking path is similar to a non-planar, three-dimensional network structure.
It is this point that allows Wu Bin to weave a tighter "knowledge network", so as not to let the knowledge points easily pass through it.
Of course, this is not to say that [linear thinking] is completely bad, in fact, it also has its specialty, that is, people with particularly strong linear thinking are easy to focus on only one thing, unlike people with developed non-linear thinking who are always "evenly wet"
Therefore, how to balance the two kinds of thinking is also a very important point.
After thoroughly analyzing the two types of thinking, Wu Bin found one thing, that is, the vast majority of people are more accustomed to thinking in linear thinking.
As for the reason, it is that human beings prefer to do things regularly and will have a greater sense of security.
That's right, a sense of security.
Human beings' need for a sense of security is completely engraved in the bones, to be precise, it should be engraved in the genes, everyone likes a straight line with certainty, not an uncertain curve.
As for doing things regularly, it's even simpler.
This can be proven in all fields, including science, where it is almost impossible to find a triangle, a square or even a geometric figure in the natural environment, but human beings have constructed geometric shapes for a sense of order and applied them to mathematics and art design.
This is a prime example of the brain's preference for simple structures, its search for order in the complex world, and its aesthetic pleasure between regularity and irregularity.
Our quest for order stimulates the creation of art, and at the same time influences our understanding of the non-linear world.
Anyway, the summary is not to be with me bells and whistles, the square is square, the circle is round, how good!
……
Now that non-linear thinking has improved, Wu Bin's ability to accept knowledge and use them cross-wisely has improved by leaps and bounds, and he will no longer be bound by rules and regulations.
And he also tried to use this thinking to develop a graphic pedagogy.
Because he realized that words are actually a kind of linear thinking, after all, language and words can only be arranged in a logical order, which is a linear relationship.
Graphics, on the other hand, are closer to non-linear thinking, which can concentrate all elements and connections on the same surface in one go, breaking through the linear track of time and logic, and allowing you to see the whole picture at a glance.
It's like using words to explain the power rule, which is not as easy to understand as a power law distribution map, and how to make the coverage of this graphic teaching method larger, is something that Wu Bin is still studying.
