Chapter 44 Lake
The class schedule of the new-style schools is quite different from that of later generations.

In later generations, the first and second classes were often liberal arts subjects such as Chinese, English or history. Mathematics, physics and chemistry should be arranged at the back, closer to noon. The reason is easy to explain: people's memory is better in the morning, making it easier to remember. .

In this new-style school, it's the other way around. Instead, science subjects come first. The first and second classes are basically all math, physics and chemistry. The reason is that you feel energetic in the morning and have strong logical thinking.

Except for mathematics, physics and chemistry, most of the remaining courses are English, and then there are small subject courses such as music and physical education. However, the amount of Chinese courses has been reduced to the point where it is comparable to these small subjects.

If it hadn't been for the fact that since the middle of the last century, Westerners had used artillery to open up the country, and even in just a few decades, even the small island countries in the East could oppress the Chinese people, this move would inevitably arouse people's anger and shout that this is Judgment and departure from the Tao.

It is normal that the subjects of the New School Chinese Language are not ranked very well. After all, the Chinese people in this era are almost in an extreme state of inferiority.

Various treaties, reparations, and cession of territory.Trade not only increased the burden on the people, but also had an extremely heavy psychological impact on them.

In this case, start to deny everything in the past.

But such words can never be said, until...

The famous Mr. Lu Xun made a depressing statement in his 1925 "Must Read for Young People":

“I thought I should read less—or not at all—Chinese books and more foreign books.

When I read Chinese books, I always feel that I become quiet and disconnected from real life; when I read foreign books - except for India - I often get in touch with life and want to do something. "

There are many people who agree with this statement, and even more who are against it. But if it were an unknown person, I am afraid that they would be unanimously opposed and labeled as a traitor.

Amid criticism and abuse, Lu Xun once again expressed his views in the article "Written Behind the Grave" the following year:
"Last year, I advocated that young people should read less Chinese books, or not read Chinese books at all. This was the truth gained at the cost of a lot of pain. It was by no means a pleasant talk, a joke, or an angry statement."

As the vanguard of advocating Western studies, the New School School did not directly ban Chinese language, which was considered a very "conservative" measure.

……

Teacher Gewu was wearing a pure black tunic suit, with his sleeves rolled up, Western-style black trousers, a pair of hard-soled black leather shoes, and walked in with a thick book in his hand.

As soon as he arrived, the originally noisy classroom immediately became quiet.

Judging from his face, he is probably 30 or 40 years old. It is difficult to guess the age of a man in this age group just by looking at his face.

From a purely logical point of view, Bao Guowei still guessed that the teacher was in his thirties. After all, it was not long ago that new studies were taken seriously, and older teachers of Western studies were probably even harder to find than i Cat Bear.

Teacher Gewu's face looks a bit fierce, with dark brown skin, a square face, a sharp outline, and small eyes, but he looks very energetic.

The teacher strode up to the podium and threw the book down heavily on the table, making a dull "dong" sound, like a small hammer hitting the students' hearts.

He put his hands on the table and slowly looked around the school, just looking at it without saying a word.

This move made many students feel bad. Could it be that he was another very strict teacher?

There is already a bald man who is punished for copying at every turn. If there is another strict teacher, life will be difficult in the future!

"Chen Jinhua, stop eating. The new teacher is not easy to mess with. If he catches you, you will be finished!"

Guo Chun secretly poked Chen Jinhua's waist with his finger under the table. At this moment, Chen Jinhua was still lowering his head to eat, intoxicated by the delicious taste of hawthorn slices.

After being reminded, Chen Jinhua suddenly raised his head and looked at the podium, and found that Teacher Gewu was also looking at him. His heart suddenly became cold and he did not dare to chew the hawthorn slices stuffed in his mouth.Fortunately, the teacher didn't pursue the matter and only stared at him for a second or two, then turned to "put pressure" on other students.

"It's over, it's over. There's Bald Shen in front of me, and there's Teacher Gewu in the back. Life will definitely be difficult in the future, and the other teachers haven't shown up yet. I want to change classes..."

Lu and other men had just gotten rid of Teacher Gewu's "pressure gaze" and gently pulled the bangs hanging on their foreheads, complaining in their hearts.

She is a new student, and her family has hired a private tutor. She has known since she was a child that she has no talent for science, and she is like a chicken in the same cage. She has to solve an ordinary linear equation in two variables for a long time.

Yesterday, she met Shen Tuzi, the arithmetic teacher who was always punished for copying, and she felt that her future school life would be difficult, and now she met such a teacher again.

Especially when she heard that studying objects was more difficult than arithmetic, she couldn't help but feel despair about the future.

"It's over, it's over! I've read the Gewu Book, it's full of Western texts, but it turns out he's a strict teacher, it's over, it's over!"

Yuan Xiaofang thought painfully while holding her head.

"It's over. I'm not going to have a good life in the future. Look at his thick arms, and then look at his face. He will hit people often! My life is at stake!"

"Why go to this new-style school?"

Many other students had similar thoughts in their hearts, and they had already determined in their hearts that this was a strict teacher, maybe the kind who loved to hit others.

"Guo Chun, do you know this teacher?"

Bao Guowei asked quietly. After all, Guo Chun was a repeater and knew much more than the freshmen. For example, he was very familiar with Mr. Shen.

And according to what he just said to Chen Jinhua, "This new teacher is not easy to mess with," his tone was very firm, and it seemed that he knew this teacher.

"His surname is Song. I heard that he returned from studying in the West and is still a high-ranking official in the Education Department. Anyway, the director of the Political and Education Department has to greet him with a smile when he sees him."

"There was a student who talked back to him. The teacher didn't even have to say anything. As soon as the Political and Educational Office found out, he was immediately expelled from the school. At that time, many people were hired as guarantees. The Political and Educational Office didn't hold back at all. "

Guo Chun put his hands on the table, covered his mouth, turned his head slightly, and replied in a low voice. Mr. Shen didn't even pay attention to him, but he seemed a little scared of this teacher.

……

Mr. Song glanced around for a long time. The atmosphere in the school became more and more dull. Everyone stopped whispering and the sound of needles became audible in the classroom.

After a long time, Mr. Gewu, named Song, cleared his throat heavily and finally spoke. He did not introduce himself first, but went directly to the topic. His voice was rich and full of energy:

"The study of things is the top priority of the new school of education, and will also be the key development direction of national education in the future. Our country is currently extremely short of outstanding talents in Western studies."

"Not only our country, but the entire world is currently very short of talents who are proficient in gewu. If you can learn gewu well, there will definitely be a place for everyone in the future."

As soon as Teacher Song opened his mouth, he talked about the situation in a very big way, directly rising to the level of the country. No wonder Guo Chun said that he was a senior official in the Education Department.

"The Education Department discussed new regulations in October this year. Anyone who can rank first in science subjects, including but not limited to physics and physics, will not have to repeat the grade no matter how bad they are in other subjects."

As soon as this statement came out, some repeaters, including Guo Chun, were a little shocked.
