A bouquet of time pays for bitter tea.
In the past, the impression of Southwest Associated University only stayed in the joint universities of Peking University, Tsinghua University and Nankai University during the Anti-Japanese War, which only existed for eight years but cultivated several Nobel Prize winners and two bombs and one star meritorious service medals. This book has given me a further understanding of Southwest Associated University. For this reason, I also searched for the 3D restoration of the real picture of the Southwest Associated University, which is unimaginable that the Southwest Associated University is composed of a dormitory of 40 people, a canteen without chairs, a library with only more than 6,000 books, and an adobe house and thatched-roof classrooms.
What touched me deeply was the academic style of Southwest Associated University. The rigor, freedom and liveliness brought by Tsinghua University, Peking University and Nankai University are all reflected, and the soil brought by freedom allows teachers and students to grow freely is more prominent. The teachers and students are very individual and talented, Mr. Wen Yiduo's lectures are very infectious, and he even connects the late Tang Dynasty poetry with the paintings of the late Impressionists, even if it is a rather boring topic, it can make people feel a kind of beauty of thought and logic; Mr. Zhu Ziqing's lecture language is unpretentious, but very strict and systematic; Mr. Shen Congwen's lectures are divergent and elusive, and listening to Mr. Shen's lectures, you need to learn to "take one corner and reverse three corners" ......
As for students, I used to think that students would work grades, but this is not the case. Even in such a difficult era, when students go to the air-raid shelter to "run the alarm", they will bring bridges, books and even take the opportunity to fall in love, and the couplet "Geometry of Life, Love Triangle" can be pasted at the door of the air-raid shelter, which is quite interesting. The usual entertainment activity of the students of the United Nations University is to go to the teahouse, and some people even eat three meals a day and wash in the teahouse. Reading, writing, talking, and making friends, the small teahouse has become the spiritual and social bond of the students of the United Nations.
Even a literary giant like Wang Lao has the experience of copying classmates' answers, failing to take the make-up exam, or even postponing his graduation. But he always laughed it off, calling himself "quite a crooked talent", and even when he couldn't find a job, he gladly accepted the invitation of his companions to teach at a middle school that had been renovated by the temple. This kind of vision and perseverance will always be what I yearn for. I hope that many years later, looking back on the past, I can also calmly say "the past is like a dream, what has been more than a long time, a beam of time to pay for bitter tea".
