It was a rainy day yesterday. It rained from morning till night. Unlike today, the sun is shining outside the window. Fortunately, the kindergarten was temporarily adjusted yesterday, and Zhu Zhu's graduation ceremony was postponed to today, because there was serious water accumulation in front of the Yuhuatai Youth Activity Center where the ceremony was held. In fact, water accumulation is only one factor. If you think about rainy days, the ceremony will definitely be inferior. At least whether fireworks can be set off at night is a question mark.
Zhu Zhu woke up in the morning and ran to our room to play with us. Suddenly Zhu Zhu asked, "Dad, do you know what a hibernating animal is?"
I thought about it and said, "There are bears, frogs, snakes and …" What else? I can't remember at the moment.
Zhu Zhu looked at me and reminded me, "Dad, there are bats."
Bat? I know it is a mammal, and I remember that mammals don't hibernate. I said, "Zhu Zhu, bats don't seem to hibernate." Mother echoed the voice.
Zhu Zhu said urgently, "Bats hibernate. They hibernate upside down. In the children's encyclopedia that grandpa bought for me. If you don't believe me, I'll find it for you. " Then he knocked out.
I said at the back, "Don't look for books. Dad will help you check online. "
Zhu Zhu said from a distance, "Then let's race to see who can find it quickly!" " "
Of course, I am faster, because the computer is always on. I just need to type the word bat in Google, and I can see the answer when I enter the car. Zhu Zhu is right. Bats are hibernating animals.
Mother boasted, "Zhu Zhu is really amazing." He is a doctor of science. Today, he taught his mother a new knowledge. Bats hibernate. I didn't know it before. "
Zhu Zhu smiled proudly.
Later, I thought about it. My understanding that mammals don't hibernate is really ridiculous. I mentioned earlier that bears hibernate, but they are also mammals!
The title of "Doctor of Science" given to Zhu Zhu by his mother is still very appropriate. Zhu Zhu seems to have many scientific problems to study with us.
In the morning, my mother, Zhu Zhu and I went to the Jinling Library in Hexi to borrow books in the rain. On the way, Zhu Zhu asked, "Dad, where did the dog come from?"
It's really surprising that Zhu Zhu started to explore the origin of animals. I hesitated and said, "The ancestors of dogs seem to be wolves. It was our old ancestors who domesticated wolves into dogs. "
Zhu Zhu asked again, "Dad, where did the wolf come from?"
I said, "That evolved from lower organisms."
Zhu Zhu said: "I know, just like frogs evolved from tadpoles with long tails."
I smiled, it was nowhere to be found, but I didn't say anything.
But Zhu Zhu's problem didn't stop there. He asked again, "Dad, where did the lower animals come from?"
I can't talk. This question is the origin of life. It's a long story This can be traced back to billions of years ago. This is not something I can make clear here in a few words. I said, "When you grow up, you will know the answer after reading the book."
Unexpectedly, in such a rainy day, in such a rainy day when there is serious water accumulation on the road and many cars break down, there are quite a few people going to the library. There is a long queue of cars and there is almost no room. Zhu Zhu didn't finish reading three of the four books he borrowed last time, so he needs to renew them. He can only borrow one new book. I chose a book about astronomy for him, The Mystery of the Starry Sky. Our doctor of science needs to expand his knowledge.
On the way back, I lamented that Zhu Zhu knows a lot of scientific knowledge, considering that I am still ignorant at this age. Mother proudly said, "Let Zhu Zhu tell you another one. Zhu Zhu, you tell dad, is the man or the woman first in the world? "
Hehe, this is an old question like "which came first, the chicken or the egg". I smiled and asked, "Zhu Zhu, did you say that there was a man or a woman first?"
Zhu Zhu replied without hesitation: "There was a man first."
I was surprised and asked, "Why?" I think Zhu Zhu will probably say that a man needs to provide small seeds when he is pregnant and has children, which he already has.
Zhu Zhu said: "Because it is a woman made of a man's spine."
I laughed, and my mother couldn't help laughing. Zhu Zhu: Oh, our man has a spine in his body. If it is really used as a raw material for women, then we men are "invertebrates" and are 100% inferior animals. However, Zhu Zhu's inference is correct. Since women are part of men, of course, men come first.
Mom corrected at the side: "Zhu Zhu, not the spine, but the ribs."
Zhu Zhu quickly changed her mouth and said, "It's a woman made of men's ribs."
I said, "Do you think the first person in the world is a man or a woman?" In my opinion, this question should be the same as the last one.
But Zhu Zhu replied, "It's a woman."
I'm beginning to doubt again. I don't think we told Zhu Zhu about Lucy, an ancient human fossil in East Africa-she was the first person and woman recognized by archaeologists 3.2 million years ago.
I asked, "Why?"
Zhu Zhu said, "Didn't the goddess of mending heaven say that she made people? But Nu Wa is a woman. "
Haha, I didn't expect Zhu Zhu to find the answer here. It seems that Zhu Zhu is not only a doctor of science, but also a doctor of mythology. I think it's ridiculous for Zhu Zhu to infer that there was a man first from western mythology-he didn't regard the God who created the first man Adam as an adult, but in China mythology he regarded the fairy Nu Wa who created a man as a human being, thus inferring that the first man was a woman. Hehe, it's really different logic between East and West.
