The undergraduate course of Peking University is the best in the world. Peking University gives you a platform to fly higher in the future, so make full use of these four years. The starting point of four years is after the college entrance examination. The first sentence of Dr. Li Jing, the Guangdong Admissions Team of Peking University, at the farewell party of Guangzhou Alumni Association of Peking University was "Stop traveling and enter the study state". I think we should first improve ourselves into qualified middle school students according to the syllabus, that is, several courses to be studied in middle school should be supplemented in addition to history and politics, because Peking University is a liberal arts.
The main task of entering Peking University is to learn, learn to be a man, and learn.
Learning is to master the most basic knowledge and methods of this subject, and then rely on these to learn new knowledge.
Work requires not only knowledge, but also learning to deal with interpersonal relationships. The goal of Peking University is to train leaders in all fields, but generals start with soldiers. Therefore, how to deal with interpersonal relationships at three levels ―― grassroots, middle-level and leadership.
But also have a healthy body and artistic accomplishment. It is the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique and beauty.
To do a good job in all aspects, we need to learn to arrange our time reasonably and make good use of it. Mao Zedong advocated "learning the piano". (Author Su)
Attachment: Suggestions for freshmen of Peking University in 2007.
Today's college entrance examination, after which you think you are sure to go to Peking University, you can take a look first; I'm not sure. I'll wait until I get the acceptance letter.
Before the Spring Festival this year, I took two classmates to Jinan University to meet an alumnus. He said: "If you do something half a step faster than others, your chances will be much greater than others, and the gap between you and others will become wider and wider." I think it makes sense and it's not easy to do, because people are lazy. If you want to stand out from the strong hands of Peking University, you must be half a step faster. In other words, from now on, you should demand yourself from the adults in the north and start your own journey.
1. What are you doing in Peking University?
In fact, it is to determine your own goals in life. Confucius set a goal at the age of fifteen, and you were two or three years late. I define high school as the transition from junior high school to university. University is the preparation stage for entering the society. University (undergraduate and graduate) is also the last stage of concentrated study in your life. Learning is lifelong. "You can't stop learning." Learning after college is learning while working, with work as the main task. There is no such complete time system learning. University study lays a solid foundation for future study.
Going to Peking University was put forward by the old headmaster, Mr. Cai Yuanpei: "It is the bounden duty to come for reading." "The uniqueness of Peking University students' learning is that once they wear the school emblem of Peking University, everyone suddenly has a solemn feeling of being selected. Peking University people have a * * * temperament that outsiders can't grasp, and they are shrouded in a deep sense of mission. "Peking University students study for the prosperity of the motherland, the rejuvenation of the nation and the glory of China. According to Confucius, "learning" should include two aspects: being a man and learning.
Learn to be a man, including three aspects:
1. Be a person who is not afraid of authority, power, dare to tell the truth, be willing to listen to the truth and obey the truth. In other words, "wealth can't be lewd, poverty can't be moved, and power can't be bent." "Shike, don't lose face." "The three armies can win the handsome, but the ordinary man can't win the ambition."
2. Learn to get along with others and cultivate your emotional intelligence. Zhong Nanshan said that in college, we should learn to cultivate cohesion among people, and the popular point is "good popularity". People with good popularity tend to succeed easily. When you get along with others, you should be honest with others. "Don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you."
3. Learn to survive and protect yourself. The present society is a competitive society, and we should learn to survive and develop in the competition. Be good at turning pressure into motivation. Do what you can and set your goals appropriately, that is, you can achieve it by jumping.
A person's most precious thing is life. There is only one life. No matter what environment you are in and how many setbacks you encounter, living is the first choice.
Going out for activities, all kinds of accidents can happen. When they happen, we should minimize the danger and make preparations in advance. In the wild, we should guard against snakes and wolves, and learn to identify the direction.
A person's life has political life and material life. Political life is more important. Since ancient times, no one has died in life, so we should take care of our own history. You can't protect political life with a knife and gun, you can only use the law.
Learning also includes three aspects:
1. lay a solid foundation, combine arts and sciences, the foundation of this major, and cross-disciplinary knowledge.
2. Learn how to think, cultivate self-study ability, and learn from the past. New knowledge is constantly emerging. Some of the knowledge you have learned is beyond time and space, but a large part of it can't meet the development requirements. Therefore, you should have the ability of self-study.
3. To develop a rigorous style of study, we must have a strong thirst for knowledge and always be curious.
Peking University graduates should strive to become leaders in all fields. Edison said that the most obvious sign of a great man is his strong will. I think a strong will or perseverance should be expressed as: 1. Self-control ability, can resist any temptation; Second, not afraid of difficulties and setbacks, regard it as the best opportunity to hone yourself.
To cultivate the ability of self-study, we must first develop the habit of preview, one is to understand the key points, and the other is to know the unknown. Secondly, we should listen carefully. The point is to listen to the teacher's analysis. There are two levels here, one is to understand what is said, and the other is to find the problems in the lecture. There are two aspects to this: first, the teacher has no time to explain thoroughly, which accounts for the majority. First, understanding is different, which is a minority. In a word, I want to. When reviewing, I suggest reading three textbooks, one is arranged by the teacher, the other is a book written by another author on the same subject, and the third is a postgraduate textbook. See how others discuss the key parts. Look at different examples. If you are a liberal arts student, you'd better read textbooks with different viewpoints to force you to think. Pay attention to the general review before the exam, not only to understand what you don't understand, but also to establish a knowledge network framework. There are both vertical (in the order of lectures) and horizontal (classified by content). It can compress hundreds of pages into dozens, pages or even lines. That is, the process from thick to thin is also the process of knowledge sublimation. Look at the key knowledge after the exam. Knowledge must take root and sprout, and it will not be forgotten for decades. Of course, it refers to the main knowledge of this major, not all the knowledge learned in the university. But we should integrate what we have learned. Mr. Kai-fu Lee thinks that mastery through a comprehensive study is the highest realm of learning and the most needed talent in the 2 1 century. By mastery, he thinks that he can flexibly apply what he has learned to his life and work practice, and know the truth of doing things and being a man.
Second, do a good job in four-year planning.
Four years passed quickly. Cherish every minute. Cherishing time is equivalent to prolonging life. Learn to take minutes as the unit (you can read the Seven Laws three times a minute).
First of all, you should be clear about your future career. After graduation, Peking University students can engage in research, business and politics. I think science students are mainly engaged in research, and they can also go into business. But not suitable for politics. If you want to go into politics, you should go to graduate school in liberal arts. Liberal arts students can do all three. With the development of today's society, people in politics should study liberal arts.
Different goals have different requirements. But one thing is the same, that is, the basic courses of freshmen must be learned well.
Those engaged in research must have a grade of 3.3 or above in their freshman year. Sophomore is to apply for research study. Research study can cultivate scientific research ability and innovative spirit.
You must go to graduate school after graduation, either at home or at Peking University. You can also study abroad, the first choice is the United States. Both scientific research and going abroad should strive for laboratory work (excluding science, arts and mathematics). Baoyan had better find a good tutor first. People who want to go abroad have a lot of things to do, so they should arrange the time for exams and G exams. Remember, Toto and G only need enough. What foreign countries value is your Peking University background and research ability, because no matter how good your English is, it can't compare with American or British students. Therefore, in my spare time, I study English and always read English professional books and English literary masterpieces including the Bible.
Researchers should follow the example of alumni Wang Xuan. His starting point is that Chinese characters belong to China people and should not be developed by foreigners. China people should use their own products to drive foreign products out of this country.
If it's business, you can get a master's degree at most without going to graduate school. When studying, you should accumulate social business experience and observe the market. We should use our holidays to practice in big enterprises. Your role model is Li Yanhong, who is an alumnus of Baidu.
In politics, first of all, we should be strict with ourselves, pay special attention to moral cultivation, be an upright person and become an example for Peking University students. Governing the country by virtue is mainly based on the noble character of the leader himself. It is upright and does not command; Its body does not argue, although it does not obey. As a leader, you must have both ability and political integrity. That is, the unnamed lake is "having both ability and political integrity and good health". We should also cultivate leadership skills in schools. To cultivate love, only by loving the people can we serve the people. And become a student cadre. The cultivation of leadership ability is mainly practice, and learning alone is not enough. Of course, books should be read, and they should be read well and thoroughly. Your role model is alumnus Niu Yuru.
In the choice of major, the first thing is to choose what you love, because interest is the best teacher. As long as a person loves his major, his pursuit and efforts are "bitter" to others, but he thinks they are "happy".
But you are students who have just entered the university, and you don't know enough about the majors in the university and your real interests and abilities. If your major is not what you love. I suggest you "love your choice" as much as possible, read this major well, and gradually cultivate your interest in the learning process.
If you are really not interested, you can try to switch departments in May of the following year. The transfer system is conditional. If not, you can take a double degree or minor. Not anymore. You can change your major when you are in graduate school. For undergraduates in Peking University, undergraduate education is only the foundation, because the undergraduate education in Peking University has a wide caliber and a thick foundation. It can be said that as long as the undergraduate course has a solid foundation, graduate students can learn any major.
There are three classes in Peking University, one is to choose credits, the other is to quickly understand cutting-edge lectures in various fields, and the third is to cultivate one's own ability. Three classes train Peking University students in all directions. The angle and level of each class are different, so it can be arranged appropriately.
In the first class, you must first choose a course. To take the main courses (that is, professional compulsory courses) as the main line, every semester interspersed with physical education class, general elective courses and public elective courses.
The general principle is that fewer courses are better; I'd rather be slower, but better. In a word, we should really understand the main courses we have studied.
There is a summer school in Peking University. Choose some general courses in the summer to make you more focused on the main courses.
Undergraduate courses in Peking University are divided into three categories: one is a public course, which is a compulsory course for every college student; First, specialized courses; The first is the general course of quality education. These three types of requirements are different. The second type of demand has considerable depth and breadth. You should understand all kinds of requirements and learn to distribute power.
There are three things that smart people can talk about. First of all, they must do it and concentrate on it. First, you can do it or not, with little power; One should not be done, and then there is no distribution of power. People's energy is limited, so we should make achievements. You must devote your life to the whole field.
Time is a constant, but you can divide it into complete time and fragmentary time. A lot of things can be done in a piecemeal time, freeing up energy to spend all the time attacking time-consuming things.
Third, we should make full use of the resources of Peking University.
Although Peking University is a century-old university, it has inherited the tradition of imperial academy and imperial academy in China for nearly two thousand years. The cultural background is very deep. Especially the traditional oriental culture. Some scholars say that in today's era of informationization and globalization, only by combining Chinese and Western can we become truly valuable international talents. A real winner needs both the scientific and technological rationality of the West and the mind and virtue of the East. In contrast, the latter may be more important. Because everyone is deeply influenced by eastern culture. Many of China's traditional virtues, such as the golden mean, aboveboard, caring for others, being strict with oneself and being lenient with others, can be the best guide for our pursuit of success.
The resources of Peking University are divided into tangible and intangible aspects. Tangible is the scenery of teachers, classmates, library and Peking University; Invisible is the history and spirit of Peking University, which is contained in the tangible and needs to be explored in particular.
Peking University's teachers are excellent. They all have a heart like a saint. They are knowledgeable, but they are as leisurely and unassuming as an unnamed lake. You should listen to their lessons carefully (especially the old gentleman). They have accumulated the essence of decades and often say it inadvertently. You should write it down in your notebook and benefit it for life. Strive for zero contact with the teacher. Teachers in Peking University love talents, but time is precious. They like thoughtful students and are willing to answer their questions. So don't ask low-level questions, that is, questions that can be answered by careful reading and a little thinking. Your question must be puzzling or looking for loopholes in the teacher. You can knock the teacher down and make him speechless or say, I want to think about this problem seriously. Don't be afraid of losing the teacher's face. At this time, he is very happy. He will say that I have taught a good student. Let students surpass themselves. It is the mind of a teacher in Peking University to pass on his life experience to students. Wang Xuan would rather let his more than ten patents expire, and also asked students to replace his technology of combining software and hardware with software.
Teachers in Peking University have different understandings of the same thing because of their high level. When I was studying, there was a reading class in Class Three, and the teacher guided the students to learn. I am fortunate to be guided by Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu studied at London University and Cambridge University. 1940 has been teaching at Peking University since he returned to China. He is the first outstanding mathematician in China who is engaged in the research of mathematical statistics and probability theory and has reached the advanced level in the world. He is in poor health and can't go to class. Every time I study, I stay at his house. He arranged a foreign language book, everyone read a chapter, and then spoke in the reading class. The book we read has not been read by xu teacher. In class, he is more careful than us. After the student finished speaking, he told his own experience. The original humble definitions and theorems turned into interesting and rich knowledge in his view. At that time, I was criticizing the professor's ignorance, but I saw from xu teacher that the professor's knowledge was unfathomable, just like the ocean.
You can learn a lot from unknown teachers. 1958, Peking University undertook the digital computer task developed by the Third Research Institute of the Air Force. I still don't understand why they don't go to Tsinghua, because according to the national scientific development plan 1956, Peking University manages software and Tsinghua manages hardware. Teacher Zhang Shilong of the Academic Affairs Office (who later became the first head of the computer department) was responsible for the overall design. His way of thinking is different from others. One is to use separate components, and the Academy of Sciences has developed a whole block. First, there are both electron tubes and transistors, which have the characteristics of the first generation and the second generation. When you come into contact with every teacher, you will find that some of their views are different, which is the performance that Peking University people like to think independently.
The students of Peking University are all strong players. Students in Peking University are the best institutions of higher learning in China. "People don't neglect teenagers", which is the characteristic of Peking University students. The "madness" of Peking University students is associated with brilliance. Every year, there are some wizards, geeks and geniuses in Peking University. A threesome requires a teacher. The headmaster of a famous school in Britain said (I can't remember whether it was Oxford or Cambridge) that 70% of the knowledge of students in famous schools came from classmates. So President Cai hopes that students can learn from each other. My college classmate Zhao told me that when she was studying, she asked her classmates for advice. His answer is more concise than the teacher's. 1958 when I was catching sparrows in Beijing, I was responsible for leading a team to dig sparrows. I came back for nothing two days ago. There is only one last day left. In order to complete the task, I asked my classmates who studied zoology in middle school for advice. He said that if you want to catch sparrows, you must understand the character of birds. They leave early and return late, so you can only go during these two periods. According to his opinion, go to beg for sparrows at nine o'clock in the evening and return with a full load. I summed it up as an experience. When you are engaged in an unfamiliar job, you should ask an experienced person for advice.
There are more than 2,000 international students among the students, learning from them the culture and history of this country.
The library in Peking University has a large collection of more than six million volumes, covering humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. There are many rare or rare books of China in the collection. There are also many rare books in foreign languages. In addition to books, there are non-book materials. I haven't visited the new library since it was built. Now a senior student told me that when he was a freshman, he ran all over the floor to understand the functions of each part. You need to know more about it when you enter the school.
The campus in Peking University is very beautiful. Her beauty lies not only in the beauty of scenery and architecture, but more importantly, every grass and tree in Yanyuan is saturated with the spirit and banner of Peking University, thus forming a vivid carrier of energy and beauty and becoming an "eternal landscape" of Yanyuan.
The intangible resources of Peking University are the tradition and spirit of Peking University. "This is a holy land, where the pains and pursuits of China society have been gathered and presented for more than 100 years ... From here, generations of China literati look at the world and move towards the future, sowing the seeds of civilization in this vast land with perseverance. It is not the inheritance of material, but the shaping and spreading of the soul. People living in Yanyuan will imagine me as a huge and unformed existence, that is, a unique spiritual phenomenon of Peking University, which transcends time and space and becomes the eternal soul of Peking University.
When talking about Peking University, a senior who studies the history of Peking University said that generations of Peking University people are resolutely fighting against all kinds of anti-science, anti-democracy and anti-freedom forces, and there are a group of "pioneers of constant innovation and improvement" who embody the spirit of Peking University, which constitute the traditional position of Peking University. But at the same time, there are a large number of slaves and negative traditions of slaves, which have been passed down from generation to generation in Peking University. Almost every period (moment), on major issues, every teacher and student of Peking University will face the test of choice of "being a tamed slave or a slave, or being an independent and free person". In a sense, this is a struggle between two aspects of human nature: animal servility and divinity (the pursuit of spiritual independence and dignity). In this way, the positive and negative aspects of Peking University tradition have been transformed into the inner and spiritual contradictions of every Peking University student. When the choice of independence, freedom, criticism and creation is in the leading position, it forms a bright spot in the history of Peking University. When evil forces and slaves chose to become the dominant tendency, the history of Peking University entered its own dark period. It is the struggle, influence and infiltration between bright Peking University and dark Peking University that constitutes the century-old honor and disgrace of Peking University. Ignore or cover up any party, you can't get the truth of Peking University history. Therefore, facing up to and reflecting on the history of Peking University, especially its dark side, cannot but become a painful gaze and reflection on the weakness of self-humanity and the inferiority of intellectuals.
Fourth, have a healthy body.
Health is the most precious wealth. Money can't buy health. You should work healthily for forty years, and then enjoy the last forty years happily. During college, we should lay a good foundation to make our body and mind healthy.
1. Always be optimistic.
2. Have good living habits: regular work and rest, regular life, pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and don't overeat. Pay attention to hygiene, and the dormitory should be clean and tidy. Ensure sleep time and sleep without saying anything. Don't influence others even if you don't want to sleep more.
Exercise at least five days a week for at least half an hour each time. I can't arrange exercise time today, so I jog to class and go up and down the stairs quickly. Don't just practice one or two things, be comprehensive, and give consideration to physical strength, patience, speed and sensitivity. When doing unarmed gymnastics, we must do it in strict accordance with the requirements in order to train our hands and feet to listen to the brain. Take part in football, fire and basketball. The purpose is to train your reaction ability. Facing the situation on the court, where should you kick your ball? It takes half a second to make a choice. Over time, your mind will be agile.
4. Try taking a cold bath. When President Ma Yinchu talks about the secret of longevity, one is climbing mountains and the other is taking a cold bath.
What should the verb (the abbreviation of verb) do before entering Peking University?
1. Summary of college entrance examination. The college entrance examination is the first exam in life. The whole high school, especially the third grade, you have paid a lot. It's a pity that we didn't sum it up properly. In fact, there are four courses in the college entrance examination: first, the mastery of basic knowledge; Second, psychological quality; Third, the test-taking strategy; Fourth, physical quality. These four aspects should be summarized, and all selective exams should take these four courses. Summing it up is good for study (studying abroad) and job hunting.
2. make up lessons. Mr. Zhou Peiyuan said that if young scientists want to practice their skills well, they must first lay a good foundation. And the knowledge of all subjects in middle school is the foundation of foundation. From the entrance examination of Peking University, I found that your basic Chinese skills are not solid. Most students learn Chinese only for exams and concentrate on doing problems. High marks but low Chinese level. Science students lack liberal arts knowledge, and liberal arts students do not know much about science, culture and biology. These all need to make up lessons and become a qualified middle school student.
3. Understand Peking University. Understand the history, present situation and planning of Peking University. There are many books on this subject. There is a lot of information on the Peking University Admissions Network. To understand the course arrangement of Peking University and how to choose courses. Understand the whereabouts of graduates, etc.
4. study advanced mathematics. Many departments in Peking University have to learn advanced mathematics. The purpose of looking at advanced mathematics is to understand the difference between advanced mathematics and elementary mathematics, and the learning methods are different.
5. Consolidate English and read English original works, newspapers and magazines (English movies and TV plays are also good choices). After entering the school, you should take the exam and grade. Since English is not your mother tongue, you will forget it if you don't watch it for a long time. During this time, I can sing three English songs (not counting Happy Birthday), recite five poems and read the Genesis chapter in the Bible.
6. Read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, The Water Margin, A Dream of Red Mansions, The Journey to the West, Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio and The Scholars. Take a look at three words and two beats when you are free. (Author Su)
