I have learned math, physics, chemistry, biology many years ago. These basic knowledge help me know the world and myself better. But with time passing by I feel they are fleeing little by little from me. Since I don't come out of my way to use it, these knowledge is not water in a bucket, but water flowing through a sieve. So learn it, use it, learn it again, use it again.
As an avid student who is curious about life, I want to learn these basic knowledge once again. This time I will try to learn by using English, to kill two birds with one stone. Some one has reminded us that we should stop learning English, and try to learn anything by using it. We will gain knowledge and master English as well. Thanks to the internet, you can find English text books on different subjects or you may visit websites of open courses for free, I think 'www.khanacademy.org/ ' is a good choice.
Math:
Do you like math? or hate it?
If you were not so good at math when you were a student, why not give you a second chance!
How many kinds of math do you know?
Algebra, geometry, trigonometry, statistics and probability,...
Before learn it ,maybe we can acumulate some names of math.
Physics:
How about physics?
If I say: motion, forces, momentum, energy, electricity, Light...
When we are children ,we are certainly curious about these things, now we can still find back that curiosity.
Does these words remind you some high school memory?
Chemistry:
what words come to your mind when I say chemistry?
Atoms, compounds, ions, periodic table, chemical reactions, chemical bonds, chemical equilibrium,. acids and bases...
I have already reviewed chemistry, just a little here:
elements: a simple chemical substance such as carbon or oxygen that consist of atoms of only one kind.
The most basic unit of the elemnts is the atom.
All the elements we know are listed in the periodic table of elements.
...
One of the most obvious things about modern education is that you go through it only once. You show up every day for a number of years, get filled up with knowledge and then, once you are twentry-one or so, with the consumption that these knowledge would stay in your mind ,you get out of school and begin the rest of your life.
But you can be a student again, it is all up to you.
And I would like to share a secret with you : learning makes you younger.
很久以前在学校里就学过了数学、物理、化学、生物学等等,可是现在想来,这些知识好像都慢慢逃离了我的大脑,或者陷入了无限的黑洞无法激活。所以我想要再次学习一下,不过这次要试着用英语学习,学习知识的同时强化英语能力,可谓一举两得。这一次,我想看看是不是能把更多的知识应用到生活中,应用知识是人生一大乐趣。
