What you wondered-Why could old academician's class make students sleep?
In internet, there were warm comments on the phenomenon of students’ sleeping in the Great Hall of the People last night and this morning.
Reports said that the academician Wu Liangyong at the age of 92 with the highest national award for science and technology entered the Great Hall of the people supported by others and made a speech of high aspirations and practicing personally for more than 6000 new enrolled postgraduates in the capital. The speech didn’t take much time, only taking one half hour. But big pictures of the report showed that a large number of students fell into deep sleep.
Therefore, netizens accused that the teaching arrangement was unreasonable and students lacked the tradition of respecting teachers and their teaching……
In fact, it neither showed that Wu Lao’s speech was uninspiring, nor showed that students were disrespectful. There was some phenomenon unknown by most people.
What phenomenon?
The speech of one person with good cultivation would generate great assimilating force to audience. It was hard to resist for you under such a powerful assimilating force. You had to fall into deep sleep.
If you looked the pictures, the students fell into deep sleep but their postures were quite natural. They didn’t play mobile phones and whisper together. If they couldn’t receive Wu Lao’s energy, it was impossible for them to fall into deep sleep mostly.
Once upon a time, we were too obsessed with the lecture effects of thunderous applauses rising one after another. Therefore, some lecturers even let dance team and rock and roll enter classrooms. In fact, after fever, as a burst of waves went over, there was no a vestige of trails in mind. It would remain unchanged.
Then, lecturers yielded everyone’s aspiration of teaching scene, desperately getting the cart before the horse, concentrating on making audience frenzy as the lecture goal.
In fact, the comfortable mind exchanges between lecturers and audience were the best of tactics. Our ordinary lectures would do more on sense stimulation but couldn’t generate deep impression. One person with deep impression of audience must have high cultivation.
I believed that he had such a powerful assimilating force as winner of the highest national award for science and technology.
If you could listen to even one word of him, it was your fate. It was also your reward.
The natural sleep of these new enrolled postgraduates showed that they were pure. They had got the deepest baptism from the speech.
So, there were many more of Hundred Thousand Whys you didn’t know! Don't jump to a wrong conclusion!
