Day 2:MindMap
附加安妮老师的逻辑思维导图
Day 3:
(1)心得：
The first day,看到老师的建议是，阅读文章大约30min,单词查阅45min，原以为follow Annie老师的方法可以高效的完成task，however too young too simple,查阅单词用了3个小时左右的时间。生词量大于20，但每个单词都查阅也不是一个高效的方法。想摘取英英释义，改变只看中文意思的思维，All things are difficult before they are easy.接下来一个月的训练希望能坚持and more carefully学习，扩展词汇，延伸出更多分支。
The second day,思维导图的整理也是耗费了一下午的脑细胞，先参考安妮老师的逻辑思维图，自己尝试完成作业后，再借鉴安妮老师的图，发现很多细节上还是没有做到位。在时间序列内容的安排上，自身更注重将科学家的发现列入逻辑中，但很多小细节，实验，并没有列举上去，安妮老师对the scientific method的整理也更加深入。keep on going
（2）对《科学简史》的心得
INTRODUCTION部分中，讲述了亚里士多德relyed on empirical thoughts and argument，and did no experiments，因此a number od his thoughts were wrong,however nobody douted it.直到伽利略推翻了亚里士多德的想法。紧接着讲述科学实验的方法，科学是建立在reasoning,observation and experiments的系统上，逐渐发展出一系列的理论。Science is an ongoing search fur truth-a perpetual struggle。埃德蒙多·哈雷 Halley, Edmond在1682年发现彗星，预测它的回归，也正如他所料。卢瑟福的“金箔实验”提出了原子结构模型，Nicolaus Copernicus哥白尼的日心说，罗伯特·波义耳(Robert Boyle）的The Sceptical Chemist标志着近代化学的开始，达尔文的重力学说，电流，电子……新兴物体的发现伴随着一个又一个实验，前人的理论，后人的disprove。推翻人们long-held思想及其不容易，开拓新领域，一步步奠基新时代的诞生。如今的时代，DNA克隆，电脑，互联网的广泛应用，深入研究仍在持续。但这不是终点，谁能说未来就只是如今这个模样。或许有比互联网更厉害的role出现，生物学的发展可以给人们带来更多的希望，或许人们还能重新证明过去的Theory。正如文章结尾所说，It seems likely that there will always be more questions than answers,but future discoveries will surely continue to amaze.
知识浅薄的我难以彻底领悟科学的奥妙，现在仍没有研读彻底《科学简史》这篇文章。正如安妮老师所说“这类文章恰恰是what we need to know, it talks about our understanding as mankind of the world we live in.如果对基础物理世界不了解，你对抽象的概念也是空中楼阁”。科学类的文章读来枯燥，确也是我们极其缺乏的知识领域。因为对其不感兴趣所以对其避而不见，不愿深入精读。I think we should broaden our eyes.要逃出象牙塔，接受更广大的世界。
（3）群消息摘抄
Rutherford scattering 那个实验，后来发现大多数直线居然穿堂而过，不带走一片叶子。人们以前以为原子和原子挤挤挨挨地呆在一起，于是Rutherford 用alpha粒子轰金箔，想要判断粒子穿过薄薄的金箔原子后的偏离角度，因为他移动了一下接收alpha例子的荧光板，发现了原子核的结构。说明金箔大多数地方是空的。
理科不好学所以学文去了？所以我们的人文总是这么低迷，因为大家潜意识里把它放在智力金字塔的下面，这是完全本末倒置的。如果不喜欢抽象思维、逻辑推理，文科也是学不好的。为了追求升学率一手改变了人家的认知结构和人生：）
Chinese culturealways wants to jump ahead and transcend from the material body the soul/spiritresides in and explore what is going on in a metaphysical world. But thewestern philosophers descended from celestial considerations to the matter ofmaterial structure over time.我们一路形而上，最后被几根鸦片压垮，他们一路形而下，造出了原子弹。
If you see excellence, try to observe it as closely as possible, you will grow to be like that。
要多用英文的思维方式思考。想达到这一点，第一步：抛弃英汉词典。用英文思维理解英语，而不是靠汉语翻译。
我觉得最大的学习秘密就是模仿
