Half an hour ago, everyone was still immersed in the complex and profound classroom atmosphere of anatomy, thinking that their anatomy courses in the next three years would be so boring. 【1】
Half an hour later, the class was disrupted by three young people.
Of course, the one who plays a key role is not the silent Mattick, nor the outright Naya, but it must be Kavi. After experiencing boredom, anger and headaches, Professor Lange, who had always been cold and stern in dealing with problems, finally realized what "despair" meant in his entanglement with Kawei. 【2】
The whole thing actually started when Kavi said he didn't ask questions.
Langer has been lecturing all the time, and he really didn't ask anything. He just wants to use everyone's inertial thinking to disgust them with non-existent questions. Unexpectedly, Kawei was actually listening to the class, but his attitude was very unpleasant.
"Okay, let's start asking questions now." Lange picked up a wooden skeleton model in his hand and asked, "I just mentioned the bones of the torso. What kind of bones are these?"
"sternum."
"What about these?"
Kawei answered casually: "Behind the ribs are the vertebrae. 12 thoracic vertebrae, 12 pairs of ribs, a sternum and various joints together constitute the bony structure of the thorax."
The question is not difficult, and anyone in modern times can tell the answer.
But in this era, the illiteracy rate is frighteningly high, and medicine has just begun. It is indeed too difficult to force new medical knowledge reserves. Lange just wanted to inflict a minor punishment, so he wanted to finish with a hard question, hammer them down and get back to class.
"What part is here?" Langer touched a bump on the sternum with his finger and emphasized: "I want professional anatomical terms!"
The lesson just now only briefly introduced the names and connections of each bone, but did not explain the more detailed anatomical positions. It is impossible for ordinary students who only know how to follow the teacher's rhythm to know.
But the University of Vienna is Austria's top university, and the entrance threshold for medical school is ridiculously high. You can't be an ordinary student if you can sit here.
In such an environment, previewing, reviewing, preparing lessons in advance, and preparing for exams are commonplace. As soon as Langer asked the question, many people below already secretly said the answer.
Kawei followed their words and replied: "It's the sternal angle."
Lange frowned, feeling that his answer was affected by the classmates around him. In order to avoid these influences, and because I was extremely irritated by someone interrupting the lecture just now, I immediately blurted out a new question: "Yes, it is the sternal angle. So what is the sternal angle?" [3]
The question is strange because the answer is as simple as describing its exact location in words.
However, just such a reverse thinking stuck many people, and only a few brave ones silently followed: "Isn't it just the bump in the middle of the sternum?"
"You're right, it's a bump on the sternum." Langer confirmed their thinking, but denied the correctness of the answer, "But this is not a polo field where you laugh and scold, this is an anatomy classroom. ! Put away the vernacular that you usually use in chatting, what I want is a rigorous anatomical explanation!"
What is anatomical interpretation?
This group of students who just graduated from middle school have no such concept at all.
Looking at the class that was silent after being reprimanded, Langer said earnestly: "Anatomy is the only way for you to intuitively understand the human body. Accurate vocabulary requires long-term training. The best way to learn is to listen carefully in class and pay attention after class." Memorize it well. Some knowledge points are not enough just by looking at pictures. If you miss them in class, you will miss them. I will not waste time repeating them..."
Kawei nodded, agreeing with this statement.
Anatomy is not just about simply remembering the name of a certain part, it also requires making connections before and after, and telling the specific function of this position. Everyone teaches anatomy. Although the times are different, the difficulty of teaching and learning is not much different.
"Look at these three people. They don't pay attention in class and don't know anything about anything. How can they be doctors if their future medicine is still bleeding and getting some herbs..."
Anyway, what follows are some random thoughts that teachers only have. Just like doctors always say that patients are disobedient, Kawei feels the same way. Since the other party wants to use difficult questions to urge students to learn, there is no need for him to fight for the answer and just let nature take its course.
Besides, Naya's temper can be tolerated, so Kavi will not take it seriously.
The matter seemed to have passed just like that, and everyone's thoughts returned to the classroom.
Mattik was scolded so much that he doubted his life, and instantly became a good boy. He directly broke off the relationship with Kavinaya and sat aside to listen to the class carefully and take notes. Seeing that no one was talking to her, Naya simply lay down on the table and slept. She was very disappointed with the learning content on the first day. She would have to give her father some "feedback" when she got home.
Kawei continued to flip through the anatomy book casually. The basic concepts in the front were boring, but the surgical maps at the back were quite interesting. 【4】
No one dared to speak anymore. Lange’s voice was the only one left in the classroom, which became extremely quiet.
The course continued forward. After talking about the skull, spine, sternum, and ribs, Lange began to do some demonstrations on the model: "The skull is composed of twenty-three bones, mainly including eight brains and fifteen facial bones. The dividing line is the connection line passing through the superior orbital edge and the inferior edge of the external ear door, which together constitute..." [5]
Wow~
When everyone is listening to the lecture and the classroom is eerily quiet, the occasional sound of books turning may be nothing to pay attention to: "What I just mentioned are important test points. Please remember..."
Wow~
"It's best to underline this line with a pen to deepen your memory..."
But when it appears from time to time when it shouldn't, it will easily attract others' attention.
Wow~
There is no need to look for it at all. There is only one person in the class who is constantly flipping through the books.
Wow~
In fact, Kawei has already reduced the intensity of his hands, but he can't bear the fact that the class is too quiet and the books are new. In addition, there are only a small number of students in each class of medical school. Once discovered, the attention will be easily attracted by this abnormal voice: "I just said those are test centers, does anyone seem to have missed the place?"
Kawei realized that he was talking about himself, so in order to avoid trouble, he quickly marked the current page number and flipped forward to the part he was talking about.
Hua la la la la~~~
"I don't know what I'm doing in class..."
Langer looked at the somewhat flustered Kawei and shook his head helplessly. He always felt that this year's students were far behind the previous class: "Progress waits for no one, let's continue. The eight skull bones are one frontal bone and two parietal bones. An occipital bone, a sphenoid bone, an ethmoid bone and two temporal bones, these eight bones constitute the cranial cavity...[6]
Kawei fixed the book on the skull page, took out his notebook and started writing his own things.
Since I'm not allowed to flip through the book, I can just lie down and write my own stuff like everyone else, since I have to make up for the paper anyway.
"The fifteen facial skull bones include a pair of maxillary bones, a pair of nasal bones, a pair of inferior turbinate bones, a pair of lacrimal bones, a pair of zygomatic bones, a pair of jaw bones and a single vomer, mandible and hyoid bone. These bones consist of The orbit, nasal cavity and oral cavity that can accommodate and protect the eyes." [7]
These are things clearly drawn in the book, and each bone has multi-perspective drawings to help students remember [8]. Students only need to read according to what Lange said, and there is no need to write it again.
But Kawei’s attention was quickly focused on the paper he wrote [9] and he did not realize this at all.
This strange behavior of "while others were writing something, he flipped through the book, while others were looking at the model and listening to the lecture, but he was immersed in writing" finally made Lange explode: "What on earth are you here for? Do you think this is a library?" Or your study room? Can you stop being so lazy and keep up with the lecture? Can you be more serious?"
Lange is a well-known professor in the medical school and has been working for thirty years. Kavi really didn't want to argue with him, it wouldn't be good for anyone.
But I definitely won't be able to take this class any longer. After class, I have to talk to Dean Meadows about exempting anatomy.
All I can do now is endure it.
Langer was happy for Kawei's "awakening". He felt excited when he saw the eyes staring at him in the seat, and his enthusiasm for teaching finally returned to the usual level: "Next, let's talk about some important points of the ribs. anatomy, first here【10】
He pointed to a very shallow groove [11] under the rib model and asked, "What is it called here?"
The existence of the rib groove is more hidden than the sternal angle, and this location is not explained in detail in the book, so the venue became extremely quiet.
"This looks like a deeply dug trench, so we call it the 'costal trench'." Langer said, "This is a very important anatomical structure of the ribs, and it is a test point! First of all, we must clarify its location. The 'lower edge' of 'inner surface', these two words are very important and cannot be separated..."
As soon as the "test points" came out, everyone started to take notes. This is the kind of class Lange wants. He is serious about learning and meticulous about knowledge.
But just when he regained his senses and was about to explain the rib groove in depth, someone knocked on the door of the classroom: "Um, Professor Lange, I'm sorry to disturb your class."
The person who poked his head in was none other than Meadows. No matter how transcendent Lange was, he could not surpass the dean of the medical school. Although he felt uncomfortable in his heart, he had to give the other person some respect verbally: "You know I don't like to be disturbed in class."
"I'm looking for someone."
Lange put down the model in his hand.
Of course, Meadows was looking for Kawei. He had agreed in the letter that he would report to him as soon as possible after arriving, and then detail the details of the operation that day. But Kawei just replied a letter [11] and no one came at all. Meadows was impatient to wait, so he simply came to the classroom to find someone: "Kawei, come on, come with me."
Kawei was already impatient with waiting, so he quickly packed up his things and got up to leave.
"Dean, this is the first class. What is more important than class?" In line with his responsible attitude towards students, Lange still wanted to ask the reason.
"Does he still need to take classes?" Meadows gave him a strange look. "If he is willing, he can skip anatomy completely."
Free of charge? ? ?
Since the establishment of the University of Vienna, there must be many students who have obtained the privilege of exempting themselves from advanced studies. But medical school is completely different from other disciplines, and no one has been exempted from taking anatomy since ancient times!
Lange suddenly remembered that the school leadership had received a wealthy businessman before, and there was a lot of internal turmoil over a paid transfer student. In the end, the wealthy businessman spent a lot of money to settle the dispute and get the students in.
Although they were just rumors that he heard by chance, Lange had always been doing research in his own teaching and research room and anatomy room and didn't care about such things at all.
But now watching Kawei swaggering out of his classroom, thinking of his strange learning attitude just now, and for some reason, a strange scene of a wealthy businessman throwing a large bundle of banknotes in everyone's faces appeared in front of his eyes.
Lange could no longer control his stubborn temper: "Are you kidding? Who dares to be exempted from anatomy?"
"This is not a question of whether you dare or not." Meadows glanced at the students in the class and said, "You usually only work hard, it's time to take a look at the outside world. Forget it, class is more important now, you go to class first , I will come back to you to explain after class."
explain? Explain what? Explain how much you charged?
Pooh! nausea! ! !
"Don't explain to me, I won't listen." Langer was also stubborn, "I have the final say in anatomy, and the teaching and research office will not allow anyone to be exempted from the subject!"
"He's Kavi!!!"
Meadows emphasized Kavi's name again, and a few of the freshmen sitting in the seats finally reacted. But Langer was still confused. He never read newspapers and was unwilling to communicate with other people. He didn't know Kawei at all.
"Do you know about cesarean section?"
Lange shook his head.
"So what do you say now? I'll talk to you about these things after class." Meadows opened the door and was about to pick up Kavi.
"What a mess...I don't care who he is, I can't leave my class!"
Lange didn't know the connection between wealthy businessmen, large donations, transfer students, cesarean sections, and Kawhi. He only knew that there were students who used some unfair means to skip classes in front of him. This was a ridiculous thing that had never happened before, and he, the dignified director of the anatomy teaching and research department, really couldn't tolerate such behavior.
Because as long as there is one time, there will be a second time. How will I have an anatomy class in the future?
Kawei saw his anger. Since he had the final say in the anatomy teaching and research department, he had to leave a good impression on the other party in order to be exempted from the major: "The dean really came to me with something urgent. If the professor feels dissatisfied, then I'd better answer him." Just two questions.
One is the sternal angle mentioned before, which is the slightly forward protrusion at the connection between the sternum manubrium and the sternum body. Its sides are flat with the second rib, and its back is flat with the lower edge of the fourth thoracic vertebra. It is an important factor in calculating the number of ribs. logo.
The second one is the costal groove that the teacher was just talking about. It is a shallow groove on the lower edge of the inner surface of the ribs. It is the impression of nerves and blood vessels and is an important anatomical structure. "
After finishing speaking, Kawei did not forget to give an explanation: "An anatomy book written by the teacher specifically noted these two key points. I have read it, so I have always remembered it."
