The Long March of China’s Education
immense hardships and the daunting
challenges
The Long March
Throughout history, the great thinkers of the world have often rather romantically referred to their academic struggles as being like “war”. However, for most of them, the “war” has been purely symbolic. Real war is never romantic as it brings suffering and immense challenges.
Para.1
Read and Answer
Why does the author say “Real war is never romantic”？
How do you understand？
The Long March
In 1937, the aggression of the Japanese army brought disaster to ... and Tsinghua University were occupied by Japanese troops, while Nankai University was completely
destroyed by bombing. (Para.1S1)
occupy 占领；占据；占用
occupy oneself with sth./in doing sth.

Para.2
The Long March
What figures of speech(修辞手法) are used
Professors and students alike in the three universities made an epic
journey over a distance of more than 2,000 kilometres, most of them on
foot. Their bed was the dusty road and their roof was the open sky, often
lit up by exploding Japanese bombs. Conditions were little better once
they reached the remote and mountainous south-west part of China.
They had to live in rough buildings, packed 40 to a room, like
sardines. There were dire shortages of food, books, and equipment.
Furthermore, classes were frequently disrupted due to fierce air attacks
and often had to be held before 10 am and after 4 pm.
The Long March
Para.3
Similes（明喻） and metaphors（暗喻） are two commonly used, but easy to confuse, figures of speech. Similes compare and show similarities in typically different things. Similes usually use connecting words such as like, as, so and resemble. For example, He is as cool as a cucumber.Unlike similes, metaphors make direct comparisons without using connecting words. For example, She has a heart of a lion.
明喻和隐喻是两种常用但容易混淆的修辞手法。明喻比较和显示不同事物之间的相似之处。明喻通常使用连接词，如like， as， so和similar。例如，他像黄瓜一样冷静。与明喻不同，隐喻不使用连接词而直接进行比较。例如，她有一颗狮子般的心。

However, despite the immense hardships and the daunting challenges,
it was right in this place, over period of eight long years, that the nation's
intellectual heritage was not only guarded but fortified by the passion and belief
of the worthy academics of Lianda. It is no wonder that many, if not most, of
China's leading scholars and scientists emerged at Lianda, including the two
Nobel Prize-winning physicists, Yang Zhenning and Li Zhengdao. "Lianda laid
the foundation for every achievement I have made, Yang recalled. He still
remembers learning in a temporary classroom that had no glass in the windows.
"On windy days, we had to hold down the paper on the desk, which would
otherwise be blown away,"he said.

With the country at war, students at Lianda were not going to shirk their duty. Driven by a sense of commitment, a great many joined the army to resist the Japanese invaders and defend the honour of the nation. In fact, Lianda provided the largest number of student-soldiers from any campus in China. Of the thousands of college students from all over China who served as interpreters, one tenth were from Lianda, including the well-known translators Zha Liangzheng and Xu Yuanchong. Zha later depicted the contributions of his peers in a poem:

How do you understand the poem by Zha Liangzheng
Softly, on the hillside forgotten by all,
A misty rain falls in a gentle breeze;
There is no trace of the footprints of history;
Where brave souls once stood, breathing new life into
the trees.
《森林之魅——祭胡康河上的白骨》
静静的，在那被遗忘的山坡上，
还下着密雨，还吹着细风，
没有人知道历史曾在此走过，
留下了英灵化入树干而滋生。
Many students from Lianda
joined in the army to
defend(保卫) our country.
Many even sacrificed(牺
牲)their lives.
The Poem’s meaning
Para.5
A product of the war, Lianda is now physically gone. But it has become the
crowning glory of China's modern universities, not only because of its
prominent professors and talented students, but also because of the school's
strong spirit of perseverance and dedication. In 2017, representatives from
Peking University, Tsinghua University, Nankai University and Yunnan
Normal University gathered to commemorate the 80th anniversary of its
founding.
More than eighty years on, the priceless contribution of Lianda still needs
to be reaffirmed. It has become part of the collective memory of the Chinese
nation, with its spirit as the blueprint for all universities in China in the
modern era.

千秋耻，终当雪
中兴业，须人杰(talent)

1What difficulties did the professors and students of Lianda encounter How did they deal with these 联大的教授和学生遇到了什么困难 他们是怎么处理的
They had to travel a long distance to reach Lianda. Throughout the journey, they had no accommodation and had to survive extreme conditions.Also, the conditions in Lianda itself were very harsh. They did not have enough food and studied in rough buildings. Furthermore, their study was often interrupted by air attacks.
Post-reading
2 What is your understanding of the poem written by Zha Liangzheng
你是如何理解查良铮的这首诗的
My understanding of this poem by Zha Liangzheng is: Gently, on a neglected hillside, a misty rain falls with a soft breeze. No historical footprints remain, yet brave spirits once stood there, breathing life into the trees, suggesting a place once vibrant with history and heroism, now serene and forgotten.
In this poem, the phrases "Softly, on the hillside forgotten by all" and "A misty rain falls in a gentle breeze" are the most visually evocative. They create a vivid image of a serene, neglected hillside bathed in a misty rain and gentle breeze.

What figures of speech(修辞手法) are used
Professors and students alike in the three universities made an epic
journey over a distance of more than 2,000 kilometres, most of them on
foot. Their bed was the dusty road and their roof was the open sky, often
lit up by exploding Japanese bombs. Conditions were little better once
they reached the remote and mountainous south-west part of China.
They had to live in rough buildings, packed 40 to a room, like
sardines. There were dire shortages of food, books, and equipment.
Furthermore, classes were frequently disrupted due to fierce air attacks
and often had to be held before 10 am and after 4 pm.

“Lianda laid the foundation for every achievement I have made,” Yang recalled. He still remembers learning in a temporary classroom that had no glass in the windows. “On windy days, we had to hold down the paper on the desk, which would otherwise be blown away,” he said.

With the country at war, students at Lianda were not going to shirk their duty. Driven by a sense of commitment, a great many joined the army to resist the Japanese invaders and defend the honour of the nation. In fact, Lianda provided the largest number of student-soldiers from any campus in China. Of the thousands of college students from all over China who served as interpreters, one tenth were from Lianda, including the well-known translators Zha Liangzheng and Xu Yuanchong. Zha later depicted the contributions of his peers in a poem:

How do you understand the poem by Zha Liangzheng
Softly, on the hillside forgotten by all,
A misty rain falls in a gentle breeze;
There is no trace of the footprints of history;
Where brave souls once stood, breathing new life into
the trees.
《森林之魅——祭胡康河上的白骨》
静静的，在那被遗忘的山坡上，
还下着密雨，还吹着细风，
没有人知道历史曾在此走过，
留下了英灵化入树干而滋生。
Many students from Lianda
joined in the army to
defend(保卫) our country.
Many even sacrificed(牺
牲)their lives.
The Poem’s meaning
Para.5
A product of the war, Lianda is now physically gone. But it has become the
crowning glory of China's modern universities, not only because of its
prominent professors and talented students, but also because of the school's
strong spirit of perseverance and dedication. In 2017, representatives from
Peking University, Tsinghua University, Nankai University and Yunnan
Normal University gathered to commemorate the 80th anniversary of its
founding.
More than eighty years on, the priceless contribution of Lianda still needs
to be reaffirmed. It has become part of the collective memory of the Chinese
nation, with its spirit as the blueprint for all universities in China in the
modern era.

西南联大校歌
万里长征，辞却了五朝宫阙
暂驻足衡山湘水，又成离别
绝徼移栽桢干质，九州遍洒黎元血
尽笳吹，弦诵在山城，情弥切
千秋耻，终当雪
中兴业，须人杰(talent)
便一成三户，壮怀难折
多难殷忧新国运，动心忍性希前哲
待驱除仇寇，复神京，还燕碣
千秋耻，终已雪；
中兴业，须人杰。

2 What is your understanding of the poem written by Zha Liangzheng
你是如何理解查良铮的这首诗的
My understanding of this poem by Zha Liangzheng is: Gently, on a neglected hillside, a misty rain falls with a soft breeze. No historical footprints remain, yet brave spirits once stood there, breathing life into the trees, suggesting a place once vibrant with history and heroism, now serene and forgotten.
In this poem, the phrases "Softly, on the hillside forgotten by all" and "A misty rain falls in a gentle breeze" are the most visually evocative. They create a vivid image of a serene, neglected hillside bathed in a misty rain and gentle breeze.
