Chapter 13 Section 12

An Jie compared her and Mu Yahua's homework answers carefully, and she couldn't figure out why the old seal deducted five points from her. It came out, but the idea is hers, and the steps are also hers. How can Mu Yahua get full marks, but she can't? She originally wanted to print it out, but those formulas were too troublesome to type. Mu Yahua said that she typed it with a software called LaTeX. An Jie looked at the instructions of LaTeX. It's dozens of pages thick, and it's hard to read. DR.CANG didn't ask to print it out, so she was lazy and wrote it by hand.Does Lao Yin mean to ask everyone to print it out?Then why don't you say it?

As if he had done something wrong, Mu Yahua apologized and said: "I'm sorry, I don't know why 'Suji' deducted yours but not mine, I have no relationship with him—" "It's not your fault, it's the 'vegetarian chicken'." Fortunately, only five points were deducted. I heard that there are six assignments in this semester, accounting for 50%. Bar. She spent a lot of effort on the second homework, typed it out with LaTeX, and made it into a PDF file. She thought it was very beautiful, and she must like the old seal.Mu Yahua and Wu Gang still copied hers. After the homework was corrected and sent out, she took a look at both Wu Gang and Mu Yahua's. Maybe Wu Gang was careless and copied some by mistake, and the handwriting was also very serious. It was scribbled, so Wugang only scored 90 points twice.But Mu Yahua got another 100 points this time, and she was actually deducted 10 points, making her look like the careless Wu Gang, she was almost dizzy with anger.

She said angrily: "There is something wrong with this 'vegetarian chicken'. Points are deducted without saying anything. I have to find out why he deducted points, otherwise he will deduct points for the same reason in the future. I get points, and the more I deduct, the more I get." Mu Yahua said: "Ask him, maybe he made a mistake. If you ask, he may give you back the points. I do this all the time as a TA. If you are undecided, don't deduct it. Students think that I have deducted points incorrectly, so I usually give them some points back, knowing that being a student is not easy.” Mu Yahua winked and said, “A boy, if a girl asks him for points, he will definitely give it.”

An Jie decided to ask the "vegetarian chicken" what was going on, but she knew that she couldn't take Mu Yahua and Wu Gang's homework to the "vegetarian chicken", that would be tantamount to throwing herself into a trap, so she asked She only took her own homework twice, and ran to him during the "vegetarian chicken" OFFICE HOUR. The office of "Vegetarian Chicken" has a special smell of Indian food. I don't know if it is garlic or some other seasoning, but it is a strange kind anyway.If it wasn't for the deduction of points, even if she was killed, she wouldn't want to enter that office to make her nose suffer.She took out both answers and asked why "Vegetarian Chicken" deducted her points.

"Suji" didn't seem to feel her femininity at all. She took her answer with a sullen face and looked at it for a long time. She didn't say why, but said that I think your answer is incomplete and the description is not clear. The title said, "SHOW YOUR WORK", but you didn't SHOW. She argued hard, saying why didn't I show?I'm here, here, isn't it SHOW?She can't wait to say that Mu Yahua's is basically the same as mine, why hers is included in SHOW, but mine is not?She didn't like to say that, so she said vaguely, I saw that some people did the same thing as me, why didn't they deduct it, but mine did?

"Vegetarian Chicken" asked, who didn't deduct it? She couldn't answer again, because she couldn't expose Mu Yahua, right? "Suji" looked at her answer for a while, and still insisted that she didn't have a show, and put on a posture of chasing customers, saying that if you disagree with my opinion, you can go to DR.CANG. In a fit of anger, she really ran to find DR. CANG, and when she got to his office door, she knocked on it a few times.After typing, I remembered that DR. CANG said that if you don't find him at OFFICE HOUR, you need to make an appointment in advance.Now it's not his office hour, and she didn't make an appointment with him in advance, isn't it a scolding?She was about to sneak away, but DR, CANG had already opened the door.

It was the first time she saw him standing so close in front of her, she couldn't help feeling flustered, and stammered: "I'm ---sorry. I know ---I'm not office hour ----I mean ---you are not office hour ----I mean--- Maybe I ----" "It's OK. Come on in!" She had no choice but to walk into DR.CANG's office. She didn't know whether to close the door. She was hesitating there when she heard DR.CANG say: "Just leave it open." She thought, how does he seem to be able to read other people's minds?too terrifying.She saw that DR. CANG had already sat down on the chair behind his desk, and was pointing to the chair opposite his desk to tell her to sit down.She sat down quickly, but for a moment she didn't know how to say the question she wanted to ask in English, so she asked timidly: "Can I——can I speak Chinese?"

DR.CANG smiled and said: "Better not." Then he explained a few words in English, as if saying that it is best not to speak Chinese to him at school, otherwise students who speak other languages ​​will think that Chinese students are in his class The above is privileged. She had no choice but to bite the bullet and go into battle.She put her homework twice on DR.CANG's desk, and began to describe incoherently how she found "Vegetarian Chicken" just now, and the reason why she came to find the teacher, saying that she didn't care about the points, nor did she want to Sue "vegetarian chicken", just want to find out where I went wrong, so as not to do it again next time.

Her mouth was parched, her whole body was hot, and she felt that her face was sweating, and it seemed that she was about to come out with snot.She didn't have a tissue to wipe her face and nose at hand, and she was in a panic, afraid that the snot would really come out. DR. CANG pushed a tissue box on the table towards her, and began to read her answer. She quickly grabbed a paper towel and kept wiping her face and nose. Sure enough, there was a lot of sweat on her face, and a paper towel was quickly wiped wet. She grabbed another paper towel and put it down. . DR. CANG raised his head, looked at her for a while, and then looked at a thermometer on the wall, as if he didn't understand why she was so hot.

Seeing that he had noticed her sweating, she felt even more flustered, and took out a stack of bound papers from her schoolbag, no matter what kind of paper it was, and fanned it gently like a fan. DR.CANG went to the wall, turned down the air conditioner a bit, went back to the table and sat down, comfortingly said: "It's going to be cooler soon." She kept saying: "Thank you. Thank you." DR.CANG looked at her answer for a while, and said in English, you did a good job, no points will be deducted for this question.Put your answer here first, I will ask SUJI to read it again and ask him to return the deducted points to you.

She stood up, said Thank you a few times, and fled DR.CANG's office in a flash. After finishing this matter, she felt very happy. It seems that there are some things that you can't do without reason. If you don't fight for it today, you will lose fifteen points in vain.Now that the matter is finally cleared up, I believe that "Vegetarian Chicken" will not dare to buckle blindly next time. When she got home, she ate dinner, did homework for the algorithm class for a while, and then came to prepare for tomorrow's presentation. It was a software engineering class, and every team member was required to present.Mu Yahua had already made slides, and printed a copy for each person. Several people divided the work, and each person gave a few slides, and she was assigned six. Mu Yahua is very good at making slides, try to avoid long paragraphs of text, only outline a few key points, use figures, tables, graphs, pictures, etc. as much as possible, because DR. Those who write all the words on the slides and read them at that time will not get high marks, because such a presentation, first, it is very dry and no one likes to listen to it; second, it also shows that the speaker does not understand what he is talking about. They are all scripted. Therefore, the slides made by Mu Yahua are in line with the requirements of DR.BLACK, but this requires the presenter to remember what they want to say, what those charts are saying, and what those pictures represent. Not only must they understand it, but they must also be able to Speak clearly to the audience.When I was at school today, An Jie discussed her slides with Mu Yahua, and Mu Yahua explained each one to her in detail, and she wrote a lot of notes on that piece of paper for tonight Read it a few more times, talk about it a few more times, if you don’t talk about a blockbuster tomorrow, at least you won’t hold back the group. But when she opened her schoolbag to get the papers full of notes, she couldn't find them.She panicked and called Mu Yahua's home, wanting to ask Mu Yahua to pass on the document of the presentation to her so that she could find a place to print it out, but Mu Yahua was not at home, and even if she was at home, she would still be unable to print it out. There are no more notes, so I have to discuss it with Mu Yahua again. She thought carefully about where those papers would be thrown, and finally realized that they must have been thrown in DR.CANG's office. After she took out the papers and fanned them, they might have been placed on DR.CANG's desk up.She thought he must have been thrown into the trash can as waste paper, but as long as he didn't use the shredder to shred it, he should be able to get it back from the trash can, because the trash cans in the professors' offices are all cleaners It was thrown away, and the building seemed to be cleaned every morning. She looked at her watch, it was past eight o'clock in the evening, she didn't know if DR.CANG was still in the office, she only had his office phone number, not his home number, if he went home, she couldn't get in touch him. She quickly found out DR.CANG's phone number, and dialed nervously, but no one answered, and after a few rings, she was asked to leave a message.She hung up the phone in disappointment, and after a few minutes, called again, but no one answered, and asked her to leave a message.She knew that it was useless to leave a message now, and DR. CANG would only hear it when he came to work in the daytime tomorrow, but she still left a message, stammering and confused, and she didn't know what he was listening to. I don't understand. Then she called Mu Yahua again, but Mu Yahua was still not at home.She had no choice but to send an e-mail to Mu Yahua, tell her about the lost NOTES, and ask Mu Yahua to call her after seeing the e-mail. As soon as she sent the email, she heard the phone ring. She picked up the receiver and heard DR.CANG's voice: "ANN?" "YES." DR.CANG said in English, I heard your message, and found the few pieces of paper you left here, and I will send it to you now. In a panic, she even came out in Chinese: "No, no, I'll come and get it myself—" DR.CANG laughed and switched to Chinese: "It's dark, it's not convenient for you to come here, I'll send it to you." She didn't know what to say, and said countless "thank you" in one breath.It wasn't until she put down the phone that she realized that she didn't tell DR.CANG where she lived.She picked up the phone again and called DR.CANG's office, but no one answered, probably DR.CANG had already left the office. As soon as she put down the phone, she heard someone knocking on the door. She opened the door and saw DR. CANG standing in front of the door, holding a thin stack of papers in his hand, probably sweating a little from climbing the stairs.She blurted out: "So fast?" "It sounds like you're in a hurry—" She was moved for a while, wow, the majestic Professor CANG, who usually needs to be looked up to, now personally delivered a few pieces of torn paper to her, and was sweating from running, how could she not be moved?She sincerely invited DR.CANG to come in and have a drink of water. DR.CANG hesitated for a moment, then followed her into the room. She took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator and poured it into a cup for DR.CANG as a favor, but she got so anxious that she couldn't even unscrew the bottle cap. DR.CANG stretched out his hand and said, "Let me do it." She had no choice but to give the bottle to DR. CANG, and said apologetically, "Sorry, only mineral water, I don't drink Coke, I heard it's bad for your health—" DR.CANG said "thank you", unscrewed the cap, drank a few sips, and then asked: "Mineral water is pretty good, why do you say sorry?" "Because you love Coke the most." DR.CANG smiled: "Who said I love Coke the most?" Because she was speaking Chinese, she was less nervous: "Don't you love Coke the most? Every time you go to class, you bring a can of Coke to the classroom—" "Where did I bring Coke to the classroom? How could I take the lead in breaking the department's rules?" When she saw him so eloquently quibbling, she couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I was wrong, you didn't bring it to the classroom, you put it outside the classroom—"" "That's about the same." DR.CANG stood up and said, "I'm leaving, you hurry up and prepare for tomorrow's presentation. Your spoken English is quite good, so don't be so nervous." She sent DR.CANG to the door, and he motioned her to stay, but she couldn't follow him, so she stood by the railing of the corridor to watch him leave.She saw DR. CANG come out of the building, walked to a black convertible car, got in, started the car, and quickly melted into the night.
