【Dictation】听写第七天

清华教授说如果把西游记倒过来看，其实更精彩。 

如来派师徒四人带上八部天书和小白龙去东土大唐传教

在一路上遇到了各种妖怪,打来打去发现他们都是有后台的

无论怎么作恶都不受惩罚

八戒和沙僧觉得太黑暗了

无奈一个躲进了高老庄

一个钻进了流沙河

只有悟空坚持正义

一路斩妖除魔

护送师傅东去传教

结果天庭对悟空实在忍无可忍

就和如来达成协议——

我们可以保证唐三藏平安到长安

不过你得把孙悟空这个刺儿头给办了

如来同意了

在一翻阴谋之下

白龙重伤坠入山涧

悟空败了

被压在了五指山下

而唐三藏却抛弃了孙悟空

孤身来到长安

在长安传完教

被封为御弟

享受完荣华富贵

寿终正寝

 就这样过了五百年

悟空终于从五指山下逃了出来

一声不吭

把天庭搅了个天翻地覆

天庭被逼无奈许诺让猪八戒化为人身

封为天蓬元帅 

沙和尚封为卷帘大将

只要他们能够杀掉孙悟空

 最后的最后

因为兄弟相残而心灰意冷的悟空

去寻找菩提祖师解惑

然后他封印了修为

如意金箍棒扔进了东海化作定海神针

回到花果山

陪着猴子猴孙过完了平凡的一生

最终在花果山的山顶化作了一块石头…… 

这才是真正的社会。

年轻人啊，面对社会的不安，请忍耐一下。

你终将望见光明，只是已经习惯了黑暗

不要在黑暗里呐喊，也不要在光明里彷徨

你能做的，不能做的

做好个了断

Mosquitoes Navigate Rain by Not Caring

Mosquitoes are so light that speeding raindrops simply brush them aside without imparting much force. Karen Hopkin reports

June 5, 2012 | 4  

Have you ever wondered what happens to mosquitoes in the rain? A raindrop is, like, 50 times heavier than those little suckers. So getting hit by one has gotta hurt, right?

Well, not so much. Because researchers at Georgia Tech have found that the bugs are so light, speeding water drops simply brush them aside, without imparting much force. The results appear in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. [Andrew K.  Dickerson et al., "Mosquitoes survive raindrop collisions by virtue of their low mass"]

Previous studies have shown that precipitation can be a real pain for lots of winged critters. Bats expend twice as much energy flying through a storm as in clear skies. But what about bugs no bigger than the raindrops themselves?

Researchers used high-speed video to watch mosquitoes wingin’ in the rain—well, through a spray of mist in the lab. They saw that when a skeeter and a water droplet meet, the insect basically hitches a ride for a bit before peeling away off unharmed.

So the bugs go with the flow and offer little resistance. And the drop slows only slightly, keeping its kinetic energy rather than blasting the bug. So for storm-trooping skeeters, resistance is not only futile. It’s all wet.
