Chapter 3026 Mercury Record (XII)
The next morning, Clark was startled when he ran into Bruce in the cafeteria. He looked Bruce up and down and said, "My God, Bruce, I know you and Selina are in love, but you two..."
At this time, Diana passed by with a plate in her hand. She also looked at Bruce, but maybe because Bruce was a man, she just clicked her tongue and left.
Clark put his arm around Bruce's shoulders and said, "I understand you, brother. Lois and I are like this sometimes. A short absence makes us feel like a new marriage, but isn't it a bit... Never mind. Maybe you Batmen are just good at staying up late."
Bruce sighed and said, "It's not because of Selina."
"That was you?!" Clark was even more shocked. He couldn't help but give Bruce a thumbs up. Bruce pushed his hand down and said unhappily, "It was because of Jenna!"
Clark was completely stunned, and then his expression gradually became serious, but before he could say anything, Bruce said: "Because of Jenna's paper!"
"Oh, I remember now. You said you were optimistic about that girl. I also thought she was quite smart. What happened to her thesis?"
"Her paper was not very good."
"Then what are you in a hurry for?"
"I'm worried that she doesn't have a paper!"
Bruce had no choice but to repeat to Clark what he had said to Jenna yesterday. Clark sighed and said, "You're taking it too seriously, Bruce. Jenna is an alien. It's normal that she doesn't understand some things on Earth. You have to give her some time."
"I don't understand how long it would take to write 10 details and a 500-word paper. I didn't even ask her what type of details to look for, nor did I ask her to find the right ones. She could just make up 10 of them."
"That just proves her honesty." Clark, who could make Bruce mad with his mouth, said, "She didn't want to make up something, but told you she couldn't do it. That's honesty. She kept calling you because she's studious. Even if she couldn't hand in the paper this morning, at least she didn't intend to fool you. That's respect for her teacher."
Bruce was so angry that smoke came out of his head.
It's really not that he is pushing his child to study too hard. As we all know, the information content of English is actually quite low. With the same 100 words, many other languages can express more information than English. And to express the same information, most languages can express it in a shorter way than English.
Within the range of several hundred words, the difficulty is much lower than an 800-word Chinese composition. However, due to the existence of various awkward grammars, within the range of a long essay of several thousand words, it is more difficult than writing several thousand words in Chinese.
Most of the common homework assignments in English teaching are short essays of just a few hundred words. There are no strict academic requirements, and it usually takes no more than an hour for a native speaker to complete the assignment. If you want to fool around, there are many people who can finish it in just a dozen minutes.
Moreover, the homework assigned by American schools is not so varied. There are no tests, exercise books, or newspapers. Generally, there are two types: group assignments and short essays. These two types of homework are assigned from middle school to college, and it is basically impossible for someone not to know how to do them.
Even if Jenna is indeed an alien and has not attended middle school on Earth, she can speak English. She can even use voice input and only needs to say a few hundred words. If she uses complete written expression grammar, there are only a few sentences in English.
But just for these few hundred words, Jenna spent most of the night with him. It was time to talk, but young people can stay up late. At 3:30 in the morning, Bruce fell asleep.
As a result, Jenna, looking refreshed, came towards him, carrying a large plate of food with half a piece of bread in her mouth. She sobbed and said to Bruce, "Good morning, professor."
"How do you think I am?"
"Well, I was a little nervous writing a paper for the first time. I promise I won't be like that next time." Jenna gave him an apologetic smile.
With so many people watching in the cafeteria, Bruce couldn't get angry at her. He could only sigh and say, "Put your paper on my desk when you enter the classroom. If it's less than 500 words, you're done!"
But Bruce didn't expect that the paper on his desk was the beginning of his real nightmare.
As soon as the bell rang, Bruce walked into the classroom. He still had to teach the criminal investigation class today, and he was teaching the two classes that did not attend yesterday.
He lowered his head and was planning to look at the lesson plan, but he saw the paper placed on top of the lesson plan at a glance. Within three seconds, he saw 16 grammatical errors, 6 spaces for line breaks, and all periods were separated by full-width separators.
Bruce almost choked up.
In fact, it cannot be said that Bruce has any obsession with teaching and educating, let alone teacher ethics.
However, people who have experience in tutoring children with homework should understand that the most annoying thing in this process is not that he doesn't do his homework, but that you don't know whether some of his behaviors are instinctive or intentional, and whether he hates doing homework or hates you.
Distinguishing between the two can drain all of a person's energy, leading to emotional breakdown and mental and physical exhaustion.
The problem Bruce faces is that he doesn't know whether Jenna really can't do it or is doing it on purpose.
After all, she is an alien, and it is possible that she cannot write a paper. However, she is so smart in other aspects, so why does she become like a mentally retarded person when it comes to writing a paper?
Because of this, Bruce cannot directly take some more radical measures to deal with her, because if she really doesn't know how to do it, not to mention whether it will scare her away, he won't be able to get past Superman and Wonder Woman alone.
So Bruce could only endure it for the time being and talk about it after class.
Because he wanted to know whether all people who had not received general social education could not write essays, Bruce deliberately gave these two classes 500-word essays to see how they would write.
And Bruce will soon pay the price for his irrational behavior caused by anger.
When the get out of class was over, Bruce called Jenna over. Before he could say anything, Jenna started howling.
"Help, Professor Wayne, Professor Prince is so terrible, she made us do more than 40 push-ups in 600-degree heat, my arms!!!"
Bruce's eyes widened and he said, "How many?!"
Jenna drew a number with her feet to show that she really couldn't lift her arms.
"Is Diana crazy? Do humans do so much?"
"Oh, that's not the case. She said it was formulated based on the physiques of different races. Humans only need to do 60."
“That’s pretty outrageous.”
"Who says it's not?"
"Wait a minute, that's not why I came here to talk to you." Bruce took out Jenna's paper and didn't even have the heart to look at it again. He said, "Miss, do you know how much terrible grammar you used in it?"
"How much? Let me see."
Jenna leaned her head over and Bruce circled every place. Jenna listened very carefully. Bruce asked her to repeat it, and she was able to repeat it. Bruce felt a little happier.
But he was happy too soon.
Grammar and symbols are minor issues. Considering that Jenna is an alien, it is normal to have many mistakes when writing a paper at the beginning.
Content is the big issue.
Bruce didn't even want to let this knowledge get close to his brain, but he still pointed to a line of words and said, "You said that the traces of the ambulance door opening can be used to infer the height and weight of the person. Can you tell me how you inferred that?"
"Judging from the bloodstains, the right door was opened first, but his body should have been dismembered on the left. However, he did not get out of the car from the left, but got out from the right again. This proves that he may have no strength left, so he was a relatively thin person."
Bruce laughed. He asked, "Why do you think his body was cut into pieces on the left?"
"Because of the blood?"
"You can't see the blood."
"Uh, footprints..."
"There were no footprints at all."
"The center of gravity of the car."
"It has nothing to do with automotive engineering."
"Well, he will place his limbs last, and from bottom to top, which represents a perversion, a way of expressing his feelings, and the hand is on the left."
"So you still rely on blind guessing to come to a conclusion, and then take the conclusion as an established fact and speculate on what will happen next."
"But this is not a blind guess, this is what he thinks, absolutely."
"Nothing is absolute. Okay, let's talk about this. How does the blood splatter on the roof indicate how long he stayed there?"
Jenna was about to say something when Bruce stopped her and said, "Don't guess. Just tell me your reasoning."
"The murderer cut the victim's throat in order to cut off his tongue, because he had been treated like this before, so he chose this method to subdue the other party."
"The murderer deliberately let the blood from the artery splatter onto the ceiling. He wanted to create a barrier. To him, it meant that your god would no longer see you and would no longer help you."
"This means that his mark on this independent space has occupied a part of God's world and killed God's believers. This is also a provocation, which echoes the last case."
"He will wait for the barrier to take effect. To him, the coagulation of blood is a sign of transition from life to death, so he will wait until the blood coagulates before taking action."
"However, he wanted to separate the victim alive, so he didn't wait until the blood ran out and he died. Therefore, as long as we find the balance between the blood clotting time and the human death time, we can determine how long he stayed in the car."
Bruce rubbed his temple and said, "The last two sentences sound close to analysis, but there is absolutely no evidence for the previous conclusions."
"I told you I couldn't find it."
Jenna's facial features wrinkled together. She said, "Such a simple case, such obvious emotions, what kind of analysis is needed? I can say that if the murderer of this case appeared in front of me, I would recognize him immediately. He is as obvious as a high beam in the dark night. Why don't you understand?"
"Let's talk about the second case. How many did you find?" Bruce said.
"Only one place."
"What is it?"
"The posture of the corpse, the posture of the corpse in the oil barrel is like a sleeping baby." Jenna looked into Bruce's eyes and said:
The murderer was once an insomniac. In most cases, he could not sleep peacefully, but he was cured. "
"How do you know he's been cured?"
"Didn't you fall asleep yesterday?"
