back from the west highland way

已经很长时间没更新space，这沉默的半年让我学会了如何将那些不怎么中听的话咽到肚子里。这次苏格兰高地徒步归来又感受到了那种久违的像说话的冲动，有些话嘴上不好说但心里却又感到不吐不快，看来是时候打破这长达半年的静默了。

5天154公里的徒步和大不列颠群岛最高峰Ben Nevis的攀登，和以往一样我的假期从来就是充满了挑战和未知，挑战的是自己的体能和意志，至于未知嘛--不期而至的狂风骤雨、不合时宜的意外伤病......一个人的徒步就意味着从路线设计开始我就必须一个人面对那些接踵而至的理想与现实的矛盾，我想这就是我喜欢这种旅行方式的原因，当然这也注定这种旅行方式不能广泛流行。旅途中当人们感到累的时候，最好的舒缓方式莫过于找个同伴聊天了；如果身边没有同伴眼前的美景也能适当的减轻人的疲劳感；如果说你一个人走的是一条看不见尽头的路而且对眼前的一切已经产生了审美疲劳的话，你就只能胡思乱想了。这次走了七天，脑袋也跟着漫无边际的想了七天，和那些曾经的大诗人、大文豪一样自己的思想又接受了一次来自大自然的洗礼。

不要天真的认为这所谓的洗礼是件多么隆重的仪式，其实这一路走来我一直认为自己形象上像个药农，行为上像个疯子。还记得小时候看过的连环画，画面上无论是华陀、孙思邈还是李时珍都是著者拐棍背着大药筐行走于崎岖山路上的药农形象，如果说我行头上还缺点什么话——拐棍上挂的药葫芦，胲下的一缕长髯仅此而已。至于疯子他们会随性的去喊去叫，不为吸引他人的注意只在乎自己心中那喊叫的冲动，一个人走在路上面对造物主的鬼斧神工毫无遮掩得发出感叹，在这一点上我疯了，真的疯了！

如果您认为这一路我是一步一个脚印走下来的，那么您错了。在体力充沛的时候人总是想爬得更高，走得更远，看得更多，只时候无论你的脚印在一滩烂泥里印得有多深你都不会去留意的；当夜幕即将降临或是雨雪冰雹来袭，求生的本性能让在路上的你忘却伤痛、忘却疲惫并产生一种额外的能量输出，这种额外的能量会让你使出120%力量来克服眼前的困难，这时候你所迈出的每一步都是对未来希望，没有人会关心你这一步迈的是那条腿、踏出了多大一个坑；只有一种情况下人们会去关心自己的脚印，那就是当伤病的疼痛和审美的疲劳同时作用的时候，在这时候数脚印即一种分散注意力的方法，也能为内心感到踏实提供恰当的理由。一步一个脚印是一种状态，这种状态能让人从不安中找到踏实的感觉，仅仅能产生一种暂时麻痹自己的感觉而已；要走得更远就不应该把过多的精力浪费在观察自己的每一步留下了什么上，因为我知道在我前方的山顶上一定竖立着一座坚固的里程碑。

文章写到这似乎会让读者产生一种错觉——到苏格兰高地旅行的人都跑去尼斯湖（Loch Ness）找水怪去了，高低西面的罗蒙湖（Loch Lomond）和Ben Nevis似乎都成了荒凉的无人区。其实不然，我这一路走来还是碰到了不少游人的，只不过他们中的大多数都机械的按照简介中的路线和方向与我擦肩而过，能在路上跟我说话超过5句的着实不多。至于和我同行超过1 mile的人就更少了，只有三个，三个都是高手，是那种双人行异能为吾师的高手。这仨人一个是爬坡速度快得惊人的70岁老汉；一个是帮我达到步行速度极限的50岁中年；三个人中最与我一见如故的是个和我年纪相仿的登山者，在两人同行的4 mile里讨论的话题从道路两旁被砍伐的森林到水沟里青蛙的受精卵，受他的启发我对登雪山路径的选择有了新的认识。

今天的话说得有点多、有点过，俗话说口无遮拦、祸从口出，呵呵，今天就适可而止吧！

Le SACRE du PRINTEMPS (the rite of spring)

Like Picasso's painting it is very difficult to understand Stravinsky's music, especially when he use the abstract method to preformance his abstrct pieces. However, i seem to find the clue of his most famous music--The Rite of Spring after my bloody, crazy, busy september in 2007. (Very sorry to my spaces, i can't update you until now.)

On my first day back i told to my headmaster i arranged a busy summer vocation in China and would like to spend a comfortable holiday during the semester in Britain, it's just a joke. But the truth is my life will only becomg busier and busier, everything heppened in a reverse way, my life in September was dominated by lectures, logical thinking and english skill exams, university application, interviews with the local councilors and the new Chinese students... ...God! The hardest aspect was not completing all the things step by step, the mean thing was i always run out of my arrangement because the councilors could speak as long as he want noboday can interrupt their topic, so 4 hours, 5 hours went without notice, also because the information requirement for the decision making were unpredictable it was difficult to say 'i can finish it before ****', however, you need to know when you have to finish them whick embarassed me most. Anyway i will come back to the orbit soon, i trust this all the while. Since my Cambridge application form has sent yestoday, first, i remove the pressure in this semester, i can cross my fingers and wait for the next event now.

Let's come back to the music, the uncertain and changeable elements or inducements in the Rite of Spring are not only just reflect the aboriginality and the demonolatry, but also reflect the unperdictable destiny for the dancing girl and the indigenes, because the girl cannot stop dancing on the fire until she died, she don't know when is her deadline the only thing she know is her die can bring the lucky to the whole area. Therefore during her dance we can hear from the music that she is willing to died but also worry about it at the same time. The songs of indigenes are not a kind of against, in reverse that's a kind of esteem to both the girl and the natural environment. The key for the whole piece of symphony is the combination of unpredictable and hope, that's what my experience tell me.

Although the future is unpredictable, i can keep the hope and try my best to fulfill it, dancing on the fire is also a kind of beauty, isn't it?

News From Hartlepool Mail 12/09/2007

Chinese students flock to college

CHINESE students have travelled more than 5,000 miles to do their A-levels...in Hartlepool.

Thirteen students have enrolled at Hartlepool Sixth Form College to begin two years of A-levels and GCSEs.
The college has seen the number of students from the Far East exceed their expectations after its popularity grew and its teachers travelled to Shanghai and Guangzhou to teach maths.
Just three students were expected but 13 have enrolled this year, the second year the scheme has been run.
The students come from Beijing, Shangai, Guangzhou, Dongguan and Foshan and have previously been studying an intensive course in York to learn English.
Joe Zhou, from Guangzhou in China, arrived at the college last year. He is studying maths, further maths and physics.
He gained 100 per cent in five out of his nine examinations and is looking forward to applying to Cambridge University to read mechanical engineering.
Joe, 19, said: "The college is quite nice and all the staff take care of me. I really enjoy it. Here, I get more spare time for reading and playing sports than I did in China."
Carole Horseman, assistant principal at the college, said: "The students' parents said they wanted their children to have an English education so their sons and daughters become truly international and can move from west to east with comfort and ease.
"The students can't get over the fact that they are not working 14 hours a day, like they do in China. It's a big culture shock."
The young people are living with families in Hartlepool and accommodation is always being sought. Anyone interested in providing accommodation should contact the college on (01429) 294444.

07暑假实习报告与鉴定

实习报告

l         地点：广东生益科技股份有限公司四分厂、技术中心
l         时间：2007-8-20 至 2007-8-30
l         报告人：周梓鹏

生益科技——一个在过去十几年我脑海中既熟悉又陌生的名字，我熟悉的是父亲口中那永远蒸蒸日上的公司，而令我感到陌生的则是这工厂里真实的生产与生活。正因如此，抱着体验与学习的心态在2007年的8月下旬我开始了在这间工厂的实习生活。

除了印象中那常年累月朝天空中吐气得烟囱，到底工厂内部到底是怎么样的，究竟工人是如何在生产线上作业的，一件成品要经过多少道工序……说实话在来实习之前我心里还真的没底。不过通过这几天的亲身体验我找到了生益科技对上述问题所给出的答案，当然能有机会更近距离的去了解线路板的上游产品——覆铜版、粘结片的生产流程与技术细节，也为此次实习增色不少。
初进四厂就让我有了一种耳目一新的感觉，那一套行之有效的除尘措施改变了我对生产车间卫生状况的一贯看法。进厂更衣换鞋有效的阻断了外来尘土进入厂房的传播途径，当工人要进入上胶工段工作之前还要再次换鞋、穿上防静电服并接受风淋的进一步除尘处理，
在车间内部定期拖地保持车间内的相对湿度，并有效减少了灰尘的漂浮。更令我吃惊的是全厂的工人对这套有些繁琐的隔离措施的执行几乎没打半点折扣，除了这一系列有效的提高了产品质量之外，工人们的素质也明显的超过了我的想象。当然在这一方面也不排除像范厂长所说的“工人们只干上头要求干的事”，游戏规则定的细，工人们则将规则落到实处。
在车间里无论是厂长、工段长还是普通工人们都不止一次的提醒我要注意安全，在厂房里内有一定危险的地方都有明确的标示并用栏杆与黄线拦截。车间里有效的运用了形迹管理的手段，所有物品都在地面或桌面有特定的摆放位置，并用3M胶布在物品摆放处贴出该物品的具体形迹，通过定点、定物、定时“三定”达到易拿、易洗、易放“三易”。明显的标示或编号大大的减小了生产过程中的失误，提高了生产的效率，同时减低了因人为不慎导致危险的可能。
在这几天的工作中我能很明显的感觉到四厂的现场管理和控制有一个很明显的特点，那就是责任落实到个人，一但发现问题马上设法解决，对问题的解决要定时小结，相关环节上做及时地跟进。专人专责的确有助于办事效率的提升，举个例子：室温达到70度的上胶塔每个小时都有专人上塔检查，在这几天里我从来没有发现有工人因为分工不明确而相互推卸责任，试想一下有哪个人愿意每个小时都往70多度的烤箱里跑。在每班责任落实到个人的基础上，四厂班与班之间的良性竞争同样有助于工作效率的提升。班与班之间争第一，一个班创下了纪录另两个班就要把纪录提到更高，什么安全生产纪录、不断布纪录、0投诉纪录……都成为了厂长为激励员工所设置的红线，破纪录有奖，赢家有奖、输家认罚的游戏规则让员工们铆足了干劲争取厂内第一，力争公司的流动红旗。
不过由于我在分厂实习的时间有限，在大多是情况下我只能帮助工人们做做清洁，抬抬波纤布，推推叉车和树脂，最后有限的了解了一下外观的缺陷检验，有不少知识由于时间关系无法有更深的了解，不少应该去尝试一下的操作也只能过过眼瘾，更多的时候我只能是追问个原理。不过总体来说在分厂的实习还是让我了解了不少书本上看不到的东西，虽说只是走马观花，但也是弥足珍贵，剩下的也许真的只有亲手做过才能了解了。
除了在车间了解生产过程以外，在非上班时间我对工人们日常的生活，工厂里利用业余时间组织的活动也在于员工的交谈和参与中有了一定认识。
厂里的员工来自全国各地，习俗与口味也大不相同，有句话叫众口难调，这几天下来我算是明白了这现如今像我这种不能吃辣的人群在国内该算是少数民族了。每天面对饭堂四六分的饭菜时虽说味道不错但有时还真是有点无奈。对了提到吃饭我还想罗嗦两句，作为外来实习的我这几天一直要用特殊消毒的餐具，为了预防乙肝看来我是与员工们体检后所用的无缘喽。
来实习的第二天恰巧碰上了公司羽毛球队第一次训练的日子，我自然是不会错过这样的机会。那天去了大概有二十几人，还真别说这支球队的水平还是蛮高的至少对于目前的我来说取胜还是比较艰难的，目下对我来说还是在队中找几个高人指点一下比较符合实际，不过也许是公司提供训练经费，场上的换球频率有点过了。

逝者如斯，半个月前我对工厂的了解还仅限于书本和电视等平面媒体说白了最多是个人云亦云，现在经过了这段时间的体验我可以说对于工厂我至少有那么一点感性认识了。体验学习的时间总是转瞬即过，不过在回归书本之前我可以确切的告诉自己：在我的经历中又增加了一笔宝贵的财富。
