Mr. Chabuduo’s appearance resembles yours and mine. He has two eyes - but does not see things very clearly. He has two ears - but they don't listen very well. He has a nose and a mouth, but does not distinguish much between different smells and tastes.

Several European countries including the UK, France, and Belgium have announced that colleges and universities are postponing the new semester to September. This means that universities are implementing online teaching for this whole semester. For many universities, online courses are not something new. But when facing the replacement of physical classrooms with online courses on such a large scale, the educational institutions, teachers, and students in these countries are still exploring and adjusting accordingly.

对于教师来讲，我们也要花更多精力调整讲课方式、语速、课件等，尽量使网课不那么枯燥。”比利时荷语布鲁塞尔自由大学讲师张蕾表示，“我们被迫取消很多实践及动手类的课程。比如我这学期的课程原本是要带学生们去参观欧盟机构、各大公司，与一线管理技术人员交流座谈，但现在只能变成讲理论和基础知识的网课。肯定是有很多遗憾，但目前来讲，也没有别的解决办法。”

"For teachers, we need to put more effort into adjusting teaching methods, speed of speech, and coursewares in order to make the lessons less boring. " Zhang Lei, a teacher from Free University of Brussels in Belgium said that, "We are forced to cancel many practical and hands-on courses. For example, my plan for the course this semester was to bring students on a tour in EU institutes and big companies, as well as in an exchange forum with front-line management and technical personnel. But now they have been changed to online ones about theory and basic knowledge. That is definitely a pity, but there is no other solution now. "

QinYu took a load off his mind. As it turned out that it's a mistake, merely a false alarm. He seized the opportunity and asked the girl's name, chatted for a while. In fact, the girl likes to watch stage drama, and she's a big fan of antique as well. Last month, she went to visit Shanghai, watched some play there, and visited some flea market. QinYu was thinking to add her on Wechat, but the girl said that she broke her phone last week, so she doesn't have a phone. Therefore, they decided to meet in front of the theatre half an hour before the play starts the next day.

乐广在家中思来想去、东翻西找，最后在客厅一抬头便看见墙上挂了一只弓，弯弯曲曲地像条蛇似的。脑中突然灵光一闪，心想：该不会和这只弓有关吧？于是乐广发挥了科学办案的精神，决定来个案情重组。

Yue Guang racked his brain and searched everywhere at his place. Finally, he looked up in the living room and saw a bow hanging on the wall. The bow looks twisted like a snake. A light bulb went on in his brain, "Could the bow has something to do with this?" He thought. Then he decided to reorganise the case with the spirit of tackling this case using science.

隔了几日，乐广听闻这位友人病倒的消息，特别登门探望他。在问到病因的时候，友人便将当日饮酒时的情况一五一十地告知了乐广。乐广一听也懵了，回家的路上心想：“我家里哪来的小蛇呢？要是真有蛇的话也非得找出来，要不自己住得也提心吊胆的！”于是一回到家便展开了捕蛇行动。

A few days later, after Yue Guang heard the news that his friend fell ill, he paid a special visit to his place. When asked about the cause, his friend told him exactly what happened on the day when they were drinking. Yue Guang is so confused when hearing this, and started to think while returning back home. "Where did the little snake come from? If there really is a snake, I have to find it, or else I will be in fear of living there. " So as soon as he got home, he started the snake catching operation.

相传一千多年前在中国晋朝有位叫做乐广的人，交游广阔，特别喜欢宴请朋友到家中喝酒聊天。有一次，在宴席上，乐广的一位朋友在敬酒时，看见杯子里有条小蛇在酒里蠕动，这位朋友虽然饱受惊吓，但碍于面子，不得不勉强将酒一饮而尽。回家之后，老觉得自己肚子里有条小蛇钻来钻去，越想越难受，竟然因此病倒了！

Legend has it, more than a thousand years ago, in the Gin dynasty of China, there was a person named Yue Guang. He has many friends, and he especially likes to invite friends to come over to have a drink and chat. Once at the banquet, a friend of Yue Guang saw a little snake wriggling in the glass while toasting. Although his friend was frightened, because of his pride, he had no choice but to force himself to drink up the wine. After he got home, he constantly felt like there’s a snake winding around in his stomach. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He even ended up falling ill because of this!

于是乐广立马奔去找友人，将友人带回自己家中，又将情况重新完整地还原了一次。友人一看”唷！这不就是我当天喝下去的那条蛇吗？原来它压根儿就不是蛇，只是弓的倒影，是我自己吓自己！虚惊一场！”。知道了原委，他这病也就立刻痊愈了。

He rushed to his friend's immediately, brought him back to his place, and restored the scene again. Once his friend saw it, he realized,"Oh! Isn't this the snake I swallowed down that day? It turns out that it is not a snake at all, but a reflection of the bow. I was scaring myself. False alarm!" After knowing the whole story, he restored his health immediately.
