MTL - Reborn Russia As An Oligarch-Chapter 3 Arrive at alma mater
Chapter 3 Arrival at Alma Mater
Because of the cold weather, the gate of the dormitory building here is a double-layer structure.
That is, outside the main entrance, there is also a door opening with a glass structure.
The outermost is a thick hanging curtain of green canvas, which can effectively isolate the cold outside air.
lifted the curtain, walked through the glass doorway, and came to the main entrance of the dormitory building.
It is a typical Soviet-style gate, with a log door frame, a thick door handle, and a double-layer strip of thick glass inlaid on it.
The door handle and door frame are a little shiny, it's been used for too long, and it's a little bit pulpy...
As soon as I entered the lobby, I felt a heat on my face, and a hot air rushed to my face.
For some classmates who wore glasses, the glasses immediately turned white and could not see anything.
is also due to climate reasons. In Moscow, it snows seven or eight months a year.
Usually, snow starts in October every year and lasts until April of the following year.
And it’s not over yet, sometimes in May and June, even in July, occasionally there will be snowflakes!
The climate is cold, and the lowest temperature can reach minus 30 degrees, so heating is very important.
Here, indoor and outdoor are completely two worlds.
When Wang Ye and the others first got out of the car, even though they were wrapped in thick down jackets and warm pants, they were still instantly frozen, and they felt cold inside.
Standing outside, you can't help but "shiver"...
But when we got to the dormitory lobby, it was like summer!
You can also see some students passing by the lobby, wearing short sleeves and big pants…
The heating is very sufficient, and the indoor temperature is above 25 degrees. It is really normal to wear short-sleeved shorts.
Wang Ye also knew that when he was in the room, the temperature would be even higher, sometimes even reaching about 30 degrees, and he couldn't cover things at night...
"Wow, why is it so hot! I'm about to sweat." Liu Xiaojie next to him unzipped his down jacket, took off the myopia glasses on the bridge of his nose, pulled up the hem of the thermal jacket inside, wiped his lenses, and put them on again. Wearing glasses.
Wang Ye smiled and said nothing, but he also unbuttoned his down jacket.
After a while, he was sweating a little.
Teacher Wu, who led the team, went to the dormitory management office to go through the formalities, leaving a few of them standing in the hall waiting.
looked at the surrounding environment, although so many years have passed, but still have vague memories, after all, I have lived here for more than half a year.
This Building No. 6 is filled with preparatory students.
Domestic college students may not understand the concept of "preparatory courses", but foreign students who come to study here must study for one year of preparatory courses and pass the preparatory examinations before they can officially enter the university.
Wang Ye and the others all came to college after graduating from high school, and of course they also took preparatory courses.
They all came to study abroad through an intermediary. They started to go through the procedures in June and July last year, but the intermediary was a bit tricky and the procedures were too slow.
As a result, they should have come to study the preparatory course in September last year, but it has been delayed until now, and it has been delayed for half a year.
However, the intermediary has also communicated with the school and will allow them to enter the "expedited class". They only need to study for half a year of preparatory courses before they can enter the university.
Of course, the prerequisite is to pass the preparatory graduation examination.
Before he came, Wang Ye and the others were not idle, and the agency held a Russian training class, which was considered to let them start learning ahead of time.
The preparatory course is mainly to learn Russian, because after entering the university, you will have to take a class with the old Maozi students.
As for speaking for a year, whether the language can really reach that level is actually well known to everyone.
When I was in my freshman year and sophomore year, I could barely listen to professional courses, mainly learning languages.
Only those international students who really study hard will be able to basically pass the language test when they reach the third and fourth year of college.
As for most of the students who don’t study hard, they may stay until graduation and cannot communicate with Lao Maozi on a daily basis.
The group of high school graduates studying abroad can be described as a mixed bag, with good and bad.
There are those who really come out to study, and some who come to mix, it depends on their choice.
Comparatively, those who come to study in Russia are better, because those who come here have some money at home, but they are not rich enough.
At most, you don’t study hard and just play with the computer. As for wasting money, you don’t have that kind of strength at home…
There is a consensus among the international students, that is, if you really want to say "study garbage", New Zealand is the first, and Australia is the second…
Generally, students who go to those two places are not really there to study, but to get visas for immigration.
Moreover, the cost of studying abroad in those two places is very high, and the family does not have enough strength to send their children there.
The real "superior people" among the international students are those who go to Laomei, whether they are graduating from high school to go to university, or after graduating from university to study for a doctorate.
Because to study in Laos, either your family is very powerful, or your personal grades are very good...
…………
The lobby of the dormitory is quite spacious, and there is a small shop in the inner corner, which mainly sells some food, beverages and daily necessities. The rest of the place is empty.
The ground is covered with wooden floors, but it is not the high-end "oak floor" and "mahogany floor" that are popular in China. Because of the abundant wood resources, many buildings are covered with wooden floors.
But the wooden floors here are more distinctive, all of which are rectangular wooden strips with palm lengths, which are densely spread on the ground.
It has been a long time, and the floor is relatively loose, and there is a "squeak, squeak" sound when you walk up.
"Brother Ye, the environment here is good. I don't know which dormitory to assign me to later. It would be great if we could be assigned one." Liu Xiaojie next to him said again.
The two of them are fellow villagers, and they also trained Russian together before coming here.
Liu Xiaojie is the same age as Wang Ye, both eighteen years old, but half a head shorter than Wang Ye.
He is more honest and honest, and he has a good relationship with Wang Ye.
"I don't think there's any drama. Didn't the teacher just say that in the car, in order to allow us to integrate into the environment faster, we will try to arrange us separately." Wang Ye smiled.
Indeed, if you want to integrate into a new environment as soon as possible, it is best not to hang out with familiar people.
If Chinese students continue to live and study with Chinese students here, their language skills will definitely improve slowly, because they usually communicate in Mandarin, and there are fewer opportunities to practice language.
But if you live with foreigners, even if you are not Lao Maozi, if you want to communicate, you will try to use Russian as much as possible.
Invisibly, it also forces you to improve your language skills as soon as possible.
In this respect, the intermediary is still responsible, and the starting point is also for the good of the students.
