This was because all botany students had to spend several

14、 hours a week in a laboratory looking through a microscope at plant cells, and I could never once see a cell through a microscope. This used to make my professor angry. He would wander around the laboratory pleased with the progress all the students were making in drawing the structure of flower cel

15、ls, until he came to me. I would just be standing there. “I cant see anything,”I would say. He would begin patiently enough, explaining how anybody can see through a microscope, but he would always end up angrily, claiming that I could too see through a microscope but just pretended that I couldnt.

16、“It takes away from the beauty of flowers anyway.”I used to tell him.“We are not concerned with beauty in this course,”he would say.“We are concerned with the structure of flowers.” “Well,” Id say.“I cant see anything.” “Try it just once again,” hed say, and I would put my eye to the microscope and

17、see nothing at all, except now and again something unclear and milky. “You were supposed to see a clear, moving plant cells shaped like clocks.” “I see what looks like a lot of milk.” I would tell him. This, he claimed, was the result of my not having adjusted the microscope properly, so he would re

18、adjust it for me, or rather, for himself. And I would look again and see milk.I failed to pass botany that year, and had to wait a year and try again, or I couldnt graduate. The next term the same professor was eager to explain cell-structure again to his classes. “Well,”he said to me, happily, “wer

19、e going to see cells this time, arent we?” “Yes,sir,” I said. Students to the right of me and to the left of me and in front of me were seeing cells; whats more, they were . Of course, I didnt see anything.So the professor and I tried with every adjustment of the microscope known to man. With only o

20、nce did I see anything but blackness or the familiar milk, and that time I saw, to my pleasure and amazement, something like stars. These I hurriedly drew. The professor, noting my activity, came to me, a smile on his lips and his eyebrows high in hope. He looked at my cell drawing. “Whats that?”he

21、asked.“Thats what I saw,”I said.“You didnt, you didnt, you didnt!”he screamed, losing control of himself immediately, and he bent over and looked into the microscope. He raised his head suddenly. “Thats your eye!” he shouted. “Youve adjusted the microscope so that it reflects! Youre drawn your eye!”

25、g to London.University accommodation (住所) officesMany university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords. Others also provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organization. The advantage of using your university accommodation is that you can get suppo

26、rt if you have a problem. The disadvantage is that they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to house all their students.Property papers: Loot and RentingLoot is an important source of information about private housing for co-renters. The offers are from private landlords, agencies and i

27、ndividuals looking for other co-renters. They also have a website: . The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains. The disadvantage is that there is no quality control over the offers.Renting is another useful paper. The offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation age
