The bus wove through the winding mountain roads, gradually leaving behind the bustling campus as it moved forward. Outside the window, the mountains rose and fell, with lush trees intertwining to create a series of captivating forest scenes. The distant peaks appeared particularly magnificent under the sunlight, evoking a sense of vastness and tranquility. However, the bumps along the mountain road made the bus sway noticeably at every turn, causing the students to rock back and forth in their seats, as if they were aboard a small boat swaying in turbulent waters.
Finally, after a considerable journey, the bus slowly arrived at the transfer station in Cuigu Town. Professor Chen Fengyu stood up and reminded the students to prepare to disembark; her voice echoed within the cabin, bringing a touch of calm to the tense atmosphere. The students lined up orderly to get off the bus, cautiously stepping onto the platform of the transfer station.
The bus station gives people a sense of having experienced the test of time. The cement wall next to the sign is full of cracks, showing the traces of years. The posters on the wall have faded, appearing old and withered, with curled edges, as if telling stories of the past. The old speakers hang quietly on the wall, seemingly having not made any sound for a long time.
Inside the bus station, there are not only students and tourists coming and going, but also some local residents. Several elderly people with white hair sit on the benches, chatting about everyday matters, their faces showing kindness and calmness. A shabbily dressed homeless man lies in the corner, using a newspaper to cover his body, seemingly ignored by people. Station staff are busy maintaining order, dressed in uniforms, with serious expressions, occasionally directing the crowd.
Jingxuan and Ruoxi got off the car and observed everything around them. The scene at the transfer station made them feel a unique cultural atmosphere. The leisure of the elderly, the helplessness of the homeless, and the busyness of the station staff, every scene quietly told the story of this small town. They chatted softly, feeling curious and interested in this lively little town.
Professor Chen Fengyu made sure all the students had gotten off the bus and gathered together, then began calling roll one by one to ensure no one was left behind. Afterwards, she guided everyone to the side of the transfer station to avoid disturbing other tourists and staff. The elderly in the corner of the transfer station seemed curious about the appearance of this group of young students. They whispered to each other, discussing in low voices what the outsiders might be doing.
Professor Chen Fengyu cleared his throat and announced in a loud voice the task for today’s class: "Today's assignment is for you to photograph a location in Cuigu Town that interests you the most. This location will be one of the key focuses for your future local investigations. You need to communicate with the people at this location and establish connections. At the end of the semester, we will create a report based on these locations and individuals."
The professor's words fell into silence among the students, many of whom displayed expressions of confusion and hesitation. This task seemed somewhat challenging for them, as establishing communication with complete strangers is not an easy feat.
At this moment, a classmate raised his hand and asked, "Professor! What should the theme of the final presentation be?" There was a hint of worry in his voice.
Professor Chen Fengyu smiled and replied, "The final presentation should mainly focus on the location you have chosen and your interactions with the local people. I hope you can learn from these interactions and reflect your understanding and feelings about the location in the presentation. It should not only be descriptive, but also include deep thinking and analysis."
Chen Fengyu Professor's words further depict the richness and diversity of this field investigation. Her voice is firm and infectious: "So, students, the topics for the final report can be very diverse. You can choose to participate in an activity with local residents, or experience their daily lives firsthand. Your report can be presented in various forms, but it's important to authentically demonstrate your interaction with the local community and people."
The professor's words stirred emotions in the students' hearts, gradually bringing a look of contemplation and anticipation to their faces. This course design is not only an academic investigation, but also an opportunity for a deep understanding of local culture and community.
Later, the professor also made several important reminders: "Before you begin your exploration, I must emphasize a few important things. First, safety is always the most important. When conducting field surveys, please be sure to pay attention to your own safety. Second, when communicating with local residents or other individuals, please maintain politeness and respect, and avoid any behavior that may cause conflict. Finally, if you encounter any problems or difficulties during the investigation, you can always come to me. I will be handling some matters at the café near the transfer station, or I may be in the field survey like you. If you can't find me, you can call or email me. Please make sure you understand these points."
The students nodded one after another, indicating that they clearly understood the professor's requirements and reminders. Jingxuan and Ruoxi looked at each other, showing a determined and excited expression on their faces. They knew that this field survey was not only an academic task, but also an opportunity for in-depth exploration and experience of the local culture.
After the professor announced that the students could begin their activities, they quickly dispersed. Some formed small teams to plan their joint explorations, while others chose to venture out alone, exploring the charming town in their own way. They started searching for places and people in Cuigu Town that could spark their curiosity, each filled with anticipation for the unknown and excitement for new discoveries.
Jingxuan and Ruoxi walked together, discussing the places and potential characters that interested them. Their steps were light, and their eyes were filled with curiosity.
