| A 16-YEAR-OLD is usually a high school student. However, Zhang Xinyang, 16, has just entered Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (北京航空航天大学) as the youngest PhD (博士生) student in China. Zhang is from Liaoning. His father found his son had a better memory than other children when Zhang was only 3. The little boy remembered more than 1,000 Chinese characters (汉字) in just three months. Many students consider studying to be boring and hard, but Zhang enjoys it. His favorite subject is math. It's also what he does best. When Zhang was 10, he became the youngest college student in China after joining Tianjin Engineering College. In less than three years, Zhang finished all four years of schoolwork and his final thesis (毕业论 文). At 12, Zhang passed the exam for a master's course at the Beijing University of Technology (北京工 业大学). At the time, people said that Zhang must have spent all his time studying and never got a chance to play. But Zhang has many interests besides his studies.? He loves almost all kinds of sports, especially soccer and basketball. Although Zhang is a star student, professor Zhou Meng, his doctoral supervisor (博士生导师), will not treat him any differently. "He has a strong learning ability, but I'll ask him to do everything other students do." When he talks about the future, Zhang says he wants to enter a post-doctoral (博士后的) research station. "I hope to do some great things in math," he said. 注解: experience 经历 undergraduate student 本科生 graduate student 研究生 doctoral student 博士生 |
