-- Another story about "warm boiled frog"

Shi hanbing

The famous story of "warm boiled frog" has been cited by many people. When a frog is put into boiling water, the frog immediately jumps out of the boiling water to escape. It is also a boiling frog experiment, where the frog is first placed in a container containing cold water, and then heated. The results are different. The frog is naturally in the water due to the comfort of the water temperature at the beginning. When it was discovered that the temperature could not be tolerated, it was insufficient. Hot in hot water.

Are frogs so stupid?

In the 1990s S, a female biology teacher in Beijing organized the class to perform such an experiment (a friend I know is in this class): two or three students, allocate a container and a frog, heat up via text, so that the water temperature rises slowly to meet the basic conditions of "warm boiled frog. The students anxiously watched the temperature thermometer and the frog in the container. When the temperature rises to 60 degrees, frogs start to jump out. When the water temperature reaches 65 degrees, all the frogs in the container jumped out without pulling.

Female biology teacher said: "When the water temperature rises to more than 60 degrees, the frog automatically jumps, indicating that its instinctive reaction to the water temperature does not vary greatly due to the speed of temperature changes. They are not stupid enough to be boiled and not to escape. Remember that even if everyone agrees with and often says the truth, it may be wrong. Truth that is universally recognized by society may also be a lie. You must experiment, investigate, and think about everything in person ."

The friend told me: "This experiment has changed his life and made him understand how important rational thinking is ."

The female biology teacher proved that the frog was not so stupid, but she ignored it, but she could be stupid to an incredible extent. The school expressed great anger at her "warm boiled frog" experiment because it was not arranged in teaching and had nothing to do with students' scores. The teacher tried his best to lay a bigger hidden danger. Later, the school made an excuse to dismiss her.

The friend said that he had never seen the honorable teacher again. He had inquired about it and had no result.

This is the story of "warm boiled frog" that I have heard. I have never done a similar experiment, but the friend gave me the impression that he was shocked by the experiment and moved by the teacher's words.

If the Chinese education environment appreciates and encourages the teacher's teaching methods, what kind of excellence should the children bring out in the future? The children love and agree with her teaching method, but they cannot change the fate of her being evicted from the campus.

Later, I accidentally talked to a foreign friend about this and asked him what he thought about "warm boiled frog? He shrugged. Sorry, he never heard of this principle, but said he would ask experts who have done experiments. Oh, it turns out that the "warm boiled frog" story, which we almost all know here, is not a global fashion.

"Warm boiled frogs" is not difficult to do, but all people prefer to directly cite the story of "warm boiled frogs" to justify the process from quantitative change to qualitative change, and do not want to make any doubts, and myself, at least before hearing this story, I and people think that frogs are so stupid.

The follow-up story of "warm boiled frog" has made me think for a long time.
