Common sense information

1. What common sense information do you have about studying in France?

To study in France, you should know the basic knowledge of France. Let me show you some common sense information about France.

Q: What are the denominations of Euro? A: There are seven denominations of euro banknotes, namely 5 euros, 10 euros, 20 euros, 50 euros, 100 euros, 200 euros and 500 euros. Euro banknotes printed by countries in the euro zone have the same front and back.

Euro tokens have eight denominations, namely 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 1 and 2 euros. One side of these tokens has the same pattern, symbolizing the 12 star of the European Union, and the other side can be designed by each EMU participating country.

Generally, cash above 100 euros is rarely used, and cash of 500 euros is likely to be rejected in many places. Q: Is there a time difference between France and China? A: Paris is located in the sunrise time zone, and the time difference with Beijing is -7.

That is, it is 7 hours later than Beijing time at ordinary times and 6 hours later than Beijing time in summer time. Q: I heard that UnionPay cards can also be used in some shopping malls. Is it true?/You don't say. A: Yes, UnionPay cards can be used at ATMs in Galeries Lafayette, Paris Spring, Paris Look (Paris Image), LKCI (Le Kai), Benlux, FOOX, Paris Eiffel (Haitian), and also at CA (French Agricultural Credit Bank), LCL (credit lyonnais), Savings Bank and Citibank on the main street corners of Paris. At present, about 20,000 ATMs in France can accept UnionPay cards.

The automatic teller machines (ATMs) with the "UnionPay" logo can accept UnionPay cards, and the ATM inquiry function is temporarily closed. Some ATMs may not be labeled with UnionPay logo. Cardholders can confirm that the terminal can use UnionPay cards through the "CA" logo of France Agricultural Credit Group, the logos of France credit lyonnais and France Savings Bank Group, and the logo of Citibank posted on ATMs.

In France, the order of ATM withdrawal is to spit out the card first and then the bill. Please try to withdraw cash with UnionPay debit card.

Because the credit card fee is high, it is about 2% of the cash withdrawal amount (different banks may have slight differences), and overdraft interest is also paid, which is generally five ten thousandths per day. Visa card is recommended, which is acceptable in most places. Generally, you can swipe your card for 5 euros, 8 euros, 15 euros, and the bus ticket vending machine can swipe your card for 1 euros.

However, it should be noted that credit cards in France generally have chips, so it is best to apply for visa cards with chips in China. master card is also widely used, and American Express is not accepted in many places. Large chain enterprises generally accept credit cards such as Dalai, and the acceptance rate is low. Q: Is the voltage in France the same as ours? A: The current voltage in France is 230 volts and 50 hertz.

Therefore, household appliances can be directly connected to local alternating current. But the plug used in France is a cylindrical German standard plug.

Therefore, household electrical plugs generally need to be connected through a power converter. Q: How to use public transport? A: 1. Bus: The bus fare in the city is still relatively expensive, and each city is different. The fare for cities without subways and trams is generally 1.

1 to 1. About 3 euros, cities with subways or light rails are generally 1.

Four to two. Between six o'clock.

If you don't like cycling, students with cars can consider buying monthly tickets or annual tickets. The bigger the purchase amount, the cheaper it will be. 2. Subway: In France, only big cities have subways, such as Paris, Lyon and Marseille. Subway tickets and bus tickets are more common, and the validity of one-way tickets is usually 1 hour or 1.5 hours, during which you can do whatever you want.

The subway in France is famous for its convenience and speed. In Paris, the subway can reach every corner.

3. Train: Students who need to take TGV frequently, aged between 12 and 25, can enjoy great discounts. The youth card provided by SNCF can enjoy a 40% discount on train tickets for only 49 euros. The discount range is generally between 25% and 60% according to the time line of trains.

Living in France is a paradise for international students, and students enjoy many discounts in their lives. University canteens (RU), student apartments, housing subsidies, medical insurance, and price reductions in transportation and entertainment (movies, sports activities, libraries, student associations, etc.). ) It allows international students studying in France to meet their basic needs and enjoy life with little money.

Sports and culture: 5366 cinemas (of which 140 is a compound cinema), 333000 performances (national opera house, theaters and some private theaters) and 1200 museums, which enrich your life. In addition, music festivals, opera festivals, dance festivals, and various cultural and sports activities from science and technology to food will enrich the cultural life of international students.

Understand the common sense of studying in France (2) #e# All cultural places in France offer discounts to students, and there are many ways to choose from. Experts studying in France explained that the identity of students also brought convenience to sports activities: many stadiums were open to students; In addition, the sports clubs in French universities are very active and welcome foreign students to join.

French institutions of higher learning are generally located in the city center, not far from various cultural facilities in French cities-museums, bookstores, cinemas, theaters, cafes, etc. Accommodation in France Before you start looking for accommodation in France, you need to determine what kind of housing to look for according to factors such as residence status, economic conditions and residence time.

Housing prices in France are relatively high, but international students can enjoy the same housing subsidies as French students. University apartments located in university towns or cities are managed by the Regional University and School Affairs Management Center (CROUS).

The apartment has a single room of 10 to 12 square meters, usually with furniture. The average rent of such houses ranges from 130 to 240 euros per month.

Due to the shortage of college apartments, it is very difficult to apply for college apartments, especially in Paris. Because these accommodation places are usually reserved for scholarship holders, especially foreign students enjoying French scholarships have priority.

Remarks: Different from public universities, French colleges or private schools often have student apartments on campus, and the monthly rent is roughly between 250 and 350 euros. This private apartment rented by college students is divided into two parts.

2. What is the common sense information about studying abroad in American high schools?

The complete set of application materials for studying in American high schools include: application fee, application form, recommendation letter, personal statement, resume, proof of studying and transcript/degree certificate, official GT and cover letter.

In this regard, this paper briefly introduces the application fees and application forms for studying in American high schools. There are three ways to pay the application fee for studying in the United States. One is to pay by credit card, the other is to draft, and the last one is to pay at the end of online application, that is, to fill in the credit card number and validity period when applying for the thesis and send it to the school for deduction.

If you can pay by credit card, don't apply for a bill of exchange, because there are transaction costs and domestic banks charge different fees. American high school application forms (some schools attach scholarship application forms or department application forms, and some are in duplicate) generally include other information besides personal basic information, such as admission time.

Whether it is the first time to apply or not, where do citizens (generally choose Asia Pacific) want money, and whether they can come without money (this does not affect admission), some schools will also ask me which direction I want to focus on. The application form needs to be capitalized in many places, so pay attention when filling it out! In addition, the application form can also be filled in with ACOBAT, especially downloaded, which is very convenient to print after filling out. Remember to use A4 paper to avoid filling in mistakes and re-filling.

4. The latest scientific and technological information common sense this year

Nano-silica, humanoid robot, power equipment, "bionic eye" made by American scientists, and aerial car. Look at the latest scientific and technological achievements, even if you have new scientific and technological knowledge, 1. Japan has developed anti-drowsiness seats to improve driving safety. Extreme fatigue often makes people doze off during driving, which will greatly increase the incidence of traffic accidents.

A research team at the University of Tokyo has recently developed an anti-drowsiness chair, which helps to solve this problem. According to local media reports, after observing the blood flow and breathing state of people when they doze off, the researchers found that the blood flow of human peripheral blood vessels will increase to some extent before entering the doze state.

This kind of seat can detect this change from the driver's back by using the electromagnetic sensor and pressure sensor installed in the backrest and give a warning. The researchers pointed out that, similar to the changes of the human body before dozing off, the blood flow and breathing state will also change after drinking alcohol.

In the future, the research team also plans to develop an "anti-drunk driving seat" that can't start the car when drinking. American scientists made "bionic eye" to help the blind recover their sight. American scientists say that bionic eye implants will be provided within two years to help millions of blind people recover their sight.

American researchers were allowed to install the bionic eye for 50 to 70 patients in five treatment centers within two years. The "Argus II" system is named after Agrus, a giant with 100 eyes in Greek mythology, and uses a camera mounted on glasses to transmit visual signals to electrodes in the eyes.

Patients who have received less advanced artificial retina transplantation before can "see" the movement of light, images and objects. But the image is not clear enough.

A blind man had the operation on 1999. Now he can avoid long or low branches on the street, but when he looks at people, he seems to see a black shadow. However, scientists at the University of California said that their bionic eye tried to get real-time images from the camera, then converted them into weak electrical signals and sent them to a receiver. After passing through the electrode, the visual nerve of retina sends a signal to the brain, so that the blind can "see" the scene.

This new device is smaller than the traditional artificial retina, but it has as many as 60 electrodes, which makes the resolution higher. The area is only one square millimeter, and the implantation operation is easier.

The world's first quantum computer was born in Canada. Gini Ross, chief technology officer of D-Wave in Vancouver, Canada, announced that the company has successfully developed an Orion quantum computer with 16 qubit. He revealed that D-Wave will show their quantum computers in California and Vancouver, Canada on February 13 and February 15, 2007 respectively.

Quantum computer is a concept put forward by physicist Feynman in the 1980s of 19. Quantum bits can represent 1 and 0 at the same time, so they can carry more information and solve problems faster.

Quantum computers hope to use quantum phenomena to improve the computing speed. The biggest feature is that n storage bits can store 2N data at the same time. However, the biggest problem of quantum computers is that they will shut down as long as they are subjected to any micro-interference, such as overheating.

So far, quantum computers can only operate successfully for thousands of times in the laboratory, and the stability is still not enough. The 16 qubit computer currently designed by D-Wave Company is made of precious metal niobium, and it must run at-273 K. ..

Some experts believe that D-Wave's attempt is only a principle test. Although it is necessary, the inevitable mistakes in quantum computing must be corrected first, otherwise the quantum computer will not run. Many scientists believe that it will take another 20 years for quantum computers to be widely commercialized.

But Ross thinks that in 2008, they will make the world's first quantum computer with 1000 qubit. American scientists created bionic eye to help blind people recover their sight. American scientists say that bionic eye implants will be provided within two years to help millions of blind people recover their sight.

American researchers were allowed to install the bionic eye for 50 to 70 patients in five treatment centers within two years.

5. EPC technology project content and application field: EPC technology is a new casting method, in which the model made of foamed plastics (EPS) is buried in dry sand without binder, compacted by micro-vibration negative pressure, and liquid metal is injected without core or riser, and the foamed plastics are replaced by metal after gasification during casting solidification. One-step molding, high dimensional accuracy. Greatly improve the environmental conditions of the foundry workshop and easily realize pollution-free production; The shape and structure of castings are not limited, which provides sufficient freedom for product design; Low manufacturing cost and less equipment investment. 6. Nano-silica nano-silica micro-powder technology is a new technology that has just started in China.

Because of its large specific surface area, strong adsorption and large surface energy, micropowder has special properties and plays an irreplaceable role in many disciplines and fields. The developed countries in the world are very active in the research of ultrafine materials and have achieved certain results.

It has excellent stability, reinforcement, thickening and thixotropy, and has been widely used in rubber, coating, medicine, paper making, daily chemical and other fields.

5. Basic literary knowledge about news

News refers to a style that newspapers, radio stations, television stations, the Internet and other media often use to record and disseminate information. It is a style of recording society, spreading information and reflecting the times. The concept of news has broad sense and narrow sense.

Broadly speaking, in addition to comments and articles published in newspapers, radio, internet and television, common words belong to news, including news, newsletters, features, sketches (some of which also include sketches in features) and so on. In a narrow sense, news is to report the recent valuable facts in the neighborhood quickly and timely in a general narrative way and with more concise words, so that a certain group of people can understand them.

News generally includes five parts: title, introduction, theme, background and conclusion. The first three are the main parts, and the last two are the auxiliary parts. The writing method is mainly narrative, supplemented by discussion, description and comment. News is a news service platform containing massive information, which truly reflects important events at all times.
