1 2 van truong recently combined art and biology in an effort to 3 her final exam in december. while most of her college mates used lists and flashcards to memorize stuff, van used a whiteboard to write out all her notes in the form of ‘4 night', van gogh's famous masterpiece.
最近，为在12月的考试中取得拿高分，人类学专业大二学生梵·张把生物学和艺术结合在一起。她多数大学同学都用列表或卡片去记忆事物，而梵用白板记录她所有的笔记，构成梵高大作“星空”的形状。
"i knew i had to study for this exam, and i knew i'd be writing on this whiteboard for hours," she said. "so i thought, 'wouldn't it be funny if i did it in a form where people didn't know how to feel about it?'"
so when she got to smathers library on the university of florida's gainesville campus, she started to write down all her notes with the words forming a
5 of van gogh's iconic painting. three hours later, the masterpiece was complete.
truong said that the special technique helped her keep awake during the grueling study session, and actually learn more than she normally would have. "i knew if i had to read through a packet of notes, i'd fall asleep," she admitted. "i don't know if i would've lasted three hours just going through notes. i can explain
6 the order of where i placed each word on that starry night replica better than a sequence of events in
7 history."
and the reason she chose 'starry night' was because of its composition. she realized that a painting of a person might look disjointed if made out of words. but she could easily make the sentences look like van gogh's beautiful,
8 brush strokes.
