Ivan Petrovich Pavlov - The diligent boy

Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936) was a Russian psychologist. After graduating from high school, he entered the University of Pontifical University, studied natural science, he earned a master's degree in physiological studies. Because of his great achievements in the field of gastrointestinal physiology, in October 1904 he was awarded the Nobel Prize, he was the first physiologist to receive this noble award. His theory of high-level neurological activity has important value for medical research and psychology. He was dubbed "the most outstanding biologist in the world ".

At a young age, Pavlov lived in a small town in central Russia, his father was a pastor, a large family, low income, so life was relatively difficult.

Father Pavlov is very strict with his children, he teaches his children to learn carpentry by himself, and teaches them to grow vegetables. Pavlov had to help his father grow vegetables when he was very young, helping his mother to take care of housework. Pavlov is a very imaginative kid who is good at observing and doing things that shows his energy and persistence.

Back then, children in Russia liked to play the game "Nine trees", Pavlov enjoyed playing this game. Playing the game must place a ready-cut wooden "child" into a designated position, the player standing far away, using a small wooden stick thrown at the breeder, who will hit many of them. But every time they finished playing, they often lost the wooden seed because it was lost to the player. The wooden breeds in the game are often hand-picked by Pavlov.

One day, when I went to school, I asked Pavlov to go play "Nine Civet". Pavlov, who had just finished his books, rushed away, and when he got out of the door, suddenly remembered that he had not yet cut a wooden seed, Pavlov ran into the kitchen to get a milling knife and then picked up small pieces of wood and sat down on the foot of the sweet-cut staircase. Impatient friends all rush to rush, and if you want to help, like Pavlov, you don't want to do it yourself. Finishing the last seed Pavlov, who just ran off to play with his friends, Pavlov could use his left hand to hit the target, he often won.

Pavlov is a child who has patience in everything. Once, my father asked the two brothers to go to the garden to dig holes to plant trees, and the two brothers worked very hard. dig back ". My brother heard it so frustrated and sat down on the ground, not wanting to dig anymore. Pavlov did not complain about the apricot to dig up his father, the younger brother saw that, he stood up and dug along. The father and son diligently dug every bit of hard soil, and the father silently looked at the brothers for a moment and smiled happily saying, "Okay, you don't have to dig anymore . " It turned out that not the wrong digging position he did so wanted to foster your patience and challenge the two brothers. Pavlov's patience has helped him a lot to achieve success in later experiments.

Pavlov was very giddy, he had a lot of progressive books in his house, and at 13 he read many famous works. Later Pavlov gradually became interested in the science of physiology, for some biological phenomena and small experiments read in the book he felt particularly new, interesting, eager to read a lot. more than this kind of book. When studying at the school he did not like to study theology, he decided to go to Estonia to enter the school of physiology, which was his most interesting field.

Father Pavlov knew his thoughts, but he was not opposed and encouraged him: "You have chosen your path, do not be afraid of hardships, persist your way". Pavlov heard his father's advice, went to the University of Monaco alone to begin his favorite physiology.
