    A training center in Beijing recently opened a new course, which claims to
help students absorb energy from the universe through a special cabin built
according to the angles of the pyramids. Staff at the center said that a
nine-day course costs 20,000 RMB. Local police are currently investigating the
case.
    北京一家培训机构最近开设了一项新课程，声称可以通过一个按照金字塔角度修建的特殊小屋帮助学生吸收宇宙能量。据该培训机构的工作人员表示，一场为期9天的课程收费2万元人民币。当地警方目前正在调查这起案件。
    A girl surnamed Xiaoyu, who was sent to the training camp by her mother,
told Beijing Morning Post about the content of the so-called training.
    小雨被她母亲送到了该机构接受培训，她向《北京晨报》透露了关于所谓“培训”的内容。
    "They told me to sit in an ’energy cabin’ and imagine my body floating in
the air," said Xiaoyu, adding that she was instructed to write poems after she
came out of the cabin. Meanwhile, another girl was told to sleep on the floor
for three days, during which time she was given only three apples and a small
amount of water to consume, according to Xiaoyu. Such "training" is supposed to
refresh both the body and mind.
    小雨说道：“他们叫我坐在一个‘能量舱’里，并且想象我的身体漂浮在空中。”据小雨表示，当她从能量舱中出来之后，便被要求写诗。与此同时，小雨透露说另外一名女孩被要求在地板上睡三天，期间只被允许吃了三个苹果、饮用了少量的水。据称这样“培训”的目的是要洁净人的身体和思想。
    Tao, an instructor at the center, said that the training is designed to
expand and change students’ way of thinking. Instead of traditional
memorization-based teaching, the training helps students to receive knowledge
through their brains’ natural instincts, Tao said. He also promised that
students’ Chinese would be greatly improved after two days of study, and that
academic performance in every subject would soar if students trained for nine
days.
    据该培训中心一名姓陶的老师表示说，这种培训的目的是为了扩展和改变学生的思维方式。据陶老师表示，该培训机构摒弃了传统的死记硬背教学模式，帮助学生通过他们大脑的自然本能来接受知识。他还表示经过两天的学习之后，学生的语文成绩将会大幅提高，而且如果学生接受9天的培训的话，每一科成绩都会大为改善。
    Tao said that the center has trained more than 200 students nationwide, and
they have verified the ability of the energy cabin to function as a refreshing
force.
    据陶老师表示，该机构已经培训来自全国各地的200多名学生，而这些人已经证明了能量舱的洁净力量的确有效果。
    Now the case has been reported to police, and further investigation will be
carried out.
    目前这起案件已经被通报给了警方，并将进行进一步调查。
