In May 1900 Yan Fu (1854-1921) fled Tianjin for Shanghai following the outbreakof the Boxer Rebellion. While Yan Fu was in Shanghai, a young man from Jiangxi namedXiong Yuan'E (1879-1906) came to pay his respects to him, and eventually became YanFu's favorite student. Even after Yan Fu returned to Beijing in March 1901, Xiong Yuan'E continued writing to him for advice. After studying under Yan Fu, Xiong took first place in the Jiangxi provincial examinations in 1903. One of the questions on the exam concerned reform of the educational system and the establishment of modern academic disciplines. In terms of both language usage and content, Xiong's test answers naturally refl ected Yan Fu's profound infl uence. In this paper, articles written by Yan Fu and the test answers given by Xiong Yuan'E are analyzed to explore Yan's and Xiong's principalideas on the issues of science and education, and to reveal heretofore unknown details of the relationship between the two men.
