A: Lord Rutherford had helped me apply for a scholarship with the Royal Academy in London after my three-year government scholarship ended in 1937, but when the war broke out I felt it was a matter of national survival and I could never be at peace with myself if I stood aloof from it, so I decided to return home.
答：民國廿六年（一九三七年），三年的公費結束，魯瑟夫德教授本來已幫我申請到倫敦皇家學會獎學金，但是因為抗日戰爭爆發，我覺得這是民族生死存亡的關頭，如果置身事外，怎麼說也不能安心，同時同學也都敦促，就決定回國。
