Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 17: 1 point deducted for typos
The marking work of this monthly exam was generally smooth, except that the Chinese marking group was a little behind.
Two days before the Golden Week holiday, the test papers for various subjects were distributed one after another.
The first thing Chen Zhou got was the English test paper.
English questions are basically objective questions, and the answer sheets are scanned and graded very quickly.
The English teacher of Science (1) class is also a female teacher, her name is Wu Mei. As her name suggests, she has a special kind of charm.
It is said that Teacher Wu Mei got married not long ago, maybe that is why she looks so charming.
But her voice was not as nice as Chen Zhou’s previous English teacher in Class (6).
After handing out the test papers, Teacher Wu Mei briefly talked about the test situation.
Since everyone did well in the exams, with the highest scores in individual subjects and the highest average scores in the class all in Class (1), she seemed to be in a very good mood.
I even joked with everyone: "You can relax during the three-day holiday, and I can relax too."
Then he began to explain the test paper.
Chen Zhou's English score was about the same as he expected, slightly better than last time, and he scored 126 points.
After looking at the score distribution more carefully, I found that the listening part had improved, and this increase directly radiated to the entire test paper.
If we only look at Chen Zhou's two English exams, it is hard to imagine that English was a weak subject for him before.
Not to mention, that was just three months ago.
When explaining the test paper, Teacher Wu Mei was very thorough. She would analyze each phrase and grammar in detail.
And this was exactly what Chen Zhou wanted. His English foundation was not solid, and all his achievements were achieved by expanding his vocabulary in a short period of time.
Teacher Wu Mei’s explanation just helped him consolidate his foundation.
After the English class, the second test paper Chen Zhou received was mathematics.
113 points.
There is progress, but it is not good, nor is it bad.
Compared with the grade average, his score is good. Compared with the class average, his score is average. Compared with Zhang Yifan, he is 18 points behind. Compared with Yang Yiyi, he is 23 points behind.
Therefore, test scores are afraid of comparison. Once compared, Chen Zhou feels that he is so bad.
This is just the test paper from the preliminary review. When it comes to the baseline test, if a comprehensive test paper is given, wouldn’t that be even worse?
Chen Zhou realized that improving mathematics was urgent!
Not daring to daydream anymore, Chen Zhou followed the thoughts of his homeroom teacher, Wang Xuehui, and followed his steps in explaining the test paper, so as to understand and digest the questions he had answered wrongly!
The only thing that made Chen Zhou happy was that he did not make any stupid mistakes in this math test. He got all the points he deserved, and he also triggered a hidden task to be unlocked.
One math class is not enough to fully explain an entire test paper, but because the time is not as tight as the class placement test, the teacher did not arrange consecutive classes.
Chen Zhou was very reluctant to leave, but he had to temporarily interrupt his thoughts of following Teacher Wang Xuehui, said goodbye, and waited for the next math class to see him again.
The last two classes in the morning are physics and biology.
Chen Zhou received Golden Week gifts from two teachers.
In this exam, I scored 80 in physics and 61 in biology. There were no highlights, just a normal performance.
When it came to the first class in the afternoon, it was supposed to be a Chinese class, but it was the chemistry teacher who came, so they changed the class.
Chen Zhou signed for the gift from his chemistry teacher first, with a score of 74.
In this way, I have collected all three subjects in science, and my total score in science is 215, which just passes the good line, but is a bit dangerous.
Chen Zhou silently gave a warning in his heart.
Now the only thing left is Chinese. Chen Zhou prayed quietly: "Xiao Liangdian, hold on! Whether you can have a good vacation depends on you."
During the last class that afternoon, Chinese teacher Xu Shaowen walked into the classroom with a test paper in hand and a slightly bulging belly.
As usual, Xu Shaowen first talked about the overall situation: "The situation of this exam is within my expectations based on my many years of experience. It is basically the same. The difficulty of the exam is not too high, just slightly higher than the college entrance examination. To be specific, the composition and poetry appreciation are slightly difficult."
"But don't worry, everyone. The grade average is 102.7 points, and our (1) class average is definitely higher than that. It won't affect your happy vacation."
"If you do the math, it seems like this is the only decent vacation you have until the college entrance exam."
When everyone heard Xu Shaowen's words, their tense mood relaxed at first, but then they wanted to hit him.
Xu Shaowen then called up the Chinese class representative and asked her to distribute the test papers.
As if he had thought of something, he added, "I want to praise Chen Zhou again for this Chinese exam. Although his Chinese score was not the highest, only 133, his composition scored 59 points, the highest score in the grade. Well, he was the only one. Originally, this composition should have been given a full score, which is 60 points, but unfortunately there was a typo, so 1 point was deducted."
As he spoke, Xu Shaowen looked at Chen Zhou in the last row with a complicated look in his eyes: "Last time, Chen Zhou scored 55 points for his Chinese composition. This time he did even better. He did very well."
"What the hell?" Zhang Yifan and Chen Haining looked at Chen Zhou almost at the same time.
Zhang Yifan complained: "Who said that he didn't do well in the Chinese test?"
Chen Haining also said: "Who said that he was not sure about his Chinese?"
"I'm really not sure. It's because of a typo that I lost 1 point." Chen Zhou replied, but he was very happy in his heart.
Chen Haining and Zhang Yifan looked at Chen Zhou speechlessly.
When the Chinese class representative Zhang Huihui handed out the test paper to Chen Zhou, she couldn't help but take a few more glances at Chen Zhou's composition.
She has always had the highest score in Chinese in the class, last time and this time as well.
But his writing is not as good as Chen Zhou's.
After Chen Zhou got the test paper, he turned directly to the composition part.
A bright red number 59 was printed on it, and there was a typo circled in red in the composition.
Don’t worry about all these, this is a perfect essay!
The little bright spot is indeed a little bright spot and has never let me down!
Chen Zhou couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Before he had time to appreciate his masterpiece again, Zhang Yifan had already reached out and took it.
"'Inside and Outside', my god, it's really written as prose? It's about love... love?" Zhang Yifan was completely confused after reading it.
"What?" Chen Haining faced Xu Shaowen's gaze, turned back and negotiated, and took away Chen Zhou's test paper.
After reading it, he forced himself to return it, leaving only one sentence: "Brother Chen, awesome!"
Chen Zhou's movement naturally attracted the attention of many classmates. Unfortunately, there were many people in the classroom and Chen Zhou was sitting in the last row.
The students in the front row wanted to see but couldn't, and the students in the back row had to turn around if they wanted to see, which caused some chaos in the classroom.
Xu Shaowen knocked on the table, signaling for silence: "If you want to read it, go after class. After class, Chen Zhou can post the composition on the blackboard at the back. Now let's start explaining the test paper."
