Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 18: Going Home for Vacation
This time the Chinese test paper was set by Maochang High School itself. Because it was not all original questions like last time, Xu Shaowen explained it in more detail.
Combined with the problem-solving routines taught in previous classes, we will teach you how to use them flexibly in the exam.
Chen Zhou listened carefully and took notes.
He didn't expect that he actually chose the wrong question about spelling errors. No wonder, there was a spelling error in the composition.
The Chinese class is over and all the afternoon classes are over.
Chen Zhou waited for a while, prepared to post the test paper on the blackboard at the back, and then went to eat.
But what he didn't expect was that many classmates had been looking at him and waiting since the get out of class was over.
Chen Zhou stood up and walked to the blackboard at the back, and somewhat embarrassedly posted the test paper on the display area of the blackboard.
After posting it, I took a look and thought, well, the words are good, the sentences are good, and the combination is even better.
Seeing that some classmates had gathered around him, Chen Zhou quickly pulled away and left the classroom.
When Chen Zhou returned to the classroom again, the blackboard was already crowded with people, some of whom even bought sesame cakes and ate them while reading.
This also directly resulted in the students in the back rows having almost no place to step.
"Fuck, Chen Zhou is really awesome. He dares to write such an essay in the exam!"
"I really don't know where I got the courage from. Although there is no limit to the style of writing, and although there is nothing wrong with writing prose, it is really difficult to write about love..."
"I can't stand it, I can't stand it..."
"But then again, the examiner is really brave to give such a high score. Isn't he afraid that other students will follow suit?"
"This is not a question of imitation. You can't learn it at all. Moreover, this essay has correct values and beautiful writing. It would be inappropriate not to give it a high score. Look here, there are so many red dots. The examiner must have marked them with a pen at least a few hundred times. I guess he was thinking about how many points to give, and then he happened to see a typo, so he could deduct 1 point. So 59 points is fine."
Chen Zhou finally squeezed back to his seat and heard the discussions of his classmates. There was actually a Sherlock Holmes among them.
He felt strange at first, wondering why there were so many red dots on the test paper. But after listening to Holmes' words, it seemed to make sense.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but wonder if I was making things difficult for the examiner.
You can watch it, but there is nothing to be envious of. You can't be envious even if you want to. Besides, the real owner is sitting there, so it's not appropriate for you to comment.
After the novelty wore off, everyone returned to their seats.
Only a few students with excellent Chinese grades were still standing there, including Yang Yiyi and the Chinese class representative Zhang Huihui.
They left one by one when class was about to start.
"Brother Chen, you haven't noticed that those students with good Chinese grades have looks of envy and jealousy in their eyes..." After everyone had left, Chen Haining turned around and whispered to Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou did not comment.
Zhang Yifan said, "Read your books carefully. Improving your grades is the key. You talk too much."
Chen Haining said, " I just think that Brother Chen has brought honor to us. Apart from Yang Yiyi's good grades, few other students in our Class (6) are outstanding. Do you still remember the nasty things they said about Brother Chen after the last class placement test when he was placed in Class (1) because he ranked last? This time, I feel relieved. When this essay of yours is published in the school magazine, it will definitely shock a lot of people again..."
"Stop. They just think that our arrival has split up their original class and squeezed out the classmates they just met. It's normal to have a little reaction. After all, we are classmates now, so don't say this in the future. Besides, they are all students with excellent grades. You can only make them recognize you if you do better in the exams." Zhang Yifan glanced around and stopped Chen Haining from speaking.
Chen Zhou also said: "Yifan is right, we are all classmates, there is no need."
"Okay, anyway, Brother Chen, you are my role model. Your love essay, your "Inside and Outside", has conquered me." Chen Haining looked flattering.
"Don't look back, you're so disgusting..." Chen Zhou pushed Chen Haining and made him sit up straight.
"Was he like this before?" Chen Zhou asked Zhang Yifan with a frown on his face.
"I don't know. Don't look at me. I'm not familiar with him." Zhang Yifan looked at Chen Haining with disdain.
"Brother Chen, I think what Haining said is actually right. I am also your fan..." Chen Haining did not turn around, but his deskmate Li Xiang turned around and said.
"The teacher is here." Chen Zhou said helplessly, and immediately pretended to study hard.
Li Xiang was so scared that he quickly turned around, straightened his back, picked up the pen and did the question in one go.
After writing for a while, he realized something was wrong. He looked up and saw that there was no one there. Just as he was about to turn around, Chen Zhou pushed him back.
Because there was still one day left before the Golden Week holiday, the evening self-study class still followed the original schedule and was not used to explain the test papers.
Instead, the teachers completed the task of explaining the test papers during the regular class on the second day.
It has to be said that the profession of teacher seems to be the most accurate in calculating time.
After school in the afternoon, the head teacher Wang Xuehui came to the classroom to mop the hall.
First, each student was given a report card and asked to take it home for their parents to sign.
He also reminded us of some things to pay attention to during the holidays, and asked the students whose grades he circled in red on their transcripts to bring their apologies and parents to see him for a talk after the holidays.
Then it was announced that considering the students who lived far away, the evening self-study class was cancelled and the holiday had begun.
Chen Zhou got the score sheet and took a look at the score and ranking first.
Total score 587, grade ranking 147.
Although the total score was close to 600, the grade ranking only rose to around 20th.
It seems that the test paper was generally simple this time, and everyone did very well.
Chen Zhou’s main problem now began to emerge, like a bottleneck.
His Chinese and English can be improved as long as he works hard, but his mathematics and comprehensive science require more time and effort.
However, this ranking at least got rid of the last place.
Afterwards, Chen Zhou flipped through the report card and searched for a long time before he confirmed that there was indeed .
After thinking about it, I decided not to ask Wang Xuehui. He is not the kind of student who would bother the teacher during the holidays.
While packing up, Zhang Yifan glanced at Chen Zhou's report card and said, "Chen Zhou, you have improved again."
"There has been progress, but I'm still not as good as you." Chen Zhou also saw Zhang Yifan's results. His total score broke through 600 and reached 609 points.
"It's different. I tested at my original level and didn't make any progress, but you have been making progress." Zhang Yifan said seriously.
"It's not meant to be offensive..." Chen Zhou curled his lips.
Zhang Yifan’s words were indeed quite discouraging, as if I have always been stronger than you, and although you are getting stronger, I am still stronger than you.
"Are you going out to play during the holidays?" Chen Haining turned around and asked.
Chen Zhou and Zhang Yifan ignored him.
After returning to the rental house and sorting out his study materials, Chen Zhou went to the bus station where there was the last bus home.
