Su's father heard from Su Xingyang that Su Xingchen was going to participate in the city-level competition. He was both happy and nervous. He boasted in almost every store, saying that his family, Su Xingyang and Su Xingchen, would represent the school in the city. The competition thing.
Having fun, I wanted to call Su Xingchen, but I didn't dare, for fear of arousing her rebellious psychology. After thinking for a long time, I decided to send her a message, telling her not to be nervous, take the exam well, and pay attention to rest.
He also asked Su Xingyang to bring her seven or eight competition books, all of which he bought at the bookstore on purpose.
Su's father still wanted to make up lessons for Su Xingchen, but Su Xingchen would definitely not be able to make up for it, so he wanted to make up for Su Xingyang.
Su's father is still very confident about his physics grades. When he was young, he had good grades in science, and he was scolded by Su's mother before he stopped.
Su Xingyang also heaved a sigh of relief.
What Su's father learned in the early years has already been returned to the teacher, and Su's father is not a teacher, his teaching level is far worse than that of professional teachers. Su Xingyang was tutored by Su's father when he was young, it was a nightmare.
She didn't refuse the book that Su's father asked Su Xingyang to bring her. The only request she had for them was that as long as they didn't care about her or interfere with her life, the rest should be treated like ordinary relatives.
The books he brought her were of some use.
Traveling back for such a long time, although Su Xingchen is very active in her studies, she is still in a passive state when it comes to the competition class. All the books she has read, all the questions and test papers she has studied are all sent by the teacher of the competition class and asked her to study. , I asked her to read it, and I haven't taken the initiative to buy similar books to read.
Like Shen Jinghong, as a liberal arts student in a science competition class, she has written more than a dozen competition books.
Otherwise, what is she doing there every day
Su Xingchen didn't have time to read all the competition books, so he found a comprehensive one. It's rare that he didn't practice, so he concentrated on studying the questions.
This time it was a city-level competition, which was different from the district-level competition. The top students from the entire city gathered here.
As soon as they got in the car, the teachers began to tell Zhao Moqin and other top students.
The teachers placed high hopes on Zhao Moqin.
This is not only because he is a god of learning in the third year of high school, but also because his grandfather is a mathematics teacher and his grandmother is a physics teacher. He grew up in a foreign language school and started learning Olympiad since elementary school.
Mathematics competition, to put it bluntly, the things in the books are just a basic introduction. The junior high school Olympiad has good grades, and it is much easier to get started with the high school Olympiad. Zhao Moqin was the school's seed player in junior high school. The national league, this year is the most likely student of their school to break into the national league and enter the IMO on behalf of the school.
You know, although their school is partial to science, the most important feature of their school is foreign languages. No. 2 Middle School and Juncheng High School are the real strong science schools in H City. Some schools in their own city, even in other provinces, are actively organizing summer camps with No. 2 Middle School or Juncheng High School in H City, in order to learn from them.
Province Z itself is in the first group among the strong provinces in the competition, and the No. 2 Middle School and Juncheng High School are also the first group in the first group.
The foreign language high school probably belongs to the third group in the first group. If it is calculated by the national team, it is probably equivalent to the second or even third team in the back.
As for the group of sophomores, not to mention, the substitute players are not even considered, it is equivalent to the youth training team in the football field, the kind that sends talents to the main players.
It's not that there are no sophomores who have entered the national league, but very few of them are rare in the country, and basically they can't win the first prize unless they are really math geniuses.
Even for a student like Zhao Moqin, who is already considered very talented in mathematics, he has almost finished reading all the competition books on the market as early as the second year of high school, and he is still reading "Olympiad Classic" every day.
As for Su Xingchen, to be able to enter the city-level competition this time, to be honest, even the teachers who taught the math competition class were surprised.
The foundation is too bad.
Because their foreign language school has a large number of recommended places and many students go abroad, the requirements for students are not so strict. For the experimental class, they are required to complete all the content of the three years of high school in the second and second years of high school.
Like the key classes of No. 2 Middle School and Juncheng High School, all high school content is required to be completed in the first year of high school. Famous inequalities such as triangular deformation, Cauchy mean, derivatives, and solid geometry are not to be mentioned. Extremely proficient, mastering it well is a must.
What will Su Xingchen do? The three years of junior high school were wasted, and even if it was supplemented later, her foundation is completely incomparable to that of Zhao Moqin, who started participating in the Math Olympiad competition in elementary school. Even Shen Jinghong has written more than a dozen competition books. Su Xingchen...she It was too late to make an effort. I just entered the competition class one month before the end of the last semester. I went to the training camp for 20 days during the summer vacation, and then I was intensively taught by the teachers for a month when the school started.
If she surprised the teachers, it is probably because of her amazing learning ability. She is really like a sponge, improving at an astonishing speed. After the day, I came out with a score of 96 on the test.
But it was too late for her to exert her strength!
The first semester of high school is almost over before I start working hard, no matter how strong my learning ability is, it will be too late.
Mathematics competitions are not just something that can be done with strong learning ability. You need to do a lot of competition questions. To put it bluntly, a large number of questions is king!
Tens of thousands of people in a province participated in the competition, and all those who were able to stand out in the end were able to rank within one or two hundred of the provincial results.
Su Xingchen can temporarily take the first place in their school, but can he be ranked in the top 200 in the provincial results
Not to mention that there are four key high schools in front of their school, there are several famous key high schools in their province Z that are not in city H.
So it's no wonder that the main energy of the teachers is on Zhao Moqin and the others.
As for Shen Jinghong, if she had chosen science, maybe the teachers would have paid the same attention, but she chose liberal arts. In the eyes of the teachers, this is probably a bias in her heart. She thinks that she is more suitable for liberal arts. , so even if she is still studying mathematics at the same time, and her grades in the competition class are not bad, the teachers will exclude her from science first.
It was an unexpected surprise to be able to win an award, and it seemed to be no surprise if he could not win an award.
City-level competitions are no different from district-level competitions, mainly because of examinations.
Su Xingchen met several classmates from the previous summer camp in the examination room.
They were surprised when they saw Su Xingchen. They didn't expect that she had passed the district-level exam and entered the city-level, but they still greeted her with a smile.
Those in the class who had never entered the competition class before also looked at her curiously.
Their attitude is actually quite relaxed,
It's just that the questions this time are much more difficult than last time. Su Xingchen obviously hastened to struggle, but her questions during this period are not for nothing. Whether she is reading or brushing questions, she is very fast and efficient in learning. Also very high.
After coming out of the examination room, most of the people's faces were a little heavy, and it was obvious that they all felt strenuous.
Especially the few students in the second year of high school.
Even Shen Jinghong lost the relaxed look on his face.
But the teachers felt that it was normal for her to behave like this, because she was a liberal arts student.
She is the only liberal arts student among all the science competition students in Foreign Language High School.
The teachers were all asking how the third-year students were doing in the exam, mainly looking at Zhao Moqin, but it turned out that Zhao Moqin had an iceberg face of abstinence that had never changed, which made the teachers thump in their hearts: "Is this test paper difficult? "
The people in the car were all talking: "It's difficult, it's so difficult!" Then they started talking about the topic.
The teacher looked at Zhao Moqin, Zhao Moqin saw the teachers looking at him eagerly, finally the corners of his lips raised slightly, and nodded: "Fortunately, it's all done."
Hearing what he said, the teachers finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't put too much pressure on you. How do you take the test normally, and how to take the test this year. You entered the National League last year. You will definitely have no problem this year."
Entering the national league does not mean entering the winter camp, and entering the winter camp does not mean entering the training team.
There are only 100 people in the winter camp, and only 30 people in the training team, all of whom are top mathematics talents from across the country. A slight mistake may cause you to pass by the winter camp and the training team.
Zhao Moqin, who was only a sophomore last year, almost entered the winter camp.
The school felt that it was a pity that he didn't go in, so this year he placed high hopes on him, not to mention entering the IMO to win a gold and silver award, at least the first prize at the provincial level, no problem, right
But they didn't dare to say that, because after the last district-level competition exam, Zhao Moqin suddenly seemed to be a different person. He was still a boy in white clothes before. Who would have thought that after an exam, although his face remained the same, his expression didn't seem to have changed much, but the teachers' sensitive hair style made the air pressure around him suddenly become extremely low.
It's only mid-October, and it feels like winter is coming. Is it because they put too much pressure on Zhao Moqin
It's the third year of high school, and it's also a competition. There is a lot of pressure, and I can understand it.
Back at school, I still study in the competition class, but this time, the teachers in the competition class have completely given up on the second graders, and all the focus is on the senior three seed players in the competition class, including teacher Ke Yike, For the few people in the second year of high school, they are completely regarded as auditors. They are willing to learn and learn as much as they can learn. At the same time, they are given a lot of test papers and questions. The unimportant courses were all occupied by competition classes.
A week later, the test results of the municipal league came out. When the teacher saw the list of passed ones, he was really surprised. When the list was correct, the teacher's face twisted unexpectedly.
