Soon, the dean and another teacher in charge of the exam handed out the test rolls to everyone.
After taking the test paper, Gu Xi read it back and forth.
There are a total of four subjects of mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology, all on one test paper, each occupying a page.
There are only 10 questions in each subject, and they are all multiple-choice questions.
At this time, the dean opened his mouth and said, "This test question is based on the questions of previous competitions, and the difficulty is similar."
"A total of 40 questions, the test time is 1 hour, everyone hurry up."
It’s not difficult to do 40 multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes, but before everyone is happy, the dean of the school made another unpleasant request: “Although it is a multiple-choice question, you must write your problem-solving process. come out."
"No, you still have to write the problem-solving process?" Don't you have to transcribe what's on the scratch paper on the test paper again
"No wonder there is so much space under each question."
"It's too much trouble..."
"Then why don't you just ask the big question."
A few whispered.
"Quiet," the dean cast a glance at the people who were speaking, and added: "Multiple-choice questions are the main type of questions in the league test, so you are asked to do multiple-choice questions. As for why you are asked to write down the problem-solving process, this is for the purpose of It is convenient for teachers to evaluate your situation and level.”
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and do it quickly."
The dean knocked on the table and announced the start of the timer. The following people finally stopped talking nonsense and started the test quietly.
Gu Xi no longer thought about it, and began to concentrate on the questions.
The first problem is a geometric calculation problem. After focusing on the key parameters of the topic, Gu Xi started to write.
However, Gu Xi stopped just after writing the first word.
The teacher just said to write down the steps to solve the problem. It seems that there is no mandatory requirement to use what method
And this is a multiple-choice question. In theory, there is only one scoring standard. Right is right or wrong, and there is no problem-solving process.
After thinking about it, Gu Xi finally did not use the conventional big problem solving method to calculate step by step, but directly drew a picture on the test paper, and marked the data relationship and numbers on the picture one by one, and it was easy to deduce this. an answer to a question.
The second question is a calculation question. The number of digits to push the answer should be 7 digits, so the answer should be between A and C.
Gu Xi took out the last digit after the decimal point of several numbers separately for calculation, and the last digit of the calculated answer was 7. Therefore, C should be chosen.
And then the third question...
I have done too many similar questions, but Gu Xi knew at first glance that B should be chosen.
However, after hesitating for two seconds, Gu Xi still wrote the simple problem-solving ideas below the question.
After getting used to this answering mode, Gu Xi's speed gradually increased.
The test room was quiet, and all I could hear was the swishing sound of the pen tip on the test paper.
From the first question to the last question, Gu Xi spent thirty minutes. Then, Gu Xi habitually checked the test paper from beginning to end before putting down the pen.
Gu Xi raised her head, the others should still be answering questions.
Only Sheng Xiuyan and Gu Chenyi did not know when they had already handed in the papers. They sat leisurely at the back of the test classroom, one playing basketball and the other sleeping.
Gu Xi retracted her gaze and decided to check it again—resolutely not to 'combine' with these two people.
…
After 60 minutes, the teacher collected everyone's test papers.
The four teachers exchanged and corrected test papers on the spot, and all eight test papers were quickly corrected.
The dean of education took the test papers of several people and read them carefully, and after discussing with several teachers, finally determined the grouping of the competition.
"Let me talk about the grouping." As he spoke, the dean wrote the grouping list on the blackboard.
"The first group, mathematics, Gu Xi, Sheng Xiuyan, Wang Zhouwei."
"The second group, chemistry..."
A total of three people participated in each set of tests.
Surprisingly, Gu Xi, Sheng Xiuyan and Gu Chenyi took the two tests alone.
Except for the first grade one in the third year of junior high school who also participated in two tests, the rest have only one test each.
Yan Jie's family is the first in the third year of junior high, which is easy to understand.
Gu Xi and the three of them are only in their second year of junior high school, why did the teacher choose them to be the leading role
The rest were puzzled.
Those few people couldn't help but leaned their heads curiously and looked at the test papers of Gu Xi and the three of them - nothing, they just wanted to see where the gap was.
After seeing it, several people were blinded.
"This..." Gu Xi's test paper was too simple.
- They used the seven or eight-step formula to figure out the question, but Gu Xi's test paper actually included three lines!
Are you sure it's not cutting corners
Forget about Gu Xi, anyway, I wrote something. What the hell are Gu Chenyi and Sheng Xiu talking about? !
Gu Chenyi's first question, like Gu Xi, drew a picture, and then he wrote something - 'From the picture, this angle is only thirty degrees, so I chose C. '
Sheng Xiuyan's criticism is even better: the first question is 'Answer: Sense of the question'.
Why don't you say that the three longs and one short are the shortest, and the three shorts and one long are the longest, so choose C!
—
"Teacher, what are your standards?" Someone couldn't help asking.
For the answers of these three people, they were all selected to participate in the math group competition. Are you sure you are not joking
The dean of education looked at the dissatisfied people and said calmly, "This is a multiple-choice question, not a solution calculation. The reason why you write the problem-solving steps is not to give you a score for each step of the problem-solving process, but to Look at your way of answering the question."
This is also the biggest difference between the competition and the general examination.
The dean paused and said, "During the competition, the method of solving the problem is not the key. Whoever can choose the correct answer with the fastest speed will be able to get more points."
Especially in the last time-limited answer, if you want to win, you have to be fast and accurate.
With that said, the dean looked at Gu Xi and the three of them here, and after thinking for a moment, he finally chose Gu Xi and Sheng Xiuyan to participate in the final round of time-limited answering questions.
She understands Sheng Xiuyan's abilities very well, and is not worried at all.
As for Gu Xi, the dean was not worried, but looked forward to it: in last year's league, she had read the answer sheet of the last test, and Gu Xi alone won the highest score in the game.
If it weren't for the fact that another student of Liming had a high error rate, and as a result, the sum of the two's total scores was lowered, their first place in the High School Affiliated to University A would have been established.
As for the reason why Gu Chenyi was 'lost' - this student had never participated in such competitions before, and the teacher was worried that he would be stage fright when he participated for the first time.
"Okay, the grouping is like this for the time being. After you go down, you should prepare according to the tests you have participated in. If there are any changes in the later stage, you will make adjustments."
Later, the dean explained some things about the league: "There are students who participated in the league for the first time, so I will tell you here that the league has a total of three days on Fridays and weekends, and the transportation and accommodation are arranged by the school. Remember to explain the situation to your parents. …”
—
In the evening, returning home, Gu Xi told Gu Shao about the league.
"... , so, a total of 3 days to go."
Hearing this, Gu Shao nodded and replied, "Yes."
Gu Shao already knew that Gu Xi was going to participate in the league. In the afternoon, when he was in a meeting, the school director Zhou made a special call to tell him about it.
Gu Xi was stunned and looked at Gu Shao: Is that so? No other explanation or something
Here, Gu Shao took his eyes back from a document in front of him, and when he looked up, he saw that Gu Xi was still standing there, with his head buried, with a tangled face, and there seemed to be a bit of loss in his eyes
"Pay attention to safety when you go out, listen to the teacher's arrangement, don't act on your own, if there is any problem, tell the teacher or call home." Gu Shao explained again.
Hearing Gu Shao's exhortation, Gu Xi finally put on a smile and assured: "Okay, I understand, don't worry, Dad."
"And..." Gu Xi said.
"What?" Gu Shao asked, looking at Gu Xi's tangled appearance.
"Nothing." Gu Xi shook his head. She originally wanted to say that the final award ceremony of the league, parents can go to watch it, but, thinking about what Xu Fei said before, Gu Shao seems to be very busy during this time, Gu Xi thinks about it, let it go.
"Good night, Dad." After saying that, Gu Xi turned around and left.
Seeing Gu Xi jumping out of the study, Gu Shao raised his eyebrows, the look in his eyes softened a little unconsciously.
—
The time soon came to Thursday afternoon.
The eight people who participated in the league were led by three teachers. They first went home to pack up, and then set off from school together.
Before going out, Aunt Mei uneasy dragged Gu Xi and warned her for a while.
"If you have anything to do, you must remember to call your family to know? You can call your family or your husband. Also, the cold medicine, fever medicine, and motion sickness medicine, Grandma Mei will put them in the suitcase for you. Remember to take the medicine, pay attention to the instructions before taking it, and show your teacher if you are not sure…”
Aunt Mei's explanation, Gu Xi nodded in cooperation, but she was a little bit dumbfounded: She only went there for three days, and it wasn't too far away or in City B, it was just a block away, how could she go on a long trip with her? Like a long time.
Gu Xi glanced at the two suitcases over there, and the corner of her mouth twitched.
Originally going out for three days, Gu Xi only packed one suitcase. As a result, if she was not careful, she had Aunt Mei add two suitcases.
"By the way, I almost forgot," Aunt Mei said, and went into the kitchen again, took a bag and handed it to Gu Xi: "This is a snack I specially made when I woke up in the morning, Xiao Xi, you can take it, and you will be on the way. eat."
Gu Xi nodded, took the bag, glanced at it, and found that there were actually two copies inside.
Aunt Mei smiled and explained: "There are two servings in total, one for Xiaoxi, and the other for other students to eat."
Only two copies, the other one for other students seems not enough, right
Gu Xi muttered silently in his heart.
Aunt Mei, the 'other classmates', was clearly referring to Gu Chenyi.
Gu Xi endured not to pierce, and nodded.
"Bring these as well. They are all snacks. If you can't get enough to eat outside, you can eat some snacks and put them on the cushion first. Don't be hungry."
Looking at the spree of food that Aunt Mei took out, Gu Xi was ashamed: "No need, there are too many to take."
Aunt Mei smiled indifferently: "It's okay, if you can't get it, you can ask your classmates to help you."
Gu Xi: "..." You don't need to think about it to know that this classmate's surname is Gu.
—
Gu Xi left home and went to school.
The car stopped near the meeting point, Gu Xi just got out of the car, and before she could stand firm, she saw Gu Chenyi appearing out of nowhere.
"Ouch, what a coincidence." Gu Chenyi walked up to Gu Xi and made an expression of 'I was just passing by and I happened to see you'.
Gu Xi: Hehe, I'll just watch you act quietly and not expose you.
"It's quite a coincidence." Gu Xipi raised the corner of his mouth towards the other side with a smile.
Here, seeing that the driver took Gu Xi's luggage out of the trunk, without waiting for Gu Xi to pick it up, Gu Chenyi had already reached out to the driver one step ahead.
"give it to me."
"No..." Gu Xi subconsciously wanted to say no.
There, the driver handed Gu Xi's luggage to Gu Chenyi without hesitation.
"It's a bit heavy." Gu Xi reminded: I don't know what Aunt Mei bumped into afterward.
"It's okay." Gu Chenyi said indifferently.
—
Facing the somewhat surprised eyes of others, Gu Chenyi helped Gu Xi put the suitcase in the car and put it away.
"That..." At this moment, Yang Mengmeng came over.
Among the eight people who participated in the league this time, there were only two girls, Gu Xi, and Yang Mengmeng, who was in the first year of junior high.
Yang Mengmeng came here originally wanting to sit with Gu Xi.
As a result, before she could finish her sentence, Gu Chenyi took the seat next to Gu Xi.
Yang Mengmeng had no choice but to go back and find another first-year classmate to sit down.
Here, watching Gu Chenyi put away the luggage of the two of them, and then sat next to her as if asking for praise, Gu Xi put on a smile, patted the other's shoulder, and said, "Thank you."
"By the way, you can take off the pink bag above." Gu Xi said, there were snacks that Aunt Mei prepared for the two of them.
"this one?"
"Hmm." Gu Xi took the bag and handed one of the boxes of dim sum to Gu Chenyi: "This is for you."
Looking at the dim sum in front of him, Gu Chenyi's eyes widened, with an incredible look on his face: "For me?"
Happiness came too suddenly, and he hadn't reacted yet.
"Don't you?" Gu Xi raised her eyebrows and asked deliberately.
"Yes!" This was given by Xixi, so far the only one for the Gu family!
And this familiar shape and familiar taste are definitely made by Aunt Mei.
Gu Chenyi was eating a piece of egg yolk cake in his mouth, and was almost moved to tears: Since Aunt Mei was taken away by the second uncle, the food at home has been going from bad to worse.
Here, after Gu Chenyi finished eating a piece of egg yolk pastry, Gu Xi had already handed over a bottle of water.
Gu Chenyi: "!" His cell phone, he must send a message to Gu Yanxiao to show off!
—
Sheng Xiuyan in the opposite seat glanced at the two people here, with a suspicious look on his face: When did the relationship between these two people become so good
No, it should be said, when did Gu Chenyi, a brain-dead, become so popular
Did these two know each other before? surnamed Gu…
Sheng Xiuyan thought of a possibility, but he quickly denied it: as far as he knew, apart from Gu Xueer, who was barely considered a Gu family member, there seemed to be no one named Gu Xi.
Sheng Xiuyan retracted his gaze indifferently, changed his posture and continued to sleep.
—
Here, while Gu Xi seemed to be asleep, Gu Chenyi took out his mobile phone, and then quietly took a group photo of the two of them. He Xixi went to the game, don't worry. 】
In the Gu family, Gu Yanxiao was so angry when he saw the news: He originally planned to sign up to go together, but Gu Chenyi robbed him.
However, soon, Gu Yanxiao lost his anger, looked at the time, waited for 2 minutes, and then privately chatted with Gu Chenyi: "You sent it to the wrong place. 】
"What?" Seeing the message from Gu Yanxiao, Gu Chenyi was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what the other party said.
"Fuck! It's over!" He posted the wrong group!
Originally, he was going to send it to the group [Happy Family] where the second uncle was there, but just slipped his hand and sent it to another group [Happy Family] with Gu Shao.
In addition, there is also a group without an uncle and without his father. They are called [Amusement Family] and [Happy Big Family]. These group names were changed by Mr. Gu.
Gu Chenyi really couldn't understand why the old man made the group names so similar! Aren't you afraid to go to the wrong group when you speak ill of a certain son? !
It happened that 2 minutes had passed, and I couldn't withdraw even if I wanted to.
So, Gu Chenyi received the first private chat in his life from his second uncle.
[The two of you are together, don't cause trouble. 】
With a simple sentence, Gu Chenyi could feel the warning coming from the phone through the phone.
[No, Er Bo, I'm definitely optimistic about Xixi. 】
[Gu Shao: I'm talking about you. 】
【I? I'm alright... 】Gu Chenyi guiltily replied.
Gu Shao didn't reply, but threw a pen to Gu Chenyi to transfer money.
Looking at the sudden money, Gu Chenyi was startled: this is the first time he has received pocket money from his second uncle besides the lucky money!
Bah, no, this is the expense of taking care of cherishing.
—
The car quickly arrived at its destination.
The teacher who led the team said to everyone: "This time our school is staying at the Maple Leaf Hotel."
In order to ensure the fairness of the league and to advertise by the way, the previous leagues were held in the comprehensive teaching experimental area in the suburbs of City B, and the accommodation issue was arranged by each school.
The Maple Leaf Hotel, Gu Xi's impression seemed to be the closest hotel to the competition site.
"This time, our school actually grabbed the Maple Leaf Hotel ahead of time, yes."
A senior in the third year of junior high sitting in the back row of Gu Xi said.
At this time, someone next to him took the words and said, "I think it's almost the same anyway."
"This time it seems that the third middle school, the sixth middle school, and Li Ming are also here."
…
When she heard the familiar words 'Liming', Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, but she didn't care too much.
- It is normal for several schools to be in the same hotel.
However, except for the final award, there is not much interaction between the school and the school, and they all prepare their own competitions.
