Chapter 257: Gifted
Half an hour later, the oral test began.
There were still nine people, taking turns to take the test, with Lin An ranked sixth.
"Lin Anan, please come forward."
Although the contents of the tests taken by the previous few people were different, Lin Anan understood the general direction.
Lin Anan walked forward calmly, sat down quietly, and nodded to the examiners with a smile.
Start with a self-introduction, and use expression to give a comprehensive introduction of yourself.
Including but not limited to name, age, daily life, ideals, etc.
Lin Anan's voice is gentle and pleasant, her tone is natural and fluent, and her content is rich and logical.
Her self-introduction was different from everyone else's. Starting from her own life experience and combining it with the current international situation, she deeply discussed the importance of cultural exchanges and put forward some constructive views.
The examiners listened very attentively and nodded from time to time.
When Lin Anan was answering questions, she had clear ideas and answered fluently, which made the examiners praise her abilities.
The other reference personnel were also stunned.
There's nothing you can do about it, language is like that, as soon as someone opens their mouth you know if she's good enough...
After the oral test, Lin Anan walked out of the examination room, feeling relieved.
She knew she had tried her best and performed well. Now she just had to wait for the Russian language test in the afternoon.
Lin Anan walked out, ready to have some lunch.
At this moment, two people trotted over and said, "Comrade Lin, Comrade Lin, wait a minute."
Lin Anan turned around and saw two very similar faces. "Excuse me?"
One of the girls smiled and extended her hand to Lin Anan, "Hello, Comrade Lin, my name is Xue Ke, and this is my brother Xue Ran, can we meet?"
Lin Anan looked at the enthusiastic brother and sister in front of her, and was slightly stunned. Then she smiled politely and reached out to hold Xue Ke's hand. "Hello, Comrade Xue Ke, it's nice to meet you."
Xue Ke's eyes sparkled as he looked at Lin An'an with admiration. "Comrade Lin, you did so well in the oral test just now! We were all listening to you and were so impressed.
Your views are very original and your expression is very fluent. We would like to ask you some questions, is that ok?"
Xue Ran nodded slightly with a gentle smile on his face, "Yes, Comrade Lin, compared with you, we feel that we still have a lot of shortcomings. I hope you can give us some advice."
Lin Anan hesitated, "Thank you! But I have to go eat now, maybe there will be a chance later."
"Comrade Lin, let's go together. I'll treat you!" Xue Ke's eyes were full of anticipation.
Lin Anan waved her hands quickly, "No, no, if you don't mind, then we can go together."
"Of course we don't mind. We are so happy."
So the three of them went to a small collective restaurant and sat down.
During the conversation, Lin Anan also got to know the Xue brothers and sisters a little.
The child of the director of the Revolutionary Committee...
I have to say, Lin Anan was a little shocked.
Thinking of what Editor Liu said at the time about "people with connections", I suddenly understood.
It’s really a serious and hard relationship!
However, the Xue brothers and sisters are very good-tempered and are very keen on foreign languages.
"Sister An An, I think you will definitely pass the exam. Your spoken English is so good that you can't even tell you are Chinese.
As for us... we just want to try it out and see what level we are at. It doesn't matter whether we pass the exam or not, there is still a long way to go." Xue Ke said.
Lin Anan smiled and shook her head. "Don't say that. You are also very good, and you have such a high passion for learning foreign languages. As long as you persist, you will definitely achieve great success in the future."
"Thank you for your encouragement, Sister An An. Actually, I have learned a lot from taking the test this time, especially from listening to Sister An An's oral demonstration. Wow, I never thought that we Chinese can speak English so well..."
The three of them ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
After finishing her meal, Lin Anan looked at the time and said, "It's almost time. I have to prepare for the Russian language test this afternoon."
Xue Ke and Xue Ran were both stunned!
"Russian?"
"Um."
"Sister An An actually knows Russian?"
Lin Anan smiled and nodded.
Xue Ke has a very lively personality and his little mouth never stops talking.
On the way back, she was surprised again!
Lin Anan...actually knows six languages!
The few of them went back chatting and laughing, and received a lot of attention.
In the Russian language test in the afternoon, Lin Anan performed again well. She answered all the examiner's questions in fluent Russian, demonstrating her solid language skills.
To put it bluntly, her Russian ability is better than that of the examiner...
After the exam, Lin Anan walked out of the examination room, twisted her neck, and breathed a sigh of relief.
She saw Xue Ke and Xue Ran still waiting for her outside.
"Sister An An, how did you do in the exam?" Xue Ke asked quickly.
"Not bad, it should be fine."
At the gate of the Northwest Foreign Affairs Department, a tall and slender figure was standing quietly.
"My lover is here to pick me up. I'll leave now. See you next time."
The two siblings of the Xue family followed Lin Anan's gaze and saw Chu Mingzhou in military uniform.
"It turns out that Sister An An is a military wife."
"No wonder her political review was so excellent, even Lin Dong didn't dare to deduct her quota..."
The Xue siblings are indeed people with connections, but they are not people with connections who want to use connections to get a certificate. Instead, they are using family connections to test themselves.
They are naturally clear about the unspoken rules here.
Generally speaking, unfamiliar faces like Lin Anan would be eliminated, and there would be no chance for her to occupy a spot.
But after meeting Lin Anan today, the Xue siblings were convinced.
Presumably, the Northwest Foreign Affairs Department would issue this certificate to her after weighing the pros and cons. After all, comrades with such strong language talents are too rare, not to mention that she is also associated with the Northwest Military Region.
"Keke, Comrade Lin Anan is very capable and is a friend you deserve to make."
"I know, bro."
Lin Anan walked towards Chu Mingzhou.
The moment Chu Mingzhou saw her, his stern gaze disappeared, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. "How is it? Are you tired?"
Lin Anan trotted over to him and walked side by side with him, "I'm not tired. I played pretty well today."
Chu Mingzhou hummed lightly.
The two went home talking and laughing.
Since she was free anyway, Lin Anan told him in detail everything she had seen and heard today.
"So you don't need to ask me if it's difficult or not. For me, just like we are talking now, it's not difficult at all."
"Oh, by the way, husband, I also met two friends, the two siblings who just came out with me. They are nice people with good personalities, but... their backgrounds are quite impressive~"
"It doesn't really matter whether I pass the exam or not. I've tried my best anyway. I don't rely on this certificate to make a living. I can't let myself be wasted."
Chu Mingzhou is particularly good in this regard. He is willing to listen. He loves to listen to whatever Lin Anan says. He does not feel annoyed by her sharing at all. Instead, he is extremely happy.
