Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Monthly Exam Begins
Lin Yimu spent four consecutive evening self-study days in the competition training class, and his relationship with the classmates gradually became harmonious. The classmates in the training class were just as Huang Minglei said. They were only very enthusiastic and gossipy on the first day when Lin Yimu came because of curiosity, but after that they got used to it and started to focus on studying.
Today is the time for the monthly exam that the teacher mentioned.
Yancheng No. 1 High School is a key high school in Yancheng City. It is also a public university with high teacher quality and educational resources in Yancheng City. In order to ensure students' academic performance and the school's excellent admission rate, the school conducts a monthly exam at the end of each month to summarize students' learning situation that month.
After the results come out, students in ordinary classes whose scores are good enough to surpass the last few students in the top class will be swapped with the top students in the top class after the results are announced. Students in the top class will basically be admitted to key universities in China. This is also the fundamental reason why Yancheng No. 1 High School guarantees a high admission rate and attracts outstanding students.
After the first class bell rang at 8:20 in the morning, Lin Yimu sat in his seat and watched the head teacher walk into the classroom with the test paper in his hand.
Su Yunlan stood behind the desk on the podium, put a stack of test papers in her hand on the desk and said: "Everyone, please put away the books on your seats and put them in your own cabinets outside the classroom. There should not be any books or papers on the desks or in the desks. The monthly exam will be held all day today, and each subject will last 120 minutes. Okay, let's get started." She clapped her hands and asked everyone to get started.
"yes."
The students responded obediently and began to tidy up their desks in a hurry. While Lin Yimu was tidying up his desk, he listened to Jian Yun muttering nervously.
"I didn't expect to have the exam today. I'm a little nervous now. I feel like I haven't reviewed well at all. I don't have any confidence in this exam." Jian Yun said to Lin Yimu and others around her with a sad face.
Her deskmate Liu Weiwei rolled her eyes when she heard this and said, "Who do you blame? I asked you to hurry up and review before, but you didn't care at all. Now that you have an exam, you're anxious."
"Oh, I thought there was still time, but who knew the first monthly exam would start so early!" Jian Yun pouted in grievance.
Liu Weiwei quickened her pace to clean up the desks and said, "Stop complaining and clean up quickly. Everyone is almost done. If we don't hurry up, the teacher will come in and talk to us soon."
"I know, I know." Jian Yun said as she quickened her movements. Then, as if she remembered something, she turned to look at Lin Yimu and said, "Lin Yimu, you have been studying in the training class lately, and I haven't seen you read books on subjects other than science. Aren't you nervous at all?"
Lin Yimu put the books on the desk into his schoolbag and said, "It's okay. I did exercises every day in the competition class. Although I'm nervous now, I seem to have gotten used to it. Keeping a little nervous can help my brain focus better."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yun and Li Jiayan beside him looked at Lin Yimu with admiration. Jian Yun even gave him a thumbs up and said, "You are awesome. It turns out that academic geniuses are different from ordinary people like us."
Several people were talking while waiting in line outside with their backpacks and books that couldn't be put down. By the time everyone put down their bags and sat down in their seats, half an hour had passed.
Su Yunlan looked at the students who had returned to the classroom and asked everyone to rearrange the desks at an arm's length. After everything was arranged, she said, "Next, we will hand out the test papers. The test will last 120 minutes. Everyone remember to fill in your class, age and test number carefully, and check your answer sheet carefully. During the test, you are not allowed to look around, whisper to each other, or cheat. If you are found to be suspected of cheating, your test paper will be confiscated and you will get zero points for this test." After that, she asked everyone to pass the test papers to the students one by one.
Lin Yimu looked at the Chinese test paper handed to him, read the questions carefully, and breathed a sigh of relief.
The content of this exam is basically knowledge from the textbooks. Although there is some extracurricular knowledge, they are all from some famous books and poems that the teacher asked us to read. What is put on this test paper are all some reading comprehension. It is not as difficult as the last entrance exam. But it is understandable. After all, it is to test the knowledge that students have learned in this month. As long as they have learned well, it will definitely not be difficult.
Lin Yimu looked relaxed as he quickly worked on the test paper in his hand, writing down the answers one by one without any hesitation. Filling in the blanks in poems and choosing synonyms and antonyms were not difficult at all for Lin Yimu, who had already read and understood the entire textbook.
Lin Yi Mu quickly finished the previous multiple-choice questions and reading comprehension, and had already reached the last composition. When he saw the title of the composition, a smile appeared on his face.
[Curiosity refers to being curious about and interested in things that you don’t understand. Some people are curious about the mysteries of the starry sky, so they go to observe and explore; some people are curious about the story of "Lilliput", so they read "Gulliver's Travels"; some people are curious about the changes around them, so they try to understand the reasons for these changes... Curiosity will bring you many new discoveries and make your life more colorful. Please write an article with "Curiosity" as the title. The word count should be between 600-1000 words. 】
Lin Yimu was originally curious about the system that suddenly appeared, and he was even more curious about what the system had and its reward and punishment mechanism. However, due to his current insufficient knowledge reserves and cognition, he could not accurately detect the secrets of the system. This was why Lin Yimu studied so hard.
He wanted to explore the technology of higher dimensions, and wanted to know where the system came from and how advanced their technology was.
However, at this stage, Lin Yimu is more curious about the increasingly in-depth knowledge he has learned, so this essay is not difficult for him at all. Although writing is a long process of accumulating understanding, it is still very simple for Lin Yimu to write an essay on curiosity.
After carefully examining the questions, Lin Yimu put the test paper aside and began to write his composition on the writing paper.
The head teacher was the invigilator of this monthly exam. After the test papers were distributed, he patrolled the classroom to check on the students taking the exam to prevent anyone from cheating. When he walked to Lin Yimu's desk, he took a quick glance and found that he had already started writing the composition. Su Yunlan was surprised for a moment and stopped beside Lin Yimu.
Su Yunlan carefully looked at the composition Lin Yimu was writing, as well as the test paper and answer sheet he placed aside, and found that most of the questions he answered were correct, which made Su Yunlan nod with satisfaction.
Based on the answers written by Lin Yimu, Su Yunlan estimated that Lin Yimu's answer could basically get a good score.
Su Yunlan put down Lin Yimu's answer sheet, turned around and continued to patrol the class, but Lin Yimu, who was concentrating on writing his composition, didn't notice the teacher's presence at all.
After the teacher walked around the class a few times and returned to the podium to sit down, Lin Yimu had already finished writing the composition. He checked the test paper again and again and raised his hand.
Su Yunlan was a little surprised when she saw that it was Lin Yimu who raised his hand. He had already finished writing his composition, so there shouldn't be any problems. But she still asked, "Student Lin Yimu, do you have any questions?"
"Teacher, I want to hand in my paper." Lin Yimu looked at the teacher calmly.
Su Yunlan thought about it and felt that since Lin Yimu had already finished the test paper, it would be okay to hand it in early. She just reminded him, "You can hand in the paper now. Go out after handing it in and don't disturb other students who are taking the exam."
After Lin Yimu heard this, he nodded, handed the test paper to the teacher, and walked out of the examination room briskly.
The students who were still struggling with the test questions, when they heard Lin Yimu say that it was time to hand in the paper, were all surprised at who was so fast. It had only been more than half an hour?
When they looked up and saw who had handed in the paper, everyone showed an expression of "as expected", but they also felt it was incredible in their hearts. Wasn't it said that Lin Yimu was amazing at math? How long has it been since then? Finished the Chinese test in less than an hour?
Looking at Lin Yimu's back as he handed in his paper and walked out of the classroom, everyone looked stunned and surprised.
"Oh my god! Lin Yimu's speed is too fast! How did he do the questions? It's only been less than an hour, right?"
"Is this speed still human?"
"The top student is indeed a top student. He finished two hours of questions in just 40 to 50 minutes. What's wrong with his brain?"
"Okay, everyone, be quiet! There is still an hour left, so hurry up and do the questions. Don't look around." Su Yunlan looked at the classroom where discussions were rising and falling, and clapped her hands with a serious expression, asking everyone to hurry up and do the questions.
The students who heard the voice immediately stopped talking, lowered their heads and hurried to do the questions, but they also felt a little impatient in their hearts.
After Lin Yimu walked out of the classroom, he saw that it was still early, so he planned to go to the competition training class to read for a while. Now during the exam time, only the competition class was empty.
Lin Yimu took out the advanced mathematics book he had been reading from his bookshelf and walked leisurely to the competition training class. As soon as he pushed the door open and walked in, he saw Huang Minglei sitting in the middle of the first row reading a book.
Huang Minglei raised his head from his book when he heard the sound of the door opening. When he found out that the person coming was Lin Yimu, he gave him a sunny smile and said, "I knew you wouldn't be slow. Come here to read too?" Then he looked at the advanced mathematics book in Lin Yimu's hand.
Lin Yi Mu walked towards Huang Minglei and said, "Aren't you faster? I don't know how long you have been here." Lin Yi Mu said and sat down next to Huang Minglei.
After sitting down, she turned around to take a look at the book he was reading and said with a smile, "You've started reading advanced mathematics too?"
"Yeah, I can't always lag behind you, I have to catch up with your progress, otherwise what if I lose to you in the competition?" Huang Minglei said pretending to be helpless.
Lin Yimu flipped open the advanced mathematics book in his hand, rolled his eyes and said, "Not that bad, I've only just seen the differential of functions, if you're fast, you can catch up with me quickly."
Huang Minglei looked at Lin Yimu speechlessly, then put down the book in his hand and said, "Do you think everyone has such an amazing memory like you? I'm just a little bit smart."
Hearing this, Lin Yi Mu smiled, but his eyes did not move away from the book. "Don't be so modest. If someone like you were a little smarter, what would happen to the students in the ordinary class? If those top students in the class who are inferior to you heard what you said, I think they would want to beat you up." As he spoke, Lin Yi Mu seemed to think of that scene and could not help but laugh.
Huang Minglei looked at Lin Yimu who suddenly laughed happily, picked up the book in his hand and wanted to pat him, but in the end he didn't do it and instead laughed along.
After the laughter stopped, they both started to read the books in their hands seriously. In between reading, they discussed some parts that they didn't understand. They even had an argument over the verification process of a problem, insisting that their own calculation process was correct. Until the bell rang to end the first exam, neither of them was able to convince the other.
The two of them packed up their advanced mathematics books on the table and walked towards the teaching building together. Even while walking on the way, they couldn't help but discuss the advanced mathematics problems they had just solved. Seeing this scene, the candidates who had finally finished the exam and breathed a sigh of relief all showed expressions of admiration and unbearableness.
The first class they passed by when they went upstairs was Class 1. Huang Minglei stopped his discussion with Lin Yimu and waved his hand, saying, "I'll go to the class first. How about we check the math answers after the test this afternoon? And how about we compare who is faster and more accurate?"
Lin Yimu shrugged indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter to me, but what are the rewards for this competition? Wouldn't it be boring without rewards?"
Huang Minglei looked at Lin Yimu with a headache after hearing this, and said in a subtle tone: "You are too unwilling to suffer a loss, it's just a casual competition and you want a reward. No one likes to take advantage more than you."
"There's nothing I can do about it. It was you who wanted to compete with me. Besides, competitions only work if there are rewards. How about this: the loser treats the winner to a meal? That shouldn't be difficult, right?" Lin Yimu said with a smirk on his face.
Huang Minglei hit Lin Yimu on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then you can wait to treat me to a meal!"
When Lin Yimu heard Huang Minglei agreed, the smirk on his face became more obvious as he said, "You have to do it yourself~"
Huang Minglei's originally calm expression darkened when he heard this. He looked at Lin Yimu with a vicious look in his eyes and wanted to say something but didn't. Finally, after holding it in for a long time, he said, "It's not impossible. As long as you can beat me, I can do it. As for whether you can eat it or not, it's up to you."
"Then I'll wait and see. I'm looking forward to the meal you cook." Lin Yimu said, waved his hand and walked towards his class.
"It's not certain who will win or lose yet! Just wait for me to treat you to a meal!" Huang Minglei shouted viciously at Lin Yimu's receding back, then turned around and went back to his class.
