Chapter 1073 The Returnee's Notes 147
"Yes, thank you for your help along the way, senior." Xie Ning first thanked her verbally, then took out a bottle of mineral water from her bag and gave it to Xiao Xiao.
"I'm going to be busy for a long time today. Senior, can I have your contact information? I'll treat you to a meal another day."
"Haha, you little girl, you're like a little adult."
Xiao Xiao waved her hand, "You can leave your contact information, but there's no need to eat. If you want to eat, I'll treat you. There are plenty of good food options at the food court, and I'll take you there."
Xie Ning is a very capable young girl. Although she is young, Xiao Xiao still wants to be friends with her.
Moreover, it's clear from this short hour-long interaction that Xie Ning is a very mature person.
That's normal, though, because children in gifted youth programs are more mature than other children.
Xie Ning randomly chose the side closest to the door and put her things there. The beds in the dormitory were all in the same position, with bunk beds and desks underneath. There was a shared step between the two beds against the wall, which also served as a storage space.
Seeing Xie Ning busy making the bed all by herself, the other two parents couldn't help but ask, "Little girl, where are your parents? How can they let you do all this by yourself?"
"Yeah, yeah, do you know how to hang a mosquito net? Do you know how to make a bed?" The baby-faced girl sat cross-legged on the chair, curiously looking at Xie Ning.
"Of course I will."
"Wow, you're amazing! By the way, my name is Gao Xiaohan, what's yours?"
Xie Ning was taking out the rag she had prepared, intending to fill a basin with water to wipe the bed, since it had been uninhabited for a long time and was covered in dust. Seeing Gao Xiaohan approaching, she smiled and said, "Xie Ning."
"Xie Ning?! Holy crap, you're Xie Ning?!"
Gao Xiaohan excitedly grabbed Xie Ning's arm, "How are you so amazing! You got full marks on the last big question in the college entrance exam math section, which was so difficult!"
That was an advanced question, and she didn't get it right, losing eight points. She did solve the first part, but she didn't have the time or energy to think about the more difficult second part.
The little girl who was fetching water on the balcony also ran in, "Yes, yes, that question was really hard." But she lost points on more than just that one question.
She only scored 127 points in math, which was a poor performance, and she was heartbroken for a long time afterward.
"My name is Lin Qiuyan. You can call me Qiuyan or Xiaoyan, it's fine."
The two couldn't help but pull Xie Ning aside to discuss the question, even though they already knew the answer and understood how to solve it.
However, if the problem were of the same type, they might not be able to calculate it within the time limit.
Xie Ning was quite generous, taking out a draft paper from his bag and leading the two in a practice session. The difficulty of the college entrance examination math problems lies in the fact that they need to be answered within a limited time.
She didn't need any special skills, because those kinds of questions were very basic for her. However, she did think about some answering techniques while practicing.
It allows people to answer more questions correctly in a shorter time, whether it's multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, or problem-solving questions, providing a simpler approach to answering them.
Of course, this requires mental arithmetic and quick reaction time. If you can't do that, you'll have to use other test-taking techniques.
Xie Ning hadn't originally planned to use this method, but since there was a related exercise book in the workbook she bought, she modified it according to her own ideas.
Seeing that the three children were having a great time chatting, Mr. and Mrs. Lin did not want to disturb them. Instead, they took a mop and cleaned the floor, as well as the washbasin and toilet on the balcony.
When Lin's father returned with five lunches, the three of them snapped out of their reverie, because Xie Ning had not only explained the college entrance examination math, but also the questions from their re-examination.
"Xiao Ning, you have such a good memory." They also remembered many questions, but they couldn't remember them all like Xie Ning.
"I only vaguely remember it." She was able to remember it only because she had simplified the questions.
"Come on, let's have lunch. It's already midday, and you're not familiar with the school. Eat something first, and we can go sightseeing together later."
"Thank you, Uncle Lin," Xie Ning and Gao Xiaohan said.
After lunch, Xie Ning made her bed with the help of Lin's mother. Lin's mother felt sorry for Xie Ning and said, "My family is from this city. Xiao Ning, you and Xiao Han can come to our house to play with Yan Yan often. You're all classmates."
