"In one month, November will soon be over and we will soon be entering December! And in one month after December, this year will also soon be over and we will welcome the new year!"

Inside the large conference room on the campus of Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, leaders including Wang Hongwen, Li Jianping, and others were holding a meeting with Zhou Yu, Geng Tianyuan, and a group of other class teachers to discuss matters concerning the senior class.

Wang Hongwen had never prepared a speech in advance. He just glanced at the notes in his notebook and said to the many teachers in the audience with a serious face, "According to the usual practice, the second monthly exam should be held in half a month."

The second monthly exam is different from the first monthly exam in terms of its simple difficulty. If the first monthly exam is in the simple mode, then the second monthly exam is in the difficult mode. Its difficulty is directly targeted at the college entrance examination. Most of the time, it is even more difficult than the college entrance examination.

According to past practices, Ruxu Middle School, Ruxu No. 1 Middle School and Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, these three... no, we also have to add a provincial model middle school located in a township - Ruyin Middle School. These four middle schools, according to past practices, will have their two monthly exams at the same time. Although in name they are all taking their own exams, but if you really count it, it can be considered a joint exam.

Because the papers used for the second monthly exams of these four middle schools are generally the papers for the joint exam of the eight schools in southern Anhui, which are the papers Zhou Yu used for the second monthly exam when he was at Wuzhou Middle School last year. However, Wuzhou Middle School is too weak and no one wants to take it for fun.

The reason why we use the joint entrance examination papers of the eight schools in southern Anhui is that the joint entrance examination of the eight schools in southern Anhui is a famous interim examination for high schools in Anhui Province. Every year, it serves as a benchmark for the review and preparation for the college entrance examination in Anhui Province.

The deeper reason is that the four middle schools in Ruxu County, namely Ruxu Middle School, Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, Ruyin Middle School and Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, are all members of the Southern Anhui Eight Schools Association, and they can directly use the resources of the Southern Anhui Eight Schools Association.

"It's different from the past. In the past, although our Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, Ruxu Middle School, Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, and Ruyin Middle School would tacitly arrange to take exams at the same time, in name, they still took their own exams," Wang Hongwen continued, "but this year, all high schools in Ruxu County will have a joint exam."

"At that time, everything about the exam will be carried out strictly in accordance with the college entrance examination standards! However, due to some force majeure factors, it is impossible to carry out everything in accordance with the college entrance examination standards, so there may be some minor adjustments at that time."

"For example, students from all high schools will still take their exams in their own schools. But in order to ensure the fairness of the exams, we will disrupt all the invigilators and avoid having them in our own schools."

"So all the teachers present here may invigilate at Ruxu Middle School, Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, or even Wuzhou Middle School, but they will not stay at Ruxu No. 2 Middle School to invigilate!"

Before Wang Hongwen finished speaking, the teachers in the audience began to discuss in low voices.

There is no way not to discuss it, it is really because Wang Hongwen's words are too troublesome. There is no other reason, Ruxu County is really too big.

Ruxu County has more than 20 towns under its jurisdiction, with an area of ​​about 2,000 square kilometers, but the area of ​​its county seat is only about 100 square kilometers, accounting for less than one twentieth of the total area of ​​Ruxu County.

How many high schools are there in Ruxu County?

There are Ruxu Middle School, Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, Ruxu No. 3 Middle School, plus a vocational high school, only five schools in total!

How many high schools are there in Ruxu County?

More than a dozen!

In other words, if the arrangement is as Wang Hongwen said, accidents may occur and most of the teachers present in the conference room may not be assigned to the high schools in Ruxu County and will have to go to other high schools in townships to supervise the exams.

You know, at this time, most teachers don’t have cars.

Nowadays, a car that is a bit cheaper, plus the purchase tax, insurance and other miscellaneous expenses, will cost at least six figures, 100,000 yuan or more to buy. Of course, the cheaper cars mentioned here do not include the Chery KOKO.

How could a young teacher like Zhou Yu, who had only worked for a few years, afford such an expense? How much money could they earn?

Of course, Zhou Yu is an exception. He has money, but he hasn't got a driver's license yet, so he has no plans to buy a car yet.

If you don't have a car, commuting will be a problem. If you are assigned to a school close to the county town, such as Ruyin Middle School, it will be okay. Teachers without a car can take the bus and the commuting time is only ten to twenty minutes.

But what if you are assigned to Qixing Middle School, which is nearly 60 kilometers away from the city? The commuting time is more than an hour. For an exam at 9 a.m., do you have to get up at 6 a.m. to rush to the bus station and wait for the rural-urban bus to rush to the exam?

It doesn't make sense~

So when Wang Hongwen mentioned this, the smart teachers in the audience immediately thought of this aspect, so the discussion gradually became louder.

...

...

Listening to the increasingly loud discussions below, Wang Hongwen couldn't help but frown. He knocked on the microphone and reminded, "Teachers, please be quiet for a moment. The meeting is still going on. If you have any objections, please write them down first."

"After I have finished explaining everything that needs to be explained, if you have any questions, please raise your hands and speak up. If you are not satisfied with the solution we give, we can discuss it together on the spot and see how to solve it."

After all, Wang Hongwen has been the principal for many years, and his words still carry weight. Everyone has faith in Wang Hongwen, so after Wang Hongwen finished speaking, the teachers under the rostrum all fell silent, waiting for Wang Hongwen to continue.

"In addition to this, there is also the question of the examination papers. As for the examination papers, this year, as in the past, the examination papers of the eight schools in southern Anhui will be used. After the examination, the names will be covered and taken back to the county, where the Education Commission will arrange for teachers to mark the papers..."

After he finished speaking, the teachers in the audience were suddenly shocked.

Well, is the Education Commission serious about this? It's not just talk like before, it's really going to strictly follow the college entrance examination standards for this monthly exam? What's going on?

Wang Hongwen on the podium was still talking about some regulations and measures for this monthly exam. The teachers below the podium seemed to be listening carefully, but their minds were already filled with random thoughts.
