On the last day of school for the senior year, the No. 2 Middle School campus seemed unusually noisy.
Thanks to the fact that today is the day when the senior students are about to say goodbye to the campus where they have lived and studied for three years, the school leaders of No. 2 Middle School did not, as usual, come over and scold them for affecting the studies of other classes at the slightest disturbance, but tried to be restrained and tolerant as much as possible.
Even though it was the last day of school, when other classes had stopped attending classes and started to let loose, the students in Class 27 were not as noisy as the students in other senior classes.
The students in Class 27 were still restraining themselves. Even though most of them were no longer studying, they did not make such a loud noise as in other classes that the whole school could hear them. They just chatted with each other in low voices, dreaming about their future.
Following the familiar path and climbing the stairs that he had climbed countless times, Zhou Yu had just reached the fifth floor and arrived at the door of his loyal Class 27 classroom when he heard bursts of low discussions and occasional laughter.
Hearing the confidence and ease of his students as they faced the upcoming college entrance examination, Zhou Yu, who had been a little nervous, completely relaxed.
Even though Zhou Yu believed in the abilities of the students in Class 27, he also believed that after so much training from him, these students had become very confident and could handle various exams with ease.
But anyway, believing is one thing and seeing it with your own eyes is another.
Zhou Yu had witnessed a similar case when he was a student.
When Zhou Yu was in high school, he had a classmate who usually had good grades, usually around 560 or 570, but would become overly nervous when faced with major exams and would fail.
Whenever he takes an exam, this student becomes so nervous that his hands shake, and he looks as if he is not getting any feedback and his mind is blank.
At first his parents did not take this problem too seriously, but later they found that it happened every time and felt that something was wrong. After finding out the situation, they intervened with the teacher.
After the intervention, there was some improvement. My nervousness during subsequent exams also gradually improved.
After discovering that the situation was starting to improve, the parents stopped paying attention to it. As a result, when taking the college entrance examination, the student's old problem recurred.
Excessive tension led to failure in the college entrance examination. After the scores came out, I found that my score was only enough to get into a second-tier university.
Therefore, because he has seen too many similar cases, Zhou Yu would worry whenever he thought of them. His students usually look confident, but there is no guarantee that they will be so nervous that their hands will tremble and their minds will go blank when taking the most important exam in their lives.
However, when Zhou Yu walked into the classroom and saw his students looking relaxed, his slightly tense heart suddenly fell back into his stomach.
It was because of this situation that Zhou Yu forgot everything he had originally planned to say to them.
Because Zhou Yu felt that in the current situation, saying those words would be completely unnecessary.
...
...
"stand up!"
The moment he saw Zhou Yu appear at the main door of the classroom, Xu Jiahao, the class monitor, shouted louder than the rest of the class.
With the class monitor's reminder, the discussions in the classroom suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.
“Hello, teacher!”
Everyone stood up and shouted at Zhou Yu who had already walked onto the podium.
Zhou Yu put the textbook in his hand on the podium and nodded to the students below the podium with a smile.
With Zhou Yu's signal, the students returned to their seats, waiting for Zhou Yu to start their last class.
"The last class today is just a casual chat with you! I have already finished everything I need to tell you before this class!"
Zhou Yu smiled and spoke his first words in Class 27 today.
But when Zhou Yu saw that the students were all looking at the lesson plans and teaching materials he had placed on the podium in confusion, he smiled and picked them up, explaining, "I brought them with me out of habit. Halfway through the journey, I remembered that I had extra things to bring with me, so I brought them along as well."
"But don't worry about these details!" Zhou Yu put the lesson plan in his hand back again, changed the subject and asked, "How is it, are you nervous? The exam is coming up in a few days!"
When the students heard the head teacher ask this, they looked at each other and then burst out laughing.
"Teacher, it's just a small test! Take it easy!"
"Yes, teacher, it feels almost the same as the first and second mock tests. There is no difficulty at all!"
"Teacher, based on our current strength, the college entrance examination is so EASY for me!"
...
...
Listening to the many students talking at the bottom of the podium, Zhou Yu did not say anything. He just listened with a smile and nodded from time to time in response.
When they had almost finished talking and stopped talking, Zhou Yu spoke again, "Since you can think this way and have this mentality now, as a teacher, I feel very gratified."
"That's the mentality you need to have! But just like what the teacher once said, I would also like to ask you to despise the college entrance examination strategically and take it seriously tactically!"
When Zhou Yu spoke, all the students in the class suddenly became quiet and listened quietly to what their head teacher, Mr. Zhou, had to say.
"Like I just said, I came here today just to chat with you guys."
"What I want to tell you is that you are only a few days away from the final shot! June 7 and June 8 are the two most critical days in your life so far."
"You have gone through 6 years of elementary school and 6 years of middle school, a total of 12 years, all to prepare for these two days!"
"So, I hope you can maintain this mentality until the college entrance examination is over!"
When he said this, Zhou Yu paused, then raised his voice by one decibel and shouted to the people below the podium, "Can you do it?"
"able!"
The students below the podium did not hesitate at all, and shouted to the teacher on the podium with all their might.
