Chapter 4848 [Update 2]
Some people were still looking at the list, trying to find their own names. Some people only took a quick look because of the rain and dim light, and then ran back. As
soon as he came back, he announced loudly: "I saw Jiang Xi from our class on the top ten names in the grade!"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Jiang Xi.
Jiang Xi, who heard his name, also looked up in surprise and tilted his head towards the student who was talking. His eyes were full of smiles, as if his eyes could speak, letting the student who was talking know that Jiang Xi was also waiting for his list results.
He gave Jiang Xi a thumbs up: "Tenth in the grade!"
Everyone else in the class exclaimed "Wow!"
Although Jiang Xi had done very well in the previous monthly exams, and was said to be in the top ten of the grade, it was not like the midterm and final exams, where there was a specific grade ranking list, and it was all hearsay.
But this time, there was a real and clear list.
The student in the parallel class directly skipped two key classes and entered the top ten of the grade. Even if it was only the tenth place, it was really amazing.
They couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Jiang Xi, after all, the academic master was next to them.
Although they were originally top students in the middle schools in the towns below, the gap can be clearly seen after the top students gathered in one school.
Some students learn easily, while some students find it difficult to keep up.
For example, He Xiaofang.
He Xiaofang was also very happy to hear that Jiang Xi was in the top ten of the grade, especially since Jiang Xi was her good friend, which made her feel touched and proud.
In the two test papers that have been handed out so far, she did not do badly in Chinese and English, at least she was satisfied with the results.
But she was worried about the three subjects of mathematics, physics and chemistry. She
had already made up her mind that she would definitely choose to study liberal arts in her second year of high school, and never science.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Jiang Xi, wanting to ask her whether she wanted to study liberal arts or science. When she looked up, the big devil math teacher came.
When she saw the math teacher, her heart trembled, and she lowered her head unconsciously, wishing she could become invisible, with her face full of "can't see me, can't see me, can't see me".
This time the math teacher really didn't see her, but as usual, he spread the test papers on the podium and began to read out the names and scores.
"Xu Dawei..." He paused, expressionless: "71."
After reading, he picked up the test paper, looked angrily at the boy who stood up and trembling to take the test paper, and threw the light test paper at him fiercely: "How did you get such a score? Huh? Even if you took the test with your eyes closed, you wouldn't get such a low score! I even doubt how you got into this middle school! Such a simple question, and you got more than 70 points. This is not a 100-point system, this is a 150-point test paper!"
The math teacher felt that his liver was aching with anger.
The tall and thin boy named Xu Dawei didn't dare to raise his head when the math teacher scolded him. He backed away with his neck shrunk, fearing that the math teacher would get angry and hit him.
Fortunately, although the math teacher's eyes were as big as copper bells, he just hit him with his test paper, and it was an unrolled test paper, so it didn't hurt.
He took the test paper and ran back to his seat, still feeling scared.
Everyone was afraid that the next person to be called would be themselves.
He Xiaofang lowered her head, her bangs hung in front of her eyes, and she could clearly see the hair on her bangs, which was shaking.
"Liu Min, 72."
"Shen Ziqiang, 73."
The math teacher was probably really angry. Every time he called out a name, he would say to the person who came to pick up the test paper: "You even got the easy-point questions wrong, huh? These are all easy-point questions!"
"I really don't understand what you are learning in class. I teach the same questions in the same way, but some people can get 130 or 140 points, while you only get a few points. This can't be said to be my problem, right?"
The math teacher read several names in a row, but he didn't read He Xiaofang's name. He Xiaofang couldn't help but quietly raised her head and looked at the math teacher on the podium. She heard the math teacher just read her name: "He Xiaofang." He glanced at He Xiaofang and was still deeply impressed by this dark-skinned girl, but it was not a good impression. However, this time, his voice was finally softened: " 91.”
When He Xiaofang came up with her head down to receive the test paper, the math teacher, who was impressed by her, finally praised her: “Not bad, you passed.”
The math teacher pointed at He Xiaofang with the hand holding the test paper and said to the classmates in the class: “Look at her, she ranked last in the class in the last monthly exam, but she improved by 20 points this time! Look at you again.” He was talking about Shen Ziqiang and Liu Min and others: “Same test paper, same teaching, they can improve by several points, what about you? Not only are you standing still, you are even regressing!”
Those students couldn’t even raise their heads, and they were under great psychological pressure.
When they read to the middle, the math teacher didn’t preach much.
Generally speaking, students who can be remembered by teachers either have very good academic performance or very poor academic performance. For example, He Xiaofang, who ranked last in the math test last month, was remembered by the math teacher. On the contrary, teachers generally cannot remember students who are in the middle.
The teacher read the names of the last few, and did not read Jiang Xi's name until he read Xu Xiuli's name. Xu Xiuli breathed a sigh of relief and took her own test paper.
Until the end, when there was only one chapter left, the math teacher read Jiang Xi's name: "Jiang Xi, 142."
The classmates in the class raised their heads and looked at Jiang Xi.
Although the classmates knew that Jiang Gui was in the top ten of her grade and her grades must be good, they did not expect her math grades to be so good. This score is excellent not only in their parallel class, but also in the key class.
Even the math teacher was a little surprised that a parallel class student could do so well in math.
When he read to the end, when he read Jiang Xi's name, the math teacher, who was originally in a bad mood because of some students who did poorly in the exam, was relieved. He said in class: "Jiang Xi's score is a good score!" He also said to Jiang Xi: "You can't be proud. This is the first midterm exam after the school starts. Doing well doesn't mean anything. Being able to maintain it until the second and third year of high school and the college entrance examination is a real skill!" He has seen many students who had good
grades in the first and second year of high school, but suddenly failed in the college entrance examination in the third year of high school, or had average grades in the first year of high school, but suddenly performed well in the second and third year of high school.
Like Jiang Xi, wasn't his grade in junior high school just average, but suddenly performed well in high school?
It's just that girls usually start to work harder earlier, while boys play more in the first few years, and then they start to learn to work harder. Jiang Xi, on the other hand, started to work harder in high school, and his momentum was so strong that the teachers were surprised.
After the evening self-study, the math teacher didn't leave immediately, but called Jiang Xi out and said, "There is a math competition in the school, you should participate when the time comes."
Competitions are usually played by students in key classes, and students in parallel classes rarely participate in competitions, and usually only in the second or third year of high school. The first year of high school is just to find good students who are good at math, physics and chemistry, and to train and teach them first.
Unless you are very talented in math, physics and chemistry, you will directly participate in competitions in the first year of high school.
No. 1 High School is only famous in Wucheng. It is not so famous in the whole city or the whole province. Therefore, the focus of No. 1 High School is not on competition, but on putting all the energy of students into the college entrance examination. Getting a few more 985 and 211 exams every year is more practical than anything else for students and parents.
However, the Education Bureau has competition requirements for key high schools in each school. Whether or not they can win provincial awards is not to be mentioned. No. 1 High School still has to compete for the ranking in the city.
Especially since there is Wu High School right next door to them.
People in Wucheng generally believe that Wu High School is the best high school in Wucheng, not No. 1 High School.
Even the admission score line of Wu High School is slightly higher than that of No. 1 High School. The top students in the whole of Wucheng are more inclined to apply for Wu High School rather than No. 1 High School.
Those who apply to No. 1 Middle School are usually top students who were originally ranked in the top 50 in their grade in the township middle schools, but they are not so confident about their high school entrance examination results, so they choose No. 1 Middle School as their first choice.
Generally speaking, the first choice of the top students is Wuzhong.
In order to compete for students, the principal of No. 1 Middle School increased the scholarship of No. 1 Middle School, and there are also cash rewards for the dozen or twenty students with the best high school entrance examination results, in order to compete for better students.
Therefore, although No. 1 Middle School and Wuzhong are two schools facing each other, they are also mortal enemies. The competition has never stopped in these years.
No matter what the competition is, the two schools will compete.
Competition is natural.
Jiang Xi, who was notified, refused and said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Chen, I still feel a little bit struggling in mathematics, and may not be suitable for the competition."
Even the mathematics teacher who often speaks in Versailles language was shocked by Jiang Xi's words that he just scored 142, but said that he felt "learning mathematics is a little bit difficult."
For a moment, he was speechless.
He said, "Just go when you are asked to go, no matter how you do in the exam, as long as you do better than Wu Zhong."
Yes, the requirements of the teachers of No. 1 Middle School for the competition are so plain and simple.
It doesn't matter whether you can win the provincial award or not. The important thing is not to be outdone by the students of Wu Zhong.
By then, several students from Wu Zhong will enter the provincial competition, and none of them from No. 1 Middle School will enter. Then in Wucheng in the future, will No. 1 Middle School still be able to hold their heads up?
When Jiang Xi heard the math teacher say that they were competing with Wu Zhong, Jiang Xi, who had been a student of No. 1 Middle School in both lives, could not say the words of refusal.
It was really about the honor of No. 1 Middle School, a competition! Must be compared!
Jiang Xi said that math was difficult to learn, and it was not just a Versailles statement. Although she performed very well in the college entrance examination in her previous life, exceeding her previous performance, it was also because she spent a lot of time on math and English, which brought up the grades of these two courses.
But this does not mean that she is talented in math.
Compared with those who are really talented, her comprehension is really mediocre. It can only be said that if she spends time on this course, she can learn it, but it will not be as easy as liberal arts.
She really thinks that she can understand liberal arts questions at a glance, but that math really requires time and effort to understand. With
such comprehension, she can handle the college entrance examination, but what can she use to compete with others in a competition?
Unfortunately, not only the math teacher came to her, but also the physics teacher and the chemistry teacher came to her to ask her to join the competition class.
Jiang Xi: ...
Save me, save me, save me!
Teachers, you really have a misunderstanding of me. I am not, I don’t, I am really not good at math, physics and chemistry!
But no matter what Jiang Xi said, her science scores in this midterm exam were all there. With such good scores, of course she should join the competition class!
In the words of the teachers, "You are not going to compete right away. Go and study first. There will be an exam and selection in the school. Only those who are selected can represent the school to compete."
But she didn't want to go!
Thinking of herself as a science student, she was actually dragged to participate in a science competition, and it was physics and chemistry! Jiang Xi was completely depressed.
She spent so much time reviewing math, physics and chemistry just to prepare for the exam!
She was going to study liberal arts in her second year of high school!
She was really not good at math, physics and chemistry!
"Xing Xi, what did the math teacher say to you?" Why do you look like an eggplant hit by frost? "You did so well in the exam, the teacher shouldn't have criticized you, right?"
"No." Due to his professional habits in his previous life, Jiang Xing quickly adjusted his mindset. He smiled and shook his head, "The teacher asked me to participate in the math, physics and chemistry competition."
He Xiaofang's eyes lit up: "Wow! Xing Xing, you're so awesome!"
Xu Xiuli also thought this was a good thing and didn't understand why she was unhappy.
Jiang Xi shook his head and looked at the two of them: "Do you believe me when I say I'm not good at math, physics and chemistry?"
He Xiaofang shook her head decisively: "No."
Xu Xiuli knocked on the test paper that Jiang Xi had pressed under the textbook: "Do you want to take a look at the score on your test paper before you talk to us like that?"
Xu Xiuli simply didn't want to talk to Jiang Xi anymore, and she took He Xiaofang's arm: "Let's go."
He Xiaofang also rarely shared the same hatred with Xu Xiuli: "Yes, ignore this guy!"
"Saying that you're not good at math, physics and chemistry in front of me is so irritating!"
Xu Xiuli suddenly seemed to think of something, and said faintly: "Maybe, the reference objects she is not good at are those people in Class 1?"
He Xiaofang, who was caught off guard, was hurt:...
I'm not even worthy of being a reference object. 〒▽〒
Jiang Qi really didn’t want to take part in any math, physics and chemistry competitions, but he was still forced by the math, physics and chemistry teachers and was dragged into the competition class.
The so-called competition class means that there are three evening self-study classes. Students do not attend the classes together with their classmates. Instead, they are taught in a separate classroom by teachers who are specialized in teaching the competition class. The other class times are the same as before.
So after dinner in the evening, Jiang Xi and Xu Xiuli returned to the classroom, and she went to the administration building opposite alone, holding the three math, physics and chemistry books that she did not like.
The competition class is next to the computer classroom in the administration building.
There are no teachers in the administration building at night, and all the lights are turned off. Only the lights of the three competition classes are on, and there are 20 to 30 students sitting inside, all of whom are from Class 1 and Class 2.
When Jiang Xi came in with the books, the room was full of people, and everyone's eyes were on Jiang Xi.
