Chapter 414
The boy's face turned pale and red. He scratched his head and smiled awkwardly:
"No, no, I just feel like we're all in the third year of high school, and it's a bit mean of me not to help with this little favor."
Su Miao looked at him coldly and said calmly, "Cheating in the pre-exam is a small matter? If you get caught, you will be punished and your college entrance examination qualification will be revoked.
I don't even know you, and you're asking me to cooperate with you in doing something so risky, isn't that ridiculous?"
Su Miao's voice was not loud, but every word was clear.
The boy curled his lips, showing an indifferent expression on his face, and said disapprovingly:
"Don't make it sound so serious. It's just a preliminary exam. How can it have such a big impact? I just want to relax for a while."
Su Miao frowned. This was a lack of thinking.
"There are only so many college entrance examination places. If you get in, others will have to fail. Why can you deprive others of the fruits of more than ten years of hard study by cheating?
Since you don't think it matters, why not just not take the test? It would save you a lot of time and effort."
She was very disgusted with people who had no respect for exams and other people's efforts.
"Why are you talking so rudely? You can just pass the note to me and read it first! Then pass it to me after you've read it!"
I'm telling you, that's the answer from the second-place finisher in our class. I paid a lot of money for it! If it gets to you later, remember to throw it over."
The boy was a little angry and raised his voice, with the impatience on his face becoming more and more obvious.
Su Miao looked at him as if he were a fool, speechless and shocked. Was he just going to spread the news of cheating by paying money everywhere?
How can such a person take the college entrance examination? Don't treat him directly. Even if he is cured, he will still drool while walking.
Su Miao didn't waste any more time and walked past him towards the examination room without changing his expression.
"Hey! Hey! Do you agree or not?" The boy kept asking from behind.
"Leave me alone! Or I'll report you!"
Su Miao said this coldly without even turning his head.
…
Probably because Su Miao's position was right in the middle, she refused to help pass the note. The second place student was afraid of the same situation as in the morning, so he stopped throwing notes to the back in subsequent exams.
Su Miao was also able to complete the exam safely.
The pre-examination papers need to be submitted to the Education Bureau and graded by several groups of senior teachers.
This arrangement is intended to prevent schools from cheating to increase the number of college entrance examination candidates, but in fact it cannot completely eliminate the problem.
Because more than half of these old teachers are still working in various high schools, and the small number of them who have retired and are re-employed also have their original units.
Every school, especially the students of these teachers, are taught some very distinctive answering skills or handwriting starting from the first year of high school.
In this way, the teacher who grades the papers can guess at a glance that some students in the school will be a little more relaxed when grading papers, especially those in the liberal arts.
It takes a certain amount of time to mark the papers and determine the college entrance examination quotas. Even if the teachers work day and night to review the papers, it will still take a week.
During this week, the atmosphere in the senior year was low. Everyone was reviewing silently, but there was also a hint of restless anxiety.
It is difficult to get a place in the college entrance examination. According to the passing rate in previous years, some township high schools even have a "shaved head" situation.
Their school is a key school in the district and the situation is the best, but there is still a one-third elimination rate.
But Su Miao's class is not a key class, so the elimination rate should be half.
Everyone had mixed feelings. They wanted to know the passing score and their own scores as soon as possible, but also wanted to focus on the final sprint as soon as possible.
I am also afraid to know the scores, because if I fail, I will have to pack up and go home. These days will be the last student days for many of my classmates.
Hu Xiaodie looked at Su Miao, who was leisurely eating snacks, with envy in her eyes. She sighed and said:
"I wish I had your consistent grades, so I wouldn't have to worry about anything."
Su Miao handed her a handful of chestnuts and said with a soothing smile, "Your grades are in the upper middle range, so you should be able to do it."
Hu Xiaodie said with a frown, "What good is that? I'm so worried. I think I failed the math test.
These past few days, my parents have been burning incense for our ancestors at home. The incense is burning non-stop 24 hours a day, apparently asking for blessings from the ancestors until the scores are announced."
Su Miao smiled and said, "It's not enough to just pray until the scores are announced. We have to pray until the college entrance examination results are released."
Hu Xiaodie replied: "My dad said that when we take the college entrance examination, we won't just be praying at home, we'll have to go to our ancestral graves and burn dozens of kilograms of paper money.
Oh right! My dad asked me to take a day off before the college entrance exam to go to Wutong Temple to worship. Do you want to come with me? And call Jiajia too, so we can all go together."
Lin Wang turned around and asked curiously, "Does Wutong Temple care about this? Every time my dad goes there to pray, he prays for wealth."
Hu Xiaodie replied, "Of course! Of course I don't. I've always felt that as long as an immortal possesses magical powers, they can manage everything. Otherwise, why is there a phrase called 'great magical powers'?"
"Then let's go together. Will you ride a bike or take the bus?" Lin Wang said with great interest.
"It's quite far. It'll take about an hour to ride the bike! But it can be considered as a way to exercise and relax! Wait, I'll call Jiajia over."
So Su Miao, Hu Xiaodie, Meng Jiajia, Lin Wang and Guo Dong agreed to take a day off before the college entrance examination to go and worship together.
Soon it was the day before the results were announced, and as usual, each class held a "graduation ceremony" in advance.
The students brought food from home to share, took turns talking about their school days, imagined the future together, and some students even generously went to the podium to perform.
Everyone had smiles on their faces, but there was a hint of bitterness and a heavy heart.
Because the results of the preliminary exam will be announced tomorrow, students who failed may never see me again.
The next day, before the second class was over, Su Miao saw from the window that the teacher from the Academic Affairs Office was posting lists. Several large pieces of paper covered the entire bulletin board.
Su Miao squinted his eyes and looked hard, but it was too far away and he couldn't see the words clearly.
If I had known earlier, I would have brought a small telescope so that she could check the score first. There would definitely be a lot of people crowding to see it after class.
Sure enough, the students sitting by the window had already noticed that the scores had been announced, and the class started to get agitated.
Just as the bell for the end of get out of class rang, the students stood up and ran downstairs, everyone wanted to be the first to see their grades.
Hu Xiaodie pulled Su Miao up and ran, shouting, "Hurry, hurry! We won't be able to squeeze in soon, Jiajia! Go! Go!"
There were so many students from each class running out, and they looked as panicked as they did on the day of the last earthquake.
The corridor was instantly filled with noisy footsteps and shouts.
Even if the head teacher shouted at the stairs to slow down, it couldn't suppress everyone's anxiety.
