Clean and clear.
She walked onto the stage and bowed to the teachers below.
I gave a routine self-introduction and then read an article aloud.
All the students here read some famous essays or poems, but Liu Jing read a novel, Dream of the Red Chamber. Dream of the Red Chamber is difficult to translate, and of course it is even more difficult to read.
She read it out loud without even taking the speech manuscript.
The teachers below were all a little shocked. They even forgot to give grades. All their attention was focused on the stage. That quiet girl didn't come here to compete, she came here to give a speech.
A teacher couldn't help but shook his head.
"You really can't underestimate these children."
"This must be because he lived abroad for several years before returning."
Another teacher said in a confused tone, "Could it be that this is a mixed-race child?"
But Liu Jing has a typical oriental look, with black hair, black eyes, big eyes and a pointed chin. She doesn't look like a mixed-race face at all.
But he is just a junior high school student. How can he speak English so well, with that authentic London accent? Even if he started learning English since he was a child, he probably wouldn't be able to speak it like this, right?
When Liu Jing finished her last word, she bowed to the teachers below and then walked off the stage.
Teacher Qi gave Liu Jing a thumbs up. This child is not only talented, but even she, as a teacher, is afraid that she can't teach him. It's no wonder. He can get such high scores in the exam. With such a good foundation, isn't it easy for him to deal with the pediatric exam?
Liu Liang showed a dimple when she smiled. Normally, few people could see her dimples because her sense of humor was very high and she didn't like to laugh.
Suddenly, Liu Liang turned around and saw the teacher from No. 7 Middle School across from her. The smile on her face still didn't fade, but the light in her eyes was focused. What does it feel like to have garbage hit your face? It must be very happy, right?
"We're leaving."
Teacher Qi rubbed his hands and said, "Let's go eat first. It's my treat."
"Of course it's your treat." The English teacher was not polite to her at all.
"You won the highest prize in the school this semester. Even if Liu Jing and Liu Lele didn't participate in the competition this time, you still had to treat us."
They were talking here, and even the head teacher was smiling. It was a rare opportunity to participate in the provincial competition, which was such an honor. In their county, only No. 7 Middle School and their Jiang Ding had such an honor.
"Okay, I'll treat you!"
Teacher Qi was also happy. She patted her chest and decided to treat everyone to the meal.
She waved her hand and took a few people to a big restaurant. Liu Lele was probably the happiest person today. She had eaten delicious food all day and her stomach was bloated.
That is, after they came back, the matter of the English competition seemed to have fallen into oblivion. At first, the English teacher was thinking about it every day, but there was no news for several days, and her heart gradually grew cold.
I thought that my grades were not good enough, so I didn’t get a ranking.
Just when she had forgotten about the competition, the principal came to her one day with a smile and said that their school had won a prize in the English competition.
Still first and seventh place.
It's no surprise that Liu Liang came in first, and Liu Lele also made it into the top ten and was able to participate in the provincial competition. Moreover, their entire county, including No. 7 Middle School, failed to make the cut this time. However, their Jiang Ding had a dark horse and a foal. If they could win awards at the provincial level, then the school's educational funding would be approved.
Whenever the principal of No. 7 Middle School saw him, his eyes were not eyes and his nose was not a nose. When there were meetings in the city on weekdays, others sat while he stood, and others ate while he was hungry.
The city leaders always talk to the principal of No. 7 Middle School. What good is there in that? No. 7 Middle School always goes first, and these schools are always at the bottom. They get to eat meat, while they don't even get a sip of soup.
But this time, they actually ranked ahead of No. 7 Middle School. Waiting for the next meeting, he wanted to see how the principal of No. 7 Middle School could show off in front of him?
The principal instructed the English teacher and Teacher Qi to pay close attention to the two students. They were good seedlings that would bring honor to their school. They must not get sick in the near future. He also gave the two children a subsidy of ten yuan every day so that they could eat good food, get healthy, and prepare for the provincial exams.
The principal used to feel bad about the car rental fees, but now that he has passed the provincial exam, he is no longer worried about the fees. If the education fund comes in, he will have no problem paying for the car.
When Liu Lele held the ten yuan in her hand, she was so moved that she almost cried. All she had done since she was a child was to pay money to the school. Her parents had even prepared a lot of money to bribe the principal of the high school, but now she could actually get money from the school.
Although it was only ten dollars, enough for her three days' food money, these ten dollars were not ordinary ten dollars. She absolutely could not spend such a commemorative ten dollars and had to save it well.
Liu Liang spent the ten yuan very happily. She sold nougat in the small shop at the school gate. The two children in the tube building liked to eat it. Last time, Liu Lele gave her some, but she didn't eat them. She gave them all to the two little kids. As a result, the two little kids have been pestering her recently and asking for candy.
Coincidentally, she bought a bunch for each person.
A few days later, Liu Liang and Liu Lele had finished the English competition. Those who could participate in the provincial competition were all very capable. People like Liu Lele who took shortcuts would have a hard time.
It was only at this moment that Liu Lele realized what it meant that there are always people better than you. Originally, she was already very inflated, but now it felt like a needle was pricking her body.
With a puff, she deflated.
No matter how inflated her heart was, her ordinary head really couldn't support it.
Why are you still so proud? It would have been fine if you had just kicked him out of school, but you almost got kicked out of the provincial capital.
After she came back, she changed her lazy attitude towards learning and became proactive and eager to learn.
In the past, Liu Liang had to whip her before she could move, but now she can control herself without a whip.
That worldly kid is no longer the 600,000-year-old poor student he used to be.
A few days later, the school hung up several banners. Liu Jing won the first place in the provincial English competition with excellent results. She not only brought back a very impressive glass trophy, but also a big certificate. She also received a sum of education funds approved by the city along with the trophy.
