Chapter 1056: Competition of Wisdom
"Whether this answer is correct or not, we will look at it later."
"No. 2 Lin Muan wrote: Return the socks to the seller for identification. This answer is similar to the answer of contestant No. 1."
"No. 3 Liu Lingzi's answer is: Indistinguishable."
Seeing this answer, the host shrugged, because this kind of answer clearly showed that the host didn't know how to answer it.
At this time, some audience members laughed, while some judges in the judges' booth lowered their heads and whispered.
Liu Lingzi lowered her head. Her face looked very ugly, even upset. She didn't like this segment very much. It was obviously to select the most beautiful campus beauty, so why set up such a segment to compare IQ? This obviously allowed the contestants with good grades to win.
Then the host looked at Tang Su who was sitting in seat No. 4.
"Next, let's look at the answer from No. 4 Tang Su. Tang Su wrote: Take apart each pair of socks and give one to each person."
The correct answer had not yet been displayed on the screen, but after the host read out Tang Su's answer, there was warm applause from the audience.
The applause formed a sharp contrast with the laughter just now.
The host looked at the reactions on the scene, smiled and said, "It seems that the correct answer has been revealed. We congratulate Tang Su, and also congratulate the next two contestants, Guo Xiao and Chen Xiyan, who answered the question correctly."
The first question was over, and only three of the 10 contestants answered correctly.
The three people who answered correctly were Tang Su from Qinghua University, Guo Xiao from Xihua Jiaotong University, and Chen Xiyan from Jingzhou University of Finance and Economics.
These three contestants are all from domestic 985 universities.
The second question appeared on the big screen, and the host read: "Second question: There is a region that values sons more than daughters. Every family here wants to have a boy. If the child they give birth to is a girl, they will give birth to another one until they give birth to a boy. This results in more than 90% of the families in this region having boys, but only 65% of the families having girls. What will be the approximate male-female ratio in this region in the end?"
After the question was announced, Tang Su wrote down her answer directly on the answer board without thinking. This time she finished it in less than ten seconds.
After finishing writing, Tang Su sat quietly in his seat waiting for the time to end.
After a while, the host announced the end of the quiz.
Host: "The second question is over. All contestants please show your answer board."
The host read out the answers of each contestant again, and this time every contestant wrote down their answers, but the answers were different. Some wrote 1.2:1, some wrote 1.4:1, and some wrote 1.5:1. Tang Su's answer was 1:1, and Guo Xiao, Tajilina, Chen Xiyan, and Fu Hanxue also wrote 1:1. This time, 5 contestants had the same answer.
Then the answer to this question appeared on the screen, which was 1:1.
Host: "Congratulations to the five contestants who answered correctly. Who would like to explain why they chose this answer?"
The host looked at the contestants on the stage and asked.
Then, several contestants raised their hands. Tang Su turned around and saw that except for himself, the other four contestants who answered correctly all raised their hands.
Host: "Fu Hanxue, tell us about your answer."
Fu Hanxue replied: "I made this judgment based on experience, because in the past, many cities in our country favored boys over girls. But at that time, there were no B-ultrasounds or blood tests to check the gender of the baby, and the ratio of men to women was about 1:1. So I wrote 1:1."
