Students like Pei Tiantian are special cases, and she is indeed young, so she must get enough sleep to ensure her healthy growth.
So at Tao Jing's request, Pei Tiantian's daily morning reading class was cancelled, and her evening self-study classes were limited to 8:30 at the latest, in order to ensure that she got at least eight hours of sleep a day.
However, all this is based on a prerequisite, that is, Pei Tiantian’s grades cannot drop.
This made many people in the class envy Pei Tiantian, but the person they envied the most was Shen Xing.
Shen Xing doesn't have to go to and from school every day like them.
He was often away from school because he had to train for the Olympic Physics Competition.
After participating in the finals, he won fifth place in the country and successfully entered the national training team, and was therefore admitted to the Imperial Capital University.
After the dust settled on this matter, the school hung banners, beat drums and gongs, and held commendation meetings non-stop.
In addition to Shen Xing, several other students who took other subjects were also admitted.
But none of them attracts as much attention as Shen Xing.
Because Shen Xing is the first person in the history of No. 1 Middle School to win a gold medal in the Olympic Physics Competition.
Shen Xinghao was very famous for a while, and everyone in the school knew his name.
After Shen Xing was sure that he would not have to take the college entrance examination, even if he returned to school, he did not have to study from morning till night like other students.
So how can we not be envious?
Their eyes turned red with envy.
Of course, this includes Pei Tiantian.
Especially since she was in the same class with Shen Xing, because Shen Xing did not have to take the college entrance examination, the leisurely appearance of Shen Xing in class all day long was quite shocking to everyone.
This is why so many people want to win prizes in competitions to get admitted to university, because they don’t have to suffer.
Many people in the school were also interested and wanted to sign up for the competition. However, when they saw the topic of the competition.
The only words that kept circling in my mind were “Who am I and where am I?”
Although the characters were all Chinese, they just couldn't understand what they meant when put together.
Because the test paper is too difficult, many people have given up the ambition to participate in the competition, and they are better off just studying hard every day.
However, when Pei Tiantian saw the questions from the finals of the previous Olympic Physics Competition, she did not find it so difficult.
She was also a physics competition student in her previous high school life, so these questions were not too difficult for her.
Seeing that Pei Tiantian seemed very interested in the physics competition, Shen Xing told him that she envied him for having fun during his remaining high school years.
Shen Xing smiled and said, "Since you envy me so much, why don't you also participate in the physics competition?"
After Shen Xing said this, he actually remembered it himself.
Pei Tiantian has always got full marks in physics. She has had deductions in other subjects, but she has always performed very well in every exam in physics and has never had any deductions.
Even Pei Tiantian's thinking is very quick when facing physics problems, and she often uses competitive thinking to solve problems.
If Shen Xing hadn't known that Pei Tiantian had never participated in a physics competition and had no corresponding training experience, he would have suspected that Pei Tiantian had secretly asked someone to give her extra lessons.
The key is, Pei Tiantian didn’t.
This made Shen Xing feel that Pei Tiantian had some talent in physics.
Shen Xing changed his tone and said, "I was serious about what I said just now. How about this? You can try it first. There will be a preliminary competition in September. If the result is good, I think you can continue to participate. It won't delay you too much time."
In Shen Xing's heart, Pei Tiantian's level is about the same as Gu Rong's. He thinks that even if Pei Tiantian devotes her energy to participating in the physics competition, her performance in school will not drop.
Shen Xing used to think that he was quite smart, but compared with Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong, Shen Xing felt that they were more favored by God.
Pei Tiantian pondered for a moment and nodded: "I understand."
What Shen Xing said made her a little excited. Although she hadn't participated in a physics competition for many years, she might as well give it a try. If she was not admitted in the end, it would not matter. She could just come back and take the college entrance examination.
After thinking about it for a few days, Pei Tiantian told Gu Rong about this matter.
Gu Rong actually knew from Pei Tiantian's inner voice that Pei Tiantian had been thinking about whether to participate in the Olympic Physics Competition these days.
Gu Rong: "If you want to participate, then participate. What's wrong with that?"
Pei Tiantian: "But I will be in my senior year next semester. If I participate in the physics competition now, will it be too late? And I don't know if the school will agree."
Gu Rong: "Why not? The competition is your own business. Other people's opinions are not important. What matters is your own opinion. If you want to participate, just go for it boldly. Even if your grades in school are affected, I will help you make up for it."
Pei Tiantian's grape eyes were instantly filled with smiles: "Thank you, Brother Gu Rong."
He knew that the villain would stand on his side. After making up his mind, Pei Tiantian told Tao Jing and other people in the Pei family about this.
Pei Tiantian hadn't said much before everyone agreed unanimously.
The Pei family has complete trust in Pei Tiantian.
They felt that Pei Tiantian would not do anything without confidence, and they also respected Pei Tiantian's wishes.
Tao Jing has a certain understanding of Pei Tiantian's academic performance and knows that Pei Tiantian's physics scores are the best among all subjects. If she has such intention, she can also participate in the physics competition.
Then Tao Jing reported the matter to the school leaders, asking them to assign Pei Tiantian a coach who specializes in physics competition training.
In fact, the school leaders were not optimistic about Pei Tiantian's idea of suddenly wanting to participate in the physics competition on the eve of her senior year of high school.
Shen Xing has always been a seed player in physics competitions, and his earliest participation in physics competitions can be traced back to junior high school. In addition, Shen Xing has always been trained by a professional physics competition coach.
And Pei Tiantian, a novice with no competition experience and who has never received this kind of professional competition training, how could she possibly prepare well in a short period of time to participate in such a difficult competition?
However, as the class teacher, Tao Jing was very supportive, and Pei Tiantian herself was very determined, so it was not easy for them to stop the students from participating in the competition. After all, everyone has the right to sign up.
Everyone in the school unanimously believed that Pei Tiantian was just acting on a whim. Seeing that Shen Xing didn't have to study much, she wanted to follow his example.
Not only the leaders have this idea, but many students in the class also think so.
Pei Tiantian’s physics grades are very good, but the physics they usually study is not of the same difficulty as the physics questions in the competition. The competition questions contain a lot of knowledge that is beyond the syllabus.
Many classmates who have a good relationship with Pei Tiantian came to persuade Pei Tiantian not to be too impulsive. Senior year is a critical period and every day is precious. If she wants to participate in the physics competition, it is likely that most of the first semester of senior year will be delayed. Then her subsequent review task will be very heavy, which is not cost-effective for her.
Pei Tiantian just smiled and said nothing.
No matter how much she says now, it will be useless. Only results can truly convince others.
In the end, the physics competition coach assigned by the school to Pei Tiantian was the same coach who had previously coached Shen Xing. The coach's surname was Zhang, a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. He looked very stern and was serious.
When Pei Tiantian saw him for the first time, she felt a little scared.
I always feel that he is not an easy teacher to get along with.
Shen Xing gave all his previous physics competition materials to Pei Tiantian, and Pei Tiantian asked what kind of coach Shen Xingzhang was.
As soon as Shen Xing saw Pei Tiantian's expression, she knew that she must have been frightened by Coach Zhang's natural majesty.
Shen Xing comforted him, "Don't worry, Coach Zhang is a very nice and gentle person. Don't be fooled by his fierce appearance. He is actually not fierce at all. He is very serious and responsible. He treats everyone in our school equally."
After hearing what Shen Xing said, he inquired about the reputation of Coach Zhang. Basically, all the students who had been taught by Coach Zhang praised him.
Pei Tiantian suddenly realized that judging people by their appearance as she did before was indeed not a good idea.
In order to participate in the training for the physics competition, Bei Tiantian had to temporarily put aside his studies at school and train with Coach Zhang.
After all, it is a physics competition, much more difficult than the usual school exams, and contains a lot of content that goes beyond the syllabus.
The first lesson Coach Zhang taught Pei Tiantian was about mentality.
She repeatedly told Pei Tiantian that the most important thing to do in preparing for the competition was to keep a steady mind.
The competition is very intense and exciting, and many students who participate in the competition will easily collapse mentally because of too much pressure. This not only leads to poor performance in the competition, but also affects their performance in other subjects.
Pei Tiantian nodded obediently to show that she understood.
Coach Zhang learned that Pei Tiantian had almost no experience before and there were only a few months left until the preliminaries in September.
This amount of time is extremely tight in the eyes of contestants, and it is almost impossible to train within this period and eventually reach a level that can win a prize.
Of course, this is just Coach Zhang’s preliminary estimate. He doesn’t know much about Pei Tiantian. In order to better understand Pei Tiantian’s foundation and the specific level of her physical level.
Coach Zhang gave Pei Tiantian a test paper of previous years' Olympic Physics Competition preliminary exams for her to do.
There was a time limit for this set of papers in the preliminaries. Coach Zhang took Pei Tiantian's actual situation into consideration, so he told Pei Tiantian to take the papers home and do them herself, trying her best to do as much as she could, without a time limit.
After Pei Tiantian took the test paper, she worked on it during her spare time after each class. Before the end of evening self-study, Pei Tiantian gave the test paper to Coach Zhang.
Coach Zhang was busy grading other people's papers, so he just asked Pei Tiantian to put the paper down and said he would come back to discuss the specific questions on the paper with Pei Tiantian tomorrow.
Pei Tiantian left.
The next day, Pei Tiantian went to see Coach Zhang at the usual time.
Unexpectedly, Coach Zhang's usually serious face suddenly showed a smile.
Pei Tingting actually saw some kindness and gentleness in his smile.
Somehow, this made Pei Tiantian even more uncomfortable.
She still prefers Coach Zhang's usual gloomy face, she's used to it.
"You did the questions on this test paper by yourself, right?"
Pei Tiantian: “Yeah.”
Coach Zhang said, "There is a lot of knowledge beyond the syllabus here. Have you learned this before?"
Pei Tiantian: "I like physics very much so I have taught myself some high school and college courses before."
Coach Zhang understood: "I see."
He showed the corrected paper to Pei Tiantian: "I took your paper back and corrected it yesterday. You answered every question correctly and you got full marks. Although you didn't have a time limit, it's still very good. It also shows that you have a good foundation. Pei Tiantian, you are very talented in physics competitions, but why didn't you think about participating in the competition when you were in the first year of high school?"
Pei Tiantian said: "I was still young at that time, and I didn't think about it."
Coach Zhang then remembered that Pei Tiantian was not yet twelve years old.
He is so young, one of the top students in his grade, and so good at physics.
Coach Zhang also had to sigh that the children nowadays are much better than they were back then.
"It's not too late for you to join in your senior year."
Coach Zhang used to think that time was tight because he thought Pei Tiantian was a student with no foundation, but now he has changed his mind.
Pei Tiantian has taught herself college physics. At the very least, she already has the basic knowledge and abilities. What she lacks is practical experience.
Pei Tiantian trained for several months under the guidance of Coach Zhang, and also trained with the first-year high school competition students for a week during the summer vacation.
In September, Pei Tiantian went to participate in the preliminary competition.
The full score of the test is 200 points and the test time is three hours.
Pei Tiantian took the test paper and read it from beginning to end.
The content of the test paper covers not only high school physics, but also some university content. These university contents are not too deep and are within Pei Tiantian's control.
So Pei Tiantian completed the preliminary exam easily. Although she couldn't guarantee that she answered all the questions correctly, she didn't encounter any particularly brain-teasing questions, so her score should be okay.
When Coach Zhang asked her how she was doing, Pei Tiantian also said: "It should be OK."
Pei Tiantian thinks she is okay, and actually she is really very good.
After the preliminary results came out, everyone knew that Pei Tiantian got the highest score among the contestants, full marks.
