Before the students have recovered from the afterglow of the winter vacation, they have already rushed into the sprint stage of the college entrance examination.
The slogans on the big banners were changed every day, the songs played by the radio station were all passionate and inspirational songs, the students were busy running around, and even the big and fat principal seemed to have lost weight.
At this extremely tense moment, two things happened that the students talked about with relish after dinner.
The protagonist of the first one is Zuo You.
Zuo You, recognized as the last in the grade, is used by classmates to comfort themselves whenever they don't want to study.
Even someone like Zuo You, whose grades have never exceeded 40 points, is persisting. What reason do I have not to persist?
Unexpectedly, in the first monthly exam the following year, Zuo You jumped to first place in the grade, 20 points ahead of the second place.
On the night the results were released, all the teachers in the grade had their glasses broken. The fat principal was so scared that he almost had a heart attack and had to take two quick-acting heart pills.
This matter quickly spread among the classmates, and ten out of ten classmates did not believe that this was Zuo You’s real score!
It's not surprising that the students acted this way. Zuo You's image as a poor student was too deeply ingrained in their minds, and people would rather believe that Zuo You had stolen the answers by some unknown means.
Real results? What a joke! One classmate even boasted that if Zuo You had done this, he would put his underwear over his head and run around the school naked three times!
The first mock exam came soon, and on the night the results came out, Brother Underpants’ hands were shaking a little.
At the top of the list is Zuo You's name, which ranks among the top 500 in the province and is sure to be admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University.
Brother Underpants’ jaw dropped to the ground, big enough to swallow an egg.
Moreover, the classmates discovered that Zuo You’s result was definitely her true level.
Because when reviewing the test paper, Zuo You's explanation of the test paper was clear and unique, and it was three points simpler than the formal reference answers.
Moreover, when you ask her questions after class, Zuo You only needs to take a look and she will be able to explain the ideas and solutions together. In the process of explanation, she will also draw inferences from one example and connect the previous knowledge at the same time.
Listening to Zuo You explain a problem is very beneficial, so during the break, Zuo You's desk is almost always surrounded by people.
At first, the top ten students in the class were too embarrassed to ask Zuo You, the poor student whom they once looked down upon. Later, as more people asked, they swallowed their pride and lined up next to Zuo You's desk with their books of wrong answers as soon as the get out of class was over.
There were all sorts of theories circulating within the department. Some said Zuo You was struck by lightning, transforming him into a prodigy overnight. Some speculated that this Zuo You wasn't the same Zuo You, and that the current Zuo You was actually a perfect cloned robot, while the real Zuo You might have been murdered. Some also said that Zuo You was possessed by a demon, and that the price of increasing his intelligence was the loss of his lifespan.
There are all kinds of inferences, which makes people admire the imagination of high school students.
But no matter what, Zuo You's status as a top student is undeniable. This person they once looked down upon, thinking he was only worthy of a junior college, has now completely changed everyone's impression with his outstanding academic performance.
Under Zuo You's influence, the students of No. 1 Middle School suddenly became more motivated to study. During the second mock exam, the school ranked directly among the top ten in the province. The principal took two more heart-saving pills overnight.
The second thing that happened also involved Zuo You.
As the college entrance examination was approaching, a new movie became a huge hit. The theaters were almost sold out since its release, and its popularity was unprecedented.
No. 1 Middle School was afraid that the senior high school students would be too nervous as the college entrance examination was approaching, so they asked each class to choose an evening study time for the students to relax and watch this movie together.
It's a different kind of motivation.
The movie tells the story of a woman's growth in troubled times. The plot is compact and the emotions are well rendered. The heroine is played by film queen Lin Caiwei, whose acting skills are enough to carry the entire drama.
However, this is not the most amazing part. The most amazing part of the movie is a shot: the heroine's sister dies alone in the yellow sand. The scene is desolate and moves the viewers.
The scene was shot straight through, and the audience was thrilled. There was a close-up shot of the heroine's sister. The camera zoomed in, revealing blood on the girl's face and a look of yellow sand and deep despair in her eyes. In troubled times, human life is so cheap.
The look of despair before death was so real and so sad that just one look made many viewers feel as if they were there and burst into tears.
People say this shot will become an eternal classic in the film industry.
The little actress who played the younger sister was also nicknamed the national sister by the entire network.
This national sister is Zuo You!
Suddenly, the name Zuo You became a hot topic of discussion in the school.
Zuo You never thought of herself as a stunning beauty. Her appearance could only be described as average. However, on the big screen, in the close-up shots that kept zooming in, she was surprisingly breathtakingly beautiful.
It was a scene that was extremely story-telling.
The entire senior class was organized to watch this movie, and Zuo You almost became a celebrity in the school.
However, it is worth mentioning that when the movie was shown in Class 3-5 of Senior High School, when Zuo You appeared on the screen, Jiang Chen, the second-generation rich boy in the class, got very angry.
Jiang Chen suddenly stood up, kicked the chair over, and rushed out the door. He returned a long time later, covered in the choking smell of cigarettes.
Jiang Chen actually went out to smoke!
The students in Class 5 were all horrified, but no one dared to meddle in the affairs of this young master. They all kept quiet and watched the movie.
After the heat of these two major events gradually faded, the third year of high school was shrouded in a depressing yet happy atmosphere.
The college entrance examination is coming soon.
Time flies, and the results of our ten years of hard study will soon be revealed.
There were fewer and fewer people gossiping during breaks, and the attention paid to Zuo You also decreased a lot. Everyone buried their heads in their books and began their final sprint.
The chaotic senior year of high school is about to end.
