After the parents of both families came, Chu Yao completely took over the family business.
The family knew that Chu Yao had an important competition, so whenever Chu Yao was at home, they would speak in a low voice. Even the children spoke quietly after returning home, for fear of disturbing Chu Yao.
Chu Yao: Actually, there’s no need to be so exaggerated.
During this period of time, apart from working, Yao Jinnian has devoted all his energy to improving Chu Yao's oral and expression skills.
Chu Yao was already good at English, and recently under Uncle Nian's devilish training, Chu Yao felt that she had a sure win.
Uncle Nian is really strict. This is more tiring than studying late into the night in high school. So Chu Yao is now hoping for the competition to come soon so that she can have a real fight. Uncle Nian's devilish training is really too much for her to bear.
Just as Chu Yao was anxiously waiting, the national competition finally began.
On the morning of the competition, everyone in the family was cheering Chu Yao on.
"Ayao, play well in the competition and don't think too much. It would be better if you get a ranking, but if not, the important thing for us is to participate." Lin Ling comforted Chu Yao.
Chu Yao:......
My mother has no idea of my abilities.
┓( ′?` )┏
Yao Jinnian didn't say much at this moment. He felt that with Chu Yao's current strength, it would be no problem for her to get into the top 20, so he just nodded at Chu Yao. Chu Yao received Uncle Nian's signal and nodded vigorously to show that she understood.
Yang Hang went on a business trip a few days ago. Before leaving, he encouraged Chu Yao a lot. Let’s not talk about the process and the result. Chu Yao wanted to cover her face.
Yang Zhao, Yang Zhang and Yang Xuan also believed in their mother's ability. In their eyes, no one was more powerful than their mother. They stepped forward to hug their mother and wished her a victory.
The venue for the national competition is still at the University of Foreign Languages.
In the last competition, only five people from Kyoto City won, which is enough to show the cruelty of the competition. Those five people were Ji Linfan, Lu Ranran, Gao Nan, Chu Yao, and Tan Haoyu.
This competition brought together top students from universities across the country. The five of them had met briefly before. After gathering together to cheer each other up, they sat obediently in the waiting area and waited.
While Chu Yao and the others were waiting, students from all over the country came in intermittently. It was obvious that everyone was very eager to show their best side. What was more worth mentioning was that everyone was more happy and excited than ever before.
Yes, this is the most difficult generation, but also the most enlightening generation.
Those who knew each other gathered in groups of three or four, chatting in low voices.
Chu Yao listened carefully and found out that the comrade who had just spoken was the top student in a university in a province with a large population, and was also the only comrade from their school who entered the national competition.
After looking around, Lu Ranran said to Chu Yao, "Chu Yao, I didn't expect the competition in other schools to be more intense than ours. I'm lucky I got into Beijing University."
"Ranran, you forgot that you also stood out from Kyoto University and many other schools in Kyoto. So, our Ranran is also super, super awesome."
Lu Ranran felt a little embarrassed by Chu Yao's praise, but she didn't shy away. After blushing for a while, she pulled Chu Yao aside to discuss the best students from other schools.
"Chu Yao, I heard there are some very good talents coming this time. I wonder if we will be able to face them. I hope not. I also hope to win the competition and go abroad for a year of exchange and study."
"Ranran, you have to believe in yourself and believe in your hard work during this period. Even if we may not win in the end, at least we have participated and gained experience." Chu Yao did not dare to guarantee that they would definitely win the competition at this time, so she could only comfort them in this way.
After that, everyone fell silent and the waiting room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Since this is the first national English competition after the college entrance examination, and it is also for sending promising talents to study abroad, this competition is almost a trial-and-error process, and it is also the one that the country attaches the most importance to.
But fortunately, for this class of students, the difficulty of the competition is within their acceptable range.
First is the written test, then a speech on a predetermined topic, then going on stage to randomly draw a topic and give an impromptu speech, and finally the highest score of all the scores added up to rank the candidates.
Then we will determine the candidates for exchange study abroad in the following year.
The host of this competition is a professor of English Department of Foreign Languages University. She is a very charming woman. She has experienced the precipitation of time and looks more charming, intellectual and attractive.
The female students waiting in the waiting room were envious.
The judges are presidents, vice presidents and other such people from universities across the country, as well as the highest leaders of the Kyoto City Education Bureau and bigwigs sent by the central and national governments.
Of course, Chu Yao and the others didn’t know this big guy. They just felt that the big guy’s temperament was different from the temperament exuded by their teacher. Their minds were all on the competition, and no one thought too much about it.
The game has begun.
There were a total of seventy-five people participating in this competition, and only twenty of them entered the finals, or were students going abroad for exchange, so they all gave their all from the beginning of the competition.
First there was a written test. The students wrote furiously in the classroom, eager to apply what they had learned to the fullest extent.
So after they finished the written test, many people already felt exhausted.
After the written test, I started preparing for the speech without stopping.
Half an hour later, the first speech on the confirmed topic ended.
