Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School's final exams
It has always been known as the "mini college entrance examination".
The examination room was set up according to the standards of the city-wide joint examination.
Each student has their own desk, with their name and exam number affixed to the corner.
The distance in all directions is large enough to kill any attempt to exchange glances.
The air was filled with the smell of paper and ink.
It was so quiet that the only sound was the ticking of the second hand on the wall clock.
Lin Que sat by the window.
He twirled his pen, glancing at the math exam paper in front of him, his eyes somewhat unfocused.
Back in the day, he was also a top student from a 985 university.
But later he became a writer.
Analytic geometry and function differentiation are things I've long forgotten, things I taught my math teacher back in the day.
In the months since my rebirth, although I've crammed for a while...
At best, it's just a matter of re-oiling the rusty parts; it's far from being able to run smoothly.
He glanced at the exam paper.
The multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions at the beginning were fairly easy.
Relying on remaining memories and logical deduction, it can still be done, albeit with stumbles and falls.
But when he turned to the back and saw the challenging analytical geometry problem at the end, Lin Que's eyelids twitched involuntarily.
The shorter the title, the bigger the issue.
The ellipses, hyperbolas, and parabolas are intertwined, like a tangled mess of threads.
In his eyes, this was no longer a graphic.
It is a tightly woven but utterly devoid of warmth, logically closed loop that rejects any emotional intervention.
Lin Que sighed and began to set up points and write equations.
He could sense it.
The students sitting around him were already writing, their fingers rustling loudly.
The sound of the pen tip scratching against the paper was like a stirring battle march.
As for himself, after calculating for a long time,
The solution yielded a bizarre coordinate system with three layers of square roots, which didn't seem like a standard answer at all.
Oh well, let it be.
Lin Que decisively gave up and began to check the previous questions from the beginning.
His goal this time is very clear:
Passing is the best policy; any more than that is a waste.
The examination room is like a battlefield, and time flies by.
Finally, I made it to the last subject: Chinese.
The moment the exam papers were handed out, Lin Que felt like he had come back to life.
The atmosphere in the entire examination room relaxed considerably.
For the students of Grade 11 (3),
Chinese language exams, especially essay writing, have become a kind of "exhibition of literary talent".
Many people subconsciously glanced in Lin Que's direction.
I'm curious to see what kind of groundbreaking article this rising star of the literary world will write this time.
Even Shen Qingqiu, one of the proctors next door,
When I see an essay topic, I secretly imagine what kind of thing that student will write.
Lin Que turned to the last page and saw the essay topic.
In short: a summary.
This is an extremely open-ended topic, yet it is also very easy to write something empty.
We can summarize the gains and losses of the past year.
It can be used to summarize learning experiences and lessons, or it can be used to reflect on different stages of life.
Lin Que's lips curled slightly when he saw the title.
He pondered for a moment.
Lin Que picked up his pen and wrote the title on the manuscript paper: "Summarizing the past is also opening up the future."
He didn't begin with any fancy words, but simply stated his facts in plain language.
"...A summary is not a mechanical review of past merits and demerits, but a deep self-reflection."
Our generation is fortunate to stand on the path paved by our predecessors, borrowing their torch to light our own.
Looking back, we should ask ourselves: are we content to merely imitate the light, or have we found our own direction within that light?
Are you content with simply memorizing maps, or have you already identified your zodiac sign during your journey?
"...Therefore, the conclusion is a period, and should also be a dash."
It marks a milestone in past explorations and points to the infinite possibilities of the future.
We stand on the shoulders of giants not to comfortably admire the scenery, but to see further and then build our own height.
This level of achievement, though perhaps clumsy or immature, stems from our most sincere response to the land beneath our feet.
This is a standard "high-scoring essay".
Lin Que wrote with great pain.
It's not because I can't write, but because I have to resist the urge to write too well.
He had to suppress those sharp, insightful quotes that jumped off his pen and replace them with steady, repetitive phrases.
After writing the last word,
Lin Que even had time to lie on the table, pretending to contemplate life, but actually taking a ten-minute nap.
"bell--"
As the bell rang to signal the end of the exam,
The entire teaching building was like a powder keg that had been detonated in an instant.
The students, who had been holding back for two days, erupted in thunderous cheers.
Books and exam papers were thrown into the air, fluttering down like snowflakes.
"We're liberated!"
"Finally, the exams are over! I'm going home to sleep for three days and three nights!"
Wu Di rushed to Lin Que's side immediately and excitedly put his arm around his shoulder:
"Brother Que! Let's go to the internet cafe all night tonight!"
Lin Que yawned, looking utterly dejected.
"I can't walk anymore, my soul has been drained by the science exam paper."
Just then, the campus loudspeaker suddenly came on.
The powerful voice of Dean Fei Yuncheng resounded throughout every corner of the campus via loudspeaker.
"Class, please be quiet! I have an announcement to make!"
The noisy campus instantly fell silent.
"The school has decided on the results of this final exam."
It will be announced after the Spring Festival holiday!
After a brief silence, a cheer that was even more intense than before erupted, like a tsunami.
"Long live!!"
