Chapter 5 Inertia
September 2000.
Another summer vacation is over, and the unchanging welcome slogans are re-hanged in front of the teaching building.
If it weren't for knowing that last year's slogan had already been dilapidated due to the wind and sun, Zhao Shucheng might have thought that the school had taken out the previous slogan and hung it on.
After a summer vacation, I was a little uncomfortable when I returned to school. The students who had not been masked for a long time were laughing and talking about interesting things during the holiday.
They don’t know that less than a year is an important turning point in their lives.
After almost all the students arrived, as the class bell rang, a female teacher who looked about fifty and with her hair tied in her hair came in without saying a word. She first hung a sign for the countdown to the college entrance examination next to the upper right corner of the blackboard.
"I don't like to talk too much, so I won't say anything extra. In my senior year of high school, everything has to make way for the college entrance examination, especially boys and girls. You must never fall in love. Once I find out, pack up your things and go home immediately. Do you understand?" Teacher Zhai said.
The students looked at each other and responded sparsely.
"I understand."
Although the students understood it, they didn’t know what they would have to face in the next two semesters. Although they were both in class, they were completely different from the first and second graders. In addition to still learning the book knowledge of the new semester, many of them were asked to memorize some knowledge points, and various test papers followed one after another, making people feel breathless.
However, Zhao Shucheng felt that they should be glad that the school has not assigned classes completely according to the grades, and still teaches according to the previous classes. Otherwise, they will be re-sorted after each monthly exam, which will be a big test for many students. Especially for students whose grades are not the best but are not bad, Zhao Shucheng understands that way.
Especially when you are assigned to Class 1 at the beginning, you have to Class 2 at the monthly exam. If you can't adapt to this gap, you will get worse and worse in the future, and you may end up hating the exam directly. Especially when the whole class is full of top students from the school, everyone is studying hard, which makes you have to work hard with you, and instead tighten yourself and don't feel relieved at all.
But even so, the high-intensity study still makes many students uncomfortable. The grades are still not different in the class. Once you reach the grade, you may have several places for one point.
Not to mention anything else, just Fang Hui, her original grades were not bad in the class, and she could basically guarantee the top ten, but she did not perform well during the monthly exam and fell directly to more than 200 in the grade.
Such a score cannot be said to be too bad, but Fang Hui himself felt that he had regressed a lot, so he felt a little depressed. On the contrary, Lin Jiamo, whose usual scores were worse than Fang Hui, performed well in this exam, but he was not much worse than Fang Hui's ranking.
The two of them were not happy when they looked at Zhao Shucheng, who ranked first in the exam. After all, their grades were much worse than those of Zhao Shucheng, and there may be thousands of people in the middle of the college entrance examination, and they may not be able to enter the same university.
Compared with Fang Hui's depressed mood, Lin Jiamo had a kind of courageous attitude towards knowing shame and pulled Fang Hui and said, "Fang Hui, it doesn't matter if we were not in the exam this time, but as long as we study hard, we will definitely catch up. Look at how bad my grades were before, and aren't they much better now?"
Fang Hui nodded and said, "I know, when the test papers are sent in the afternoon, I will see where the mistake is."
"That's right, Fang Hui, you said Chen Xuncai was so good. Should we borrow some of his notes? Maybe there are some secrets in it that can make it easier for us to master some knowledge points?"
"Okay, but will he agree?"
"Of course, we are good friends, he will not refuse to save him." Lin Jiamo patted her chest and promised.
When Teacher Zhai was in class, the first thing he did was not about the test scores. Instead, he took out a piece of paper two meters long and wide, and asked Zhang Ran to paste it on the blackboard behind the classroom, so that every student in the class would write on it on it and take it as his goal for his future study.
The students wrote in the university they liked one after another, Zhao Ye wrote in the first style, Qiao Ran wrote in the Tsinghua University, and Lin Jiamo wrote in the Peking University without hesitation. Fang Hui hesitated after seeing it, and chose to be the same as Lin Jiamo. Zhao Shucheng did not know which school to go to, so he simply wrote in the exam which one to get.
Of course, the students also saw Zhao Shucheng, but they didn’t think that Zhao Shucheng had no goal. Instead, they felt that according to Zhao Shucheng’s grades, it was really possible to say that they could go to college by choosing any choice. What’s more, the news said that Zhao Shucheng had been considered by the school to submit to college, but it was nothing more than which one to choose in the Peking and Qing dynasties.
However, Teacher Zhai was not very satisfied with Zhao Shucheng and was preparing to talk to Zhao Shucheng after the class was over and asked him to rewrite his target university.
"Students have finished writing, so let's talk about the main business. This monthly exam, many students may have different feelings and feel that their grades should not be like this. I want to tell some students that if you study well in the first and second year of high school, you can relax in the third year of high school, you can get good grades in the college entrance examination, and get into a good university. Don't expect that you are a little smart and you can get a top-notch exam."
"I see many students writing that their goal is Peking and Qing dynasty. This is not something you can achieve by writing it now, but it is something that requires you to make it happen by step by step, not for those speculators."
"Some students may have discovered that the monthly exam paper is no longer just the content you learned in the classroom. It contains a lot of content from the first and second grades of high school, and even some content from your junior high school. Because the content of the college entrance examination is like this, covering all the knowledge points from the first to the third grade, and even the content from the junior high school."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Hearing Teacher Zhai say this, the students below began to whisper, talking about their own thoughts. Some thought it was unfair, while others felt it was too difficult.
"Okay, calm down. I know that some of you said you were not prepared, and some said you didn't lay a good foundation at the beginning, so your test scores would decline. This is actually normal. In the third year of high school, you are asked to review the basic knowledge points in the previous textbooks and consolidate the basics. You can recall all the basic knowledge and be familiar with the memory. In addition, you can find out any knowledge points you didn't know before and implement them. Then, check the missing points, so that you can check your familiarity with the knowledge points while constantly doing the questions, and finally learn actively."
"Don't think this is very simple. The first monthly exam is just to make you familiar with the college entrance examination questions. The teacher's explanation will be very fast next time. It is impossible to wait for each of you students to keep up with the pace. This requires you to seize the learning opportunities and review rhythm yourself, and listen carefully in the classroom. Of course, the teacher suggests that you strive to record all the knowledge you reviewed on the day and summarize and digest the day. Don't think that you still have time to review again in the future, as it will only delay more and you will not be able to keep up with the progress of the class in the end."
"Okay, that's all I can say. Next, we will hand out the test papers for next month to explain the knowledge points and the areas where mistakes are prone to make."
As the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Teacher Zhai finished explaining the test paper and said to Zhao Shucheng: "Chen Xun, come with me to the office."
When Zhao Shucheng followed Teacher Zhai to the office, she couldn't help but look at Zhao Shucheng and said, "Chen Xun, I know that you have always had good grades, especially since the first semester of senior high school, you have basically never gotten off the first place, but do you think you are very awesome?"
"Teacher, I don't have that idea."
"There is no better thing. There is no shortage of smart people in this world, nor are there people who have strong test-taking skills. There are people outside of people, and there is a sky beyond our world. You are one of the best in our school classes, but in the whole district, or even the city, can you guarantee that you can still be the first in the exam?"
Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said, "Teacher, I have never thought about it like this."
Although Zhao Shucheng traveled through time and had confidence in his memory and test-taking skills, he really didn't think he could really be unique in this world. Not to mention anything else, there are so many high school students in the country, and there are countless smart people, and there are many people who can get high scores. He doesn't think he will definitely become the most powerful one. Maybe some corner will pop up a person who can never forget it, or an examination machine, and you can get full marks in the college entrance examination directly.
Teacher Zhai saw Zhao Shucheng like this, nodded and said, "It's best if you can think like this. Actually, I have read the content you wrote in the target university. In fact, for your grades, you may really be the one you get into, and you can choose whatever you want. But for other students, this is not the case."
"The difference between your grades and other students is too big. Not to mention those middle-class students, even the second place in our class, they are several tens of points behind your grades. It is difficult to catch up with you. In fact, sometimes the teacher is also very troubled when facing top students like you. It is not that you are not good, but you are too good."
Teacher Zhai sighed and then continued: "If a group of people compete, if they are a competitor who can see the back, then the people behind will have the motivation to catch up. However, if they cannot see the back and are even surpassed for one or two or even several laps, then they will lose the motivation to continue chasing, and they are more concerned about whether to chase or even give up directly."
"As the class monitor, you should play a leading role in the class, become a role model for students in the class to learn and a benchmark for the school, so you should set a goal like other students and let them strive like you."
Zhao Shucheng said: "Teacher Zhai, I understand. You just want me to be a tool person and be chased by others."
"Yes, so to say that, you should motivate everyone to look at you and drive the learning atmosphere of the class. In fact, teachers see your grades, and choose your university at will. My purpose is to improve the class's admission rate. Do you think that the teacher is just for yourself?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Teacher, I think you are right to do this, but it is for the good of your classmates. You may get bonuses because of the high admission rate, but their lives have changed. After all, the admission rate is high, and more students in our class will be admitted to college, their lives will be better, so they earn more."
When Teacher Zhai heard Zhao Shucheng say this, he felt that Zhao Shucheng is much more mature than the students she has taught. If she changes to other students, she will not ask about the admission rate. After all, this will arouse the students' inner disgust and will not study hard.
When Zhao Shucheng returned to the classroom, Lin Jiamo and Fang Hui looked at Zhao Shucheng with some concern. They also heard that the school was preparing to submit Zhao Shucheng, which made them happy for Zhao Shucheng, and they were also worried whether they could continue to be together.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Jiamo heard Zhao Shucheng's question, hesitated and said, "Chen Xun, can you lend me your notes? I did not perform well in this monthly exam. I want to see your notes and consolidate my knowledge points."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Of course, I thought it was something."
After saying that, Zhao Shucheng thought about it again and said, "Let's do this, please look at my notes this month. I'll take the time to sort out the knowledge points for the first and second year of high school, and then give them to you. You should review them according to the above knowledge points and you should be able to keep up with the progress of your work. If you master them all, then the exam should not be too difficult."
Before Lin Jiamo and Fang Hui said anything, Zhao Ye, who was on the side, had heard it, and suddenly felt something like a martial arts secret book, and said, "Chen Xun, please lend me a look first!"
Zhao Shucheng looked at Zhao Ye and said, "Okay, you can see it all. Actually, Zhao Ye, you should see it the most. After all, I won’t say much about your grades. Even if you master half of the knowledge points, it shouldn’t be a big problem to pass the first stadium exam."
"It's you, Chen Xun, what a guy."
In fact, Zhao Shucheng's words are not a joke. After all, the biggest difference between him and high school students is that he has a lot of experience in the college entrance examination, knows how to summarize knowledge points, and knows how to make the review efficient, so notes are still very helpful for high school students.
