Chapter 5, Quick Answering.
Another classmate who is equally quick at solving problems is Wang Guohua.
This was specially prepared by Teacher Lu, modeled after the college entrance examination paper from 1982, and considerable effort was expended. The first part consists of two fill-in-the-blank questions on trigonometric functions worth a total of 2 points, followed by one fill-in-the-blank question and one problem-solving question, together worth 6 points. Next, there is a major question worth 8 points, bringing the total to 16 points, which accounts for 13% of the total score.
What is the matter with the half sheet filled with dense numbers and symbols
Yang Rui often spends his free time working on science exam papers, with mathematics being the top priority among them. This is because mathematics and English are the cash cows of the tutoring school
I am already a third-generation official in such a powerful township, what do I have to fear
The entire set of papers consists of five trigonometric function problems
Yang Rui is tall and is a newcomer in the retraining class, sitting towards the back, and his exam paper quickly became indistinguishable from those of others
Yang Rui is a person who enjoys working according to a plan, whether in conducting experiments or in his role as a tutor. Although he may occasionally modify his plans, it is always by replacing one plan with another; he rarely engages in a trial-and-error approach.
It seems that there are two methods to solve this problem
The students took their places, demonstrating a commendable sense of self-discipline
Yang Rui was completely unaware, his pen moving incessantly, producing a "shasha" sound. Without even using a draft, he solved the problems step by step directly on the exam paper, with the formulas laid out in meticulous detail.
This question has been done
The mathematics of the college entrance examination emphasizes concepts over techniques, and almost all types of problems can be solved using universal methods. Wang Guohua memorized the classic types of trigonometric function problems, and the combination of the two was executed with remarkable ease.
In 1982, passing in mathematics was considered an absolute high score
After some thought, Yang Rui simply covered the draft paper and lay down on the table, closing his eyes to rest.
In such a remote and impoverished mountain valley, it took the county two days to learn that a thousand-person armed conflict had concluded, rendering the performance of a single student utterly insignificant
Teacher Lu's home is located in Xizhaizi Township, which is under the jurisdiction of Secretary Yang. Every year, they have to deal with water purchases, fertilizer buying, borrowing agricultural machinery, paying agricultural taxes, and other matters, which inevitably involves interactions with the township government. This makes it very convenient for Yang Rui to serve as the class teacher, and he receives special care from Secretary Yang.
Now I will be penalized by Teacher Lu for the appearance of my paper, all because of this Yang Rui. Liu Shan no longer glanced at him and focused her attention on the questions.
That's good, being able to answer means a high accuracy rate. Yang Rui understands the advantages and disadvantages of memorizing questions; he is most afraid of encountering trick questions and off-topic questions. This set of exam papers was created by Teacher Lu based on last year's college entrance examination questions, making it relatively straightforward. If he can answer them, there shouldn't be any major issues.
Girls are inherently more mature than boys. Liu Shan has skipped two grades and repeated two years, and at 17 years old, she is in the prime of her youth, also beginning to take an interest in boys
Teacher Lu cleared his throat twice on the stage: "Do not speak, each row pass the papers forward from the back, and no one is allowed to write!"
Liu Shan cannot publicly look at his exam paper, so she glanced at him from a distance and mouthed: Check the scores tomorrow
"All that glitters is not gold." Liu Shan instinctively wrote the first few words on the exam paper, and suddenly realizing, hurriedly crossed them out with her fountain pen
Although Yang Rui does not perform well academically and is somewhat dull, his outstanding appearance cannot be overlooked, and girls inevitably pay him more attention
There is no need for him to teach English; mathematics is inherently unparalleled.
Yang Rui refilled the fountain pen with ink, laid out the draft paper, and prepared to embark on a significant writing endeavor
She was lost in thought, and seeing that Yang Rui seemed to be truly asleep, she stealthily stole a few glances at him, thinking to herself: This young man is really quite fortunate in his looks, and he is even younger than Takakura Ken
Wang Guohua used to be someone who would get a headache at the sight of mathematics, but now he wishes there were more problems to solve. Of course, he specifically means more problems related to trigonometric functions
He has thought it through. The Yang family is indeed a prominent local clan, and he is the son of the township party secretary. Although his father does not hold power in this town, he is still a local tyrant in the neighboring area. As the son of this local tyrant, he has countless fellow townsmen at Xibao Middle School. While it may be an exaggeration to say that he could rally five hundred strong men with a single call, when it comes to needing people, he could easily summon a dozen or so unruly boys with just a shout.
Liu Shan happened to raise her head and saw this scene. Unconsciously, she sighed and was suddenly startled: Why am I worried about him? In the end, it won't be me who is embarrassed... Moreover, it was he who said he would answer the questions well, and it was also he who slept during the exam. If he does not keep his promises, he cannot blame me
Wang Guohua then gently patted Yang Rui twice, putting him under "supervision".
Class is over? How did you do?" Yang Rui wiped his mouth, appearing in a lazy manner as if he had just taken a short break
In the recent college entrance examination, the national average score for mathematics was less than 30, while the average score for mathematics among admitted students was only in the 40s
Wang Guohua felt an inexplicable excitement
He does not care about the score of the diagnostic test; what he cares about is how many points he can earn on the trigonometric function questions. Therefore, as soon as he receives the paper, he immediately heads for the trigonometric function questions.
Class monitor Liu Shan automatically stood up and went to the front to help organize the papers together
However, in Liu Shan's view, Yang Rui's performance was truly lacking.
In fact, even 30 years later, the average score of science students in the college entrance examination in mathematics is only around 80 points, which still does not reach the passing line of 150 points. As for the average score of liberal arts students in mathematics, it often falls between 60 and 70 points
It is simply a matter of slicing; nowadays, how many hospitals have the energy and financial resources for this? They are still struggling to study Qigong masters.
The two consecutive classes passed in the blink of an eye. When the bell rang, Teacher Lu said with a pleasant expression: "Alright, all students please check if your names are written, then turn the papers face down on the desk, and remind your classmates next to you to supervise each other."
After doing this for a few years, although Yang Rui cannot score 151 points on the math exam, his speed is remarkably fast. He can recognize most of the questions at a glance, and when he occasionally encounters tricky questions, he can fully solve them in just the time it takes to stretch his wrists.
I have seen this question
When disturbances occur on the streets, local police officers must also lend a hand
Brother, do you still remember to care about me? I have answered all the questions on trigonometric functions; whether they are correct is hard to say. As for the other questions, I just wrote something casually. It's time to submit the paper. Wang Guohua's tone is actually quite confident, but it is purely a form of modesty.
This is also to reduce suspicion, after all, the score of this paper will certainly exceed everyone's expectations, and the existence of the intermediate process serves as a strong indication
He wants to prove that Yang Rui's method is useful; if that is the case, his mathematics has a chance of passing
After all, in the examination room, Wang Guohua glanced at Yang Rui's paper for a moment, then quickly averted his gaze
I neither bully the weak nor dominate the market, and my grades have improved; who could possibly apprehend me and interrogate me endlessly?
In less than 30 minutes, Yang Rui not only completed the entire exam paper but also had time for a brief review. However, he did not submit the paper, and after leaving the classroom, he had nothing to do. When encountering other teachers, he would also be subjected to unwarranted inquiries.
At this moment, he finally had the time to look at Yang Rui on the left side
Even if one is copying, it shouldn't be done so quickly
Tutors also need to frequently work on practice papers. Whenever there are well-known sets of questions released, such as those from Huanggang, Jinggang, or Jingyang, they must all be completed by the tutors themselves first. Otherwise, when faced with unusual questions, they will be unable to answer if students come to ask, and the so-called prestigious title will be lost.
Especially after he completed the first two questions, he felt an overwhelming sense of momentum.
In comparison, it is more important to implement one's own plan
If everything can be achieved, reaching the average score would be effortless
Is this already half done
During the fifteen-minute break, Teacher Lu entered with the papers
Thus, when the paper imbued with the scent of ink reached Yang Rui's hands, he immediately entered a state of self-forgetfulness while answering the questions
Upon seeing this, Wang Guohua was greatly astonished
