Chapter 210 Follow-up to the League
Chapter 210 League Follow-up
The summer camp training lasted for ten days, and on the last day, the final provincial league exam finally came.
There are two examinations in the league, divided into the first test and the second test.
It is worth noting that although the provincial leagues are organized and graded independently by each province, the examination questions are unified across the country.
The first test is held from 8:00 to 9:20 in the morning. The test paper includes 8 fill-in-the-blank questions (8 points each) and 3 answer questions (16 points, 20 points, and 20 points respectively). The full score of the whole paper is 120 points.
The second test is held from 9:40 to 12:30 in the morning. The test paper includes 4 solution questions, involving plane geometry, algebra, number theory, and combination. The first two questions are 40 points each, and the last two questions are 50 points each. The full score is 180 points.
After the examination, the candidates for the provincial first prize, provincial second prize, and provincial third prize will be divided according to their scores.
The list of provincial teams will be determined internally, and members of the provincial teams will be eligible to participate in the national finals.
The weather on the day of the exam was excellent, with clear skies and a bright sun.
As early as the day before, Song Ranran had been recharging her energy. Although the exam started a bit early today, she was still full of energy.
Different from the open and relaxed atmosphere during the training camp explained by the teacher a few days ago, when I actually went to the examination room, the atmosphere was tense and intense.
Although everyone in the classroom is quiet, there is an invisible undercurrent hidden beneath the silence.
Just waiting for the bell to ring, all the students were racing against time to answer the questions.
This invisible war horn has officially sounded.
——
Compared with the preliminary round, the difficulty of the league test questions is undoubtedly much higher.
The exam has just begun, and already there are students inside who are pulling their hair.
On one side, he was constantly calculating with a pen in his hand, and on the other side, his hair was falling one by one.
There are not many questions on the paper, but... each question is difficult.
It's only June, and the hottest part of summer has not yet arrived, but the candidates sitting in their seats already feel unspeakable anxiety.
Time passes by minute by minute.
The atmosphere gradually became anxious.
Especially those students who have not made much progress on the answers, the sense of urgency in their hearts is getting stronger and stronger.
However, the more nervous you are, the easier it is to get confused.
This is Lin Zongsheng's second time participating in the Mathematical Olympiad. Last year he didn't even pass the preliminary rounds, but this year he advanced to the league.
But what happens if you advance?
He looked at his paper with blank answers, his eyes slightly bitter.
He was as anxious and nervous as everyone else, but even though he was sweating profusely, he still made no progress in solving the problem, as if he had entered a dead end.
Feeling depressed, Lin Zongsheng closed his eyes and opened them again. He no longer looked at the paper, but raised his head to look around.
Sitting on his right is a slender girl with a high ponytail and wearing a white school uniform shirt.
Through the corner of his eye, Lin Zongsheng recognized the half-white profile of Song Ranran from Mingcheng No. 1 Middle School.
Ranked first in the training mock exam, he knows her.
Unlike other students around her who were in a hurry to answer questions, Song Ranran felt very stable.
Moving like clouds and flowing water, a heavy weight seems to be light.
The distance between the two tables was a bit far, so Lin Zongsheng couldn't see what she was writing, but he could guess from the sound of turning pages that she was progressing very quickly.
Lin Zongsheng: Maybe this is the boss of the competition.
But perhaps due to some influence from Song Ranran's calm posture, Lin Zongsheng's mentality calmed down.
He lowered his head again, stopped caring about other things, and tried new methods to solve the problem.
…
Two exams lasted all morning.
Mathematical Olympiad is an activity that consumes a lot of brain cells. After a long examination time, it is really tiring.
It was already noon when Song Ranran came out of the examination room.
A teacher from Mingcheng No. 1 Middle School was waiting for his students outside. Because there were so many people, he even held a sign high.
Seeing the conspicuous red sign in the crowd, Song Ranran followed the direction and walked over.
As she approached, she wanted to say hello to the teacher, but suddenly she found three more familiar figures in her sight -
Jiang Wan, Qi Ye, and Rong Zhou.
In fact, I feel that I am not very good at writing. When I became a writer, I have been facing two problems-slow coding and lack of inspiration. When Zhaozhao was in high school, his Chinese language scores were relatively the worst among the three major subjects.
The bad one. Many times, I don’t know how to describe the story, so I try to write it in a way that I like and feel comfortable with. Art comes from life and is higher than life. In novels, I will unconsciously add
Some things I encountered or my own life situation hahaha.
Anyway, thank you guys for your tolerance and support~ Zhao Zhao is more sincere, okay!
In addition, Zhaozhao will start school soon. I will do nucleic acid test tomorrow. Good night everyone~
Chapter completed!
