Half an hour's drive, the bus of Nangang No. 2 Middle School arrived at the Provincial Experimental Middle School.

This is the venue of this year's Provincial High School Mathematics League Nangang Division.

There are math leagues in all provinces of the country, which are organized by the provinces themselves.

The Nanyue Provincial High School Mathematics League is jointly organized by the Provincial Department of Education and the Provincial Mathematics Society, and is held once a year.

The competition method is an exam, and all participants make a paper, with a time limit of 90 minutes, which is a test.

Try to set three score lines, from high to low for the provincial team line, the first prize, and the second prize.

According to the data of previous years, 40% of the participants can win the second prize, and 10% of the participants can win the first prize.

The provincial team line is very difficult, with an online rate of only 0.8%.

The students who can participate in the mathematics competition are the top mathematics students in each school, and they are one out of a hundred.

After one out of a hundred, then eight out of a thousand, and then continue to eliminate half of the people, and the few people left will represent the provincial team in the national competition. This is a retest.

Shen Qi wanted to stay, this was his goal here.

The organizing committee will check the student ID card and participation card of each participant according to the procedure, and mobile phones and all electronic devices are not allowed to be brought into the venue.

Shen Qi was taken by the staff to a classroom on the second floor of the teaching building, where four rows of desks were placed, one row of seven rows, and a total of 28 contestants competed in the same field.

Shen Qi and his eleven teammates were placed in twelve different classrooms, and his seat was in the first row of the second column.

Sit down, put the ballpoint pen, pencil, ruler, compass, and eraser on the table, and Shen Qi waited for the test paper to be issued.

Before the exam papers are distributed, the invigilator will distribute the draft paper to the contestants.

In addition to the necessary stationery such as pen rulers, contestants are not allowed to bring even a piece of paper into the arena, and the country is quite strict in the selection of mathematics professionals.

Shen Qi closed his eyes and recuperated, don't be anxious, don't panic, I have made several sets of several volumes, this thing is not difficult at all.

At 10 o'clock, the first try started on time.

There are two types of questions in this paper.

8 fill-in-the-blank questions, each worth 8 points, 64 points.

3 answers and proof questions, 56 points.

The total score of the roll is 120 points.

The examiner seems to have a preference for geometry, and there are a total of 11 questions in this paper, of which 8 are geometry questions.

This is probably following the trend of the IMO in recent years, and recently there has been a geometric wind in the world, and geometric themes have repeatedly appeared in the IMO arena.

Fill-in-the-blank questions are too easy for Shen Qi, this type of question does not need to write the derivation proof process, and it is over with an answer.

It doesn't matter if I use the theory of non-Euclidean geometry or coordinate geometry, just give you the right answer.

Shen Qi quickly completed 8 fill-in-the-blank questions and began to do the next three solution questions and proof questions.

The first problem is the three-dimensional geometry proof problem, in which a sphere is drawn on the surface of the paper with a triangular pyramid embedded in it, and it is necessary to prove that the center of gravity of the triangular pyramid and the center of gravity of the sphere coincide.

The second problem is plane analytic geometry, which requires the proof that a curve can never pass through the junction of the x-axis and the y-axis.

The third problem is pure algebra, which requires finding a complex number α to make a formula true.

"It's not difficult, it's really not difficult, could it be that I made a fake scroll?"

After dividing five by two, Shen Qi quickly wrote the proof, solution process, and answer of the three questions on scratch paper.

For fear that what he had done was a fake paper, he checked it several times, and Shen Qi dared to write the content on the scratch paper on the exam paper, and his hand holding the ballpoint pen trembled slightly.

"It is said that the proportion of the provincial team line is less than 1%, and if I get a perfect score, I will definitely be able to enter this 1%. Could it be that this paper is too simple, and everyone can get a full score?"

Shen Qi looked left, right, and looked back.

The guy on the left is sweating profusely, it's not hot, and the air conditioning is turned on in the classroom, and I feel cold.

The young lady on the right frowned, as if she had encountered a difficult problem that she couldn't solve.

The one in the back looks loveless, he must be doubting life.

There are all kinds of signs that Shen Qi felt that the exam papers were simple in the whole examination room, and everyone else was in trouble.

"Hey, don't look around!" The invigilator walked to Shen Qi's desk and knocked on the table with a serious expression.

"Teacher, let me ask, who came out with this volume?" Shen Qi whispered.

"I don't know!"

"Okay, okay, I'll hand in the papers. ”

Shen Qi packed up his stationery and put it in his schoolbag, and laid out the exam papers on the table.

Carrying his schoolbag, Shen Qi stood up and put his hands in his trouser pockets, and he left the examination room leisurely.

……

After the first test of the Mathematics Federation in the morning, the judges of the Provincial Mathematics Association began to review the examination papers of the Nangang Division in the afternoon.

Nangang City is the provincial capital, and the headquarters of the Provincial Mathematical Society is located in this southern coastal metropolis.

This time, more than 1,200 high school students who love mathematics and like mathematics in the province signed up for the competition, and more than half of the applicants in Nangang City alone signed up for the competition.

The marking work of the Nangang Division lasted from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m., and the ten judges started to review more than 600 first-test papers at the same time.

Two younger girls are statisticians and are in charge of statistics.

Yu Huabo, Provincial Experimental Middle School, 101 points. ”

Zhou Jian, High School Attached to Southern Normal University, 98 points. ”

Meng Tianqiang, City No. 2 Middle School, 94 points. ”

Li Xinyan, City No. 6 Middle School, 82 points. ”

Zhao Liang, City No. 8 Middle School, 8 points...... I feel sorry for this little boy, only 8 points, and he got a fill-in-the-blank question right. ”

Huo Jiawen, City No. 2 Middle School, 1 point...... How did you get that 1 point?

"I take a look at this 1-point little boy's paper, and it's really a consolation prize, his fill-in-the-blank questions are all wrong, and the answer questions and proof questions are all wrong, and the judges give 1 point because I'm afraid he won't be able to accept the blow of 0 points, right?"

"Give 1 less point because you are afraid of your pride, and only give 1 point because you are afraid of your collapse? Once the teacher who engages in mathematics becomes humorous, it is really irresistible. ”

The work of the two statisticians of the Provincial Mathematics Association is to count the scores of the completed examination papers into the computer for sorting, and they are both interns majoring in mathematics, and it is more likely that they will become mathematics teachers in primary and secondary schools in the future.

"The papers of this year's first test of the Digital Federation are so difficult, and until now, I have not seen a full score of 120 exam papers. ”

"It is estimated that this year's first prize line is 90 points, and last year it was 100 points. ”

"Keep working, Shen Qi, City No. 2 Middle School...... Meow a!"

"What are you doing!"

"Shen Qi, City No. 2 Middle School, 120 points! The first full-score exam paper actually came from City No. 2 Middle School. ”

"The No. 2 Middle School in the city is also a key high school, so what's all the fuss. Show me the masterpiece of this little boy with perfect scores, hey, what the hell is the three question marks added to the end of 120?"

Shen Qi's roll score is 120, and three question marks, which are connected to "120???".

"For the exam paper numbered 519, I'll ask the judges, what is the situation of the little boy's 120 in the second middle school in the city?"
