Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The news of the establishment of the Academy of Literature and Art in Vientiane was reported as early as the beginning of the year, and it was also confirmed by insiders, but there has been no official announcement on the enrollment standards and methods.
Zhao Kan said that the news of the essay came naturally from the forum friends, the so-called masters are in the people, Bai Xiaosheng is in the forum, besides, this kind of superiority in grasping a certain information resource in advance is not shown, it is as uncomfortable as a hen enduring an egg.
So the "insider" gave the egg to Zhao Kan, and Zhao Kan gave the egg to his roommate.
"Everyone can try it," Zhao Kan persuaded in a condescending tone, "just buy a welfare lottery." β
"So, Kanye, you will definitely participate. β
"Ten years of sharpening a sword, the frost blade has not been tried. Zhao Kan said in high spirits, and then looked at Sun Xinyang, who had been silent, "Old Sun, what about you, are you not interested?"
Sun Xinyang replied in a firm tone: "Nan Hong and I are determined to be admitted to the University of Science and Technology of China, and then go abroad, regardless of other schools, and I can't afford to study in Vientiane, I think Jingting can try." β
"Isn't this asking me to play with a big knife in front of Guan Gong and write an essay in front of Kanye?"
Sun Xinyang smiled and said nothing, and Yu Xiaoshu continued: "Isn't it true that no one thinks that my writing is also very good?
Zhao Kannian said: "'I broke up with you in September, I feel like I lost a whole autumn', Jiang Zi's writing can't go to the essay collection, okay? Do you know that Director Kang is a doctor of literature, are you sure that he can feel your sadness after seeing this sentence?"
"What about my words, 'The raindrops on that umbrella are my inadvertent tears. Because my tears are the rain that flies in the sky, and the rain in the sky is a question mark in the sky. Just waiting for you to give me an answer', isn't this sentence very feeling? Figurative sentences are useful. β
Liu Jingting and Sun Xinyang couldn't help but smile and waited for Zhao Kan's comment, Zhao Kan clenched his fists with both hands, made a state of collapse, and roared: "Yu Xiaoshu, you can't do this, such a superficial sentence, such a pretentiousness to give new words and strong worries can't pass the audition." β
Liu, Sun, and Yu all burst out laughing. Zhao Kan also smiled and said: "Generally speaking, we people don't have the slightest chance to enter Vientiane, with this essay, the situation is different, so why don't you try it." β
"Is Vientiane that good? Except, of course, the prize money. Yu Xiaoshu asked seriously.
Zhao Kan shook his head. Looking at Yu Xiaoshu's two eyes, one with "at the bottom of the well" and the other with "Frog", he broke the news in an insider's tone: "The tuition and miscellaneous fees in Vientiane add up, and it will probably not be lower than this number every year," Zhao Kan stretched out his middle and index fingers, "Even so." Every year, a large number of children from middle-class or even ordinary families apply, do you know why?"
Liu Jingting continued: "The main student groups in Vientiane are some second generations, and after entering, they will make friends with two casually, and they will have to fight for a few years, if they can be mixed into some super second generation henchmen." went directly to the well-off. β
Zhao Kan nodded and praised: "Jingting's brain is fast. Boys from ordinary families naturally want to be confidants, but girls, I don't need to say more, right?"
Yu Xiaoshu drew inferences from one another: "Sugar daddy, fishing for the second generation." β
"Although Xiaoshu's reaction was half a beat slower, it could be regarded as keeping up with the rhythm," Zhao Kan said to Yu Xiaoshu, and continued: "Who wouldn't want to do this kind of lucrative investment? Therefore, it is not surprising that Vientiane rejects several provincial college entrance examination champions every year." β
"I only know how to read dead books, and I don't fit in anymore. Sun Xinyang laughed at himself.
"Since it's so powerful, it's impossible to rely on an essay to recruit students in a grand manner, right? Liu Jingting knew the mentality of the storyteller, and asked a question that was appropriate for the situation.
"Of course it's impossible, there should be a series of games, and it is estimated that I will have to go to Jianghai to participate in the live competition, I don't know the specifics, there should be detailed news released in the next two days. β
β¦β¦
The next day, the news of Wan Xianwen spread throughout the country.
At the end of the second class in the morning, there was a fifteen-minute long break, but before everyone had time to go out, the head teacher Tian Bo hurriedly walked in.
"Delay everyone for a few minutes, say something important," as he spoke, Mr. Tian magically added a piece of paper in his hand, "Okay, don't talk anymore, be quiet." β
The classroom was already very quiet, but the young homeroom teacher instinctively maintained discipline in order to create a tense atmosphere and sell an unfathomable pass.
The classroom suddenly fell silent.
"Everyone has heard of Vientiane School Park, right?"
Of course, everyone had heard about it and scrambled to say yes.
"Yes,It's the school that rejected our provincial champion last year.,The news I brought today is about Vientiane School Park,"Technical pause,"Specifically,It's about the newly established School of Literature and Art in Vientiane School Park,I believe you have learned this information from the news or the Internet,I won't repeat it.,What I want to tell you today is,Students who are partial to the subject languageγGood at writing essays,Your gospel is coming,The first private enrollment of the literature major of the Vientiane Academy of Literature and Art,It will be carried out in the form of guΓ² essaysγ β
Teacher Tian glanced at everyone and continued: "There are four stages in this essay contest, namely the audition, the top 16, the top 8 and the finals, of which the audition is for all high school students in middle schools across the country, everyone can contribute," shook the paper in his hand, " Wait a minute, I'll post this notice next to the blackboard,You can copy down your email address,At the same time, I want to remind you,Don't take chances,Just ask someone to write a submission,Because the competition after the audition,To participate in the Jianghai Vientiane School Park in person,It's all on-site questions,On-site writing,Zeng MeilingγChen Haowei and a few other students with good writing can prepare well,Of course,There must be some hidden masters in the class,You can tryγ β
"I can tell you very responsibly that the leaders of the Education Commission attach great importance to this matter, and I hope that someone from our region will enter Vientiane this year, in addition to the high scholarship in Vientiane. There will also be a series of incentives for the Education Bureau and individual schools. β
After speaking, Teacher Tian handed the notice to Zeng Meiling, the representative of the Chinese class, and then left the classroom. The class was suddenly chaotic, and everyone gathered around Zeng Meiling's desk, and then bursts of exclamations rang out from time to time.
"Wow, 500,000 bonus! I don't even want to study when I get the bonus. β
"The deadline for May is more than a month. β
"The accommodation and travel expenses for the Jianghai competition are all free, if I enter the top 16, wouldn't it be equivalent to a free trip to the rivers and seas during the summer vacation?"
β¦β¦
When the notice reached Liu Jingting, the morning class had already ended. Because everyone watched very carefully, especially many people stared at the staggering bonuses for a long time.
After Liu Jingting received the piece of paper, he took a general glance and saw the school motto of Vientiane "Knowledge is power", and then scanned the schedule setting, and the audition will be closed from now until May 10th, after that. Vientiane will organize a strong expert jury to screen the top 16 from the manuscripts, and these 16 people will arrive at Jianghai Vientiane School Park on the designated date to prepare for the next three rounds of on-site competition for half a month.
The sea topic is a propositional essay with only two simple words: gift.
There are no superfluous explanations, including word count, subject matter, and no explanation at all.
Liu Jingting read this. It didn't take more than six minutes before and after, and he quickly passed the holy paper to the girl who was silent and waited so far, and then got up and went to the cafeteria to eat.
Not surprisingly, the entire cafeteria was discussing this essay contest. Some people blame themselves for not practicing their essays well, and some people are implicitly ambitious. Some people pretended to ask others to participate, and some frankly said that they would prepare well......
"So, you're going to be there too, right?"
Liu Jingting had just sat down opposite Mi Hu with a rice plate, and Mi Hu couldn't wait to ask.
"What do you think?"
"Not necessarily, you shouldn't take that scholarship seriously. β
Liu Jingting said with a smile: "I seem to be an upstart. β
"You are. β
"I'll attend. β
Mi Hu was slightly stunned, then relieved, and said, "Because you don't want to take the college entrance examination?"
Liu Jingting shook his head and said: "I checked Vientiane on the Internet, and I feel that it suits my taste, the integration of Eastern and Western educational characteristics is good, the teachers are even more powerful and dazzling, and the campus scenery is also very beautiful, it is said that their auditorium is listed as one of the new ten views of Jianghai, how many local tyrants does this school have to do this?"
"The students on the eighth floor are all rich kids, and it is said that they change their mobile phones more often than they change their toothpaste, are you sure you really adapt?"
"These are superficial things. β
Mi Hu stared at Liu Jingting for a few seconds, and suddenly asked, "You are not because of any teachers and campus scenery, you are because their student apartment is mixed, right?"
"Huh?"
"Don't pretend to be garlic, you boys, what else can you think about in your head but these things?"
"I said Hu Xiaomi, are you thinking too complicated, the so-called mix and match is just sharing a living room, don't office workers rent this kind of single room now?"
Mi Hu ignored it and continued to say indignantly: "Don't be so confident, you are very good at writing martial arts, but this essay is different, what they need is a traditional article, if you are ready to vote for martial arts, ninety percent of it is no play, take it as soon as possible." β
"Understood. β
Mi Hu still felt that it was inappropriate in his heart, but he didn't know what was wrong, but he instinctively resisted Liu Jingting to go to Vientiane, and after a while, he said leisurely: "Vientiane is the most shining aristocratic school in the country, and it is the ivory tower that countless people dream of, but it is also a world of flowers." β
Liu Jingting said with a smile: "Then if you go to the United States, wouldn't it be a more fancy world?"
"So you're taking revenge on me?"
Liu Jingting hurriedly shook his head and said: "How is it possible, I'm really curious, I heard Zhao Kan mention Vientiane last night, I went to the Internet to search for it, and saw that the election of their student union president turned out to be a imitation of the presidential election of the United States, this is too interesting and tempting, I have to go and see it." β
Mi Amber was still low, Liu Jingting suddenly reached out and patted the back of her hand, and said softly: "You have to believe me, otherwise how will the transnational love continue in the next few years?"
Mi Hu pouted, no longer dwelling on this question, and said, "Mom promised you to accompany me to Nangang for the exam." β
"Great, how did you convince her old man?"
"I told her, if you don't go, I won't go either. β
"High. β
β¦β¦
Throughout the afternoon, the students were silent in the news of the universal symbolic text, and the students who were ready to give it a go had already begun to conceive an article about the "gift", one would look up in contemplation, the other would bow their heads to write and draw, their mouths were full of words, and their eyes were embarrassed.
Liu Jingting also began to look for relevant articles in the vast volumes, since there is no explanation in the essay call for papers, that is, there is no limit to the subject matter, the number of words, and the idea;
They only gave more than a month, which means that the article is not too long;
In a nutshell, it's a short and medium-length story about gifts.
The books in Liu Jingting's mind flashed quickly in front of him like slides, and just as he was about to raise his eyebrows, he suddenly heard a "pop" sound from the podium, and he was startled.
"I know what you're doing?"
The forty-year-old middle-aged math teacher finally couldn't bear everyone's snub and lost his temper, "Aren't you just thinking about how to write an essay, right?"
Liu Jingting nodded subconsciously, and happened to be seen by the teacher, he pointed at Liu Jingting with a calm face, and said, "That classmate, you stand up." β
Liu Jingting got up honestly.
"You were nodding your head just now?"
Liu Jingting nodded slightly again and replied, "Yes." β
"So, you're going to participate in an essay contest too?"
"Hmm. β
A discordant laugh with a hint of sarcasm came from somewhere.
"In other words, in order to participate in this essay contest, you don't need to study other subjects?"
"It's not. β
"And you're still nodding?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Listen to this lesson standing up. β
So, Liu Jingting stood like a black pot and listened to a math class, before the end of class, the math teacher said with a black face: "There are tens of millions of high school students in the country, and I don't know how many of them write well, they only gave three places in this enrollment, you should calculate the probability, how many chances you have, don't lose the watermelon in the end, and sprinkle the sesame seeds." "It's time to get out of class.
As soon as the math teacher left, Liu Jingting heard someone deliberately start to talk in a "whisper" that happened to let him hear: "It seems that everyone has awakened their literary talent in an instant, and they should really be buying lottery tickets." β
Liu Jingting ignored these voices, he probably knew that because he had always kept a distance from everyone, the classmates in this class were full of all kinds of malice towards him, and he naturally would not blame or resent them, in his eyes, these classmates were already juniors.
Ignoring it is easy to be regarded as disdain, so the discussion is louder, and the rhetoric is more intense, probably "wishful thinking" and the like, for Liu Jingting, who is used to all kinds of abuse and ridicule, what the classmates said is too polite.
Seeing that Liu Jingting still didn't take himself seriously, the discussant finally became angry, and Chen Haowei, who was known as the "No. 1 Talent in the Second Class", walked up to Liu Jingting and asked: "Liu Jingting, you didn't hear everyone talking about your mother, why do you want to make a disdainful look, do you think your English grades are so great?"
Liu Jingting looked at this middle school freshman who was a little outrageous, laughed and was about to appease him, when his eyes suddenly fell on his watch, he had an idea, thought of a good article, patted Chen Haowei's shoulder happily, and said, "Thank you." (To be continued)
