Chapter 227: One More Time
Daylight breaks.
Dyeing the earth red is a sign of good weather today.
Pigeons flew around the air, and in the 80's some students in Brown thought they were excreting everywhere, adding to the problem of school sanitation workers, and they should be sent out.
Animal lovers say they can live freely, art students say that the presence of pigeons can cultivate their sentiments, and girls say that the school is more beautiful with them.
Around the question of the pigeon to stay, has been making trouble for more than half a month, eight debates in a row still did not reach a conclusion, and finally the two sides agreed to build a pigeon building outside the school under the negotiation of the neutrals, in fact, the pigeon still stays on the campus every day, but no one says anything.
Han Xuan came to the school for half a year, and saw a series of student movements in succession, such as protesting the price increase of the canteen, protesting that there were too few courses, protesting against the laying of asphalt roads, protesting against the lack of hot water after 11 o'clock, etc., and a series of student movements, which can be seen from the freedom and openness of Brown University.
Today there was another incident of a similar nature to the pigeons, but mainly in the case of the Mensah test.
Early in the morning, hundreds of students sat in front of Principal Gregory's house, with signs that read: "No to Mensah! No to distinguish students by IQ! We are equal!"
Isabelle, a sleepless fellow, happily banged on the wooden door of the bedroom downstairs and shouted, "Headmaster, Headmaster, someone is protesting again!"
Gregorian hadn't woken up yet, squinted his eyes and opened the door, scratching his stomach: "Isn't the hot water extended to twelve o'clock in the evening this semester, what else is there to do?"
"Mensa, they say that schools secretly distinguish students by IQ. ”
"What's the matter, I make this happen every year, and I get a name faster than anyone else, I'll sleep for a while, I had a nightmare last night. I didn't sleep well, so I was called at seven o'clock. ”
"They said they wouldn't eat in the morning and they were going on a hunger strike. ”
"If you don't eat a meal, you won't starve to death. ”
"Yes"
"Smack!"
The bedroom door closed again, and Isabelli pouted helplessly, walked upstairs, and met Han Xuan standing at the door with his messy hair covered. Asked, "Woke up so early today?"
"It's not that you've woken me up, what's going on outside? There are more people than the time when the asphalt road was paved, not to mention that the asphalt smells bad in summer, and the smell is poisonous, and the people of the pulley club don't know how many times they have been hurt by the potholes on the cement road, and they don't sleep in the morning, so they are really idle. ”
Han Xuan complained, came to the bathroom, squeezed toothpaste into the toothbrush and put it in his mouth. Seeing Isabelli following behind her, "What are you doing, I want to pee." ”
"Cut"
The bell tower rang seven times unhurriedly, and the time was only 6:40.
The bell ringer estimated that something was going on, and he ran away in advance, which was the reason for many early dismissals, and then Mr. Brown would wear a watch to class.
Fat Ding stretched his belly, bit the cat food bag and ran to the owner. If you want to find the guy who invented the sealing clip, you must scratch him to death.
Han Xuan took it. It reflexively ran to the balcony to bite a bowl, and passed by the cat litter to look at Isabelle, signaling that it was time to change.
Isabelli squatted down speechlessly, grabbing the flesh on its face: "You will enjoy it, you can eat and pull." ”
"What time are exams scheduled?"
Han Xuan poured half a bowl and put it in front of Fat Ding, ignoring its pitiful eyes. "After eating, I will go for a walk, I will come back with some milk, the cows from the Snow Mountain Ranch are the same as the ones you drink at home, but I can only give you half a cup. ”
Fat Ding's face collapsed when he heard the ranch. Break free of the girl's hand and eat the cat food sadly.
"Okay, I'll send you back on vacation, stay here for a while. ”
Isabelle looked at him comforting the cat as if he were comforting a child, and chuckled: "Since nine o'clock, the Mensa exam papers of the previous years have been completed, how are the results?"?
"I tested it last night, you say it first. ”
"Up to one hundred and ninety...... Hey, it's your turn. ”
"Why tell you, secret. ”
?“ Die!"
Ramirez also woke up and asked Hou good morning and ran to wash.
Headmaster Gregorian was making breakfast, looked back, and said with a smile: "You just learned the omelet, you try, use fried omelet to wrap ham, bacon, onion, green pepper, mushroom, which flavor do you want?"
One student stood outside the window, his eyes wide open: "Actually, you can add steak too, we're protesting, do you still have time to cook?" ”
"Don't learn to talk as a gangster, call me the headmaster or sir, have you eaten this?"
Gregorian opened the window, multiplied the omelet on a plate and handed it to him, handing him the fork, "Look at the taste." ”
"It's ok, the egg rolls are too old and a bit mushy. ”
"Well, Han Xuan, close the window, classmate, put the plate on the windowsill after eating, I'll clean it up later......"
Harris may have stayed up late again, dozed off and went downstairs, chatted for a while after breakfast, took his things with him, and Gregorian went out to draw fire, and when they left, he swaggered and rode his bicycle to follow.
"You know where the classroom is, right? Who's taking exams at the Slavic Languages Department? I can give him a ride. ”
"I'm in the Cognitive Language Department, right next door to it. Han Xuan stretched out his hand and shouted, jumped into the back seat of the principal's car, and waved his hand at the other three, causing a bunch of white eyes.
There are more than 6,000 students at Brown University, excluding graduate and doctoral students, and those who don't want to take exams, only about 500 want to test their IQ, 30 people in one exam room, divided into more than 10 different classroom exams.
IQs may also rise as they get older, and some professors have joined in the fun, such as Leon Cooper, winner of the '72 Nobel Prize in Physics.
Five of Brown's 700 faculty members are Nobel laureates, and he's one of Gregory's neighbors, "You're here too?"
"You can come, why can't I come. The headmaster punched him and said.
Professor Leon sneered lightly and smiled at Han Xuan, "Come on, go back and tell me the results." ”
Han Xuan smiled and nodded, looked at his location, and walked towards the old building of the Department of Cognitive Languages.
When the examination room was almost full of people, a white-haired professor invigilated the exam, saw the boy come in, and said, "Just find a seat, and don't bring other fools to copy." ”
The gasps in the classroom suddenly became a little heavier.
Han Xuan lay down the gun, spread his hands to show that it was none of his business, sat down and took out a pen, and distributed the test papers on time at nine o'clock, there were two in total, and gave them scratch paper for them to calculate and deduce.
"These are the graphic parts, forty minutes in time, now begins.
Hey, people haven't written it yet, what are you doing with your head sticking out your brain? Copying can't hide your stupidity. ”
The old teacher said calmly.
The student was about to cry: "I have one less test paper." ”
"No wonder I have three. ”
“…… The one in front, are you an idiot?"
Han Xuan lowered his head and answered the question, the three irregular geometric patterns above, according to them to find out what the fourth one should be, did not find the rule, squinted his eyes and saw that it was composed of CDE, and was familiar with the pattern of choosing an F composition.
The second figure is the first one rotates 90 degrees clockwise, and the third one is completely different, skip the first two figures, find the third one rotated 90 degrees clockwise, and fill in a C in the space......
The Mensa test is a test of attention, observation and graphical thinking skills, and the more you go to the back, the more difficult it becomes, and it takes less than 15 minutes to complete the paper.
After taking the text test paper back and doing it, the old professor quickly scanned the answers, looked at Han Xuan thoughtfully, and bowed his head to correct it.
The text test lasts for an hour, which is slightly more complicated than the graphic question, and there are more questions.
Standing at the door and waiting for seven or eight minutes, the professor on the podium finished correcting and registering, handed him the test paper, and patted Han Xuan on the shoulder: "Congratulations, there is a place downstairs for registered members, you go to them now." ”
"The Mensa test is converted into a standard IQ according to the length of answering and age, and the highest test can be 230, and this test paper can only be measured to 190, and you have already exceeded it, so Mensa will make a new test paper for you, and you will be notified when the time comes. ”
Han Xuan opened the test paper and looked at it, raised his eyebrows and said, "The highest is 230, then Tao Zhexuan is not"
"Well, maybe even higher. (To be continued.) )
