Chapter 6: The Flowing Fire of July (2)

The next two days were mathematics, foreign languages, history, and politics.

When taking the math test, Ye Ziyu was the most frightened, thinking that if he could get 60 points, he would save the capital, and one more point would only be earned. He has always been very embarrassed, when did his math grades become so bad? I remember when he was in elementary school, he participated in math competitions and won prizes, and his level of solving problems was unmatched in the class. What he still remembers vividly is that the teacher praised him and said that the problems in the recent period were all answered by Ye Ziyu, and he almost didn't enjoy him to the sky. But after middle school, he couldn't keep up with his math homework more and more. My father once ridiculed him and said, "What is math in elementary school?" It is called arithmetic in elementary school and algebra in middle school. If you learn arithmetic well, it is an addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and if you are not good at algebra, it means that your logical thinking is too poor.

Ye Ziyu hated in his heart, according to his father's words, not only did he have poor logical thinking, but also worse abstract thinking? When he faced three-dimensional geometry, he was even more dizzy and shuddered. Even after many years, he admired those great gods who were good at mathematics, how could they see the three-dimensional sense from the dotted line?

Naturally, this kind of question is indispensable in the college entrance examination. There are several questions that require you to calculate the angle of a geometric figure. Ye Ziyu didn't know how to deal with it at all, so he simply took the semi-circular protractor and measured it against the figure. I thought to myself, whatever he wants, measure how much is what, otherwise he can't figure it out all day.

Regardless of whether this method is right or wrong, it is okay to deal with fill-in-the-blank questions, and there is always a number to fill in. But the calculation problem is not good, the calculation problem requires the calculation step to be written, he uses the tool quantity, where to find the calculation step?

The final function and geometry proof question has a very high score, but it is not easier for Ye Ziyu to understand the relationship between functions than for him to distinguish whether a tadpole is male or female. He only knows how to sing about wine, and how much life is like. Well, this is still what the father of Cao Zhi, a talented man in Jian'an, said. So in the same way, he could only draw some formulas on the surface with a touch of sadness. In this way, the multiple-choice questions basically follow the feeling, the fill-in-the-blank questions basically rely on the protractor, the proof questions are basically ignorant, and the calculation questions are basically ghostly peach symbols. After handing in the papers, one of his faces basically became bitter melons. Poor Ye Ziyu's mathematics college entrance examination, it passed in such a mess and miserable.

In the morning, I had to take a math test, and in the afternoon, I had to take a foreign language test. For Ye Ziyu, it is another ghost gate. The second day of the college entrance examination is really murderous. When he eats lunch, he has no appetite at all. I wanted to take advantage of the lunch break to memorize a few words, but I didn't expect that he had just memorized for a short while, and he actually fell asleep! When he woke up half an hour later, he was so annoyed that he really wanted to slap himself twice.

In the afternoon, when Ye Ziyu sat in the examination room, she was the most nervous. When the test papers were distributed, he looked sideways at Lu Yuhao, who was a few rows away, and saw that Lu Yuhao had no response. He said in his heart: "God willing, the Chinese nation has reached the most dangerous time!"

Foreign language is first tested for listening, and Ye Ziyu continues to carry forward the concept of following feelings. However, when he completed a lot of English reading, he was surprised to find that it was not very difficult, and he could basically read and answer, which made him overjoyed.

In fact, to learn a foreign language well, vocabulary is very important, and grammar is just a subsection. During this time, Ye Ziyu worked hard in English learning because of frequent exchanges with Yang Wanqing in English letters, and when she encountered words that could not be written, she went to look up the dictionary and memorize them. Before you know it, your vocabulary has increased dramatically. The more he answered the questions, the more relaxed he became, and for the first time he felt that these weird English letters were a little cute. The last high-scoring question in the foreign language test is an announcement written in English based on an example. This is handy for Ye Ziyu, who has written thirty English letters in the past two months. While writing, he was secretly grateful to Yang Wanqing in his heart.

The next day's subjects were finally completed, and Ye Ziyu breathed a long sigh of relief. Because the weakest link has survived. After dinner, he told his parents to go out for a walk and relax. Ye Chengxuan knew that the subjects on the third day were his son's specialty, so he didn't have to worry too much, and he wanted him to change his brain, so he nodded and agreed.

Indeed, for Ye Ziyu, whether he can pass the college entrance examination or not depends on the performance of these two subjects on the second day, and there will be basically no variables in other subjects. To get through this, he has to breathe. However, after he went downstairs, he secretly rode to the downstairs where Yang Wanqing lived. He himself didn't understand his actions, because he knew that it was impossible to ask the other party to meet today, but he couldn't control it.

In the night, the occasional breeze blew through the trees, making the leaves tremble twice, and the crickets in the grass in the corner couldn't stop crying happily. Looking at the faint light from Yang Wanqing's window, Ye Ziyu imagined that she must be sitting in front of the desk intently at this moment, letting the fan blow her long silky hair, and staring at the books and reviewing hard. He didn't dare or think to call out to her, he just stayed quietly outside her window for a moment, and he was satisfied.

After a short delay, he rode back home.

On the third day, the sun was shining. Take the history exam in the morning, this is Ye Ziyu's best subject, don't worry. Therefore, all the way from home to the examination room, he was full of ambition.

Although the examiners of the history test paper racked their brains to make the candidates stumble, Ye Ziyu was calm and solved them one by one. He thought while answering, in fact, the exam is not without fun, but unfortunately, he did not study most of his homework well, and he could not enjoy much fun in the exam.

He finishes the multiple-choice questions and then fills in the blanks. However, happiness and sorrow often happen when a person is about to laugh. As soon as he did two fill-in-the-blank questions, he was sweating. I saw the next question: "During the agrarian revolution, what were the other revolutionary base areas in the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army's founding across Jiangxi, besides the central base areas?"

Ye Ziyu was sweating profusely in an instant, although he knew that it was the three base areas of Hunan and Jiangxi, Hunan and Hubei and Jiangxi, and Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi, but he couldn't remember how to write the word "Gan"? He scratched around on the manuscript paper, figuring out how to write the word "Gan", but he never understood the essentials, until the front and back of the manuscript paper were covered with character marks, and he was still unsure. Time ticked, he was really forced to do it, knowing that he couldn't get points, so he could only write the word "do" hard.

For a while, Ye Ziyu wanted to cry without tears, and she felt bitter in her heart. If he didn't know the answer at all, he would probably feel better, but his mind was short-circuited and he couldn't write Gan characters? Isn't it a big joke that he usually brags that he has a deep foundation in Chinese and can't even write a word at a critical moment?

Seeing the loss of three points, Ye Ziyu was heartbroken, and he had no choice but to answer the question. Every point in the college entrance examination may decide a person's fate! His emotions have been seriously affected.

Coincidentally, the next question is: "The Germanic peoples lived between the Rhine and what rivers very early?"

Ye Ziyu wrote the correct answer: "Danube".

This couldn't help but remind him of the situation when he met Yang Wanqing for the first time, it was Wanqing who told him how to write the word "Nao", which made him catch up with the topic and led to the acquaintance of the two. As soon as the past was cleared in his eyes, a burst of warmth appeared in Ye Ziyu's chest, and his mood slowly calmed down. He thought, after all, it's only three points, so let's hurry up and do the next questions.

Fortunately, the rest of the questions were completed relatively smoothly. With three minutes left before handing in the paper, he had answered all the questions and checked them slightly. At this time, Ye Ziyu became stubborn, flipped to the fill-in-the-blank question above, put a parenthesis on the side, and wrote a line of small words: "Alas! Jiang Gan stole the book, originally for meritorious service, but unfortunately he made a mistake." "Out of the classroom, Fang is a little afraid, the college entrance examination is a big thing, how can it be child's play?

Finally, on the afternoon of July 9, the sprint finally reached the last moment, and only one politics remained.

Politics papers are mainly based on rote memorization and opportunistic shortcuts. Before the exam, Ye Ziyu and her classmates memorized a large number of questions. When I see a familiar topic, I am ecstatic, and when I see an unfamiliar topic, I try my best to write a long story. Anyway, Ye Ziyu's principle is not to leave blank political test papers.

120 minutes later, as the bell rang for the end of the political exam, the college entrance examination mission of this year's senior high school students finally came to an end.

Ye Ziyu walked out of the examination room and looked at his watch, 16:30. This is a historic moment.

The sun shone brightly on the playground, but it didn't make him feel scorching. He saw his classmates Lu Yuhao, Liu Xuan, Liu Yiya, Jiang Yanxi and others walking out of the classroom one by one. They all have relaxed and happy smiles on their faces, which comes from the heart. The campus was already thunderous, with all the candidates cheering and laughing, and the playground was littered with discarded revision materials that had been treasured just a few hours ago.

Legally, you must be at least eighteen years old to be considered an adult. But in their minds, only after finishing high school and bidding farewell to their middle school career, whether they are eighteen years old or not, they are all adults. Although Ye Ziyu felt that he had done an average job in the exam, and he had not gone to life or death, after all, after twelve years of hard work, it had really come to an end now. So he and the candidates around him were wrapped in great emotion and indescribable joy.
