Chapter 4 Rapid Progress
Whether a seed can grow into a towering tree depends not only on the variety, but also on a long period of time.
Although Chen Hao is already amazingly talented, he is an understanding person, no matter how good his talent is, he only has a good foundation for his rise, and hard work is essential.
Nothing can be obtained in vain, good luck can meet once is already a great blessing, and you can't delusional good luck to accompany you for a lifetime. Everything in this world can be traced, there are no industrial empires that suddenly appear, there are no high-rise buildings that suddenly rise, talent can be improved, knowledge cannot be instilled. Only by learning and accumulating a little bit can you become stronger, and Chen Hao feels that he should enjoy this process of becoming stronger very much.
There is no waste of time, Chen Hao has been put into crazy learning on the first day of class, physics, chemistry are subjects that can be easily started, Chen Hao finished reading the other three books of physics in one morning, and by the way, he made a set of physics college entrance examination review papers, and the results were very satisfied. The most difficult thing in the physics exam is the practical application of knowledge points, which is not difficult for Chen Hao, the transformation of various formulas in his mind, and the explanations of examples in life step by step, are actually the foundation. This test paper of average difficulty, Chen Hao easily won it in an hour.
Serious study, happy play, good sleep, and a combination of work and rest are very reasonable.
Eat and sleep at noon, and review chemistry in the afternoon. The focus of high school chemistry is on chemical reaction equations. It is necessary not only to memorize, but also to skill, and more importantly, to understand. Chen Hao feels that he was born for chemistry, and he already has a good chemical foundation, and various reaction equations can be easily solved. High school chemistry exams sometimes have extracurricular content, but it changes in a form. Understand the principles of chemical reactions, memorize some special chemical components, and then grasp the specific laws based on the periodic table. When he put it down in the afternoon, Chen Hao finished reading two books. As long as you accumulate a little more knowledge after class, you can easily get it done. Chen Hao was thinking about whether to study more deeply.
In order to achieve the first-class level, it is not enough to study textbooks, but also to accumulate a lot of knowledge outside of class. Chen Hao knows that there are some very powerful people who study university courses in high school, and that is a situation where they are very interested in certain things. There is a good chance that this person will be the next scientist. This kind of person is talented, coupled with fanatical enough, and generally stands out from the crowd and achieves something.
Two days passed, and the knowledge in the textbook was thoroughly eaten. Chen Hao began to walk towards the library, there were many extracurricular books in the library, and there was no shortage of Olympiad topics.
So Li Yong found out that Chen Hao did not go to the novel bookstore but went to the library instead. What he reads now is not a novel, but a very authentic extracurricular book. What "The Principle of All Things", "Where Physics Meets the Mind", "The Evolution of Physics", "We Live in the World of Magnetism", and later "The Molecular Republic", "The Shortcut to Chemistry", "The History of Chemistry". Li Yong felt that Chen Hao had taken the wrong medicine, and many familiar people also thought so. It's also so easy to learn, it's the last semester of the third year of high school, and I still have so much time to read extracurricular books.
Chen Hao no longer cares what others think of him. People's mentality has changed, and familiar environments feel unfamiliar.
After the end of the second week, Chen Hao read more than 20 extracurricular books. Some of them are simple and some are difficult, Chen Hao has to understand and absorb them and turn them into his own knowledge, and at the same time, he will also record some new knowledge. He ignored the other teachers in class or something, that was not the efficiency he wanted. It's a pity that the library of the high school doesn't have a collection of college textbooks, otherwise you can study it.
Now Chen Hao is exercising in addition to studying. Exercising is running, push-ups, pull-ups, leg presses, etc.
In the third week, Chen Hao began to do some difficult topics, which require a certain amount of extracurricular knowledge, which is why Chen Hao read extracurricular books first. Some of the problems are not for the average high school student, or even college students may not be able to solve them.
It is not only the language that needs to be accumulated, but also the profound learning of any course requires rich accumulation. At this time, Chen Hao was holding a copy of "National High School Physics Competition Questions" and answering. Solving such problems requires good thinking skills, and the idea of solving this kind of problem is different from that of ordinary high school questions. It involves a wider range of knowledge and requires a thorough application of each formula. If you don't have a certain talent, you really don't need to do such a problem, and even if you figure out a few questions, you won't necessarily be able to grow a little bit.
With more than 300 questions, Chen Hao thought while doing it. At this time, I found that the usual exam questions are as simple as 1+1. Chen Hao was answering, answering, summarizing, and solving the problem faster and faster. From the beginning, some problems are so difficult that it takes an hour to solve a problem, and a problem can be solved in the next ten minutes. It took Chen Hao a week to complete this exercise. There is almost no need to look at the reference answer later, Chen Hao is confident that the answer he solved is correct.
Learning is like this, when the accumulation reaches a certain level, all kinds of questions can be answered at hand. The more you accumulate, the less confused you will be when you learn, and the faster you will learn.
Unconsciously, Chen Hao has surpassed these classmates too much. When he put down the book, he remembered that he should have reached or even exceeded the first-class level. The thought turned in his mind, and sure enough, he had a talent point.
Chen Hao chose to exchange for English talent. But instead of starting to learn English right away, he continued to study chemistry. Chen Hao found a copy of the same chemistry material "National High School Chemistry Competition Questions", and it took a week, during which he also deliberately found some materials to complete this book with a variety of contents and a wide range of questions. Gain another talent point. Chen Hao changed his talent for mathematics.
At this time, a month has passed, and the first city-wide unified mock exam has begun, and Chen Hao doesn't care much about it. When you take the exam, you go to the exam room and continue with your study plan the rest of the time.
Chen Hao didn't play his true skills during the exam, and he didn't want to attract some unnecessary trouble and attention. Except for physics, chemistry, and mathematics, the scores are only a little higher than usual, and the others are all very normal levels, and even because they didn't review seriously this month, they went down in the exam. But he doesn't care, no matter what other classmates think, in fact, not too many people care about him, others just see that his recent studies are a little abnormal, and they don't think he's really that good.
The one who laughs at the end is the real winner. Keeping a low profile is just building up strength when you need to burst out.
When the mock test results came out, Chen Hao was already doing high school math Olympiad questions. Mathematics is mainly divided into academic mathematics and applied mathematics, Chen Hao did not read any extracurricular books, mainly through problems and summaries. When Chen Hao got a talent point, he knew that his math level was already proud of high school students. This talent point, Chen Hao continued to change his language talent.
Chinese is a very strong subject, and it is also a basic subject. The main language in China is Chinese. It is the basis for learning other knowledge. Chen Hao feels that as a Chinese, since he has the opportunity to learn this basic Chinese well, he should learn it better. It is good not to be a pedant, but to reach a certain level, to be able to read and understand good works, to write good articles, and to speak fluently and connotatively. As long as you can reach the first-class level of the same kind, you can also get a talent point. However, Chen Hao didn't plan to change anything so soon, this can be slowly learned and accumulated, and when the time comes, it will naturally pass.
You need to be interested in learning a course to learn well, but whether you are interested or not depends largely on whether you are happy to learn. If you learn, understand, and think it's interesting, then you are interested in learning, and if you don't understand it, or you are naturally bored, then it is useless to cultivate interest, or there are so many children who are rebellious because their parents force them to learn.
Chen Hao doesn't hate learning, as long as he can learn, he doesn't care about accumulating a little more knowledge. Therefore, Chen Hao believes that before the college entrance examination, his language level should improve a lot.
Chen Hao's science studies came to an end for the time being, and the liberal arts began to become the main goal of his studies, followed by learning English and Chinese. Liberal arts are still learned from textbooks, and English is one of the key points. It is very simple for Chen Hao to improve his English, his high school English knowledge is very basic, but it is such a basic English, he has stumped himself for a few years, and it seems that his previous English talent is really unsightly.
Li Yong, as Chen Hao's former best book friend, often pays attention to Chen Hao's actions. From the beginning, Chen Hao read physics and chemistry textbooks, and later read extracurricular books and did exercises, which was still a super difficult project in the national competition, and he found that Chen Hao did it with relish. Later, I started to study mathematics again, and I actually did Olympiad problems, do you think you need this? The last question of the college entrance examination is not as difficult as one-tenth of this one-tenth. He didn't know how much Chen Hao had figured out. Later, I found out that Chen Hao studied English and Chinese, as he said at the beginning of the school year, first review science and then liberal arts. But Li Yong is strange, why hasn't Chen Hao's exam scores improved much?
The last semester of the third year of high school is actually only about 14 weeks. Excluding various exams, there is basically not much time to study. At this time, it was already the sixth week, and Chen Hao had spent five weeks studying physics, chemistry, and mathematics, and now he had been learning English for a week.
Now learning English is no longer the embarrassment that I know you and you don't know me. Chen Hao feels that learning English is much easier than those who speak English as their mother tongue. You must know that it is not that people who speak Chinese will learn Chinese easily, the same people have different talents and contributions, and the gains are equally different.
In the past week, Chen Hao has read five English textbooks in English. The speed is not fast or slow, mainly because although I haven't gained much in English learning before, at least I have worked hard for so long, and I am not unfamiliar.
How to learn English, Chen Hao has heard too many methods. The teacher also paid attention to analyzing his experience in learning English, so it was not difficult to memorize words, grammar, and sentence patterns. After a week of finishing the textbook, the next step is to consolidate. The way is to do exercises, geniuses grow very fast, but they also need people to teach. Chen Hao often consults English teachers, in class, after class, reading in the morning and self-study in the evening, Chen Hao never gets tired of learning.
Zheng Peiying saw that Chen Hao was studying so seriously, and there was no reason not to teach him. But Zheng Peiying found that Chen Hao's learning speed was really fast, and the content in the textbook was also very solid, and he could master the learning of various knowledge points once he analyzed it. The questions Chen Hao asked her began to become more open, no longer limited to textbooks and general exam questions, and sometimes those questions stuck on him. After all, Zheng Peiying only teaches high school English, and even if her English level has passed level 6, she has been teaching high school for a long time, after all, it will cause limitations, and her level will inevitably decline. After all, knowledge is something that is not commonly used and will slowly become useless.
At the end of the eighth week, Chen Hao got a talent point, and his English finally reached the first-class level among similar students. After all, in China, English is only used as an exam for high school students, and if you want to really use it, you still have to go to college to achieve something.
Chen Hao's English level, Zheng Peiying is estimated to have passed level 4, reaching the excellent level of ordinary undergraduate graduates. Listening to his fluent English, she was amazed at how fast the progress was.
At this time, the second city-wide unified mock test is about to start again.
