"Professor Li Bo, the third judge, please!"

As soon as the host's voice fell, the hall immediately remembered the thunderous applause, and saw a middle-aged man with a beautiful face and a bright look walk into the judges' seat.

Xiaobao is no stranger to this Professor Li Bo, because in the final of an inter-school idiom competition before, Xiaobao had a relationship with Professor Li Bo, and the two had a good impression of each other.

"The fourth judge, Mr. Meng Man, please!" The host spoke again, and a plainly dressed female teacher walked into the judges' seat amid warm applause.

"The fifth judge, Mr. Wang Liqun, please!"

Hearing the name Wang Liqun, the audience was in an uproar, not because Mr. Wang Liqun was an unpopular person, but on the contrary, Mr. Wang Liqun was a highly respected and scholarly old professor, who was deeply respected by the majority of young people.

And Mr. Wang Liqun has also broadcast several series of programs in the column of the Hundred Forums many times, from the Qin Dynasty to the Chu and Han Dynasties, and then to the Han Dynasty and the Song Dynasty.

Two heavyweight professors, plus three popular professors, formed the luxurious jury lineup of this idiom competition, which is also the most luxurious jury lineup since the start of the idiom competition.

Besides. It is worth mentioning that the host of this idiom contest is also a highlight. The host is no longer a teacher in the school, but replaced by the famous host of CCTV Yang Fan, this handsome and humorous big boy, in fact, is also one of Ji Ran's favorite male hosts in private, at this time, I saw Yang Fan as the host. Coupled with the five strong judges, Ji Ran felt that this time it was really not in vain, and. It is already a great honor for his son to be able to show his face in such a competition, and Ji Ran is full of expectations for Xiaobao, hoping that Xiaobao can be on such a stage. Show your talent.

Professor Wang Liqun after taking his seat at the judges' seat. Looking at a little boy who is more than six years old in the field, he is very surprised, because all the junior high school students who participated in the national competition are all junior high school students, the oldest is sixteen years old this year, except for Xiaobao, the youngest is already fourteen years old this year, and Xiaobao is just six and a half years old this year, and he will only be seven years old in half a year, which makes him stand in the ring. It's particularly eye-catching.

Professor Wang Liqun looked at Xiaobao and felt a little strange. Because Professor Wang also has a little grandson at home, he is about the same age as Xiaobao this year, but his little grandson is still in preschool, and Xiaobao is already standing in the ring of the National Idiom Competition, and he is very surprised.

"Xiaomeng, is that Wang Xiaobao also a contestant?" Professor Wang pointed to Xiaobao in the ring and asked Associate Professor Meng Man beside him.

Professor Meng Man smiled and nodded, "Well, yes, Mr. Wang, he is the youngest one in this idiom competition, and he has also set a new record for the youngest age to participate in the idiom competition." ”

Professor Wang Liqun couldn't believe how much a six-and-a-half-year-old child could understand? He is surrounded by some big brothers and sisters who are more than twice his age, and he is obviously going to suffer a loss when he competes with these big children, and what makes Wang Liqun even more puzzled is how this child passed layers of selection and reached the finals?

Associate Professor Meng Man seemed to see Professor Wang Liqun's doubts, and said with a smile: "Teacher Wang, don't look at that child's young age, but his head is very smart, the last time he was in the final of the inter-school idiom competition, his performance was quite good, and he is indeed a promising good seedling." ”

Hearing Professor Meng Man praise Xiaobao like this, Professor Wang Liqun couldn't help but be impressed by Xiaobao, sure enough, it was the back waves of the Yangtze River that pushed the front waves, and one generation was stronger than the next.

To see such outstanding juniors, in fact, as an elder, Professor Wang is still very relieved, as a generation of grandmasters in the literary world, it is also a great joy in life to have successors.

After the host introduced several judges, he briefly introduced the rules of the national idiom competition, which included a total of 108 contestants from 34 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions.

Due to the large number of players in the competition, a single-round elimination system is adopted, that is, players will be eliminated in each round until the final 16 are produced.

The first thing to hold is the idiom dictation contest, the host reads out the idiom, and then the contestants write the idiom on the answer board, write the correct one to continue to answer the question, and the wrong one is eliminated directly.

"The finals of the 15th National Idiom Contest officially began, the first round of idiom dictation, the first question:

Glamorous! Please answer the question! After the host finished speaking, the contestants quickly bowed their heads and answered.

This idiom is not difficult, but if you want to write it correctly, you still need to be careful and cautious, because the four words are relatively similar, and if you write it in the wrong order, it will also be judged wrong.

Xiaobao picked up the pen, wrote it carefully, checked it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he put down the answer pen.

At the end of the 30-second answering period, the clicker will automatically determine that the correct answer will display the word "Congratulations" in green, and if the answer is incorrect, a red box will appear with the words "Unfortunately, the answer is wrong".

After answering the first question, there were still two people who didn't know why they answered incorrectly, and unfortunately left the venue.

"Question 2: Dragon Banner and Tiger Silk!"

As soon as the host's voice fell, most of the contestants were dumbfounded, and even some contestants had never heard of this idiom, what is a dragon and a tiger?

Looking at most of the contestants, this idiom is indeed difficult for middle school students, so Yang Fan went on to explain: "The dragon flag and the tiger are the flag of the general, when the war was fought in ancient times, the flag of the general will be painted with a dragon pattern, called the dragon flag, and the ornament carved with tiger stripes on the flag is called the tiger flag, so the descendants use the dragon flag and the tiger to describe the handsome flag." Please answer. ”

Hearing the host's explanation, some of the contestants suddenly came over, bowed their heads and wrote the answers on the answer board, while most of the contestants still don't know why, although some know the meaning, but after putting down the pen, they don't know how to write the words, especially the word "纛" of "Dragon Banner and Tiger Xu", how to think about it can't be written.

Xiaobao bit the tip of the pen, obviously stumped by the word "纛", and didn't write it out after thinking about it, and his little brows wrinkled a little tighter.

Is it going to be eliminated so soon?

Xiaobao was unwilling, and he had been preparing hard at home for a week, and he originally wanted to perform well in the idiom competition, but he didn't expect to encounter big trouble at the beginning, seeing that the countdown was approaching a little bit, and Xiaobao still failed to write the correct answer, and his forehead couldn't help but ooze a trace of fine sweat, and a pair of big black eyes glanced at the audience embarrassedly.

Ji Ran looked at Xiaobao frowning, and seemed to have a bad premonition, and besides, this idiom is too difficult, and it seems that Xiaobao can't answer.

The mother and son met their eyes, Ji Ran sent encouraging eyes, it was not easy for Xiaobao to get to this point, even if he was eliminated, there was nothing to be ashamed of, not to mention that he was still young, and he would have the opportunity to come here to exercise in the future, so even if he was eliminated, Ji Ran did not intend to blame Xiaobao.

Xiaobao felt that this was the longest thirty seconds in his life, and the previous game was smooth, which made Xiaobao's self-confidence unprecedentedly inflated, and suddenly suffered a setback, which made Xiaobao's self-confidence collapse instantly, and it was a little unacceptable for a while.

However, the game is so cruel that it will not give you the green light to go through the back door this time because of how good you have behaved before.

After a long wait, the thirty-second countdown finally ended, Xiaobao sighed helplessly, threw away the answer pen in his hand, and waited for the host to announce his "death sentence".

However, just when Xiaobao was about to leave the field, there was a strange thing on the field, because this idiom is too difficult, there is not a single player who writes it correctly, according to the rules of the competition, if the answer rate of a question is less than 10%, it will be declared invalid, and the correct answer rate of the idiom just now is actually 0%, this question should be invalidated, otherwise, the player will be sent off.

Seeing such a prompt, Xiaobao had a false alarm, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this idiom was not only not known by himself, but also by many people, so the host had to refresh the question and re-announced the second question: "陟punish Zang No!" The meaning of rewards and punishments, please answer the question! ”

Hearing this idiom, Xiaobao immediately thought of the description of Zhuge Liang in "Three Kingdoms", "The palace and the mansion are all one, and it is not appropriate to be similar or different." ”

It means that whether it is in the palace or in the house, it should be the same, rewards and punishments, praise and disapproval, and there should be no difference, which reflects Zhuge Liang's selfless way of governing the country.

The difficulty of this idiom is moderate, but the word "陟" is more difficult to write, and it is easy to mistakenly write the word "step" on the right side as a combination of "stop" and "less", Xiaobao has a good grasp of this word, and wrote it neatly, while wiping the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand, and clicking the confirmation key.

Soon, the green word "Congratulations" appeared on the screen, and Xiaobao breathed a sigh of relief, and the light in front of him also turned green.

Thirty seconds of answering time is coming soon, after the host announces the stop answering, everyone's clicker enters the review stage, the correct answerer, the light of the clicker is green, the wrong answer, the light is red, after the question is answered, two more players answered incorrectly, exited the answering area, the competition is extremely intense.
