Limu, who didn't know that he had been pitted, was still entangled, secretly annoyed that he didn't know the essentials in front of the master of Chinese painting. One wrong step, one wrong step, and all the wrong ones will lose. Faced with almost unsolvable questions and answers......

-- There is only one way to solve the problem.

That is to show your ability in front of Hua Lao!

-- Although he is not specialized in his work, he is not unproficient.

Although he had touched on all kinds of side doors in his previous life, his knowledge could only be said to be mottled and complex, but not proficient. But now with the "Ultimate Painter" system in hand, there is a super dull hair hidden under the cold-proof earmuffs. Not to mention in all walks of life, at least in painting and mathematics.

――I want to show enough ability, he gives me an hour, and I will finish the exam paper in an hour and rush back!

With this in mind, Riki took the bus to the International High School at 4:00 p.m. sharp.

The registration is the name of the Nanhua No. 16 Middle School Assistant, the first American Mathematics Competition participants are not many, at least Nanhua only has two participants, so students can only come to Yanjing to participate in the competition by themselves.

Most of the contestants in the examination room are from Yanjing City, and all they need to pay is the registration fee. The number of participants was not informed by the team leader, so they didn't know the exact number. I only know that there are about two or three hundred people in the middle school room, and the list of examination rooms is posted on the bulletin board of the teaching building.

In fact, Riki had already confirmed his classroom on the phone once in advance, and he secretly pulled Isha before the exam and ordered: "I will finish the test paper as quickly as possible, and you will immediately call a taxi for me 5 minutes after the exam bell rings, and then you continue to wait here for Muzi to go back." ”

"Don't be afraid, she, two hours."

#不要紧哦, Muzi was able to hide for two hours under my tracking, and he hid in Changchun Park and got into tatters before we caught him.

#无论如何, just do what you are told.

#好的, understood.

The two of them used to their surnames and made eye contact with each other. Limu glanced at the two sons of the capital, as if he was worried that they would do something cheating on Muzi. Perverted games such as "Depth Charge", "Guess the Fruit" and "Russian Roulette" were conceived by these rich and playful people.

…… It's a game that this generation has been playing since they grew up.

"Woo hoo hu ~ so touched, young man, are you caring about me?" Muzi hugged him from behind, scrubbed his hair with a round chin, and looked grateful, "Don't worry, [***] medicine, fei, cocaine, these things Mei Niang knew at a glance that Mei Niang wanted to leave all her heart to Limu." ”

"Bastard, run over and eavesdrop again, who wants you to stay! Well, it seems that I'm too careful, you just have this cognition yourself. Riki thought she hadn't noticed the squinting eyes of the three of them in the morning.

After a while, the preparatory bell of the examination room arrived as scheduled, and all the candidates who were stranded in the examination room walked into the classroom. The students who came to participate in the competition were no longer obedient elementary school students, and even though the teacher who organized the examination room said that they should put their schoolbags next to the podium during the exam, many students still brought their schoolbags to their seats. Many junior high and high school students knew each other's classmates, and they also signed up together, and their wanton speech sounded like noise in the vegetable market.

"Boy, come on!" Muzi, who was placed in the same examination room, was also in the ranks of releasing noise.

"No, even elementary school students are coming?"

"The American math contest is also too casual. Sure enough, it's 'no lower limit'. ”

"Can he read English? Can you read the question? ”

As soon as you enter the examination room, the pear wood like a small bean becomes the most eye-catching object, and the little fat chicken will naturally stand out among the tall cranes. Although there is some bias in their words, one thing is quite right.

The first hurdle to stop Chinese students from participating in the American math competition is nothing else, it is English! If you want to participate in the American Invitational, you must first learn to read English questions, and the pre-match AMC is also a global synchronous English test.

However, the English test questions cannot stop the Chinese from winning the award.

I remember watching an episode of the "Star of Hope" English style contest held by Haoji Star Plus Treasure - "Iamgoingtoharvard!", in which a 9-year-old girl can stand on the stage and talk with foreigners, and finally win the championship of the primary school group and go to Harvard University. 400,000 students participated in the competition! The winners of each category will be able to speak at Harvard University on behalf of Chinese youth.

"This year's middle school group Olympiad is too strong, and I almost won the first prize, and the competition is relatively competitive."

"Silly, don't look at our country, there are only one examination room, there are hundreds in the United States, and the number of people in all countries combined exceeds 400,000."

"Shhhh

The figure of the teacher holding the test paper during the exam is undoubtedly the most powerful shot in the arm for students. Send the test papers early and send the test papers later; One more copy of the test paper, one minute less to write the test paper, and the time is all in the hands of the invigilator. The invigilator glanced at the students present: If the teacher is not quiet, the teacher will not hand out the test papers.

Flustered, disorganized, and after taking out the necessary pencils, the students who kept their bags threw them on the table next to the lectern......

The noise gradually died down, and the examination room was silent.

There are two invigilators, unfortunately they are not foreigners, and they are all members of the Beijing Olympiad Organizing Committee. The two stood together on the podium and patrolled the classroom to see if any students were absent, and after a pause in their gaze on the youngest Riki, they announced:

"The exam is from 16:30 to 17:45, the exam time is 75 minutes, a total of 25 questions, the questions may be more than the Olympiad, please answer the questions carefully, and the answers should be filled in with a 2B pencil on the answer sheet......"

After announcing the precautions, the test papers were quickly handed out. A student immediately frowned bitterly after getting the test paper, and raised his hand to the teacher hesitantly and asked, "Why is the test paper in English?"

It seems that this student did not do any homework and rushed to participate in the competition. She felt the smiling glances from the other students, and blushed when she was told by the invigilator that it was originally an English question.

Foreign exams are naturally foreign languages, and if you win the exam, you have to go abroad. Even if you can help translate the test papers into Chinese in China, can you still ask others to translate them into Chinese when you go abroad?

Not only the text is different, but even the question types are different. Chinese AMO is 12 fill-in-the-blank questions, and the questions are difficult, and students may not even get a single point; The American AMC is 25 multiple-choice questions, and the questions are easier to fill in the blanks than 12 questions, even if students write the test paper with their eyes closed, they can probably get a score of 150*1/5 according to probability theory. The former can hit the student's positive surname to a deep point, and the United States, which lacks human feelings, seems to understand human feelings better.

Riki was not in the mood to observe the other students, he wanted to rush back to the courtyard as quickly as possible, and show Hua Qishan the ability to "exam-draw"! Immediately after getting the exam paper, the mental arithmetic questions were silently calculated.

【a.23b.55c.99d.111e.671】

The first question was unconventional, and in 2000, the number 2001 was examined. Translation? No, you don't! In fact, people who can't understand the question only need to capture one condition and one question. The condition is i*m*o=2001, and the problem is [thelargest

possiblevalue] asks what is the maximum value of i+m+o.

――thesumisthehighestiftwofactorsarethelowest，so……

Riki didn't even bother to translate, so he simply thought directly in English. In fact, in the long-term conversation with Elisabel, he practiced to the stage of using his brain to translate directly into language, which is no different from talking in his native language, and only occasionally when he is nervous, he will subconsciously filter into Chinese in his head.

thesumisthehighestiftwofactorsare

thelowest，so……

As a rule of thumb, the sum of the 3 numbers reaches the maximum when the 2 factors are at a minimum.

Let i and m be "1" and "2", respectively. However, since "2001" is an odd number, the factor "2" is discarded and can only be changed to "3".

From 2001/3, the third factor o is equal to the number "667", so i+m+o=1+3+667=671 (imo international mathematics Laolinpik abbreviation), the answer is [e].

Checking...... There is no need to check, there are only five fixed answers, and the largest number given is only 667.

The second question is a pure number question. 2000 times 2000 to the 2000th power, as long as the students who are sincere to participate in the math competition should be able to calculate, there is no doubt that the number is 2000 to the 2001st power. The answer is [a]

……

Discard checks.

Limu solves a problem in an average of 10 seconds, and the problem of the AMC senior 1st year group is simple.

250 seconds - about five minutes.

He had counted all 25 questions on the test paper, and by the time the answer sheet was handed out, he had already prepared the answer.

……

When the invigilator said that he was allowed to do the question, he immediately buried himself in filling out the answer sheet like a machine, blacking out an answer almost every two seconds.

Riki raised her hand at the table and beckoned to the invigilator.

"Teacher-can I hand in the exam papers now? You won't be deducted points or disqualified......"
