Chapter 252: The Tragic Exam

Mr. Han went to SH at a very young age, and he went to the United States as soon as he could remember.

I don't have much impression of SH, let alone such as a middle and old home. Except for my niece's family, I didn't know anyone. I don't have any impression of my hometown, and I don't have any feelings, and worshipping my ancestors is to fulfill my wish, because this may be the last time he returns to China.

I went to the grave and burned the paper, invited my father and fellow villagers to have a meal, left some money for my niece and granddaughter, and came back in less than two days.

The first time I went to rural China, the first time I met my relatives in China, and the first time I received so many red envelopes, Yaoyao was completely crazy and had to take care of her.

As soon as she returned to Jiangcheng, Han Jun took her to No. 4 Middle School with Zhang Lin to sign up.

"Wow, this building is taller!"

The car drove onto the main road of Zhongshan Road, and she leaned on the window of the car and happily counted the tall buildings.

On average, one skyscraper is topped out every five days in China, and there are 200 skyscrapers in the United States, which surpassed the number of skyscrapers in the United States three years ago. If you count more than 100 meters of the standard, there are more than 1,000 buildings in China, which is five or six times that of the United States. In addition, most of the high-rise buildings in the United States are concentrated in several big cities such as New York and Chicago, and even San Francisco has only a dozen or so.

Due to the relationship between architecture and living habits, there are fewer in the tenth or twenty floors.

She is like a girl in the village who entered the big city for the first time, in fact, she is indeed a little girl from the countryside of New Jersey, shocked by the reinforced concrete buildings, convinced that China is the most developed and richest country in the world.

It's good that he didn't get used to it, Han Jun glanced through the rearview mirror, held the steering wheel and said with a smile: "Baby, this building is not high, after the exam, my father will take you to see the highest, and then eat a buffet in the revolving restaurant on the top floor." ”

has to go to school again, Yaoyao is very disappointed.

Thinking that she could meet new friends and be classmates with Chinese children, she was a little excited, hugged the driver's seat and asked, "Daddy." Didn't you go to sign up, why did you want to take the exam? ”

"The school system, lesson plans and textbooks in Chinese middle schools are different from Montgomery Middle School, and the school doesn't know if you should go to the second or third grade of junior high school, so they prepare you for an exam. Find out if you should be in second or third grade. ”

Yaoyao blinked and asked again, "Is it difficult?" ”

Zhang Lin pulled her to her side and comforted her in a soft voice: "It should be a test, not an exam, there may be some difficult questions." It's okay if you're not right. ”

"What will they measure?"

"Chinese, Mathematics, English, Physics, Chemistry, Geography and Politics will not be examined. After all, you've just come from the United States and don't know much about that. ”

The little girl shook her long hair and said worriedly, "But...... But I didn't prepare anything. ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as you will answer, and you are the only one who will test. No, no one will know. ”

Thinking that George and Kelly would not be angry when they did not pass the exam in the United States, Dad and Lynn would not be angry. Thinking that after the exam, she could go to see the highest building and go to the roof to eat a delicious buffet, Yaoyao was in a better mood all of a sudden, and she straightened out the new clothes that Zhang Lin bought when she accompanied her to the mall last night, shook her legs and said, "Okay, I'll try." ”

American students, there has never been a case in the fourth middle school!

If you can accept one, you can accept the second, and recruit more than ten or twenty foreign students, and the fourth middle school can run an international class like the first middle school. And the Department of Education said hello. The Municipal Education Commission greeted, and the General Office of the Provincial Government even issued a letter about the children of overseas high-level talents attending school.

Principal Song Zhiwei attaches great importance to it, especially in the communication room with the dean of teaching.

The parents of the students are not only the deputy inspectors of the Public Security Bureau, but also the scholars of the Thousand People. The other is a well-known young female professor at HKUST.

The two school leaders were very enthusiastic, and as soon as the Audi stopped, they greeted him with a smile on their faces: "Director Han, Professor Zhang, I have been waiting for a long time." Han Yaoyao, welcome. ”

For the sake of the daughter. Director Han is willing to do anything.

The night before returning to my hometown to worship my ancestors, I specially invited the school leaders to have a meal, and they already knew each other, so they didn't need to introduce each other, and took out a bunch of documents and materials such as ID cards, real estate certificates, Yaoyao's passport, and Yaoyao's "Chinese green card" from the computer bag, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry to keep you two waiting for a long time, I have checked the documents and materials, and all the copies that should be copied are a lot." ”

"It's okay, let's go to the office first."

The principal looked very kind, the Chinese students on the playground were playing very energetically, some of the students who noticed her even ran to the edge of the playground to watch, Yaoyao waved like a crazy person and shouted: "Hi, my name is Michelle, my Chinese name is Han Yaoyao, I can also play basketball!" ”

After finishing speaking, he ran up to grab the ball, and came to a beautiful shooting action, just an action, the ball did not go in, which immediately attracted a burst of laughter. She shrugged her shoulders absently, waved her hand to her future classmate again, and ran back to her father with a smile.

Director Han smiled at Principal Song, turned his head sideways and whispered, "Baby, well done, it seems that the classmates like you very much." ”

"Daddy, I can actually do better."

"Of course, you're the best."

American children are not easy to teach, and they must be arranged to go to the best class teacher, Song Zhiwei invited the three of them into the principal's office, and turned around and said: "Director Cao, I will let Han Yaoyao take the exam first, you call Sun Lili, let her come over to read the papers, and then go through the procedures." ”

"Okay, Director Han, Professor Zhang, sit down, leave these things to me."

Director Cao patted the documents and materials in his hand and turned around to leave, how could he not care about anything as a parent of a student. It's already very special, Han Jun didn't want to make it even more special, so he immediately got up and said, "Principal Song, we can't always follow Yaoyao, you make the rolls for her, and we'll go through the formalities." ”

"It's okay, but there are a lot of rolls, and it may take a while here."

"It's okay, we can wait outside."

Seeing a female teacher in her thirties, the two of them knew that she was their daughter's future homeroom teacher, so they asked for some more before going through the formalities.

Taking five exams at a time is definitely not a lot of pressure for children. As soon as the formalities were completed, Director Han was really a little uneasy, and asked reluctantly: "Wife, do you say that Yaoyao can do well in the exam?" ”

Zhang Lin leaned on the escalator and said with a smile: "Junior high school education in the United States is not as difficult as in China, and the teaching materials are different. ”

Director Han nodded slightly, and said to himself: "It is precisely because of the relatively solid secondary education in China that I let her go to a public middle school." If she can keep up, if she can be admitted to high school smoothly, and if she can graduate by the way, then she will have no problem going to Harvard in the future. ”

"Hope that the girl will become a phoenix?"

"Don't you want to?"

"Does this need to be asked?"

Zhang Lin snuggled up to him and said with a smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you can't keep up, I can teach when I go home." And not being able to keep up is a kind of pressure, which will prompt her to study, otherwise it will definitely be embarrassing to count down in the total exam. ”

It's not easy for her to do this part, thinking that Zhang's father and Zhang's mother not only have no opinions, but treat Yaoyao as their own granddaughter, Han Jun was very moved, and leaned into her ear and said, "Wife, it's hard for you." When Yaoyao really settles down and really wants to get used to life in China, we will get married. And then give birth to another one, and the two children are not alone. ”

The effort was finally rewarded, Zhang Lin felt sweet in her heart, hugged her arms and smiled: "I don't want it, at least I don't want it now." ”

"No problem, you can ask for it when you want, in case you accidentally have it, then you have to."

Zhang Linqiao's face turned red and said angrily: "Don't say it, this is the school." ”

"Understood, I'll talk about it later."

The baby daughter's exam can be called a god speed, and the five exams came out in more than an hour, looking at her frustrated face, I knew that I didn't do well in the exam.

"Daddy, are you sure they're exams?" Yaoyao's sincere questioning is like the child in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "The Emperor's New Clothes" saying "The emperor has no clothes".

"Difficult questions?"

"It's not that it's difficult, it's that I don't know what they want to take."

"Don't worry, it's a placement test, you stay with Lin for a while, I'll go in and have a look."

Walking into the office, the principal, the director of teaching, and the head teacher, Mr. Sun, looked at each other at the stack of papers, not knowing which class to assign the daughter of the Han family to.

Han Jun coughed dryly twice, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Three, the cultural differences between China and the United States are so big, it's normal for Yaoyao to not do well in the exam." Besides, strictly speaking, she can only be counted as borrowing, not in the admission rate, as long as she can be divided into classes, as long as she can go to school. ”

"Director Han, that's the case."

Principal Song put down the paper and said with a wry smile: "This difference is not one or two points, the third junior high school will definitely not be able to keep up, and the second junior high school is also very reluctant." If you don't have a problem, we want to put her in the first year of junior high school. It was easy for her to learn, and it was easy for us to teach. ”

Maybe she inherited more genes from her mother, Yaoyao grew up very fast and developed very early, the whole big girl, the junior high school students I saw just now looked very small and naΓ―ve compared to her, let her mix with a group of smaller children, she will definitely be laughed at.

Han Jun scratched his head and said in a low voice, "I'll take a look at the scroll first." ”

The test paper with a full score of 100 points is 9 points for Chinese, 17 points for mathematics, 19 points for physics, and 6 points for chemistry. The most incredible thing is that a child who grew up in the United States actually failed English.

Director Han simply sat down and studied the exam questions one by one, and found that these questions were simply made up out of nothing, made up, and inexplicable...... At the same time, he pays great attention to grammar and pursues the precision of sentences. Don't say that Yaoyao is not good in the exam, even he may not be able to pass.

He really wanted to turn around and leave, but he didn't want Yaoyao to grow up in the environment of an international school, so he gritted his teeth, put down the roll and got up and said, "Principal Song, Director Cao, Teacher Sun, let's go to the second year of junior high school, we are mentally prepared not to keep up." You teach at school, we teach at home, she is actually very smart, but she is not used to it when she first comes to China. With our joint efforts, I believe we will soon be able to keep up.
