Chapter Twenty-Three: Grades Are Like a Roller Coaster

"Mu Yan, get up quickly, it's five o'clock." On Sunday morning, Yeon's mother shouted outside the door.

"It's still early at five o'clock."

"Your dad can't take you to school today, so you can take the bus."

Mu Yan quickly sat up, and blamed in her heart: "Didn't Dad give it to me yesterday?" Why did you change your mind today, you must know that you can't catch up with the bus anyway. ”

When Mu Yan got up, she found that her father was still lying on the bed, and she understood a little in her heart, and hurriedly asked her mother: "Is it that Dad's back disease has been committed again?" ”

"Hmm." Mother Yan whispered in agreement.

When Mu Yan left the house, she found that the gardenias in the house had bloomed, and the fragrance was overflowing

Yan's mother picked a few gardenias that were not yet fully bloomed and gave them to Mu Yan: "Yanyan, you bring these gardenias, they are not fully bloomed yet, and they will bloom when they reach school." ”

Mu Yan hurriedly ran to the bus station, and it was not yet bright at this time. Mu Yan comforted herself: "Mu Yan, you won't be late." It's better to memorize English first, there is an exam today, wait while watching, time flies faster. ”

As she spoke, Mu Yan took out her English book, found a corner, and recited it silently.

The sky gradually brightened, and Mu Yan no longer prayed to take the bus at this time, she only prayed to be able to meet an acquaintance's car and take her a while. She walked to the side of the road, put the book in her hand, and looked at the crowd with her eyes, hoping for a miracle.

Mu Yan became more anxious the more she watched, and the more she watched, the more sad she became. After waiting for a while, there were several people who were connected with the same illness around her, and the two people didn't seem to have the slightest sense of tension, and kept talking and laughing there.

If it was in normal times, Mu Yan would definitely be very happy to chat with them. But even if someone took the initiative to talk to her today, she was not in the mood.

Gradually, Mu Yan saw that there were waiting students around her, and although some came late, they could always meet acquaintances, and they left before her.

Gradually, only Mu Yan and the two girls around her were left, a walk-behind tractor drove this way, and was stopped by the two girls, Mu Yan thought: I haven't been on this kind of bouncing car for several years, I have to sit on it today, and she also sat on it.

Sitting on a hand-held bouncing bike naturally does not have the feeling of speeding by on a motorcycle, nor does it have the comfort of sitting behind my father's motorcycle.

In the trolley sat an old grandmother and a young grandson who could just walk, and the two girls were coaxing the child to play.

Mu Yan felt the cold air of the morning coming, she took out the jacket from her schoolbag, and the moment she added clothes, she saw that the sun had covered everything, she thought of the exam, thought of her father's waist, and a burst of sour water passed through the internal organs.

"What time is it? What time is it? Mu Yan's thoughts were interrupted by a question.

"Oh, I forgot my watch in the classroom, it looks like we're going to be late." Mu Yan knew that the two girls must also be flustered.

But the girl said, "Forget about being late, I don't have to take the exam today." ”

Mu Yan choked on a sentence and didn't say a word for a long time.

While speaking, a car drove towards this side from a distance, Mu Yan was a little hesitant at this time, should she stop this car?

"If you're afraid you're late, stop that car." The old grandmother said with a smile.

Mu Yan was waiting for the opinions of the other two girls at this time.

"Forget it, who called the car late, making people wait in a hurry."

Mu Yan's idea of riding in a car was broken, and the moment the car passed by Mu Yan, her heart hurt a little, and she watched the car until it disappeared at the end of the vast.

Mu Yan looked at the gardenia in her hand, it was not yet fully opened, at first she was going to give the flowers to the people she met on the road today, it might be Zhang Zijing, it might be Zhu Zilong, she didn't expect that the first thing she would meet would be a kind-hearted person she didn't know.

She said to the child, "Give it to you to play with." Who knows, as soon as the child received it, he was about to tear off the petals, but fortunately, the grandmother brought the flowers in time.

Mu Yan thought: Flowers should also be given to people who understand flowers!

I don't know when the car stopped, Mu Yan jumped out of the car and said to the driver, "Uncle, thank you." ”

"No, you don't."

Mu Yan carried her schoolbag and quickly ran towards the school, every step she stepped on was pinned on her deep prayer: God, don't let me be late, this is the last test before the high school entrance examination, you must take the test, you must succeed, this is the last chance, Mu Yan, you must succeed.

Mu Yan turned a corner, and then another corner, and everything was left behind.

The moment Mu Yan stepped into the school gate, she found that the campus was empty, she held her breath and climbed up the stairs with her hands, at this time the teaching building was very quiet, and when Mu Yan stepped on the fourth floor for the last time, the bell rang!

Mu Yan smiled with relief, she looked at the flowers in her hand, which were already in bloom at this time, and in the corridor, the students were walking towards the examination room......

"Mu Yan, you're finally here."

"Mu Yan, you're here." The classmates asked Mu Yan with concern.

Mu Yan was already embarrassed at the moment, and suddenly, her eyes met Zhu Zilong's, as if the same gaze was revealed in those eyes, although she didn't know what his gaze was conveying to her.

The day's exam, in the thinking of the students, gradually passed.

"Mu Yan, you came in time, Teacher Luo said that you didn't come, I thought you really had something." After the exam, Zhang Zijing, who was walking on campus, said to Mu Yan.

"How could Mr. Luo say that I won't come? I didn't ask him for leave. Mu Yan was a little puzzled.

"Just before the exam, when Teacher Luo counted the number of people, five classmates didn't come, but they forgot to count you, so I mentioned you to Teacher Luo, and he said you weren't coming?"

"And who hasn't come?"

"And Liao Tian, and Wu Xiong......"

"Why didn't Liao Tiantian come?"

"He's just as late as you are."

————————

After the evening self-study, the sky was dark and hollow, and the stars didn't know when they hid in the clouds, and the campus was quiet, Mu Yan walked alone in the campus, humming a little song in her mouth.

"Are you Mu Yan? The sound passed through the night and reached Mu Yan's ears. ”

Mu Yan, hearing a familiar and kind voice, said excitedly, "Teacher Bai is me." ”

"Mu Yan, you did a good job in the English test this time, did you copy it?" Teacher Bai joked.

"Teacher, I never copy it."

Mu Yan then asked, "How much did I score in this English test?" ”

"This time the test is okay."

"How many points?" Mu Yan felt that talking to Teacher Bai was like squeezing toothpaste.

“115。”

Mu Yan was a little disappointed when she heard the score, although the full score was 120 points. However, Mu Yan's goal is 118 to 120, which is called okay! Mu Yan was a little disappointed.

I thought: Mr. Bai, you underestimate me too much, I thought I got a perfect score in the exam!

"What is the highest grade in school?" Mu Yan asked Teacher Bai.

"I don't know yet, and I don't know if there are 117 or 118 in other classes, how did you get the test? Zhang Zijing's cloze was almost wiped out, you got all right, recruited from the truth, have you ever done it? ”

Mu Yan screamed wronged in her heart, but she said in her mouth: "This topic is more in line with my taste, as for Zhang Zijing's mistake, I don't know very well, maybe this topic is not in line with her taste."

Actually, I hate to do that kind of logical, technical cloze in the blanks, and if I encounter something like that in the high school entrance examination, I will definitely be finished. Cloze in the blanks like stories is easy for me. ”

Although Mu Yan was talking to the teacher, she was polite in addition to being naughty and close.

Teacher Bai continued: "Mu Yan, your grades are very unstable, you should pay attention in the future." ”

"Teacher, I know, it's time for me to go back to the dormitory."

"There you go!"

In just a few words, he left in a hurry, and he left in a hurry, but in the heart of Mu Yan, a student, he respected Teacher Bai more and more.

Back in the dormitory, the sisters all surrounded Mu Yan and asked, after all, it was the only way for the students to go back to the dormitory, and everyone saw Teacher Bai talking to Mu Yan alone.

The next day, Mr. Bai began to distribute test papers, Zhu Zilong scored 105 points, Shen Lin scored 110 points, Chen Chen scored 112 points, Zhang Zijing scored 89 points, Liu Can scored 96 points, Liao Tian scored 100 points, Wu Xiong scored 103 points, and Mu Yan scored 115 points.

After handing out the test papers, Mr. Bai continued: "I don't know what's going on, when I have high expectations for you, you always let me down, and when I lose confidence in you, you can get amazing results.

I don't know how to teach you, but through recent observations, I have found that all of you are improving, some are more turbulent, some are smaller, and if there is progress, it is good.

There are a few classmates whose grades fluctuate very much, just like Mu Yan's, who scored 110 points for the first time and 115 points for the last time, but the two scores in the middle were separated by 108,000 miles.

However, I summarized the results of the last four exams, and the most ideal one was Mu Yan's score, her average score for the four exams was 105 points, and the predetermined goal was 105. ”

Mu Yan glanced at Teacher Bai and thought: What is this teacher talking nonsense, my scheduled score is at least 110 points!

But at this time, Mu Yan didn't want to argue about anything, so she told Teacher Bai to go by herself.

"Zhu Zilong's scheduled score is 106 points, and the average score of the four times is about 103 points, Shen Lin's score is 110 points, and the average score of the four times is 108 points, I won't say much about the rest, I just hope that when you take the high school entrance examination, you can make persistent efforts and succeed in one fell swoop."

After that, leave time for the students to reflect on themselves. He knows that sometimes it is more effective for students to understand it on their own than for him to talk about it thousands of times.

After all, they are already children who have their own minds and can distinguish the pros and cons of things. Or give the initiative to themselves, after all, everyone is responsible for their own future! It's not up to others to bear the burden!
