Chapter XII

After New Year's Day, the final exams are just around the corner.

The exams in style, pronunciation, aesthetics, and calligraphy began on the third day after New Year's Day.

The items of the physical education examination are: 1500-meter run for boys, 800-meter run for girls, shot put for boys and girls, push-ups for boys, and sit-ups for girls. These three items are weaknesses for Zhao Hongyi, and in the end, the push-ups barely reached the standard, and the other two were not half a star away from the standard line, and they must fail, and they will have to take the make-up exam next year.

The music is sight-singing, and Zhao Hongyi easily passed the test and scored 85 points.

The art exam is a still life photo, and Zhao Hongyi drew a portrait of David, and he scored 89 points.

The calligraphy test is to buy red paper in advance and cut it into couplets, and write a couplet on the spot in the calligraphy class. Zhao Hongyi's father writes well, Zhao Hongyi has a bit of true biography since he was a child, in fact, he started writing couplets as early as the second year of junior high school, and then after this period of hard work, he has initially formed his own font style, which is not a problem at all.

He practiced Yan Ti. Yan Ti character was created by Yan Zhenqing, a calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, and its characteristics are that the structure is square and dense, the strokes are horizontal and vertical, the pen is strong, upright, open and vigorous. Yan Ti and Liu Ti are collectively called "Yan Liu", and there is a saying of "Yan Muscle and Willow Bone". The structural characteristics of Yanti characters can be summarized in four words: round, qi, even, and sparse. Zhao Hongyi likes the natural magnificence and majestic atmosphere of Yan Ti characters, and has used the vacation time to practice at home since junior high school. The test score was naturally good, with a score of 95.

The next step is to face the other UEC subjects, which are scheduled to be held on January 8, 9 and 10. Since January 5th, the school will no longer hold classes in a centralized manner, leaving everyone with plenty of free time to review, you can go to the classroom, in the dormitory, or in any corner of the campus, and even you can go to the hillside outside the school to bask in the sun while reviewing your homework.

These three days are the most leisurely and happy days for everyone. There is no need to go to the morning exercise, no need to squeeze time, it is all conscious, it is completely "my time, my territory, I am in charge." After breakfast, Zhao Hongyi, Wang Zhen, and Meng Fei took the political books, biology books, and anthology books and set off. To save time, they did not pass through the school gates, but climbed over the northeast wall of the school like senior students. The edge of the wall has long been polished by the hands and feet of the students who have climbed over the wall, and this section of the wall has been built so strong that it would have collapsed long ago. After climbing over the fence, there is a small ditch leading to the high slope of the northeast, and the ditch has already been crowded with people, up and down, so lively. Zhao Hongyi and the three had never been here before, and with a little curiosity, they trotted all the way to the top of the hillside.

It has reached the wax moon, and some of the land has not planted crops, it is reserved for early corn fields, and the wheat seedlings sown on some plots are already a spring color, and they are full of vitality. Most of us are children of peasant families, and we will never go to the wheat fields to step on and play, and these open spaces reserved for planting early corn have become a paradise for everyone to play. In fact, most of the students are doing it with books, and now it is estimated that the review is almost the same, and now they are just looking up the mountain to be fresh and lively. Climb the loess slope, and the Liangzhou City in the south is in full view. It is said that when the People's Liberation Army liberated Liangzhou City, the national army once arranged artillery positions here to resist stubbornly, and it seems that the military value is not small.

Zhao Hongyi and the three of them hugged a bundle of corn stalks and sat down on a flat ground, took out their textbooks and concentrated on memorizing. The winter sun comes out late, but the work ends early. At this time, the sun is lazily emerging from the clouds, shining on the body, so comfortable. The three of them started by reading their own books, and after an hour, they began to ask each other questions, which was very effective. Zhao Hongyi's memory is amazing, and he not only knows the answers, but also knows how many pages the knowledge points are in the textbook. This kind of kung fu really made Wang Zhen and Meng Fei a little staggered!

In fact, this is a special memory talent of Zhao Hongyi. He seems to have had this ability to remember since elementary school. Many years later, when Zhao Hongyi watched a TV show about fast memory, he was surprised to find that his memory method was strikingly similar to the method introduced by experts on TV. That is, he is very good at picture memory, he often memorizes the content of the entire page of the book at a glance, so the brain will leave the impression of how many pages and lines of this knowledge point is.

In the past, the test was mostly about memory, so whoever has a good memory will definitely get a high score. This is also the direction that the proposer has been deliberately changing. Try to minimize rote memorization and have more flexible questions and fewer questions with standard answers. This is a later story, anyway, at that time, for the exam, that was Zhao Hongyi's strength. He is not afraid of exams, he even likes exams very much, and he wants to use the test results to brush up his presence.

How could there be so much knowledge to memorize, and after an hour and a half, the three of them simply put away the books and set up a dragon gate array. Talking about the harvest and insights of this semester, and talking about the gossip in the class and school, the eyebrows are dancing. In fact, when it comes to revision efficiency, it is the highest in the classroom, and running up the hill is purely for fun! It's almost 12 o'clock, it's time for lunch! Hurriedly put the corn stalks back to the family and ran back to school.

The exam officially started on January 8, and the first session was anthology and writing, and in less than 40 minutes, Zhao Hongyi finished the paper. According to the requirements of the school, no hour is not allowed to hand in the papers, and the head teacher, Mr. Wang, has made a class rule that the entire time must be answered, and the final whistle of the exam can only be handed in. I checked it three or four times from start to finish, and there didn't seem to be any problems anymore. Unable to hand in the papers, Zhao Hongyi had plenty of time to watch the panoramas of the other students in the class when they answered the papers. I saw that some students looked natural and full of confidence, some students scratched their ears and cheeks, looked left and right, and some students had already finished it like him, and they were bored there, so they were not lonely.

Look at the invigilator teacher who is uniformly arranged by the whole school (the teacher in this class should be avoided), his eyes are stern, not angry and arrogant, and he seems to be staring at every candidate. They didn't dare to be sloppy, during the midterm exam, because an art teacher named Zhang Qiang was not serious in the invigilation of the first class of the 90th grade, the students took the opportunity to take out the textbook and copy it, but they were discovered by the director of academic affairs, and tore the cheating student's papers to shreds on the spot, and scolded Zhang Qiang in front of the students in the whole examination room, so that he could not get off the stage.

In fact, after many exams, students of all grades have a very thorough understanding of the temper and temperament of each invigilator, such as who can be a little sloppy when invigilating, who can bring a little entrainment when invigilating, and who must be well-behaved when invigilating, for example, Chen Jian'an, who is known as the "four killers" of the second division of Liangzhou invigilator, and other four teachers, it is best not to move your careful thinking, if there is a slight misconduct, there is no warning, and you can directly grab the paper and make a record - 0 points. This kind of almost strict examination style and discipline makes all students in awe of the final exam and dare not mess around. Of course, this also ensures the excellent quality of the graduates of Liangzhou Second Normal School.

After the expansion of the university's enrollment in 1998, Zhao Hongyi, who had been working for several years, saw that when some college students graduated from the university, they were indignant, thinking about how to manage it. Put it in our middle teacher era, you try, after a few exams, you will already be rolled!

After the three-day exam, whether it is basic knowledge of Chinese, algebra, geometry, physics, chemistry, biology, and politics, Zhao Hongyi completed it easily. For him, the exam is so simple.

In less than a day, all the results were revealed. In fact, many subjects are read while taking the exam, because the school must hurry to send the result notice to the students before everyone leaves the school during the winter vacation, and the students who make up the exam must be fully prepared during the winter vacation to prepare for the make-up exam at the beginning of the semester. Zhao Hongyi almost achieved a Grand Slam. Except for the third place in chemistry and the second place in anthology, all other subjects were the first, and algebra, geometry and biology also scored full marks. As the saying goes, "no one asks after studying hard for half a year, and once it is famous at all levels". The fifth class of the ninth grade came out with the news of a "god test", and it went out in the whole school.

It's a pity that Zhao Hongyi failed to be rated as a top three student this semester because he failed in sports. once had the experience of sports make-up examination, which made Zhao Hongyi difficult to let go of many years later, he thought that it was the shame of his middle school teacher days.

On January 12th, the winter vacation officially began, and everyone put on a simple bag and embarked on the road home, which is about to be celebrated! The students shook hands and said goodbye, and see you next year.
