Chapter Forty-Six: Struggle, Start Little by Little
I was sitting indoors last night when a lieutenant officer came in. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This lieutenant officer is about 1.75 meters tall, slightly chubby, with big eyes, double eyelids, and black stubble on his cheeks.
"Who are you looking for?" , Yang Wenbin stood up and asked politely.
The lieutenant officer stretched out his hand to him and asked, "You are Yang Wenbin, right?" I am a comrade-in-arms with Jin Hui. Worked in the 2nd Company of the 1st Battalion of Armored Infantry of our regiment.
Jin Hui and I have just finished taking this year's graduate exams. I heard him say that his next friend is coming to our army. Back in the group, I heard that there are several local college student cadres in our group, I guess there may be you, so I came over to take a look. ”
"Yes, yes, I'm Yang Wenbin." Yang Wenbin shook hands with him excitedly, invited him to sit on the bed, and chatted with him.
After some hustle, Yang Wenbin learned that he was originally a college student who enlisted in the army, from the provincial normal university, majoring in law, and was a good friend of Jin Hui.
He had just returned from his graduate school entrance examination today, and when he learned that I had come to report, he came to visit.
He was the fourth platoon commander of the second company of the first battalion, and after coming to the regiment, he first helped work in the propaganda unit of the political department of the regiment for half a year, and then took the initiative to return to the company.
Worked in the army for a year. I didn't feel satisfied, so I applied for this year's master's exam.
He said that once he embarked on the road of being admitted to graduate school, there was no turning back, and he could only move forward with a hard head.
After listening to his introduction, Yang Wenbin felt a little relieved, because by this time next year, he will be eligible to apply for graduate school.
At the same time, I am worried, there is only one year left, I have just joined the work, do I have the energy to adapt to the work and review my homework at the same time, especially my weakness ---- foreign language?
Think back to your path to graduate school. Yang Wenbin has mixed feelings.
If I hadn't been sent to university, I would now be an elementary school teacher.
He may be working as a class teacher now, or as a subject teacher in a particular subject, and he is in the company of the children every day.
Perhaps, we are also taking correspondence courses at a junior college or university. For graduate school, I don't dare to have extravagant hopes.
After arriving at the university, he heard that many of the previous alumni had been admitted or were preparing to apply for graduate school, so he also came up with the idea that he could also be admitted to graduate school after graduation.
After all, after graduating from graduate school. Not only for personal ability, knowledge, but also a great improvement. Also, it is easier to find your dream job in society.
However, there is a deep gap in front of Yang Wenbin---- that is, the learning of English.
Because there are no foreign language courses in secondary normal schools, for the general middle school students, due to the lack of foreign language learning foundation in high school, the foreign language level of the middle school teachers is very poor.
Basically, what level was in junior high school, what level was at the beginning of college.
Therefore, Bincheng Normal University, in view of the fact that the foundation of English majors for middle school teachers in all parts of the province is relatively weak, has adopted a different liberal arts English textbook for colleges and universities than that of students who graduated from ordinary high schools.
Most students who graduate from high school study general English textbooks for liberal arts and sciences in colleges and universities.
Although they are all four books, the thickness of the general English textbook for liberal arts and sciences is twice as thick as that of the liberal arts textbook.
Yang Wenbin feels that the difficulty of liberal arts textbooks is probably equivalent to the level of ordinary high school graduates.
Moreover, there is also a distinction in the awarding of degrees.
Students who are escorted by middle school teachers can not take the fourth-level examination, and the degree is also awarded.
Students who graduate from high school and are admitted to universities must pass the English test level 4 before they are allowed to confer a degree.
Faced with the gap in English, Yang Wenbin spent a lot of energy in college to make up for this gap.
He not only took the CET 3 exam, but also the CET 4 exam.
Even, in order to improve his English, he didn't even go home during the summer vacation of his sophomore year of college with Chunming, who was in the same dormitory. Squeezed into the dormitory of Bincheng Normal University, packed with luggage, and made up for more than 20 days of English.
Every day, after eating in the morning, I take the English review outline and memorize the words.
At the same time, he took an English tape player and headphones to make up for his hearing.
However, due to missing the best age to learn a language. The effect is not very ideal.
In particular, the strange thing is that when he looked at the Chinese words and couldn't remember how to say them in English, the Mongolian words jumped out of his head.
Despite the hard work, the results were not very good.
The Level 3 exam scored 55 points and passed 60 points.
In the CET-4 exam, he only scored more than 40 points, which is still a big gap with the level of 60 points.
Throughout his college years, his spare time was occupied by two types of activities: learning foreign languages, or writing propaganda slogans and publishing large propaganda boards in the Propaganda Department.
Now that I think about it, there isn't a lot of time that is really at my disposal.
In October, the fourth year of college, there was still a big gap in his foreign language level.
However, with the idea of giving it a try, she still applied for the postgraduate examination of the history of the Communist Party of China at Longjiang University.
I remember that when he was struggling with whether to apply for graduate school, he asked Mr. Guo, who taught them modern Chinese history, for advice.
Mr. Guo said a key sentence that strengthened his willingness to apply for the exam.
Teacher Guo just smiled and said: "If you apply, you may not be admitted, but if you don't apply, you will definitely not be able to pass the exam."
Due to the similarity of majors, he had a good grasp of the basic courses and professional courses of the school he applied for at that time. The papers are all full, and I feel that I can pass.
And political theory, from elementary school to university, has been studied.
It is nothing more than courses on the basic principles of Marxism, political economy, scientific socialism, world political economy and international relations, and so on.
When the paper was handed in, he felt that the answer was good.
And after answering the foreign language, he had no bottom in his heart.
Listening, there are a lot of people who don't understand too much. Just busy filling out the abcd. Cloze in the blanks, multiple-choice, multiple-choice questions, he answered okay.
However, when it comes to reading comprehension, some sentences are not understood thoroughly due to insufficient vocabulary. Some words are not yet recognized.
Therefore, when doing the following multiple-choice questions, there are not many options that can really guarantee absolute accuracy.
Due to the tight time and large amount of questions, he didn't even have time to write the last fifteen-point essay question. And he actually understood this topic.
Answering this level, the results of his postgraduate entrance examination can be imagined.
In fact, Yang Wenbin himself knew that the middle school teacher was sent to university and successfully obtained his graduation certificate and degree certificate. I did what I was supposed to do.
Applying for graduate school and being admitted to graduate school is indeed a luxury for middle school graduates.
Moreover, I haven't heard of any previous graduates who were sent by the middle school teacher, and they were admitted and admitted.
Actually, what I want to do is to be the first person to eat crabs. It's just that this crab is not cooked and the heat is not enough, so it is not eaten well.
At that time, the reason why I chose to work in the army was not only because I didn't want to make it difficult for my parents to spend the family's money on the assigned job, but also because I had to apply for graduate school wherever I went anyway.
Isn't it different to apply for the exam in the army than in the locality?
However, the ideal is plump, and the reality is skinny.
Since I arrived in the army, whether it is training as a soldier or training at a military academy.
Time is arranged, and every day is exhausting. Really, there is not a lot of time at your disposal.
When he was at the Army Academy, he also conducted research on the army's graduate enrollment policy and went to the library to consult a lot of materials.
I feel that the most realistic way for me to be in the army is to apply for graduate school in the army.
Generally speaking, graduate students in the military have applied disciplines and majors such as military command, political work, logistics management, and equipment support.
There are also majors such as military history, history of the Communist Party of China, and history of revolutionary wars that are similar to your own majors to choose from.
However, the best graduate school in the army, first, is the National Defense University. Second, it is, the Academy of Military Sciences. The National Defense University is the highest institution of learning in the whole army, and all of its students are high-ranking commanding officers of the state. The Academy of Military Science is the highest academic research institution in the whole army. The ones trained are also top military scientific research talents.
Which school to apply for? He couldn't make up his mind for a moment.
He even wrote letters to the graduate admissions departments of these colleges and universities, asking for the enrollment brochures.
He originally thought that he would be able to apply for the second year of graduate school at the end of the year he graduated.
However, after I actually arrived in the army, I learned that military academies and universities need to have more than two years of work experience to recruit graduate students.
More than two years of work experience limited his naïve and naïve ideas.
Now, after listening to Li Xiangrui's introduction, I know that I will be able to take the entrance examination for graduate school by this time next year.
He was very excited and excited, full of expectations for his dream of going to graduate school, and made a long-term plan to review and apply for the exam in a targeted manner.
He also knows that in the grassroots army, the work is complicated. It's almost impossible to imagine having a chunk of time to revise like you did when you were a student. I can only use my spare time to review. It seems that you really need to make a thorough review and exam plan!
No matter what, take advantage of your youth to work hard again, fight hard again, take out hard work and sweat, even tears and blood, and see how your potential is?
There is still a year to go, to coordinate the relationship between all aspects, to work hard, but also to find time to study, you should allocate time, grasp yourself, with action to write tomorrow's glory!
Start the countdown today.
