After the last little turmoil in the notebook, time seems to pass faster and faster, just like the last part of the hourglass, although the recorded time is the same, but it just feels faster than other times.

Wen Li has never scored 80 points in the math test, and he sees that the placement test is coming soon.

I feel that I am also very serious about doing the exercises, and I understand the principles about the same, but every time I reflect it on the paper, I feel like I am standing still, and there is no progress at all.

Wen Li was also a little deflated, and he couldn't see the effect at all after holding on for so long, which was inevitably sad. After lying on his stomach on the table for a while, he saw a hand dangling in front of his eyes.

"What do you think? Aren't you supposed to be writing an exercise book or something? He Chunxiao saw that Wen Li's mood was not quite right, and asked with concern.

"If you don't write it, it's useless to write so much, and you can't even score 80 points."

"It's more than a month before the end of the term, won't you give up now?"

"What can I do then?" Wen Li lay on the table and did not move.

"Ask me, I didn't give up on you, how can you give up first?" Shen Yi joined the conversation.

"Harm! Complaining is complaining, and it's not really just giving up. ”

This is Wen Li's true thoughts, after all, he has already promised Sister Li that she will take the final exam for eighty points, and if she can't speak, it won't count!

"That's good, if you give up on your own, then I don't know what to do." Shen Yi said.

"Okay, after charging, I'm 'Hu Hansan' back to learn math." Wen Li took out the workbook and prepared to start writing.

"Actually, you can think differently and take out the papers you have done to see which ones you can do, whether there are any that you could have done but did wrong, and if there are those that you can't, you can do them with a little effort. I think it's better to practice in a targeted way. Shen Yi said sincerely.

"What you say makes sense, Xueba deserves to be a Xueba!" After listening to what Shen Yi said, Wen Li Daigo was empowered.

I took out the math papers I sorted out and compared them, and found that there were really a lot of them that I would do, but because of careless miscalculations, there were many that I wouldn't be able to, but I might use a little dim sum. Seeing this, Wen Li seemed to see hope again, these points can add up to eighty points, and it would be even better if the multiple-choice questions could be corrected by a few more. It's fun to think about!

After lunch, Wen Li used to take He Chunxiao to go to the school's small supermarket together, sometimes to buy stationery, and more to buy food in the afternoon between classes.

"Chunxiao, I haven't seen this little snack, take one and take one." As he spoke, Wen Li took a lot of snacks in his hand.

"Didn't you say buy duct tape?"

"I took it, isn't it by the way, I don't have to come back in the afternoon."

He Chunxiao knows that buying tape is the way, and buying snacks is the main thing, and she knows Wen Li's routines clearly.

"You take less, Sister Li doesn't like the smell of snacks in the class." He Chunxiao reminded.

"We don't have her class this afternoon." Wen Li smiled triumphantly.

"Then do you guarantee that she won't show up in the class?" He Chunxiao smirked.

Wen Li put down the packet of potato chips he picked up, and put the spicy strips back in their place by the way, leaving only a box of yogurt and a piece of chocolate.

While waiting to check out, Wen Li saw the supermarket clerk bring a fake Christmas tree.

"Christmas is coming?" Wen Li said excitedly.

"Tomorrow is Christmas Eve." He Chunxiao replied calmly.

"Then you can eat apples!"

"Hmmm... Isn't it to give apples!? He Chunxiao was very puzzled by Wen Li's brain circuit.

"Aren't apples just for eating?"

"What did you say... No problem. He Chunxiao couldn't refute.

On the morning of Christmas Eve, Wen Li carried two apples and prepared to give them to Shen Yi and He Chunxiao. Because it is taken directly from home, there is no good-looking packaging. However, Wen Li thinks that the final result is to eat, so the packaging should not be important.

As soon as I approached the school, I saw the bookstore at the entrance of the school, the bubble tea shop, and the apples and beautiful packaging bags were placed on the side of the road, and many students were buying.

"Is it Christmas Eve? The apples are all laid out. Jiang Yu asked.

"yes, don't you know?" Wen Li asked in surprise.

"I'm not you, and I can remember more than a mathematical formula." Jiang Yu retorted.

"You don't know, don't let people say it!"

"Okay, okay, it's all time at school, you two can stop!" Zhu Ying couldn't help but interrupt.

"Remember to eat apples at night, little piggy." Wen Li reminded.

"I must be sure, I must go to your house to eat at night, we are leaving, see you after school." After Zhu Ying finished talking to Wen Li, she and Jiang Yu walked to the teaching building of the experimental class.

"It's just an apple, today's apple will not be better than yesterday's day, I really don't know what the little trash thinks." Jiang Yu complained.

"Wen Li's thoughts are something that you can speculate about, young man, you still know too little!" Zhu Ying patted Jiang Yu's shoulder, and Yun teased her bangs, looking like a second-year teenager.

"You and her are not far behind." Jiang Yu took Zhu Ying's hand away and walked directly to the class.

As soon as Wen Li arrived at the class, he took out the apples in his schoolbag.

"Chunxiao, give you apples, today is Christmas Eve, remember to eat it."

Seeing that Shen Yi hadn't come yet, Wen Li directly put the apple in the drawer of his desk.

"Isn't it still evening, why do you deliver apples early in the morning?" He Chunxiao said happily.

"I can't see you when I get home from school at night, so I can't give it now."

"Okay, since you give it to me now, then I'll give you what I sent you now, na!"

He Chunxiao took out an apple wrapped in colored paper from the drawer and handed it to Wen Li.

"Wow, at the same table, your apple is so beautiful, I can't bear to open my mouth."

"Believe you, a ghost, it won't survive tonight."

"Hee-hee!"

As he was talking, Shen Yi also came.

"What are you talking about, what can't you survive tonight?"

"Today is Christmas Eve, and the apple I gave Wen Li won't survive tonight!" He Chunxiao explained.

"Christmas Eve? Oh my God, I don't know," Shen Yi looked surprised.

"It's okay, I'll put your apples in your drawer, and you'll still have apples to eat." Wen Li comforted.

"I'll give it to you, too!" He Chunxiao took out the apples that he had originally planned to give to Shen Yi on the way back from school today.

"Chunxiao, you are eccentric, his apples are better than mine!" Looking at the apples that looked better than his own packaging, Wen Li couldn't help but complain.

"It's all the same!"

"I really don't remember that today is Christmas Eve, I said why are so many people buying fruit at the school gate today!" Shen Yi explained.

"It's okay, it's just an apple, you can eat it or not." He Chunxiao couldn't bear to see Shen Yi's self-reproachful look, so he played a round for him, although he really wanted to receive the apple from Shen Yi.

"That's it, how can Xueba worry about these 'mortal' things!" Wen Li also helped to solve the siege.

"It's too late to buy it now, I'll give you a gift tomorrow Christmas!" Shin Yi said apologetically.

"No, no, I have to go to school tomorrow!" He Chunxiao hurriedly refused.

"Then you just have to wait, I'll buy it on vacation!"

"What's polite, usually we trouble you a lot, so I'll 'honor' you." Wen Li said jokingly.

"How embarrassing that is!" Shen Yi scratched the back of his head and smiled embarrassedly.

"No, no, just an apple." He Chunxiao said.

There are quite a few apples in the class, and there is finally a festival, so everyone wants to relax!

In the English class the next day, I thought the English teacher would be happy at Christmas, but she just said "Marry Christmas!" "And then it was gone.

"Students, although this is an English class, the teacher still does not recommend that you overspend at Christmas, after all, it is the Spring Festival of foreigners, and it has nothing to do with us, so don't blindly follow the trend, let's learn honestly! Come, open the textbook, and ······ today."

Wen Li, who was originally full of interest, couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this, the teacher was right, the social atmosphere of following the trend and celebrating festivals has intensified over the years. But on the other hand, in the face of boring study life every day, high school students really have little room for entertainment. It's really hard to choose whether to celebrate the festival or not.

Wen Li was not the only one in the class who thought so.

Perhaps the teacher also felt the loss of the students, so in the end, the English teacher assigned an English essay, which was to discuss whether the foreign festival should be celebrated.

If he had known that the English teacher would give one more weekend homework, Wen Li would never have been so disappointed when the English teacher finished speaking, but at Christmas!

On the way home, Wen Li kept thinking about this question. It stands to reason that the foreign festival is more in line with the teacher's meaning, but this is really not my true idea.

"What do you think little garbage?" Jiang Yu saw that Wen Li, who was usually alive and kicky, was so silent today, and it didn't feel right.

"I want to study!"

"Wow, you're not even thinking about what Auntie will do tonight, there is progress!" Jiang Yu teased.

"My mom eats everything she does, so you don't have to think about it."

"Then why is my dear little Lord Wen Li bothered about studying?" Zhu Ying couldn't help but ask.

"It's just that our English teacher assigned an English essay about whether or not to celebrate the foreign festival, and I don't know how to write it."

"Of course you shouldn't spend it, Christmas is only valued so much by people like you who are full of unscrupulous people, so why don't you think about it." Jiang Yu said bluntly.

"I think Jiang Yu is right, the foreign festival really shouldn't be promoted." Zhu Ying agreed.

"But don't you think it's relaxing? Most of China's festivals are given a heavy commemorative significance, such as the Qingming Festival to worship the deceased, and the Dragon Boat Festival to commemorate Qu Yuan. Wen Li retorted.

"Aren't you relaxed during the Spring Festival?" Zhu Ying also gave an example to refute.

"Relaxed." Wen Li couldn't refute it.

"So, this festival······" Zhu Ying just wanted to make a summary, but was interrupted by Jiang Yu.

"So, you can do whatever you want, just be happy, okay, summarize it, go home for dinner!"

"Your point of view is quite novel!" Wen Li exclaimed.

"Okay, let's go home, there's a lot to talk about!" Jiang Yu impatiently pushed the two of them forward.

After dinner in the evening, Wen Li sat at his desk and prepared to write a draft in Chinese first, and then translate it again tomorrow.

In fact, every festival has its own meaning of existence. We have holidays, holidays make us happy, and since the end result is to make people happy, then there is no need to be overly particular about how to be happy. On the premise of not violating the law and social order and good customs, how to celebrate the festival is a free choice!
