Chapter 685: Passing the Preliminary Round

Children who come to the county for the first time are curious about everywhere.

Looking up at the tall buildings around you, and looking down at the flat and solid asphalt road under your feet, it is really fresh everywhere.

"Teacher, where are we going?"

"Go east, go to the teacher training school, keep up, don't walk around, there are many people in the county, I can't find you if you get lost."

Teacher Jiang, the leader of the team, pointed to the east and led the children forward.

The children who first arrived in the county couldn't distinguish between east and west, north and south, so they could only follow the teacher honestly.

As I walked, I took in the sights along the way.

The teacher training school, at the foot of the east mountain in the county seat, walks all the way east from the alley in front of the grain bureau, and is close to the root of the east mountain.

It is a large courtyard, with office buildings and conference rooms on the south side, a canteen on the east side on the north side, and a dormitory on the west side.

"You guys stay in the courtyard for a while, and I'll go through the formalities."

All participating schools have to sign in to the office building, and then arrange rooms and accommodation.

Teacher Jiang let the children play in the yard, and she took the school's letter of introduction and other things to the office building to sign in and go through the formalities.

After a short time, Teacher Jiang came out and led the children to the north dormitory.

Under the arrangement of the staff, four girls lived in one room and two boys lived in one room temporarily.

If there are many people coming in the afternoon, people will be arranged inside. Mr. Jiang lives with teachers elsewhere.

The dormitory has a total of three floors, Xu Haiyuan lives on the second floor, and with him is the squad leader of the third class.

This kind of competition is based on the good grades in the class, most of them are class leaders, or they are also school committees, and ordinary students can't take their turn at all.

Everyone went into the dormitory to rest, and went downstairs to the cafeteria at eleven o'clock at noon to eat.

Ten people at a table, ten dishes, no matter whether they know each other or not, they sit down and eat anyway.

The food is okay, there are a few cans, everyone rushes to eat the canned, Xu Haiyuan eats two bites, and the plate is empty.

He didn't pick anything, he could eat whatever he wanted, and he ate two bowls of rice.

In the afternoon, when there was nothing to do, the teacher asked the children to memorize the questions in the dormitory.

I woke up early the next morning, washed up, had breakfast, and then all went to the conference room in the south office building to prepare for the game.

There are 16 central primary schools in 16 townships and towns in the county, plus several primary schools in the county, and each primary school arranges one or two groups of students to participate in the competition.

In some larger villages, a group of students will also be arranged, so the meeting room is full of people.

The competition is divided into two rounds, the preliminary round and the final.

The competition questions of the central primary school and the village primary school are different, and the questions of the central primary school are difficult.

A group of three stepped forward to draw lots, and asked which set of questions were drawn, and the teacher asked questions one by one.

Ask ten questions in one minute, ask questions quickly and answer quickly, and answer one question correctly for ten points.

Originally, I thought that the scope of the questions was on the book, but in this competition, I realized that there were many questions that were not in the book at all.

Some children are just dumbfounded, not at all.

There are also some children who are usually very skilled at home, but as soon as they come on the field, they look at so many people below, and they are directly confused.

Ten questions a minute, I can't respond at all.

Some children stumbled and couldn't answer when they came on stage, and they whimpered and cried when they got off stage.

"I remember everything, don't be nervous after you go on stage, just treat these people in the audience as turnips and potatoes."

Teacher Jiang called the six students together and repeatedly told them to calm down and not be nervous.

There are two groups of students in Donggang Central Primary School, each group is a boy and two girls.

The group led by Xu Haiyuan has the squad leader of the second class and a school committee in the fourth class.

The squad leader of the third class is called Liu Qiang, and he also has a squad leader and a school committee.

The order of each group of students on stage is determined by the teacher by drawing lots, and the two groups of Donggang Central Primary School are separated by a long time.

Liu Qiang's group came to the stage first, and the team leader drew questions, probably because his luck was not very good, and the questions he drew were very difficult.

The school committee in the first class was stupid when he heard the questions, and he finally answered five of the ten questions correctly, and when he got off the stage, the little girl whimpered and cried.

Xu Haiyuan and the others were at the back, and they finally came to power, and Xu Haiyuan went to draw questions.

It's okay, luckily, most of the questions are from the book they memorized, and only Xu Haiyuan encountered two out-of-scope questions.

Based on Xu Haiyuan's knowledge, this is all drizzle, and he easily answered and got a full score.

There are too many schools and students participating in the competition, and the competition will continue in the afternoon.

Then from all the groups in the preliminary round, the top 10 central schools will be selected, the top 5 village schools will be selected, and the finals will be made on the second day.

The group led by Xu Haiyuan was successfully promoted with the first overall score.

The other group was eliminated due to the poor performance of the team members.

"It's good, you're playing well, hurry up and eat, after eating, I'll take you to Xijiang Park for a while."

Mr. Jiang is quite satisfied with this achievement.

This is the first competition in the county, and both teachers and students have little experience, so it's good that one group can make it to the finals.

When the students heard this, they rejoiced.

The little girl who had been crying for a long time stopped crying now and hurried to eat.

The big guy followed Teacher Jiang out of the further education school, and walked along the path from the east mountain of the county town to the embankment of the Xijiang River.

Don't care about Li Jingyu's work ability, but he really works hard for the construction of this city.

Last year, in order to hold a ginseng festival, the county specially repaired the Xijiang embankment.

There are guardrails, sidewalks, gazebos, stone tables and benches, and the whole thing is very beautiful.

After the beginning of spring this year, the county arranged for people to make a lot of statues on this river embankment.

There are dancing fairies, black bears emerging from tree holes, fawns, squirrels, and more.

Therefore, the Xijiang embankment has now become a place for people in the county to relax after tea and dinner.

In early summer, after dinner, a few families come out to walk around, watch the sunset, blow the river breeze, not to mention, quite comfortable.

When have these children in Donggang ever seen such a beautiful park?

Everyone is happy, this touch and that, everywhere is rare.

Especially the statues, each of which the children had to stand and look at for a long time.

"It's a pity that I don't have a camera, if only I had a camera, I can take a few photos of you as a souvenir."

Teacher Jiang is also very regretful, it is difficult for children to come out, how good it would be if there was a camera?

Xu Haiyuan didn't squeak over there.

He did have a camera at home, but the teacher didn't say it, and he didn't bother to look for those cumbersome, so he didn't bring it.

Besides, it's a county seat, as for it?

When I have the opportunity to go to the province and the capital in the future, I can take as many photos as I want.

In the evening, there are many people in Xijiang Park, and some small vendors have also found business opportunities, and many people are shouting popsicles, ice cream and melon seeds.

Xu Haiyuan remembered his father's instructions, so he went over and sold everyone a two-cent ice cream and distributed it to everyone.

"Wow, ice cream, this one is delicious, it's much more expensive than popsicles." When they saw it, they all rejoiced.

It's good to have a five-cent popsicle on weekdays, but this ice cream costs two cents.

Xu Haiyuan is willing to change it, who is willing to buy such expensive ice cream to eat.

"Well, it's delicious, much better than popsicles."
