He took a moment to read the content of "Three Years of Show and Five Years of Promotion" in general.

I can understand it in general. After all, they are all Chinese characters, and although the mathematical language is relatively brief, it can still be understood according to the questions.

Except for the fact that it is ∵, it is ∴, greater than less than, curly braces, small parentheses, and root numbers, and so on, all the symbols related to operations are all different.

But in general, it is still based on Chinese characters. It is not a big problem to add and minus signs to write +- or beggars, ∫ there are a few more strokes compared to He. The trouble is to pay attention to the frame of the glyph when writing, He should be written next to the word He, and then try to write on the right side to be beautiful and symmetrical. Because the roll counts the score.

What he wanted to ask most now was why Lao Shang didn't correct him. He had obviously calculated some equations in front of the old businessman, but the old businessman didn't say anything at all. He doesn't go to school in Yangzhou, so he doesn't know that the symbols in middle and high school are completely different.

Fortunately, it is not a big problem.

Because the language of mathematics is universal, but the symbols are different. Although it does take a few more strokes, the depressed turtles have been written, and it is really not a big problem to write Chenghe ∫.

"Well, do you have your own number?"

"Probably fine." Shang Luo is still relatively confident in his math level - at least passing should not be a problem. He flipped through the high school exercises here, and the hard part was really difficult. And there are some derivative problems, limit problems, and some matrix operations are also applied.

But in general, it's not too much of an overrun for him, so it's not a big problem.

"It's good if you have a number. The other classes aren't too problematic, right? ”

The two of them communicate with each other, and it is really not a big problem.

Chinese lessons, Chinese language lessons, or those things. "Pei Gong rode from more than 100 days to see King Xiang", "The fish in the pond can have a hundred heads, all of which are like empty swimming and have nothing to rely on." ”。 There is also "Pipa Xing", and even the stalk of "Pipa Playing Technique" is the same.

Mathematics, or that mathematics.

English is not available, but Latin is compulsory at university, and there is a corresponding compulsory Chinese course in Rome, and it seems to be earlier.

Historiography, basically. Because the "Ming Dynasty" is not over yet, there is no history of the Ming Dynasty. After the Hongwu Dynasty, it is regarded as modern history, accounting for not too much, and the main test points are still the Shang Dynasty reform, the rule of Zhenguan, and the rule of Kaiyuan.

What really made Shang Luo feel a little troublesome was the social studies class and Confucianism class.

Social lessons are the laws of the Ming Dynasty, all kinds of laws, all kinds of edicts, edicts, and tables. "The Great Army Post", and many edicts such as "Every time the students listen: the previous Zong Ne made sacrificial wine" and "I am on the west side of the Han ground" and so on, they have to be recited in full. Because it is a vernacular text of the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, it is especially troublesome to memorize.

The Confucian class is the Four Books and the Five Classics. However, the test is very shallow, and some understanding of the scriptures must be tested within the scope of the four books, and the five classics only need to be able to memorize the content.

In terms of the number of words, the four books of "University" are 1753 words and "The Mean" are 3568 words, which were originally excerpts from the Book of Rites. Neither the Analects nor Mencius need to memorize and comprehend the full text, but only memorize excerpts, which add up to about 20,000 words. The Pentateuch is only sporadically selected, and the total number of memorized words is about 20,000 words. It adds up to about 48,000 words.

There are many parts that overlap with the Chinese language class, history class, and social studies class, so there are not too many parts to memorize for the average student. It was a little more troublesome for Shang Luo, but he had already known that he had to take the imperial examination, so he had already completed the recitation of forty or fifty thousand words - he felt that to be honest, it was much easier than reciting "abandon", at least the Analects spoke human language.

In fact, as far as the part of the Confucian exam questions is concerned, this amount of memorization is set aside hundreds of years ago, that is, a few years after enlightenment, and the content of the Xiucai exam is much more difficult than these. However, today's Xiucai test is only a "national benchmark", and the content of memorization is not too complicated, and it has penetrated into various cultural works, and it can be roughly written in connection with the context during the exam.

Adding natural sciences such as mathematics and physics, the general difficulty is actually not very good compared with the previous Xiucai exam. But from the point of view of the pass rate, this pass rate class is much higher.

"Whew." Qi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's okay." If our class fails to pass the test, it will be a dereliction of duty for me, the class leader. Anyway, I've always wondered if your mathematical notation is an algorithm from the Roman side. Because it's all Latin letters. ”

"It's like that." Han Xingzhi replied, "My uncle is learning Latin, and I have read his books. There are many similarities between the symbols in it and the Roman ones. Well, though, it's different. After all, there are more Chinese characters in Rome than in this book of heaven. ”

"Wait." Shang Luo was stunned for a moment, "Do you use Chinese characters over there in Rome?" ”

"Well, there are a lot of Chinese words in Latin, and then the Latin alphabet is used to mark the original sound. This person who doesn't learn Latin may not know, but I also read my uncle's Latin textbook. After all, we don't have much communication with Rome. They treat Chinese characters as ideograms, and they don't pronounce them according to them, but they write them. It is written very much like that of the North Koreans, with a few characters added to the Chinese characters. However, only scholars in Rome can write like this, and all of them written in Latin will not affect the ideology, anyway, there are a lot of borrowed words in Latin. ”

"Why is this happening? As far as I know, there's been surprisingly little communication between the two sides, right? Except for scientific and technological exchanges, I have not seen any cultural works that have been passed down, and nothing has been handed down. ”

"It seems to be because of the theory that the Romans considered Chinese characters to be 'Eden', ideograms rooted in the bottom layers of human history. The examples of North Korea and Japan were then referenced, and they saw that there was nothing wrong with introducing Chinese characters into the symbolic system. And so it was introduced. Therefore, the Latin we learn is also a written Latin language written in Chinese characters and Latin, which is actually not very convenient for reading things other than academic literature. ”

"So they independently decided to use Chinese characters?"

"The people in Rome always make some very big moves for reasons that they don't understand at the moment, and sometimes they look really weird. However, in the long run, there is generally no problem, for example, when we both use Chinese characters as technical words, it is very convenient to make words. Without the help of Chinese characters, the academic expression of Latin would have been several times longer than it is today. For example, telephones, lights, etc. ”

"Well, that's convenient for us?"

"Definitely. The most convenient thing is actually us, and the Romans themselves are not so convenient. Oh, let's get some study materials, it's time for dinner. ”

Qi Yuan put the study material back and made room for the desk.

"This is a snack for all of you." The waiter in the apron brought 5 portions of jelly first, "I'm still studying before eating, so I'm really serious." Good luck with your exams. ”
