29. People are sophisticated, plagiarizing poetry
"Perfect, my handwriting is getting better and better, I couldn't believe I could write so beautiful and perfect words before."
After the first part of the classic exam was written, it was already half a day later.
Zhao Xuanqi first boiled water and cooked rice next to him, rested, and filled his stomach with his spirit and energy, and then continued to answer the question.
The first part of the "classic test" only needs to be read from the script, similar to filling in the blanks with words and phrases.
In addition to this, there is a very important second part, reading comprehension.
The examiner will randomly select a sentence from the classics of various Confucian sages, ask you to fill in the next sentence of this sentence, and answer this sentence as a whole.
Regarding the comprehension of the answer, Zhao Xuanqi fell silent and decided not to answer the question in the previous way, but to think about the information he knew in his mind.
"The examiner's name this time is Wu Youwei, a family member, once studied in Qingcheng Academy, often quarreled with the poor children of the academy, old-fashioned and conservative personality, biased towards conservatives, disgusted with those poor scholars, and liked to flatter and bully ......"
"After apprenticeship with the great Confucian Fang Qingshui, and this Fang Qingshui is also conservative and old-fashioned, the party is the 'Northland Party', and Wu Youwei also relies on this party to rise to the ......"
"In this analysis, the examiner is a typical high-ranking official from a family, who likes the children of a big family, is high, despises the poor people, and looks down on the poor."
"Therefore, I should be more conservative in answering questions, retro and polite, maintain more familyism, consider the powerful family, and quote the comments of the great Confucians on the side of the 'Northland Party' in terms of doing things, agree with this party, and follow this party in the direction of answering questions."
Zhao Xuanqi analyzed several other examiners, clarified the ideas, and finally wrote with confidence.
Reading comprehension is not only about reading comprehension, but also about human sophistication.
If he doesn't know the examiner's party and all kinds of information, as well as the hobbies of each examiner, he will inevitably make mistakes in answering questions under the constraints of the information cocoon.
For example, quoting the examiner's hostile party ideas, or the answers do not conform to the examiner's character, and the examiner dislikes.
In this way, no matter how perfect your answer is, it is only perfect in your own eyes.
The examiner will deduct points from you if he sees you unpleasantly, thinks that you are not in line with the partisan thinking, thinks you are too radical and is a hostile element.
The chief examiner is the person in charge of the scientific examination in Ziyun County, and to a certain extent, he determines the final score of a candidate.
People are not machines, they will always have their own interests and hobbies, and there is a choice of standing in line to please the examiner, which is an important prerequisite for a candidate's high score.
Zhao Xuanqi answered the question, and congratulated his wife for her foresight.
Spending a lot of money to inquire about the information of each examiner in advance did make it a lot easier for him to answer the questions.
"In the past imperial examinations, in the examination, the reason why the poor people always failed was that they could not see many treasured lone books, including vision is also a big problem, but on the other hand, there is no money to explore the interests and hobbies of various examiners, policy evidence, so in terms of reading comprehension, I don't know where to start, resulting in the final lifting completely depends on luck."
"The children of the family have enough money, there is no shortage of book resources, and they can inquire about the information of each examiner and the party, and even have close ties with each examiner, so they have an idea of answering, it is better than that of the poor, and there are naturally more people in the middle of the lift, and the political consciousness is high, even if they don't cheat, the score can far exceed that of ordinary people."
After most of the day, Zhao Xuanqi filled in all the answers to the classic test, and he could take the second part of the "trial test" and "word test".
At this point, the time has come to night.
Lamps and candles were lit next to his desk, and the faint light illuminated the examination booth enough for the candidates to answer the questions at night.
After a whole day of answering questions, Zhao Xuanqi is now dizzy and his palms are sore because of a day's writing, so he didn't choose to answer the questions at night.
There is no need for this.
It's easy to answer the wrong questions at night, and it's easy to read the wrong questions when you're dazzled.
Instead of answering questions at night and buying this time, it is better to have a good rest, refresh yourself the next day, and answer the questions in the best condition!
In this way, Zhao Xuanqi put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, lay on the table and rested slowly, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.
The other candidates still lit lamps and candles and wrote seriously, refusing to give up for a minute or a second, and his sleep was in stark contrast to the others.
Xiao Yan was a little surprised, which of the previous candidates was not a race against time to answer the questions?
This guy is good, he just went to bed after dark!
So he came over to take a look, until he was sure that Zhao Xuanqi was not suspected of cheating, and then continued to wander around the examination room.
Don't think there won't be anyone proctoring at night.
The level of invigilation at night is more strict, there will be many small officials to patrol back and forth, once they find something wrong, they will be searched, and it is difficult to cheat.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, Zhao Xuanqi got up early, washed up, and had a full meal, then sat down in his position and answered the question again.
"Poetry test" and "word test".
To be honest, there are many masterpieces of poetry in this world, and there are also particularly awesome famous ones, but those poets who have been passed down through the ages in the previous life do not exist in this world at all, resulting in him being able to plagiarize a lot of poems.
Therefore, the "poetry test" and "word test" are not a problem, they are relatively simple.
At least Zhao Xuanqi thinks it's simpler.
Trial Questions:
【…… According to the Confucian Fang Qingshui's "Thoughts on Climbing the Tower" to create...... The requirements are simple and clear, and the creation is based on the rhythm of Wei Shi, without deviating from the topic......]
In a series of official discourses, there are many requirements for exam questions, but Zhao Xuanqi only saw the words "Thoughts on Climbing the Tower", and asked the candidates to write their feelings when they climbed the stairs to compose poems, and not deviate from the Confucian model poems.
Without hesitation, he picked up the pen and wrote:
"Ascending the Tower"
At the end of the day,
The Yellow River flows into the sea.
Destitute,
Better.
This is a relatively famous poem about climbing the tower, and there is also the Yellow River in this world, and the Yellow River also belongs to the more famous river, so it is not off topic to write here.
The phrase "want to be poor for a thousand miles, go to the next level" is a poem that has been passed down through the ages in China.
Presumably, if it is placed in this parallel world and used as the answer to the scientific examination, the results are definitely not much worse.
As for the "word test", it is even simpler, and it also requires candidates to compose lyrics according to the works of a certain great Confucian, and then watch the idea of something, and what is required here is to write "Yangtze River".
Zhao Xuanqi rubbed his eyes, looked at the title and inevitably sighed: "Judging from the title of the poem, it is either the impression of climbing the building, or the feeling of watching the Yangtze River......"
"Climbing tall buildings and visiting the Yangtze River, it seems simple but it is not simple at all, after all, these are all projects that only the family has, and only the people of the family can not be bound by money, so leisurely travel."
"And the poor people have road restrictions, can not move around at will, tied to the place of birth all day long, even if they are finally admitted to show their talents, there is no money to support the long trip to see the scenery, the place is also relatively chaotic, there are many bandits and bandits, poor scholars have no ability to hire bodyguards, the crisis is very great."
"No wonder the children of the family have done so well in the exam, and they have crushed ordinary people in terms of poetry and lyrics, people can travel and conduct field trips, they have indeed climbed high-rise buildings, and they have indeed seen the mighty Yellow River, they are rich in emotions and have many feelings......
"And you are a poor family, you can only stay in your own one-third of an acre, watch the rice planting and farming, have never been on a high-rise building in your life, only hope to fill your stomach, short-sighted, can only imagine the high-rise scene and the magnificence of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River from other people's descriptions, how can you be inspired to do poetry?"
Zhao Xuanqi deeply realized the malice of the imperial examination for the poor people at this moment.
Sure enough, reading and taking a scientific examination has never been a poor man's project, it is something that only rich people can play!
"Verses about the Yangtze River......"
He shook his head, scattered all the ideas in his mind, and still chose to copy a word, and it was a noun for the ages!
"On the Yangtze River"
The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes.
Success or failure turns empty.
The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times.
On the white-haired fisherman river, accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze.
A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet.
How many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking.
