She only paid attention to her father’s company from time to time. In fact, she didn’t pay much attention to it. She only took a look occasionally to get to know her father’s company and other things.
Most of the time, her intentions weren’t strong.
When the time came, Shui Shui fell asleep peacefully. On normal days, they still focused on their studies. Their debate competition also ushered in the second round. This time, they would be given questions in advance, but they weren’t sure if they were on the right side or the wrong side. However, by giving them questions in advance, they had time to prepare more.
The topic that Shui Shui and the others were given was, ‘gay, do you support it or not? ‘ Shui Shui was speechless. How could there be such a topic Moreover, such a topic would easily offend people. After all, foreigners were more open to gay people, and some people were more conservative. Moreover, the judges were all foreigners. Who knew if one of them would be gay It was easier to support this side, but it was more difficult to oppose the other side.
Qian Shuishui thought more and the three of them sat together. Luo Ming looked at the topic and said, “Shui Shui, do you think our side is better or the other side? ”
“although it seems like the right side is easy to talk about, it’s actually not. It’s only slightly easier to talk about it than the wrong side. We need to prepare for both sides. Let’s use some obvious areas as examples. Also, we need to calculate the ratio of each side.”Shui Shui looked at the topic She was conflicted. She was not good at talking about such topics. Right now, she was conflicted about how to use the right side or the wrong side to talk about this topic. Although she did not reject homosexuals, she was only neutral.
Ma Yue obviously liked this topic because she felt that there were a lot of things she could say.
Luo Ming was a man after all. If he supported homosexuals, what would happen if others suspected his mentality?
The few of them looked through the information. Although Shui Shui wasn’t good at this type of thing, she was still trying her best. In any case, she was trying her best. If the result was the same, it didn’t matter anymore.
On Saturday morning, they gathered at the school gate at 9:30 am.
The three of them were wearing more formal clothes. Ma Yue and Shui Shui were both wearing black dresses, while Luo Ming was wearing a black suit. The leader of the team was also dressed more formally. After all, they were not going to a few schools this time. Only those who had passed the first debate competition would be able to go. In this way, at least a dozen schools would participate. The school that stood out would be able to participate in the national debate competition. These evaluations would be based on a large region. Right now, their place was centered around city A. The high schools from the neighboring towns would all come to city a to participate in the debate competition.
The pressure of competition was also very great. Of course, not all schools would participate. The prerequisite was that the school had a certain level of ability. It was the school that felt that its students could stand out.
The competition in key universities was the most intense because most of the people were not bad. From thousands of people to stand out, this person must have a certain level of ability.
Luo Ming separated out some snacks for Ma Yue and Qian Shuishui. “Come, let’s eat something. Are you nervous? ”
Ma Yue shook her head. “I’m very excited now! ”
Shui Shui was still fine, but she was still neither cold nor hot. “thank you. When I went out, I already ate something. I can’t eat now. ”
“En, if we can win this time, then we can enter the third round of the finals. Just thinking about it makes me very excited. ” Luo Ming was also very nervous because he heard that there would be many people watching.
Shui Shui nodded. “It’s quite exciting. As long as we enter the finals, it seems like we can get extra points for the college entrance examination. ”
Ma Yue hoped that her opponent would be a little weaker. Moreover, this time, she had to perform well.
The lead teacher saw that they were about to arrive at the convention center, so he stood up. “Are the three of you ready? ”
“We’re ready. ”
“Then, let’s fight with our backs to the water today. Although the topic is a little strange, as long as we work hard, we’ll definitely succeed. “. Ma Yue, this time, don’t be as anxious as last time. You won’t be able to interrupt later. Luo Ming, this time, you just have to remain as calm as last time. “As for Qian Shuishui, you are the main debater and everyone has witnessed your strength. However, when you speak, you have to consider whether your teammates can understand your words or not. Sometimes, you will say words that are out of the ordinary and speak quickly, causing everyone to be unable to keep up with you. ” The leader reminded the three of them.
Shui Shui nodded. “Try your best. Let’s see how the other party does. ”
“teacher, don’t worry. We have been practicing in private. We have probably gotten used to Qian Shuishui’s speed of speech. It shouldn’t be a big problem. ” Luo Ming said. Sometimes, speaking too quickly and making the other party unable to understand was also a trump card When the time came, because of the teacher’s words, Qian Shuishui would change her way of speaking. That would be a little mysterious.
The lead teacher looked at the three children. “The teacher can’t help you, so you can only rely on yourself. Do your best. Don’t be defeated by yourself. ”
“Okay. ”
When they arrived at the convention center, they weren’t the first to arrive. After entering, they saw different people. The first few rows of the Convention Center were almost filled with people.
When they entered, a staff member gave them a sign “San Gao, please bring this purple sign. “. “Let me explain it to you a little. Those with white signs are all outsiders who come to watch, and each school’s color is different. If you wear purple, the staff inside will know which school you come from. ”
“Okay, thank you. ” The lead teacher felt that this was quite convenient.
They went in and sat in the front row. As the lead debater, Shui Shui Shui wanted to go up to the stage and continue introducing herself. She originally thought that it would be the same as before, but it looked different again, the host said “The debate score is 50 points. Even if you win, it will be based on how fluent you are in speaking and whether you can be understood. If you are not fluent enough and if you are too hesitant, then you will lose points. “And the school and team’s introduction later will have five points. If you can get it, you might be able to make a comeback. ”
The host spoke in English, and many people missed it because they did not pay attention. But how could Shui Shui Miss it? She noted it down, and when she introduced the team later, she tried her best to say it better.
For those who didn’t pay attention, the introduction of the school and their teammates were all done in a hurry. Of course, there were also serious introductions, such as Shui Shui Shui who listened to the host’s words.
She made use of the time and began to introduce the school and the school environment, making them love English. Following that was a clear introduction of their teammates, each with their own unique characteristics.
“Did you notice that Shui Shui Shui introduced a little too much? ” Luo Ming asked.
Ma Yue nodded, “but as long as it’s within the stipulated time, it doesn’t matter. She wants to leave a good impression on the judges, right? This is also fine. At least, it can help the judges deepen their memories of our school. ”
“That’s true. ” Luo Ming nodded and didn’t think too much about it.
After the dozen or so people had finished talking, they started. Each round took about half an hour, shortening the time. It all depended on this half an hour, the fluency of the situation, and how the argument went.
Unfortunately, they were fighting against one tall.
One tall was two men and one woman, and three tall were two women and one man. They sat down, sorted out the information, and waited for the start.
The three people greeted Shui Shui and the others in a friendly manner. “Hello, we’re from one tall. To be able to fight means that we’re fated. I hope you can show mercy. ”
“Of course not. We only hope that you will not be too ruthless, ” Ma Yue replied. She always felt that the other party’s gaze carried a trace of contempt.
When the lead teacher saw that they were from the first high school, he felt that it was very dangerous. Then, someone started to discuss “Do you know about that female student? ” “She went abroad to study for a year in junior high school. Previously, it seemed like the eleventh high school was competing with them, but in the end, they couldn’t be compared at all. That girl is really very powerful. Moreover, she likes to say words that are more difficult and exceed the vocabulary of a high school student. ”
When the team leader of the third high school heard this, he thought, “not good, will it be very dangerous? ” Shui Shui was the only one among them who was better, but Shui Shui had also said that she had never been abroad before, so her current strength had been honed by herself. How could she be compared to those who had studied abroad?
Shui Shui looked at the judges. Because the judges had shown themselves, they said they supported it, while the first high school students said they opposed it.
At the beginning, Ma Yue would be the one to speak.
Ma Yue was a little surprised, but she was very proactive. From the beginning, she wanted to show off.
Luo Ming looked at Shui Shui. He didn’t expect her to let Ma Yue start.
Ma Yue was full of confidence. She spoke very fluently.
As the other party listened, he seemed to have underestimated her strength.
Both parties began to engage in an intense debate. Shui Shui Shui didn’t answer because both Ma Yue and Luo Ming could answer, so she listened. When the other party approached step by step, making it difficult for Ma Yue and Luo Ming to speak, they immediately stood up “If you think that homosexuality is not right, then you have to question the decisions of several countries. They can all marry homosexuals. Every policy of theirs is decided after consideration, not immediately. “If you talk about religion, then I can doubt that you are religious discrimination. If you talk about morality and ethics, although it is natural for men and women to marry, that is only our subjective thinking
“Everyone’s outlook on the world, life, and values are different. We should not hold any discrimination against homosexuals. Instead, we should face this problem head-on. “Therefore, I hope that the opposite party can treat homosexuals rationally and not treat them like monsters. ” Shui Shui did not give examples However, by emphasizing discrimination, she was forcing the other party to do so. If the other party really used discrimination as a method, she was afraid that this statement would be repulsive.
It was indeed true. The other girl harshly refuted Shui Shui, “we don’t discriminate in any way, but religion is very important. Everyone has faith. With faith, they might not choose to have same-sex love. ”
Shui Shui also immediately refuted “There are also atheists, and every faith is different. Some believe in Satan, and this is also a faith. What do you say “You can’t say that they are wrong. This is just an individual’s belief. You can’t absolve everyone of their beliefs and values. ”
“So, I can think that you are against homosexuality because of your religious beliefs, not because of your subjective thoughts. ” Shui Shui was still as calm as ever. She looked at the time and it had already been 20 minutes. If she could infuriate the other party now.. That was not bad.
