58 The Competition
At this time, several teachers from Haicheng Second High School were browsing through an exam paper on the computer.
The paper was very neat without any trace of correction. Not only that, the answers to every question on it were correct, and some of the answers were even simpler than the reference answers.
“This is the top student of Haicheng. She’s a student from the high school affiliated with Haicheng University.” Sun Zhou, the Head of Mathematics at Haicheng Second High School, said.
Another very old teacher pushed up his glasses and looked at the test paper on the computer with a frown. “This student is really not so easy to deal with.”
“Teacher Tian Chang, what do you think?” Sun Zhou asked.
“I’ve been teaching for more than 30 years, and I’ve never seen such an outstanding student,” Tian Chang said.
Tian Chang was a senior mathematics teacher in Haicheng. He was almost 60 years old this year, but his teaching skills were very impressive. He was very good at tutoring students in competitions.
Tian Sa, the second-place winner of the Haicheng Mathematics Competition, was her grandson.
‘This student scored full marks for all the questions, and there were even some questions that I couldn’t think of.’ Tian Chang clicked his tongue in wonder. ‘it won’t be a problem for such a student to make an exception and go to Beijing University.’
“It’s that strong?” Sun Zhou frowned.
It seemed that Haicheng Second High School was not going to be the champion of this year’s Mathematics Competition.
“This student is indeed quite something, but hasn’t Tian Sa been training all year as well? He’s only five points away from full marks this time,” Sun Zhou said.
Tian Chang shook his head. Although Tian Sa was already very good, the difference of five points wasn’t simple. It wasn’t as simple as a question, but a difference in mentality and way of thinking.
Even if they followed Tian Chang’s training method, they couldn’t train all the questions at once.
There would be new questions every year, and these new questions were based on a person’s way of thinking.
This student named Guo Miao’s way of thinking was even above that of the teacher’s.
Sun Zhou sighed. “Although Haicheng Second High School results are not bad this time, Guo Miao is really too formidable. We’d better think of a way to get into the team competition.”
The teachers from Haicheng Second High School beat their chests and stamped their feet.
Chang Yuan stood on the podium in the class, grinning from ear to ear. “The first place in this year’s Mathematics Competition preliminaries is Guo Miao from our class. Congratulations, Guo Miao, for not only getting first place in the city-wide Mathematics Competition preliminaries but also for getting full marks!”
The slackers of Class 10 were stunned at first, but then they began to cheer.
Chen Cheng quickly stopped everyone from cheering.
Although the students in Class 10 had nothing to do with competitions, everyone knew that competitions were several levels harder than ordinary math exams.
For Guo Miao to be able to get a perfect score in the competition this time, her mathematical ability must be extraordinary.
“Everyone should take student Guo Miao as an example,” Chen Cheng said with a smile.
“Teacher, how many points did the top student in the school score this time?” someone asked.
Lu Yao did not perform well this time. He was third in the city with 110 points, which was much worse than Tian Sa’s 115 points and Guo Miao’s 120 points.
“Lu Yao got 110 points this time, but it’s still the third-best score in the city. I hope that our Class 10 students can learn from these two and strive to improve our math grades.”
Everyone groaned and took out their mathematics textbooks to start studying.
The news that Guo Miao was first in the city with full marks spread throughout the school very quickly.
No matter where Guo Miao went, people would stop to admire the genius. There were even a few boys who saw Guo Miao walking over. They lined up in advance and bowed to her, euphemistically calling their action “paying respect to the God of studies.”
Guo Miao was a little annoyed by everyone’s enthusiasm, so she decided to take a two-day leave to go to Beijing.
However, it wasn’t really to avoid the overly enthusiastic students.
The National Science and Technology Competition was about to have the final debate, and she had to go to Beijing in person for the debate.
When handing in the leave application form, Chen Cheng even asked what kind of competition it was, but Guo Miao dodged the question.
It was the New Year’s holiday after the game, so Guo Miao thought she could stay in Beijing for a while.
During this time, Guo Fu found a job as a school worker at Haicheng Primary school. Although his usual job was to repair computer processing facilities, the teachers at Haicheng Primary School respected him because he worked hard and was capable. (His father had sold so many fish in the countryside. How did he know how to repair computers?)
Xuxu was also studying at Haicheng Primary School, and the father and son;’s lives were on track.
However, Guo Miao was still a little worried and gave the father and son a lot of advice. She also asked En Cai to help her take care of the house when he was free.
