The portrait in the projection... no, it should be said that as soon as the ghost image was revealed, I heard a series of gasps from around me. The reason was for no other reason than that the examiner looked really scary.
I won’t describe the specific description here. All you need to know is that the examiner’s appearance is several times scarier than Ms. Sadako behind me. Even though I am used to seeing ghosts, when I saw him
The moment he changed his appearance, a cold air rose from his back.
However, no matter how scary this examiner is, he is just a projection. Like several candidates around me, he can only see but cannot touch, so I was only nervous at first, and then recovered.
calm.
"Hello everyone, I am the examiner, and I am fully responsible for this exam." The examiner said, his voice was extremely hoarse, but it was full of chills.
"This exam will be conducted in the form of question and answer. I will ask each candidate questions. There are a total of thirty questions. One point will be awarded for each correct answer, and one point will be deducted for each incorrect answer. The score can be negative. There will be no penalty for more than thirty seconds.
If the person answers, this question is skipped. Finally, the students are ranked from high to low by the number of points. The top three are excellent, the top five are passing, and the bottom three are failing.
"Excellent students will be rewarded according to their ranking after the exam. Those who pass can leave the school safely, and those who fail will be wiped out. After the three failed students are wiped out, their points will be divided equally among the three outstanding students. If it cannot be divided equally, the one with the highest ranking will take precedence.
distribute."
"During the exam, candidates are prohibited from whispering to each other. Anyone who violates the rules will be disqualified. The method of answering questions is rush answering. The first person to answer correctly will get one point. Those who answer incorrectly will have one point deducted regardless of the order and number."
"The above are the rules of this exam. Now I will give you three minutes to understand and ask questions. I will give appropriate answers on the premise that the questions are reasonable." The examiner said in a sinister tone.
The examiner was very precious with his words. After explaining the rules, he kept silent and stared at us with his terrifying eyes.
After meeting the examiner's eyes, several candidates except me trembled, and for a moment they didn't know what to ask.
"Can I ask in advance what the reward is?" At this time, I asked.
Hearing this, several other candidates looked at me in surprise.
"No." The examiner said indifferently.
"Oh, what if at the end, two or more people have a tie?" I asked again.
This time, the examiner took one more look at me and said immediately: "The first candidate to reach this score will be the first."
"I understand." I nodded and said, "There are no other questions. I heard the rules very clearly. Thank you for your answer, Mr. Examiner."
"Do the other students have any questions?" Facing my thanks, the examiner had no expression on his face. He looked at the other candidates. A look of horror appeared on the faces of all the students he looked at.
They instinctively stopped asking questions, fearing that they would not have the courage to look directly at the examiner.
"Okay, since everyone has no questions, this exam has officially begun. Please listen to the first question..." the examiner said slowly.
After he finished speaking, we held our breath almost at the same time and listened nervously. Some people with strong psychological quality dared to raise their heads and look at the examiner, while others who were timid only dared to listen.
"What is a set without any elements called?" the examiner said very quickly.
"A set without any elements...isn't that math?"
I searched for the answer quickly in my mind, and after a second, I blurted it out.
"Empty set!"
"If you answer correctly, candidate Ye Yan will gain one point."
The examiner nodded towards me, and a smile finally appeared on his expressionless face. Even though it was still very ugly and scary, it seemed that he was very satisfied with me for answering the question correctly.
Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, I really didn't expect that there would be a math question, and it was such a simple question. The question the examiner asked just now was a conceptual question in the first unit of the compulsory mathematics course.
Although I haven't studied for a month, fortunately this question is simple enough that I answered it with almost no thinking.
"Ye Yan, you guy..." Liu Chang looked at me with fire in his eyes. In fact, he also knew the answer to the question, and his reaction speed was not slower than mine, but he hesitated because he felt that there was no reason for the first question to be so simple.
, if I accidentally answer the wrong question, won’t I have to deduct one point?
Therefore, he was one point late, allowing me to answer the question correctly first. I can only say that the rule of deducting points for wrong answers put too much pressure on Liu Chang.
How did Liu Chang know that it was precisely because of the simplicity that I dared to blurt it out, because I thought the first question should not be too difficult, and the difficulty would increase later, and I was confident in my memory.
"Hey! How could it be such a simple question! I had already thought of it..."
"Me too, mainly because I didn't think there would be such a simple question, let alone a math question!"
"I know this question too! I'm just a little slow!"
At this time, other candidates who had reacted also started to make second thoughts, but this was obviously of no use. The fact had been established. No matter how much they said, it was nothing more than useless self-comfort.
"Okay, please be quiet. It's time for the next question." The examiner stopped our conversation and said in a deep voice: "Let me share some information with you in advance. The next question is also a math question..."
"Then, please listen to the question!"
The examiner was silent for two seconds, and then said concisely and concisely: "Please answer any formula of the cosine theorem!"
"The Cosine Theorem..." Upon hearing this, some memory fragments related to the Cosine Theorem flashed through my mind when I heard Liu Chang rush to answer.
"sc=a2+b2-c2 divided by 2ab!" Liu Chang replied excitedly.
"..." The examiner looked at the nervous Liu Chang expressionlessly. After a while, a smile appeared on his face again and said: "The answer is correct! Candidate Liu Chang gets one point!"
"Yeah! I also scored a point hahahaha..." Liu Chang looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Hey... Cosine theorem, this is a bit out of line..." I looked at the examiner and asked, "Isn't this the knowledge you learned in the required four courses?"
In our Yangtze Province, the teaching progress of the mathematics subject for the first grade students is like this. In the first semester of high school, they study compulsory course 1 and part of compulsory course 2, and in the second semester of high school, they study part of compulsory course 3 and the entire compulsory course 4. I have vaguely heard that,
The cosine theorem is the content of compulsory course four, that is to say, it is something we can only learn in the next semester.
And I am the kind of student who follows whatever is taught in school and never previews in advance. Of course, I will study the current progress seriously, but I am not used to previewing.
"If the questions are all familiar and simple questions, then what's the point of asking them?" The examiner looked directly at me and said calmly: "Besides, this is not very over-the-top, right? Isn't there someone who can answer the answer?
Already?"
"Okay, I'm just asking casually, don't mind." I nodded.
"Haha, Ye Yan, this is because your ability is not good enough." Hearing this, Liu Chang looked at me proudly and said: "Let me tell you a good thing. In fact, I am the math class representative of the original class. The knowledge of the first semester of high school
I finished studying as early as the summer vacation after the high school entrance examination, and I was not idle in the first semester of high school either. I have already mastered the knowledge for the next semester. Understand, I am a long way ahead of you!"
Seeing Liu Chang's proud look, I wasn't too angry. Being able to learn the entire first-grade knowledge in advance in the first semester of high school is enough to prove Liu Chang's great strength.
"Okay, it's time for the third question." The examiner interrupted Liu Chang's boasting and said slowly: "Friendly reminder, this question is also related to mathematics... Please be prepared."
Hearing this, Liu Chang's expression suddenly shook, and a look of confidence appeared in his eyes. He believed that as long as the question was related to mathematics, he would be the one with the fastest reaction. The reason why the first question was slow was just because he did not expect it.
The question will be that simple.
"Please listen to the question..." the examiner said in a sinister tone.
