Chapter 38 Play-off "How is it possible!" Wen Xu murmured and moved his lips, unable to believe that he didn't get this question at such a fast speed.
Gu Anyue's face wasn't very good either. It was as pale as a piece of white paper, without the slightest trace of blood. It was obvious that he valued the outcome of the game very seriously.
"Hey!" Wen Xu sighed, turned to comfort Gu Anyue, "Although they got this question, they may not have answered it correctly."
Wen Xu is right. Xu Baichuan and the others got this question, but they may not get the answer right. As long as Xu Baichuan gets the answer wrong, their points will be reduced by ten points and their lead will be lost. The two teams will return to the starting line.
Above. But, will Xu Baichuan and Nie Xin really make mistakes?
The last question tests religious issues in the Middle Ages. It is more difficult than the previous four questions. If you have not read the relevant information in advance, it is not easy to choose the correct answer among the four answers.
thing.
"I hope they really can't answer it." Gu Anyue prayed softly in her heart, closed her eyes slightly, and waited silently for the final result.
At this moment, everyone focused their attention on Xu Baichuan and Nie Xin. Everyone wanted to know how Xu Baichuan would answer.
Facing everyone's gaze, Xu Baichuan didn't feel nervous at all. He looked at the question and shook his head, and said calmly: "I don't know the correct answer to this question. Let my partner Nie Xin answer this question."
Nie Xin looked at the question and shook his head, and said unwillingly: "I don't know what to choose."
"Then let's give up this question." Xu Baichuan glanced at Nie Xin and said lightly.
When the host and the audience heard what Xu Baichuan and Nie Xin said, they were all shocked and speechless. Only Wen Xu frowned and thought deeply.
"If you don't know the answer, you can make a proper guess. Maybe you're lucky and you get it right!" the host advised.
Xu Baichuan glanced at Wen Xu, shook his head and said, "Forget it! Even if you get this question right, you still won't win. I'd better beat them in the play-offs."
"Xu Baichuan is really arrogant!" Gu Anyue said with a frown.
A strange arc flashed at the corner of Wen Xu's mouth, and he whispered to Gu Anyue: "Do you think Xu Baichuan gave up on this question just because he was crazy?"
"Is there anything hidden?" Gu Anyue asked Wen Xu.
Wen Xu touched his nose, narrowed his eyes and explained to Gu Anyue: "Let me ask you first, if you were asked to answer this question, how confident are you that you can choose the correct answer?"
Gu Anyue shook her head and said: "This question is very difficult. I'm not sure at all."
"That's right. You are not sure, and Xu Baichuan and the others are not sure either," Wen Xu said.
"You can guess! Anyway, the probability of answering the question correctly is still 25%, and if they don't answer it correctly, they won't lose. I can't understand why Xu Baichuan and the others just gave up." Gu Anyue opened her eyes and looked at them.
Wen Xu said.
"This is their brilliance." Wen Xu explained, "If they don't answer the questions, it will inevitably attract us to think about the reasons and prevent us from focusing on the game. At that time, as long as we are not paying attention, Xu Baichuan will give up.
Use your trump card to beat us in the play-offs."
After listening to Wen Xu's words, Gu Anyue seemed to understand Xu Baichuan's intention. The quick-answer questions were no different from other questions. As long as you didn't pay attention when answering, you would lose the qualification to answer. Xu Baichuan distracted himself, of course for him
There are benefits.
"In addition, I think Xu Baichuan wanted to beat us into submission, which is also one of the reasons why they gave up answering questions." Wen Xu paused and then said, "Of course, this is just my guess. The real reason is probably only
They themselves know it. Since they gave us the opportunity, we should not waste this opportunity to turn defeat into victory."
Gu Anyue nodded slightly, expressing her agreement with Wen Xu.
Since the points between Xu Baichuan's group and Wen Xu's group were tied, the game had to enter the play-offs.
The host asked the leaders participating in the competition for instructions, and returned to the stage with a piece of paper: "I have a piece of paper in my hand. This is the question for the play-off round. Let me explain first, this is not a quick answer question. You will all have it.
You will have the opportunity to answer, but the order of answering the questions will be determined by the rush to answer. Whoever gets the answer first can choose the order of answering the questions. Now please prepare, I say 'start rushing to answer', and you can rush to answer."
"Start answering!" the host ordered, and the two answering lights almost came on, but the host finally decided that Xu Baichuan was faster.
"Classmate Xu Baichuan, now it's up to you to decide the order of answering questions." The host said to Xu Baichuan.
People present thought that Xu Baichuan would let Wen Xu answer first, but Xu Baichuan said, "I'll go first!"
"OK!" The host showed the paper with the title in front of everyone. It read in English: What do you think of Chinese people learning English?
This is undoubtedly an open question, and there is no absolutely accurate answer. The final scoring results are only in the hands of the following leaders.
Xu Baichuan pondered his views and expressed them to the audience: "First of all, I want to say that it is necessary for Chinese people to learn English."
Xu Baichuan made his point clear, and several leaders in the audience nodded unanimously.
Then, Xu Baichuan began to explain his views.
"More than 90% of the world's modern scientific and technological documents are written in English. In fact, English can be called a 'golden key' to open the world's treasure house of modern scientific and technological documents. For a Chinese, it is important to learn as early as possible
Mastering English well first means that he can receive the best education in the world as early as possible. Because once you master English, you can learn and develop with the best books and periodicals and other educational resources published in various countries around the world."
Seeing the leaders below nodding, Xu Baichuan knew that his point of view was recognized by them, "In addition to this reason, applying what we have learned is also another reason. When studying abroad, taking exams, and communicating with foreigners, we all have to use English.
What's more, learning English can also lead to the great development of related education, training, publishing and other institutions, bringing a market of hundreds of billions, expanding 'domestic demand', and promoting the employment of a large number of people. Therefore, I think China
It is still necessary for people to learn English. As for those 'English is useless', I think it is just some people making excuses for not working hard to learn English. That's all I have to say, thank you!"
It is definitely not an easy task to say these clear words in such a short period of time. The leaders present all expressed their approval of Xu Baichuan's speech. The final pressure could not help but fall on Wen Xu.
The leaders had already preconceivedly accepted Xu Baichuan's ideas. If Wen Xu followed Xu Baichuan's ideas, it would be difficult to succeed, so Wen Xu decided to take the risk and find another way.
Wen Xu cleared his throat, scanned the audience below, and said slowly: "Just now, classmate Xu Baichuan expounded on the importance of learning English, but I think that although learning English has some benefits, learning English for all people is more beneficial than anything else.
Disadvantages. First of all, learning English is a waste of time and money. English and Chinese are two languages of different language families, and it is quite difficult to learn. However, due to the pursuit of the government and society, English has been promoted to a very high position, such as employment, further education and other aspects of life.
The most important things are all related to one's English proficiency, which has led to the trend of all students learning English, but no one pays attention to professional courses. If this continues, it will create a large number of people who only know a little bit.
I don’t know if it’s worth it for a college student who doesn’t know English well, forgets it after taking the exam, and doesn’t take many professional courses.”
Wen Xu glanced at the disapproving leader and continued: "Just now, Xu Baichuan said that English can stimulate 'domestic demand' and promote economic development. But I want to say, wouldn't it be better to invest these manpower and funds in other places?
In addition to those who engage in private English training, the state also spends a lot of money every year to teach English to children across the country. In fact, students need to learn a lot of knowledge, and this poor education funding is far from what the rich
There is no place to use it. The people's money can be regarded as given to the country, but what is the result of the whole country's concerted efforts? It is to cultivate a large number of farmers who know a few English words and can only say "love"
"Tiger oil" netizens and unemployed vagrants who can only understand bye-bye! Of course, not all of them are that bad at studying, but the few students who study well are almost all technical idiots who don't know any majors. According to my evaluation
To put it simply, 'I know what the foreigner means, but I can't express it well in Chinese'. I'm afraid these people who are better at English than Chinese are of little use to the country and the family, right? Spend money to train them.
The above series of talents...do you think it is a loss of wealth?"
As soon as Wen Xu finished speaking, an audience member in the audience couldn't help but applaud. Then, others followed suit, and waves of louder applause suddenly filled the entire competition venue.
Some leaders in the audience couldn't stand it. One leader next to Liu Chang asked him with a face: "Is this a student from your school?"
Liu Chang wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly bowed to the leader: "Director Zhao, this is because we have failed to teach properly. After I go back, I will... I will handle this matter seriously and give you an explanation.
.”
After hearing Liu Chang's words, Director Zhao's expression became a little better, and he snorted to Liu Chang: "Such unruly students must be dealt with, but be careful of the impact and not expand the negative impact.
"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Liu Chang agreed quickly, looking at Wen Xu with a vicious look in his eyes.
"Hey, today's students..." Director Zhao shook his head helplessly and sighed sadly.
