"The time is up, everyone, put down your pens." When the time was up, Tom clapped his hands and collected all the test papers for the little wizards.
The audience became agitated for a while, and many young wizards whispered to each other. Ron also turned to Harry and said: "Harry, what do you think? I think the question is okay, but I am not sure about the werewolf question. Silverware
Restrain werewolves?"
"It doesn't seem to work, right? I remember that fresh wounds from werewolf bites can be healed by the mixture of silver powder and white blood, but there seems to be no record saying that werewolves are afraid of silver..." Neville, who was sitting in front, also turned around
I turned my head and participated in the discussion. It can be seen that these questions are indeed a bit like common sense quizzes for young wizards from wizard families.
"There is such a saying in the non-magical world, and they also think that vampires are also restrained by silverware and birch wood." Harry said somewhat gloomily.
"Oh? Is that so?" Ron judged, "Then maybe you shouldn't choose that option. But this is all over, we can just wait for the results to come out."
Ron regained his optimism, and began to complain about Lockhart in a low voice, "Really, since my parents' generation, there has never been a professor who took the exam in the first class of school. I think Lockhart
This is probably the first time in the entire history of Hogwarts."
Neville comforted Harry. He could see that Harry's results this time were probably not ideal.
In the front row, Hermione was also discussing the answers to the questions with her friends.
"Let me think about it. The first question is A and C. The famous dark wizard is Grindelwald, not Grindylow. They like to eat fish but occasionally attack humans who fall into the water. The second question is A and C.
D, there is a huge difference between a werewolf and a wolf, almost like the difference between mercury and silver, and the werewolf's rating is five stars, which is extremely dangerous..."
"Eh?" "Ah!" "Oh!"
Such sounds kept ringing around Hermione.
"Hermione, you know so much!" Lisa Dupin sighed.
Lisa's compliment made Hermione's cheeks flush: "It's nothing, I'm just studying hard -"
"Okay, kids," Tom, dressed as Lockhart, collected the test papers, arranged them on the podium and clapped his hands, "I believe that some people's results in this exam may not be very satisfactory, but I
The tests are all about common sense! They are all scored questions. If you don’t even know these things, then you should reflect on whether you have read too few books.”
Tom paused and glanced at the faces of several little wizards who had their heads lowered. "But it's not too late to read a book now. I asked you to buy a few of my books before the start of school, although there are some added ones for literary reasons.
A lot of flowery words, but the authenticity of the story is unquestionable, and it will do you good to read these books."
"I heard that some students often use their spare time to go to the library to read books after class. I think you should learn from her - if you also go to the library often, you won't be able to pass the surprise exam.
Not even here." Tom's eyes fell on Hermione, making Hermione blush deeply.
She could feel that other people were looking at her, but she also felt that the way Professor Lockhart looked at her seemed a little strange? And some of his little movements and tone of voice really sounded familiar...
"In order to encourage Hermione's studious spirit, I decided to add ten points to Ravenclaw."
Hermione's eyes widened in surprise: this was the first time she had been given extra points for loving going to the library.
After Tom used up the extra points for this class, he took out a copy of "Wandering with Werewolves" from under the podium, and he put the book on the lecture table.
"Today's homework is," he paused, waiting for the lamentations of the little wizards to pass, "to read the first three chapters of the book "Wandering with Werewolves". Students who have already finished reading can continue reading.
.”
The little wizards breathed a sigh of relief: at least today's homework was easy.
Tom suddenly remembered that he hadn't told them about the final exam scores yet, but he decided to talk about it in the next class - surprises should be kept for a few more days.
Tom put away his things and prepared to leave get out of class early. Before leaving, he looked at everyone and said with a smile: "But don't worry if you don't do well in the exam. This exam will not account for a high proportion in the final exam..."
Little wizards: Yeah!
"...because there are usually a lot of quizzes."
Little wizards:......
"Okay, get out of class is over!" Tom quickly left the classroom with his handbag, running as fast as a water class professor in a university. He left behind a room full of little wizards with wide-eyed expressions: their expressions were all desperate.
Very, many, quizzes! These three words are despairing.
Although these questions are not difficult, they are also very irritating. As for a young wizard like Harry, he looked hopeless. Harry even felt that he had failed the course.
The thoughts of the little wizards have nothing to do with Tom. At this time, he was walking happily in the corridor. He didn't expect that being a teacher felt so good, and Tom was even a little addicted.
At this time, Professor McGonagall happened to be passing by.
"Hello, Professor McGonagall!"
"Hello, Gerald." Although Professor McGonagall hated to see Lockhart, he was his colleague after all, and he took the initiative to say hello to her. So she couldn't ignore him and could only bite the bullet.
respond to him.
"Do you have classes for a while? I won't disturb you then." Tom showed a bright smile and raised the paper in his hand towards Professor McGonagall, "I have to correct my homework quickly."
"Um, ah, yes?!" Professor McGonagall had originally planned to automatically filter out Lockhart's nonsense, but she didn't expect Lockhart to leave without saying anything this time.
"Please wait a minute, what is that in your hand?" Professor McGonagall saw the test paper in Tom's hand and was a little confused: Will the paper be collected on the first day of school? Or is he asking students to write something in class?
Already?
"It's an exam paper."
Professor McGonagall:???
"In order to find out the level of the students, I gave them a set of test papers for them to take, and I went back to correct them. This was the inspiration given to me by Professor Snape!"
Professor McGonagall:!
She suddenly felt that this idea seemed good. She immediately wanted to learn from it, but she also began to think: She was teaching transfiguration, how could she improve this idea?
When Tom saw that Professor McGonagall had no intention of continuing to reply, he walked towards the office. He would have classes soon.
However, one advantage of being a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is that one thing can be taught to seven grades, and the teaching content is rich, colorful and ever-changing.
Professors in other subjects have taught for more than ten years or even decades, and have long formed a fixed teaching system, such as Professor McGonagall's cat transformation and Snape's quizzes. These little hobbies are actually harmless. The key is
Their teaching is progressive, and the content of each grade is different. If a new professor comes, he will need to prepare seven lessons and seven sets of questions...
Defense Against the Dark Arts is different. The professors change every year, so they have no system and the teaching is very confusing. Students mainly rely on understanding and self-study. Little Crouch, the whole school teaches the Unforgivable Curse in the first lesson of the semester.
There wasn't any problem - the new professor just burned incense and chanted Buddha's name when he could teach normally, and he also asked for a bicycle!
Tom left, leaving behind a classroom of desperate little wizards, and this despair was quickly passed on, especially when everyone was eating together in the auditorium at noon, if you listen carefully to the topics of the little wizards, there are three high-frequency
Words: Defense Against the Dark Arts, Lockhart, Scored Exam.
From seventh-grade graduates to first-grade freshmen, no one can hide away and no one can stay out of it!
The effect of this large-scale AOE is amazing. The students who took the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the morning became popular. If it weren't for the fact that the professors were all sitting on the faculty bench, the auditorium would have become a chaotic market.
However, the students from the two colleges kept talking and whispering to each other, not even bothering to eat the delicious food in front of them.
"Granger, do you still remember the exam this morning?"
"Hermione, do you have the answers to this morning's exam?"
"Hermione, the answer -"
Many students have set their sights on Hermione, a well-known academic master. She is a participant in the exam and is a super academic master. Her answers are basically the standard answers.
Hermione was very embarrassed: this behavior was undoubtedly cheating and would cause great unfairness, but there were too many people asking.
Tom could see it clearly on the podium, so he took out a piece of paper and wrote a line of words on it. Then he pulled out his wand and the paper turned into a beetle. Then he and Foli, who was sitting next to him,
Professor Wei whispered a few words, and Professor Flitwick showed a happy smile. He nodded and cast a spell on the beetle.
The beetle quickly crawled towards Hermione.
This little move attracted Professor Sprout's attention.
"What are you discussing? You are smiling so happily." She asked her old colleague Professor Flitwick. As for Lockhart, she didn't want to talk to this person for the time being: Lockhart drove a flying car and crashed
Injuring the school's ancient tree, the Whomping Willow, made her very distressed, and she ultimately completed the treatment of the Whomping Willow alone.
"Professor Lockhart gave the students a small test this morning. It seems that the other students are very interested in the test content." Professor Flitwick looked up at Professor Sprout and said.
"This is cheating!" Professor McGonagall next to him became furious after hearing this. "How can these people in the audience know the content of the exam in advance? I will-"
But Tom and Flitwick stopped her together.
"Nothing, let them know the answer, it's not a big problem." Tom looked at the little wizards in the audience and showed a kind smile.
