Chapter 32 Maybe you never know why the exam is so difficult
At 1:30 noon, the paper closing bell rang, the four and a half hour second half officially ended, and the CMO national final exam officially ended.
Xu Chuan and Gong Rihui were waiting in the training room, waiting for the other candidates from southern Hunan to return.
In this regard, the Shonan Training Team did a better job. No matter whether I knew the questions or not, I had to persevere until the last second.
Maybe inspiration will come to you in the last few minutes?
However, if you know something like mathematics, you will know it, and if you don't know it, you will not know it. Even if you force a person to grow wings and fly into the sky, he may not be able to solve math problems that he does not know.
"Teacher Gong, I'm going to die, I'm going to die, the second half of this national final is so difficult, I don't even have time to check."
Outside the training room, I didn't see him, but I heard his voice first, and the noisy voice of Lu Tianrui, a little round-faced man, rang out.
"Oh, you've finished everything. I haven't even finished the questions."
"The first question was too difficult, so I solved the first question."
Suddenly, a marking teacher shouted in surprise, which aroused the curiosity of other judges.
Several minutes passed before Zhang Weiping came back to his senses and sighed.
A top mathematician, an academician of the Academy of Sciences with extremely high achievements in geometry, came to pose a problem to a group of students whose average age was less than 18 years old, and he had the nerve to say that it was not difficult.
"I estimate that this year's national finals will be scored at least fifty points."
Within the Mathematical Society, the six professors who participated in setting the question and four other directors recruited from the board of directors worked together to conduct the marking.
Hearing this, Zhang Weiping was immediately discouraged.
"This class of students is not good. The first half was a little better, but I saw several blank papers in the second half. Alas."
"I'll probably give it thirty or forty points."
Ten people, with an average of 40 test papers per person, have to read them all in a day and a half, which is very energy-consuming.
As for Xu Chuan, that’s another matter
Since the provincial training camp, he has never seen this student as an ordinary student. From his perspective, Xu Chuan's mathematical ability is definitely professional-level, and may be on par with him, a professional mathematics teacher.
"The first half was fine, but in the second half everyone was numb."
Zhang Weiping glanced sideways at the directors of the question group and said unconvinced: "A perfect score in the second half does not mean a perfect score in the first half."
Different paths lead to the same goal, just like Xu Chuan used calculus to do analytic geometry when he was on the school training team.
Moreover, they have already reviewed yesterday's test papers today, and there are quite a few who got full marks.
"Are you sorry? It will take me at least an hour to do the geometry question in the second half."
"Lao Zhang, you made a mistake. It seems that there is a perfect player this time."
"That is, touch your own conscience and ask it if you believe it?"
"Brother Chuan, you handed in the paper in advance again, you are such a pervert! You can hand in such a difficult question in advance!"
"Huh? This student is pretty good. He solved all the first questions in the second half, and he solved them all correctly, with correct steps and correct answers."
"I looked at the back and saw that he had finished the last two big questions and the answers were correct."
"I'm going to Juchun Garden to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and braised shark's fin!"
After all, this is a national mathematics competition. Although there is only one standard answer to a question, many candidates may use different problem-solving methods and ideas to solve the question.
After entering the training room, Lu Tianrui immediately saw Xu Chuan standing next to teacher Gong Rihui, and he suddenly had a look of resentment on his face.
He reluctantly finished all the questions. He didn't even have time to check. He didn't know what was right or wrong. However, this pervert still handed in the papers in advance. This was really shocking.
The difficulty of this year's CMO national finals questions is obvious to everyone, especially the second geometry question. It is not an exaggeration to say that the difficulty is the first among all geometry questions in the past year.
Accompanied by Lu Tianrui's voice, there were also the voices of other students from southern Hunan, and immediately, a group of people appeared in the training room.
"Stop talking, I only answered the first two questions of the next two big questions. Why is it so difficult for me to be like this in the second half of this year?"
"There are so many talented people in this generation."
The national finals of the number competition are over, and the grading work is in full swing.
However, after handing in the paper in advance, he and teacher Gong Rihui wrote out the questions and answers, which made it easier for his teammates to check.
"Is it difficult? I don't think so." Zhang Weiping retorted, pushing his eyes on the bridge of his nose.
"Not bad, indeed good. This student got full marks in the second half."
"Isn't it just a meal? You are really making things difficult for these students."
"I took a look and found that this year's average score may be less than sixty."
Gong Rihui smiled and comforted everyone in the room. The exam had already been completed and no matter how harsh it was, it was of no use.
In the marking group, Academician Zhang Weiping, professor of geometry question writing, shook his head and put a zero on the white paper in his hand, and then sighed.
"That's right, the questions in the second half were originally from Paper A, but you ended up brushing off all three questions in Paper A."
Several judges who came to watch also expressed their praise.
Hearing this, all the people in the marking classroom rolled their eyes.
"Hahahaha, Lao Zhang, it seems you owe us a meal each."
"Let me see, let me see."
Judging from the performance of candidates in previous years, there may not be a single perfect score this year. When a perfect scorer suddenly appears, everyone is surprised.
Indeed, he didn't even believe it when he said it. This student had solved all three of the most difficult questions in the second half. It was absolutely correct and he received full marks. There was no reason why he couldn't solve the easier questions in the first half yesterday.
"This year's questions are indeed a bit difficult, but everyone just needs to try their best."
Xu Chuan glanced at the small round face and did not answer. If this was a quarrel, it would probably be endless.
For every marking, the marking teacher must carefully check the students' answers.
Especially the plane geometry problem, it took him nearly an hour to solve it.
"Oh, do you believe this?"
"Lao Zhang, have you ever thought that maybe it's not that the students are bad, but that the questions you asked are too difficult?"
Grabbing the test paper from another marking teacher, Zhang Weiping couldn't wait to review it.
The judges who were reviewing the papers all raised their heads.
Moreover, after Xu Chuan came out, he copied the questions and showed them to him. The questions in the second half were indeed quite difficult. It was really difficult for these students to solve them all in four and a half hours.
On the side, when he heard that someone had completely solved the second geometry he had created, Zhang Weiping couldn't hold himself back any longer. He put down the answer sheet in his hand and walked over.
"Look at the sky! I'm about the same."
"If I had known the questions earlier, I would have made them more difficult. I really suffered a big loss this time."
Zhang Weiping muttered something, returned the answer sheet in his hand, and went back to marking it.
So you may never know why the questions in this competition or college entrance examination are so difficult.
Maybe this is just a bet between a certain teacher in the question-writing team and others.
