I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 61 The battle between Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun!
For the next three days, both of them had a more fulfilling life. Qin Ke taught Ning Qingyun the Mathematical Olympiad in the morning, and Ning Qingyun taught Qin Ke English in the afternoon.

It's just that Qin Ke's Mathematical Olympiad courses are more intensive, and the difficulty is constantly increasing, even expanding from the difficulty of the provincial semi-finals to the difficulty of the quasi-national competition. Ning Qingyun often has to listen to it two or three times to fully understand, but Qin Ke can't understand it. Very patient.

If Ning Qingyun can go to the national competition, not only will she be happy, but Qin Ke will also have a legitimate reason to continue to maintain such a state of mutual support and learning.

On the other hand, Ning Qingyun was more careful when explaining English to Qin Ke. She taught Qin Ke all her years of test-taking experience, especially for Qin Ke's worst oral English. Qin Ke will let Qin Ke observe the mouth shape of her pronunciation, and correct the substandard pronunciation through imitation.

It's just that Qin Ke, as a normal male high school student, will inevitably feel a little eager to move when he sees the girl's pink and seductive lips opening and closing, as well as the lilac uvula that is exposed from time to time.

Fortunately, he has always been rational and has good acting skills, and he has always maintained the appearance of a simple student who is serious about studying and has no distractions, which did not arouse Ning Qingyun's vigilance.

The two still never went to the cafeteria to eat together, and they rarely appeared in front of people together.

If there was anything different from before, it was that when the two of them were walking in the old art room together, they had more topics to talk about, and Ning Qingyun slowly showed more and more smiles in front of Qin Ke.

……

However, Wen Jianzhao, the vice principal of Yingyuan High School, was not in a good mood.

In the office, he put down the phone and said helplessly:
"Teacher Zheng, the news is confirmed. The Provincial Olympic Committee has just issued a notice. This time, the provincial competition will be the same as the city competition. Additional papers will be added. There are two additional questions in it, which are difficult for the national competition. One question is worth [-] points, and the number of questions in the main paper will also increase. There are a total of ten major questions, each with [-] points, and the total score is still [-] points."

Lao Zheng, who had been anxiously waiting for the news, suddenly turned ugly.

The original provincial test had only five major questions, not to mention no additional questions, because at the provincial level, the degree of difficulty was completely different from that of the city test.

But now it has been increased to ten questions all of a sudden, and there are two additional questions that are difficult for the national competition, which is simply outrageous!

Especially the difficulty of the national competition. There are only 100 high school students in the country who are eligible to enter the national competition. However, the top mathematics students who stand out among the national high school students will never solve more than two problems in the national competition.

Of course, the question is difficult, but it is fair to all the students who participated in the provincial competition. After all, everyone is doing the same paper, and if you want to score low, everyone will get a low score together.

But the news from Chengkong High School was the main reason why Wen Jianzhao and Lao Zheng frowned.

I heard that Cheng Kong fought to save face in the provincial competition this time in order to avenge his shame. On Monday, he specially spent a lot of money to hire three gold medal lecturers from the capital who specialize in tutoring candidates for the National Mathematical Olympiad. , No.4's Chen Hanyin and Hong Xingwei for special training.

I heard that the three gold medal lecturers have studied the national competition questions for a long time, and they have rich experience in solving problems.

Chen Hanyin and Hong Xingwei were second and No.3 in the provincial competition last year. They are quite experienced in how to solve the difficult problems of the provincial competition. This time, they will receive special training for the national competition. Their strength will undoubtedly increase greatly.

At that time, as long as one of the two additional questions is solved, the winning rate will increase dramatically.

Wen Jianzhao said angrily: "The news that the provincial competition will add additional questions to the national competition only first appeared on Monday afternoon, and it was confirmed through the group meeting of the question group on Wednesday. I didn't expect that Chengkong's news would be so well-informed and so daring. Bet, I contacted those three gold medal lecturers on Monday night, arranged a special plane overnight, and started special training for Chen Hanyin and Hong Xingwei from Tuesday afternoon."

Old Zheng nodded bitterly, but didn't respond.

He has once again seen Chengkong's vigorous and aggressive behavior. It is said that behind this private high school there is a big consortium, and they are not short of money. Chengkong is their first step in the education field. He attached great importance to it, fully supported it, and invested a huge amount of money.

At least Yingyuan's board of directors can't match Chengkong's in terms of financial resources and speed of response.

"Ms. Zheng, what is the math teacher in our school's experience with national competitions?"

Lao Zheng shook his head and said: "The last time I led a team to participate in the national competition was ten years ago. The types of questions and skills have changed too fast over the years, and my experience may be outdated. I originally thought that if Qin Ke could even pass the provincial competition Entering the national competition, there are still almost two months to prepare for the battle... I am willing to take full responsibility for the mistakes I made this time."

In fact, Wen Jianzhao, who is in charge of teaching science, didn't know about it?Yingyuan's results in the Olympiad have declined year after year in the past ten years. In recent years, it has been difficult to even enter the provincial competition, let alone prepare for the national competition.

It is not surprising that Yingyuan High School mathematics teacher's experience in national competitions has become backward and outdated.

"I don't blame you for this matter. In the final analysis, it is the responsibility of our board of directors. We have been burdened with reforms for years, but we don't have the courage and means like Chengkong..."

Speaking of this, Wen Jianzhao sighed: "As much as we can do now, at least we can get the first and second place in the city competition. We have an account to the board of directors."

Saying this, Wen Jianzhao felt uncomfortable when he thought that the provincial competition would most likely be slapped in the face by Chengkong. When Chengkong's big red banner was hung, the momentum and advantages that Yingyuan had built up with great difficulty would be wiped out. no deposit.

Sometimes the competition between schools is like the academic competition among students. If you don’t advance, you will retreat. There is no other way.

Old Zheng got up and said: "I still have some materials for the national competition on hand. I will prepare them as soon as possible and show them to Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun. However, from the perspective of test-taking strategies, I still plan to suggest that they should give priority to completing the tenth part of the main paper." Dao questions. The national competition is too difficult, if you lack sufficient problem-solving skills and problem-solving strategies, it will only be a waste of time to delve into it in just three days, and it will be counterproductive."

Wen Jianzhao also nodded in approval: "Okay, I will do as you said. I will also notify the other math teachers to assist you as soon as possible, and then contact my friends in the capital to provide them with the latest national competition information. At least they can contact one or two , you won’t be caught off guard by then.”

……

In the afternoon, Lao Zheng came to the old art room and told Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun about the addition of five major questions in the provincial competition and two additional difficult questions in the national competition, as well as his own suggestions.

To his surprise, Ning Qingyun showed worry, but Qin Ke just said "oh" lightly, picked up the national competition materials brought by Lao Zheng and flipped through them. They were all old-fashioned question types, which were relatively old. Seeing that the gap provided by the system in his mind was far away, he pushed it back.

"Teacher Zheng, you can take these materials back, we don't need them."

Old Zheng also thought that Qin Ke was going to accept his suggestion, give up the additional questions of the national competition, and focus on the ten major questions of the main paper, so he nodded and said:
"Okay. I'll bring it back when Principal Wen gets the latest question types for the national competition. Just take a look and understand one or two. If you have spare time during the exam, try to solve the two additional questions. How many steps can be written counts how many steps, there are steps."

Qin Ke smiled and didn't answer, but said: "By the way, Teacher Zheng, the school committee and I will continue to stay here to study the Mathematical Olympiad in the evening self-study. Please tell our class teacher."

"Okay, if you need any help from our teacher, feel free to ask us." Lao Zheng didn't talk nonsense, and left after finishing what he had to say.

As soon as Lao Zheng left, Ning Qingyun bit her red lips lightly, and said worriedly: "This provincial competition is so difficult, we..."

"Well, it's really troublesome. I have to modify my teaching plan. The school committee, it will be more difficult next time. Can you hold on? As long as you can hold on, I will definitely take you to the national competition! "

Ning Qingyun raised her head unexpectedly, and seeing Qin Ke's confident expression, strength surged in her heart somehow, she nodded firmly and said, "I can."

"Okay, until Sunday, you don't have to teach me English anymore. I will do my best to help you improve your Mathematical Olympiad skills. From eight o'clock in the morning to ten o'clock in the evening, you have to stay here almost all the time, listening to my lectures, It will be very hard to do the sample questions I gave you, are you sure you can endure it?"

Ning Qingjun clenched her small fist and said firmly again: "Yes!"

"Okay, let's start our 'battle', goal, get to the national competition!"

In the next three days, Ning Qingyun finally realized why Qin Ke repeatedly emphasized to her that it would be very hard.

The difficulty and intensity of Qin Ke's courses are increasing day by day, and the problem-solving skills are becoming more and more complicated. Sometimes, more than a dozen problem-solving methods such as construction method, counter-evidence method, assignment method, and induction method are used in combination.

Rao Ning Qingyun is also a very smart girl, with a very solid basic knowledge of mathematics, but she still learns very painfully. Sometimes she feels her brain buzzing, as if being pricked by needles - that is the result of overuse of her brain.

Qin Ke is simply a devil instructor this time, and he doesn't feel any sympathy for her because she is a girl. The course is getting tighter and tighter.

Except for the 10-minute indoor walk once an hour, Ning Qingyun hardly left her seat. Even Qin Ke went to the cafeteria to call back three meals for her. Ning Qingyun listened to his lectures while eating.

This little cleanliness girl used to have to brush her teeth after every meal, but in the past three days, Qin Ke forced her to not even notice the rice sticking to the corner of her mouth until Qin Ke casually stretched out his fingers and wiped the rice from her mouth. When he was going to eat rice, he blushed and gave that nasty guy a hard look, then hurried to the bathroom to rinse his mouth and tidy up his appearance.

However, although Qin Ke's course schedule was tight and he didn't have the usual hippie smile during lectures, his expression was serious but not harsh, he kept speaking at a leisurely pace, and he was extremely patient, never showing any signs of impatience. It didn't put any extra pressure on Ning Qingyun.

More importantly, the results of hard work are remarkable.

Whenever she fully digested and understood what Qin Ke taught and did the exercises Qin Ke gave, Ning Qingyun felt reborn, and could clearly know that her Olympiad level was improving rapidly.

Ning Qingyun had to marvel and admire from the bottom of her heart, where did my deskmate have such a wealth of knowledge, skills and experience in Mathematical Olympiad?

For the first time, this high school girl, who is used to being looked up to by others, really looks up to a boy from her heart, and the figure of this boy is getting bigger and bigger in her heart.

……

If you ask Ning Qingyun, what else is worth remembering during these three days of depressing study, it is probably the memories of Qin Ke racking his brains to tell her jokes, make her laugh, and relax her mind during the hourly indoor walks up.

Sometimes Ning Qingyun looked at Qin Ke's expression, and laughed out loud before he even finished telling the joke.

Qin Ke always said that her laughing point was too low, and only Ning Qingyun knew that she was not laughing because of a joke, but because there was such a person, just for a promise, an agreement, so painstakingly teased her. She was happy so that she could follow behind him, run faster and farther...

For a girl like her who has never had a friend to accompany her, no matter whether she admits it or not, this tablemate who looks naughty but is extremely reliable has become an important friend she cannot ignore.

So on the third day, Ning Qingjun was able to take off her cold mask in front of Qin Ke, revealing a simple and happy smile.

It's just that whenever he saw himself smiling wantonly from his clear eyes, Ning Qingyun would feel flustered for no reason...

During the period, Lao Zheng and other math teachers and even Vice President Wen had visited them, but Qin Ke waved them away before they walked in the door—he couldn't let these people interrupt Ning Qingyun's thinking about the problem.

But Lao Zheng and the others saw the two of them preparing for the provincial competition so seriously, they could feel the awe-inspiring and tense atmosphere even when they were standing at the door, and gradually they didn't dare to disturb them anymore.

……

The three days passed quickly in a hurry.

The pace of time has entered Saturday.

The next day was the provincial exam, but until after ten o'clock in the evening, Qin Ke was still leading Ning Qingyun in the final sprint before the exam.

After talking about the last big topic, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun recovered from their concentrated lecture and study, and found that there was a dense sound of raindrops coming from the glass window outside, and the rain was dripping on the glass. Converged into a trickle, then meandering and sliding down, leaving a trail of water marks.

It turned out that at some point, the autumn rain began to fall outside.

The silence in the old art room made the sound of the rain very obvious, but the two of them didn't notice it, so they thought how focused they were on teaching and learning just now.

Thinking of this at the same time, the two couldn't help but smile at each other.

Qin Ke got up and stretched: "Let's stop here for today. Tomorrow, I believe that as long as you take the challenge calmly, you will definitely get good grades! Come on, school committee, my No.1 is waiting for you to challenge. "

Ning Qingyun pursed her lips and chuckled, her eyes shifted: "Arrogant, you booked No.1 before the exam?"

"Necessary, I have to get No.1 no matter what!" Qin Ke glanced at the tasks in the system interface, and said with a smile: "Okay, let me see if it's raining hard, if I remember correctly, behind the door I put an old umbrella, I don't know who left it, we just used it."

Qin Ke walked into the corridor outside the door, only to see the raindrops falling all over the sky, and the outside scenery was all hazy. Even if his eyes got the night vision ability when the system was attached, he could only vaguely see the nearby dim The street lights gradually became blurred and dim along the school road, and finally disappeared into the rainy night in the distance.

He looked at the time on his watch, and it was less than 10 minutes before the girls' dormitory closed.
