Genius Girlfriend

Spring begins in March, the temperature picks up, the campus is full of green grass, and peaches and plums are beginning to flourish.

For students in the competition class, "March" means challenge and opportunity.

The preliminary round of the 2006 National Junior High School Mathematical League was held in mid-March. The exam lasts two hours and the competition is fierce. Only 10% of the candidates can enter the semi-finals.

On the day of the preliminary match, Jiang Yubai's uncle drove his nephew to school in person.

Jiang Yubai didn’t say anything, but his uncle became nervous first: "Xiaojiang, you just entered the first year of junior high school, and you have skipped two levels. For this kind of national-level exam, you have to treat it with a normal heart, even if you take the It doesn’t matter. Your uncle didn’t succeed in my first interview with the symphony orchestra. I was not discouraged. Step by step, I got to the position of chief violinist. Xiao Jiang, gold always shines..."

Jiang Yubai interrupted his uncle: "If I fail the exam today, I will compete next year."

The uncle parked his Porsche on the side of the road. He held the steering wheel and turned to look at Jiang Yubai: "Okay, Xiao Jiang, come on! Although your IQ is not 174, you are a little genius in Uncle's heart."

Jiang Yubai clenched his fists with both hands: "Yeah!"

Jiang Yubai got out of the car vigorously, and his uncle watched his nephew leave.

Outside the school gate of Provincial No. 1 Middle School, there was noisy noise and crowds of people. Lin Zhixia ran through the crowd and ran to Jiang Yubai's side. She only carried a small satchel, which contained the admission ticket, bus card, phone card, and a pen.

She opened the zipper of the small bag and took out the admission ticket. Jiang Yubai asked her immediately: "Did you not bring the stationery box?"

Lin Zhixia said: "It's okay, I don't need a stationery box."

Jiang Yubai reminded: "There should be at least a set of compasses and rulers."

Jiang Yubai values ​​the national league very much. He made full preparations and brought two sets of stationery, which really came in handy. He put down his schoolbag, found the two sets of stationery, and gave the one with the most complete equipment to Lin Zhixia.

Lin Zhixia did not decline. She took a step forward and said: "Jiang Yubai, you are so kind." The tone was lighter than usual, not as if she was talking to him specifically, but as if she was talking to herself.

"It's nothing," Jiang Yubai responded calmly, "It's a trivial matter, don't thank me."

Lin Zhixia jumped on the spot: "Before, I thought that what you said was different from what you thought in your heart. Now I have a new perspective. Jiang Yubai, you are very kind to your friends and do not ask for anything in return. Don't even ask for'thank you'."

She stretched out her hand, pointed to the distance, and exclaimed softly: "Jiang Yubai is like a diamond in the sky, bright and dazzling, I can see it as soon as I open my eyes."

Lin Zhixia's simple metaphor made Jiang Yubai freeze in place. He just gave away a set of stationery, why did he get such a lofty evaluation?

Jiang Yubai almost completely forgot that Lin Zhixia was his competitor.

"To defeat Lin Zhixia" was originally a wish of Jiang Yubai. This wish was once deeply rooted in his heart. But he has to admit that his sense of competition inspired by Lin Zhixia is quietly passing day after day.

Jiang Yubai was immersed in self-analysis, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder. He looked aside and saw Duan Qiyan with a solemn expression. Duan Qiyan carried his schoolbag on one shoulder and asked as he walked: "Lin Zhixia, Jiang Yubai, can you get the first prize?"

After the "lock picking storm" of this winter vacation ended, Duan Qiyan never provoked his classmates again. He lost his former arrogance. Because he discovered that since entering junior high school, he is no longer the number one God of War, and has simply become the number one **** of decline.

The "First God of War" in the Provincial No. 1 Middle School should be Lin Zhixia, who is invincible.

Lin Zhixia said confidently: "The junior high school league is not difficult, and I will get the first prize."

Neither Jiang Yubai nor Duan Qiyan felt the slightest disturbance in their hearts.

"For you, the junior high school league is very simple." Duan Qiyan tentatively said.

Lin Zhixia answered modestly: "It's okay."

Duan Qiyan asked again: "Hey, what time do you learn to sleep every night?"

Lin Zhixia said honestly: "Before nine o'clock."

Jiang Yubai's answer was more precise: "At half past eight."

Duan Qiyan's breathing stagnated. He always insisted on going to bed until ten thirty at night. He thought he was a bit lazy, but he did not expect Lin Zhixia and Jiang Yubai to go to bed earlier than him.

He heard that Jin Baihui from Class 18 stayed up until midnight every night.

Lin Zhixia learns like a bastard, and he can stay first in the grade. How strong can she become if she works hard like Jin Baihui?

In order to stimulate Lin Zhixia's potential, Duan Qiyan mentioned a senior at the Provincial No. 1 High School. The senior won the first prize of the National Junior High School Mathematics League on the first day of the junior high school. He taught himself high school courses during the summer vacation on the first year of the junior high school. Later, the senior took part in the National Mathematics Winter Camp for middle school students and achieved excellent results in the International Olympics. He is one of the best students ever trained by the Provincial No. 1 Middle School.

After Duan Qiyan introduced the senior in detail, he asked Lin Zhixia: "Hello, monitor Lin, how far is the gap between you and the senior?"

Before Lin Zhixia spoke, Jiang Yubai said firmly: "Lin Zhixia and seniors are different people. The comparison between them is meaningless."

Jiang Yubai's words came to Lin Zhixia's heart. She circled Jiang Yubai: "Jiang Yubai, I also want to participate in international competitions. I also want to team up with you to participate in the Romanian Mathematics Masters. That kind of competition seems quite interesting, and every country will send On the national team, I heard that the players from the United States, South Korea, and Russia are very strong, and we can try to beat them!"

Both Jiang Yubai and Duan Qiyan have heard of the "Romanian Mathematics Masters". Jiang Yubai fell into silence, and Duan Qiyan directly stated: "I can't afford the Romanian Mathematics Masters..."

After a pause, Duan Qiyan said loudly: "Squad leader Lin, you have waited for me for two years. In these two years, I will find the status of the first **** of war. I will join forces with you to win the international championship and let our The name was printed on the alumni record of the Provincial No. 1 Middle School."

Frankly speaking, Lin Zhixia didn't want to team up with Duan Qiyan.

Jiang Yubai ranked ninth in the class on the entrance examination. During the first time of school, Duan Qiyan occasionally came to taunt Jiang Yubai, which Lin Zhixia remembered still fresh. And as the monitor of the first grade (seventeenth) class of junior high school, she could not dispel his enthusiasm for learning in front of Duan Qiyan. She simply said vaguely: "Duan Qiyan, you can take the first prize in the league."

Jiang Yubai raised his left hand and stopped in front of Lin Zhixia: "I will get the first prize."

Lin Zhixia applauded him: "Of course! Jiang Yubai will certainly get the first prize!"

Duan Qiyan noticed that Lin Zhixia's attitude toward him was completely different from that of Jiang Yubai. Why is this? Since the beginning of the first semester, Duan Qiyan has frequently shown good wishes to Lin Zhixia, and Lin Zhixia generally responds to him in a polite and alienated manner.

In the first (seventeenth) grade of junior high school, Lin Zhixia is the number one in the class, and Jiang Yubai and Shen Jixuan will take turns to take the "second in the class". Duan Qiyan ranks fourth or fifth in the class all year round, and none of the classmates in front of him are at the same table with him.

When Duan Qiyan picked the next tablemate in his mind, Shen Jixuan's voice came from behind them.

Shen Jixuan shouted: "Preliminary, I'm coming!" His galloping figure was like a gust of wind, passing Lin Zhixia and Jiang Yubai.

Lin Zhixia followed Shen Shixuan and ran forward: "Go! Go!"

Duan Qiyan looked at their battles, and naturally he was unwilling to lag behind. He ran wildly, rubbing the soles of his shoes, and knocking out a loud "da da da" noise. He ran a long distance, and Shen Jixuan was still laughing at him loudly: "Hahahaha, look at Duan Qiyan, he is born to run wild."

Jiang Yubai commented: "Sometimes I don't believe that he is two years older than me."

Lin Zhixia laughed cheerfully: "Hahahahahahaha, I don't believe it either."

The preliminary round of the Math League opened in a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Jiang Yubai was up to 120,000 points. He wants to make all the questions for the first and second tests of the preliminary contest. When he enters high school, he will participate in the Romanian Mathematics Masters with Lin Zhixia, and then his and Lin Zhixia's names will be printed in the school history archives of the Provincial No. 1 Middle School.

Therefore, the league test paper is no longer a simple test paper, but a touchstone on the road ahead.

Jiang Yubai is extremely focused, writing like a god.

His problem-solving ideas were unimpeded, and his pen nib made a continuous rustling sound. Ten minutes before the end of the exam, he has finished the last big question. He did not hand in the papers in advance. He carefully checked the choices and filled in the blanks, and checked the calculations in his mind.

This time in the preliminary competition, he and Lin Zhixia were not in the same examination room.

When he raised his head and scanned the window, he suddenly saw Lin Zhixia's figure. She stood by the railing with her back to his classroom, looking up at the light blue sky with white clouds.

Jiang Yubai remembered what Lin Zhixia said to him this morning. She said, Jiang Yubai is like a diamond in the sky, bright and dazzling, I can see it as soon as I open my eyes.

The preliminary results of the Math League were released at the end of March, and Lin Zhixia won the retest without any suspense. In their first (seventeen) class, in addition to Lin Zhixia, there are seven other students who can participate in the semi-finals, and Jiang Yubai is one seventh.

Teacher Zhai reappeared as their head coach.

Teacher Zhai gathered all the good seedlings from the 17th and 18th classes of the first grade, and took them to do some special math training every day.

When Lin Zhixia was in the winter vacation training camp, she had not yet demonstrated her full strength. In the special training in April, as long as Teacher Zhai clicked on her name, she would answer the questions quickly and unabashedly. She and the other students in the first grade are obviously not on the same level. Ms. Zhai noticed her unusual talents, and hurriedly found the problem of the high school league.

It was the best sunny day since the beginning of spring, the sun was shining, the sky was washing, and the sound of reading in the class next door could be heard.

Teacher Zhai stood on a podium in a classroom, holding a ruler, and pointing to a question on the blackboard: "This is the fifteenth question of the 2001 High School Maths League, involving a little bit of common sense of resistance. Your physics teacher , Have you talked about resistance?"

Jin Baihui raised her hand: "I have learned resistance!"

Teacher Zhai nodded slightly. He has a very good impression of Jin Baihui. Jin Baihui from Class 18 is very hardworking and serious. No matter how difficult the task is assigned to her, she can complete it on time and according to the quantity.

Jin Baihui also wrote on the first page of the mathematics workbook with a marker, "If the end is as careful as the beginning, there is no failure." Teacher Zhai appreciates her learning attitude.

Perhaps there is a difference in talent between Jin Baihui and Lin Zhixia, but she can rely on her diligence to make up for that shortfall.

Teacher Zhai suggested with expectation: "You all try it, write this inscription..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zhixia told him: "Teacher Zhai, I have finished writing."

Lin Zhixia's seat is in the middle of the second row. Her tablemates are Jiang Yubai and Shen Jixuan. Jin Baihui sat right in front of Lin Zhixia. The second Lin Zhixia made her voice, Jin Baihui turned her head and stared at her, and asked: "Have you seen this problem? Why did you only write one for the proof of resistance? minute?"

Lin Zhixia held the corner of the draft paper and slowly raised the draft paper to block her own face and also blocked Jin Baihui's gaze from staring at her. Her problem-solving process was fully displayed before Jin Baihui's eyes.

Teacher Zhai walked off the stage quickly. He picked up Lin Zhixia's draft paper with both hands, scanned it slightly, pressed the paper with his fingertips, and folded a trace on both sides of the draft paper. Time seemed to pass very slowly. The second hand on the wall clock moved forward four units before Teacher Zhai said, "Lin Zhixia."

Lin Zhixia looked up at him: "Teacher Zhai."

She is only eleven this year and she is still a child, but Teacher Zhai came to a conclusion: "Lin Zhixia, after you participated in the semi-finals of the junior high school math league in April, you will continue to participate in the high school league. I will help you contact the teacher of the high school competition class. You follow us to learn junior high school competitions, this is not okay, really not. You follow the high school competition classes, you have the opportunity to get more honors... I have a student before, similar to your situation, he finished high school mathematics in the first year of junior high school He won the first prize of the high school mathematics league in the third year of junior high school. In his first year of high school, he directly won medals in physics and mathematics competitions internationally. He just entered the second year of high school this year and was successfully sent to the School of Mathematics of Peking University. , Look, this is your way..."

Jiang Yubai asked, "Should Lin Zhixia skip a grade and go to a high school competition class?"

Teacher Zhai thought for a while and added: "There is no need to skip grades. My student did not skip grades. Lin Zhixia is in junior high school and can also participate in the high school league. Lin Zhixia, you have enough gold medals in the competition. High school does not need to spend time studying, just I was recommended, just like your senior."

Lin Zhixia said nothing. She and Jiang Yubai looked at each other for a while.

This may be the most difficult decision Jiang Yubai has ever made. Jiang Yubai turned his face to avoid her direct stare, but his tone was firmer than she thought: "Lin Zhixia, you have to go forward bravely."
