Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying
Chapter 15 Differences in Academic Ability
After the freshmen gradually became familiar with the ever-changing stairs in the castle, Wade's life in Hogwarts also formed a certain routine.
The schedule for first-year freshmen is very easy. There is only one class a day at the least, and no more than three classes at most. The rest of the time is at the students' disposal. After seeing such a class schedule, Wade was very skeptical for a while - why can't those students who complain about the professor's too much homework on time complete a few inches of paper?
In his previous life, when Wade was less than ten years old, he had to write at least 300 words, and that was in Chinese, which is called a "language compression package"; if converted to English, he could easily expand it to 1,000 words. After systematic training in high school, college, and graduate school, it is not impossible for him to write 10,000 words in two days.
After studying with Michael, Hermione and others for a period of time, Wade understood the reason.
Among the first-year students, except for Wade, Hermione was the easiest to complete the paper - at the very least, she would not make mistakes in basic grammar, and rarely encountered words that she could not spell. She could quickly grasp the key points in the text and then retell them clearly.
The above points were difficult for the other three to do, even Michael from Ravenclaw.
Because they all came from wizard families.
The lives of wizards and ordinary people are almost completely isolated - even if one of the couples is a Muggle. Most wizard families live in isolation. Not only do they never take the initiative to contact Muggles, they will also set up "Muggle-Repelling Spells" near their homes to prevent Muggles from accidentally breaking into their lives. Therefore, wizards do not understand how Muggles dress, do not understand the development of Muggle technology, and will not send their underage children to Muggle schools to study. In their eyes, this is no different from humans sending their children to monkeys living in trees to teach.
There is only one magic school in the UK, Hogwarts, and there is no "magic elementary school" or "magic university". In the wizarding world, children under the age of eleven are basically educated at home. If parents have time, they will teach their children to read, write, and do simple arithmetic. If they encounter irresponsible parents, their children may not even know how to spell with a "quill pen".
Michael and his friends have basically been educated by their parents since they were five or six years old. At least they don't have much problem with reading and writing. However, being able to read and write is different from learning ability. Compared with the systematic education in Muggle schools, the family education of wizards lacks a lot of things. For example, when wizard parents teach their children to read, they don't actually cultivate the ability of logical reasoning and induction and summary. Wade suspects that many wizards may not have any concept in this regard at all. After all, they have always been dismissive of Muggle theories.
And the little wizards, including Hermione, basically lack the ability to quickly extract the key points from the article and understand it. For example, the young wizards can only understand "the temperature of objects A and B is equal, and the temperature of B and C is equal, so the temperature of A and C is also equal"; but their reference books say "If each of the two thermodynamic systems is in thermal equilibrium with the third thermodynamic system, then they must also be in thermal equilibrium with each other. That is: if it can be confirmed that the physical properties of the two systems will not change when heat can be exchanged, even if the two systems are not allowed to exchange heat, it can be confirmed that they are in a state of mutual equilibrium."
Young wizards: ...?
A string of letters slid smoothly through the brain without leaving a trace.
Hermione can memorize all the content with her powerful memory, and then slowly understand it by comparing different materials; but most young wizards can only write down a bunch of notes that they can't understand, scratch their heads and hand in a homework, hoping that the professor will be kind enough to give them an A (pass).
Moreover, the eleven-year-old child was away from his parents to study in a boarding school, and the discipline of the college professors was not strict - even Professor McGonagall or Professor Snape, who were known for their strictness, would not care whether the little wizards who had no classes slept in the dormitory or played games in the lounge. This relaxed environment is naturally a great test for the self-control of minors. Laziness and playing are human nature, but learning is not. Learning is only interesting to a very small number of people.
For example, Hermione.
For example, Wade.
In just half a month, the two stood out from the first-year freshmen. The difference is that Hermione is strict with herself and others, and she firmly refuses any copying of homework and violation of school rules; while Wade never minds others copying his homework. When he is studying hard in the practice room and practicing spells repeatedly, he never forces others to work hard with him.
Wade actually understands the laziness of teenagers in learning. He was like this in his previous life. In this life, he worked harder than others, not because he loved studying, but because he loved magic - because for him, magic was not an innate and natural ability, so he cherished this opportunity more than anyone else in the school.
Once again, practice was close to curfew time, and Wade hurried back to Ravenclaw Tower. At this time, the corridor outside was quiet, as if everyone was asleep. But as soon as he entered the lounge, he felt that it was too early.
Hogwarts has a curfew but no lights-out time, and students can stay in the brightly lit common room all night if they choose. At this time, there were many students of all grades in the Ravenclaw lounge - there were lovers in love sitting on the sofa in the corner talking sweetly, there were bored little wizards playing wizard chess on the round tea table, and there were also senior students. Students in the first grade are rushing to catch up on their homework.
Although there were many people, it didn't seem noisy. The Ravenclaws consciously lowered their voices when talking.
Seven or eight people gathered on the sofa in front of the fireplace, and girls giggled from time to time. Wade glanced over there and casually found a remote corner to sit down, reading and taking notes.
When Michael in the crowd saw this, he smiled and said something to the girl next to him, then walked to sit next to Wade.
"Learning so late again?" Michael leaned on the table and said, "Vide, we have been in school for less than a month, and you have almost finished learning all the content in the first grade. What are you doing with the rest of the time? I didn't say that , you are working too hard, you should relax sometimes. Wade, brother, do you know how many girls want to know you?"
He raised his eyebrows towards the fireplace, causing another chuckle among the girls.
Vader stopped his quill, looked at Michael quietly with his gray eyes, and asked, "I don't know. But Michael - do you know how long we can stay at Hogwarts?"
