Chapter 576 Perfect Performance in Chinese

The competition among top science students boils down to their Chinese scores.

Although Chinese is the least important subject in practical science, even less important than English, it's often the Chinese scores that differentiate the rankings in science exams.

Just as math is always the deciding factor in arts subjects.

After all, there are too many experts in liberal arts subjects.

Unlike political science in graduate exams, there are many high school students who can score high in it. And liberal arts students generally (not all) love history. So, as long as top students choose liberal arts, their comprehensive arts scores won't be lacking, otherwise, there's no point in choosing liberal arts.

In other words, the college entrance exam is a competition of weaknesses.

Chinese is not an easy subject for most science geniuses.

The first exam sets the tone.

The time my score exploded was because Lao Ting took the test for me, so my Chinese broke 140.

Similarly, Liu Chengxi became the top student in the No. 1 High School because his Chinese composition suddenly clicked, so he improved by leaps and bounds.

As for Shi Yi, his Chinese has always been stable and strong.

Of course, one of the reasons he could be surpassed is that his Chinese wasn't strong enough to be outrageous.

If he had obtained Lao Ting's power, then the grand finale could be announced directly.

Therefore, the war that determines the victory, here I come!

After waiting quietly for a while, the teacher started distributing the papers.

Now, you can't start writing while looking at the test paper.

So Chen Yuan went directly to the fill-in-the-blank section for ancient poems.

Generally speaking, these points are a must-get.

It would be a great pity to lose such easy points.

Even, if you lose points here, it's equivalent to directly losing the competition with Shi Yi.

After all, he is the kind of terrifying opponent who will 'kill' you if you show even a slight flaw.

When Chen Yuan saw these fill-in-the-blanks for ancient poems, he found that he knew them all.

Good, these points should all be taken.

Then, go back to the first question and look at the popular science article in the modern reading section.

Read slowly, grasp the key information. Then, underline some definitions.

This part still tests logic.

And Chen Yuan, aside from his tendency to split hairs and argue, is still very logical.

He completely understood this popular science article.

The level is okay.

And that's how five minutes ended.

The bell rang to start the exam!

Okay.

First thing, attach the barcode and write your name and exam number!

And checked it again after writing it.

No problem.

Then, fill in the blanks for the six-point ancient poems!

17.1 Sima Qian said in "Reply to Ren An's Letter" that he encountered the disaster of Li Ling when he was writing "......", and because he regretted that this book could not be completed, so "......".

*caochuang weijiu, jiu jixing er wu wense* (started but not finished, suffered extreme punishment without remorse).

This is okay, within range.

17.2 The question asks about Li He's "Li Ping's *Konghou* Ballad," which explains the number of strings of the vertical *konghou* and another possibility. This is even simpler.

The poem directly indicates which article it belongs to, so as long as you can recite it and don't write the wrong words, there will be no problem.

*Shier men qian rong lengguang, ershisan si dong zihuang* (Before the twelve gates, cold light melts; Twenty-three strings stir the purple phoenix).

Yes, this is the sentence.

17.3 Xiao Gang copied a portrait of Zhuge Liang and wanted to write two lines of poetry on it, but he couldn't think of anything. Teacher Wang suggested using ancient phrases directly, such as...

This is a relatively rare type of question, that does not have a unique answer.

So the safer thing is to directly write something about it from the required ancient poems in high school.

*Chu shi yi biao zhen ming shi, qianzai shei kan bozhong jian* (His memorial on going to war has immortal fame; For a thousand years, who can compare with him?).

In this way, Chen Yuan spent two minutes writing these poems.

After checking it again, he came to the conclusion that there was no problem.

The 6 points of the college entrance examination were taken down first.

Then, start writing in order.

Maintaining a high level of tension, Chen Yuan was very focused on writing these questions.

In the first modern reading comprehension, the multiple-choice questions were quite clear, and there was no possibility of making mistakes, because the questions were of a high standard, and there were basically no ambiguous places. Chen Yuan recognized that the logic was meticulous.

Currently, still deducting 0 points.

Continue.

Questions 4 and 5 are subjective questions, which are the first modern popular science reading questions.

However, Chen Yuan can still offer the standard answer for question 4 like he is doing a science question.

Question 5: What kind of argumentation method did the author use to prove that the conclusion about the report was wrong? Summarize based on this article.

1. Use celebrity opinions and facts. (Combined with the content of the article)

2. Rely on your own field investigation.

3. Use conventional logical cognition to analyze and criticize.

This is the power that Lao Ting left me!

She said that this type of reading comprehension has a formula.

Even if it is changed to the national volume, it still has its own internal logic and can still be applied.

This kind of popular science argumentative essay generally takes three steps. First, the academic authority generally recognizes it. Second, the author's own personal experiment. Finally, sublimate it and guide readers to analyze and refute falsehoods.

How clear-headed, my thinking is so damn clear!

Currently, still full marks.

Continue forward!

Chen Yuan realized that this subject that he had feared the most before, after years of training, and finally under the transmission of Lao Ting's power, he had already mastered it.

My condition today is very good.

In this way, Chen Yuan went all the way down.

Even the classical Chinese reading comprehension, which is usually not very stable, felt quite good when I did it today. For example, the punctuation there was very easy to understand.

Keep writing, keep writing.

In this way, in an hour and a half, Chen Yuan completed all the ninety points of content except for the composition.

This time, the feeling was even similar to that of Lao Ting's time!

It was even slightly better than the last joint exam in the third year of high school.

The main reason is that the topics encountered were quite to his liking.

Chen Yuan was quite sure that he had completed the non-composition part very well.

All deductions should be within ten points!

As long as the final composition exceeds 50 points, it will be a solid 130+.

After adjusting his deep breath, Chen Yuan looked at the final answer, the composition with a score of 60 points.

In ancient imperial examinations, composition was basically required.

If a person wants to be an official, he must have a considerable level of writing skills.

It is still like this now.

Writing good documents is the key to promotion.

And the composition has always been something that Chen Yuan is more confident in.

So, let’s take a look at the topic!

Good stories can help us express and communicate better, can touch the soul and inspire wisdom. Good stories can change a person's destiny and can show the image of a nation... Stories have power.

When Chen Yuan saw these words, he immediately captured the key.

Because he had been trying to figure out the test-setter's ideas and had been speculating on the direction, and had guessed the general direction very early, he downloaded a software - "Study Times".

This thing is really helpful for college entrance examination compositions.

And doesn't this material correspond to - telling the story of *Huaxia* well?

Note that this material talks about the role of storytelling, the benefits to individuals, and the benefits to a nation, so the pattern of this composition must not be small.

Chen Yuan is sure that if he starts from 'a person should be able to tell stories', he will definitely not get a high score.

Starting from 'I tell a story' is off topic.

How to write?

It is necessary to combine the five thousand years of heritage, to reflect the nation and the country, to combine the present, and to show that good stories can show the glory of *Huaxia*.

After thinking for a while,

Chen Yuan began to write.

I think you must have heard such a story.

A scorching sun hangs high in the sky, burning everything, destroying crops, scorching dead trees, and drying up rivers. Under the sun, a giant desperately pursues, and finally turns into mountains, rivers, and living beings, benefiting all things.

You have also heard of the Taihang and Wangwu Mountains, which are seven hundred miles in circumference and ten thousand feet high, blocking traffic and requiring detours. Then an old man said: "My sons and grandsons will be inexhaustible, but the mountains will not increase. Why suffer from not leveling them?"

Also, a cute little bluebird, carrying wood and stone, shuttles through the sky, back and forth...

Western myths and stories preach that gods create everything, and that small humans can only look up to them. The myths of *Huaxia*, in countless chapters, are all clenching their fists, telling you powerfully: Although human beings are as small as dust, they can also fill the sea...

……

This composition, Chen Yuan takes the traditional *Huaxia* story as the starting point, focusing on writing the spiritual core of the *Huaxia* nation. Returning to modern times, it is the new Silk Road, the Belt and Road Initiative, the great rejuvenation, and the continuous export of cultural soft power.

The final ending:

The *Huaxia* people who have come this way are all storytellers. And our good stories are still alive and well...

There is no doubt that it is on topic.

Moreover, the pattern has also been opened up.

Shouldn't be a problem.

After completing the final composition, Chen Yuan also completed his Chinese test paper.

And this composition, the handwriting is neat and beautiful, there is no smearing from beginning to end, no correction symbols, and not a single word is written incorrectly. Those ancient 'scholar articles' should be nothing more than this.

My volume score, I am invincible.

In the last ten minutes, Chen Yuan was checking the questions.

Basically, there were no problems from beginning to end.

For him, self-examination was successful.

Of course, he did not relax.

Although many people handed in their papers early, he was not such a frivolous person.

In this way, it was not until the bell rang, everyone stopped writing, and then was asked to leave their seats, leave the examination room, and the invigilator personally came down to collect the test papers.

After putting down his test paper, Chen Yuan took his stationery and went outside.

At this time, it was noon.

The campus was full of discussions about this Chinese test, and some students from the first examination room of No. 11 High School that he knew.

But he knew that he would forget one subject after taking one.

Chinese, it's over.

Next game, continue to fight!

I originally wanted to follow the time, but I couldn't keep up, otherwise I would have done this year's test questions...
