This star just wants to learn

After the morning math competition ended, the examination paper review in the Huailin competition area also began.

After all, the competition is an assessment for a small number of students, so the total number of candidates is not too large. Coupled with the number and difficulty of the test papers, the marking work is not difficult.

Ten judges started reviewing hundreds of test papers at the same time, which was more than enough. The review work started at two o'clock in the afternoon and was finally completed at seven o'clock in the evening.

"Zhao Yu, City No. 2 Middle School, 92 points."

They are more interested in counting scores than boring test paper marking. While the statistician is reading the numbers, several marking teachers are making sharp comments.

"This guy can do it. Ninety percent should be the level of first prize."

Several statisticians have a heavy workload. They are just interns majoring in mathematics. Naturally, such big bosses cannot get in the conversation and are still carrying out the work at hand.

"Chen Jia, High School Affiliated to Normal University, 86 points."

"Wu Xinbo, City No. 1 Middle School, 80 points."

"..."

"It seems that the overall results of the High School Affiliated to Normal University are better than those of No. 1 Middle School."

A bald middle-aged teacher smiled when he heard this. They had also heard about the secret rivalry between the two local schools, but this time, it seemed that the primary school attached to the Normal University was winning.

"Gao Zhenting, City No. 8 Middle School, 8 points."

Several teachers were instantly amused. With eight points, it seemed that this kid only got one fill-in-the-blank question right, so he had participated in it, but he really had no talent.

Competitions are all about talent, and many schools don't pay much attention to it. Some students are even brought here because they are forced to do so. They may usually have good math scores, but when they get here, they can only be ignored by everyone.

Candidates with a score of 8 can even be regarded as able to read, and what's more, they can't solve a single question, and all they get is a bright zero.

"Chen Ruijie, High School Affiliated to Normal University, 101 points."

"Pu Tong..."

The statistician was suddenly stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that he could see Pu Tong's test paper. Looking at the bright numbers, he even suspected that he had read it wrong.

"what happened?"

Not only a few teachers, but also several other statisticians were attracted by this name, and they all came over to take a look.

"119?"

Everyone was immediately shocked. You must know that the full score for the first test is 120 points. Unexpectedly, Pu Tong almost got a perfect score!

"Who approved this? How come it's not full marks?"

Will a person who can pass 119 fail to score full marks?

The team leader of the marking team took the test paper and searched for a long time but couldn't find any errors.

Not to mention that the handwriting is not neat, Pu Tong is simply top-notch among a pile of test papers, and no one can find fault with his handwriting.

"it's me……"

The person who raised his hand was the bald middle-aged teacher just now. When he was marking the papers, he didn't know that this was Pu Tong. He just saw that all the answers were correct and marked 119.

He deliberately did not give full marks. In fact, he just wanted to give the candidates some room for improvement. After all, he could not let them be too proud and complacent.

Keeping one point for fear of making you proud is indeed an unwritten rule in the marking team, especially in competitions.

After listening to his explanation, the marking team leader sighed and explained earnestly: "This year's questions are still quite difficult compared to last year. There should be less than thirty people who scored more than 100 points, and only one got a perfect score. I can count them on my hands.”

"The purpose of setting up the Mathematics League is to cultivate young people's love for this subject. If we are just afraid that they will be proud and undermine their self-confidence, this is different from our starting point."

Isn’t it important to respect every student’s learning achievements?

In what age are you still using this idea of ​​supervisory autonomy to mark test papers? Since there is nothing wrong, why should they easily deny a single point of the examinee?

Under the stern explanation of the team leader, the other teachers lowered their heads in embarrassment. Their idea seemed to be somewhat outdated. Respecting every aspect of the students was the proper education model.

As a result, the number 119 on Putong's scroll was directly crossed out, and then a big number 120 was written on the back.

Looking at Pu Tong's test paper again, everyone always had a pleasant and heartfelt feeling. The entire test paper did not even have any trace of modification. Whether it was the handwriting on the paper, the drawings or the answering process, it was all done in one go. There was no fault at all.

There are four full-score test papers this time, but the other three are completely incomparable to Pu Tong's in terms of aesthetics.

If such a test paper cannot get full marks, then what other test paper can?

The statistician immediately understood and entered the words "Putong, City No. 1 Middle School, 120 points" on the computer.

…

"Son, we're not nervous, it's just a competition, there's no need to take it too seriously!"

Ni Hui and Pu Luo squatted behind Pu Tong, looking at the computer in front of him, waiting for the moment when the results of the competition would be released.

"I'm fine..." Pu Tong frowned, "But can you stop shaking your hands on my shoulders?"

He is indeed not too nervous, but are his parents a little too nervous? How can they have the nerve to encourage him?

Pu Luo and Ni Hui looked at each other and immediately released their hands on their son's shoulders.

How could they not be nervous? During this period of time, they have all seen their son's efforts. If he fails to achieve an ideal result, it may be a huge blow to him.

As parents, what worries them is not the quality of their children's achievements, but the worry that their efforts will not be rewarded. They are worried for their son.

"about there……"

His message pop-up window on the computer kept flashing. A friend should have checked it for him, or came to comfort him.

Pu Tong naturally ignored it. It would be better for him to complete the sacred moment of checking scores by himself.

He clicked on the official website of Huailin Digital Alliance. The competition was different from the college entrance examination. No information was needed to check the scores. The complete list was announced directly.

As the screen entered the score column of the preliminary round of the mathematics league, Pu Tong was fine, but his parents behind him were so scared that they covered their eyes, like children.

"Son, how are you?"

"It's expected." Pu Tong paused, "It's okay, just take a look."

Ni Hui and Pu Luo then opened their eyes and glanced at the screen. It was not difficult to find their son's score, it was third at the top of the list.

"120?"

Aren't the top three on this list all full marks? The reason why Pu Tong is in the third place is just because the initial letter P of his last name is a bit disadvantaged.

This was indeed what he expected. After all, he had checked it so many times without any mistakes or loopholes. It would be strange if it didn't get a perfect score.

His mentality was relatively stable, but his parents were not so calm. They hugged each other and cheered on the spot. For those who didn't know, they thought they had won the lottery.

"Son, please don't be proud, hahahaha." Ni Hui patted his shoulder, the corners of her mouth almost raised to the sky.

Pu Tong nodded. He had nothing to be proud of. His goal was the national championship. Now it was only a municipal competition. What was there to be proud of? There were still problems to come.

Compared to himself, he was still more worried about his parents being more proud.

Looking at the family of three, he is the most stable one, which is really a strange thing.

Only then did he have time to open the message bar. Most people came to him as soon as they found out the score to report the good news. Presumably his friends would also be surprised when they saw the score.

[Congratulations, Pu Tong, you are one step closer to your dream. ]

This was Yu Wanwan's reply. Although there were only a few sentences, he could vaguely see the excitement and relief of a girl hidden beyond the words.

He weighed it for a long time and simply replied with a few words.

[It is our dream. ]

The results of the mathematics competition were watched by netizens who had been waiting for a long time as soon as they were announced. As the most popular event in recent times, Pu Tong's scores in the mathematics competition are naturally worthy of attention.

They went in expectantly, then fell silent when they saw the scores.

A perfect score, actually a perfect score, this is more than just a 6, it’s like a double 6!

Looking at the perfect numbers on the bulletin board, the netizens who came to eat melons were even a little dazed. Pu Tong's words in the interview video still echoed in their hearts.

Do you call this a failure?
