Chapter 593: : Must take the ranking (1 more)
Chapter 593: : Must take the ranking (1 more)
After returning to school from the Ning's house and finishing class, Xia Xiaolan can't go back to Shichahai's house.
In the final of the English competition, Teacher Lin is going to give her special training.
At this time, there is no distinction between the Department of Architecture and other departments, and there is no distinction between new students and old students. What is going on is the collective honor of Huaqing. Among the four students who are in the finals, no matter who gets the ranking or the high ranking, the honor belongs to the school.
Then you don't need to be careful about how to go to the finals, how to improve your English in a short time, you have to rely on the relevant teachers of Huaqing to study together.
Teacher Lin is not the only foreign language teacher in Huaqing.
Huaqing has a Department of Foreign Languages, and the Department of Foreign Languages is very famous. It was established in 1926. Many famous domestic scholars and professors came from this department. Later, the Department of Foreign Languages suspended enrollment. Until last year, the Department of Foreign Languages was rebuilt and re-enrolled.
In addition to the two freshmen Xia Xiaolan and Ji Jiangyuan who reached the finals, the remaining two are sophomores in the foreign language department!
In addition to Teacher Lin, there are professors from the Department of Foreign Languages.
At 7 o'clock in the afternoon, the professor gathered Xia Xiaolan and several people in the small classroom, first gave four people an ideological education class, and re-emphasized the importance of this final.
That's right, all the 4 people who made it to the final are here, and Ji Jiangyuan is also there.
Xia Xiaolan said it was not a joke to cut off his robes. Ji Jiangyuan looked over and Xia Xiaolan waited indifferently.
Thanks to Ji Ya, Xia Xiaolan and Ji Jiangyuan for their gossip, many people in the school know about it.
If others dont talk about it, it doesnt mean that they dont mutter in their hearts. Looking at Xia Xiaolan with a frosty face, even if they have something with Ji Jiangyuan, they are ruined by Ji Jiangyuans mother. All female classmates dare not contact Ji Jiangyuan now. No matter how handsome you look, what's the use of having a background at home? With a mom like that, everyone should stay far away from Ji Jiangyuan. ,
When the girls think so, the boys sympathize with Ji Jiangyuan, especially Ji Jiangyuans roommates. At that time, they answered whatever Ji Ya asked. How could I know that Ji Ya was such a person, causing trouble to Xia Xiaolan, and let Ji Jiangyuan be here? The school can't look up.
Many popular figures in the past were so disgraced, thanks to Ji Jiangyuan's high psychological endurance, that he came to school so soon that he had to sell off his leave.
"...This is the first national English competition held by the Ministry of Education. It is aimed at college students across the country. Who can win the finals and which group can win is not only a personal honor, but also a schools. It represents the foreign language level of the school, especially now that our country focuses on English!"
In particular, the Department of Foreign Languages in Huaqing was rebuilt last year.
This time the Ministry of Education is launching a national college student English competition. The Department of Foreign Languages of Huaqing attaches great importance to it. The Ministry of Education officially included "English" as the main subject of the college entrance examination. The Ministry of Education needs this competition to increase the public's attention to the subject of "English". Tell the middle school students what the English level of the college students is, and also submit an answer sheet to the superior.
In the minds of Zhonghua Qing Foreign Languages Department, they all want this competition to be as lively as possible.
The name of the "first" is also relatively heavy. The founders of the mountains have shocked the heroes-Huaqing and Beijing University are old competitors. This kind of competition in the field of teaching is happy for each other, and healthy competition will promote each other's growth.
The professor said a big deal, and seeing the four people including Xia Xiaolan nodded, the professor added another heavy hammer:
"You may have all heard that the students who won the finals have the opportunity to go to foreign universities to become'exchange students'. This is not groundless. The Ministry of Education does have this plan! You also know that this summer Its the first time to participate in the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, USA. This is the first time that Chinas sports style has appeared in the world. In addition to sports, we also have outstanding students. You are the reserve talents of China... Its great to be an exchange student. , To be able to personally experience foreign education and culture, and the academic atmosphere of American universities is also very strong. Having this experience of exchange students is also a valuable asset for everyone's future work and life!"
Exchange students are not the same as studying abroad.
But it's too fake to say who doesn't want to experience the foreign world.
Xia Xiaolan has seen all those who sell their houses to go abroad at their own expense.
This kind of exchange students may go abroad for half a year or a year, and the country pays for the round trip expenses and the local board and lodging. Who wouldn't want to go?
Even Xia Xiaolan wants to go. What he earns at home is Chinese currency, while what he earns abroad is U.S. Dollars. The ratio of exchange for Chinese currency on the black market is 1:10. To earn money from capitalist countries, take it back to build China, Xia Xiaolan has a little pressure. Nothing.
It's not bad to go to the United States for half a year. I can see if there are any business opportunities, and I can help Grandma Yu find her son by the way.
The professor can also be considered as a chicken blood for everyone. In the past, what Xia Xiaolan heard from Liu Huazheng's mouth was a guess, and what he said from the professor's mouth was an unannounced fact.
However, it is not easy for Xia Xiaolan to win prizes, and she is not the only one in the finals.
Not to mention competing with other players for rankings, even if the other three of Huaqing entered the finals at the same time, Xia Xiaolan had no confidence to win.
There are a total of 100 college students entering the finals across the country. Xia Xiaolan thought of her oral answer part and suspected that she entered at the end.
There are a total of 20 universities in Beijing that have entered the finals. Huaqing's current number is the same as that of Beijing University, both of which are 4. Some schools are nothing but zero duck eggs, and these 100 finals places have basically been divided up by key universities in various places.
Xia Xiaolan is very active when she wants to win the prize.
Xia Xiaolan didn't pay attention to Ji Jiangyuan or something. There was a short-term goal, and Xia Xiaolan got in. Human beings have evolved to this day, with beautiful Chinese words and sentences. Isnt the languages of other countries beautiful? If you dont learn it for a certain purpose, its easier to discover the beauty of language itself.
Being able to enter the finals proves that everyone has a good grasp of basic vocabulary. The meaning of the professor is to attack everyone's advanced vocabulary and use advanced sentence patterns.
"Eating delicious food, reading a good book, listening to a good song, and complimenting someone, can you only say'verygood', and'prestantious','jelly'... or you are like a head In rhyming poems, using'thrivenandthro' makes it easier for the judges to be refreshed?"
Xia Xiaolan admitted that the professor was right. Although the ancient poetic vocabulary "thrivenandthro" would not be used to praise someone in life, it was definitely more compelling than "verygood" in the finals-when everyone's level When they are almost the same, as the professor said, advanced vocabulary and advanced sentence patterns will make people stand out.
This time, the professor pointed out the direction for everyone. Some time before the final, Xia Xiaolan knew where to work hard.
She didn't plan to tell Grandma Yu about this. If she didn't get the "exchange student" quota in the end, wouldn't she let Grandma Yu be happy? Teacher Lin and Xia Xiaolan went along for a while, and they were very strange:
"You seem to have a high enthusiasm suddenly, from letting the flow go to being sure to win, what happened?"
