Chapter 180 Deciding to Participate in the Physics Competition
Students like Pei Tiantian are in a special situation, and she is indeed relatively young. No matter what, she must maintain adequate sleep to ensure healthy growth.
Therefore, at Tao Jing's request, Pei Tiantian's daily morning reading classes were cancelled, and her evening self-study classes were not allowed to go home until 8:30 at most, so that she could get at least eight hours of sleep a day. .
But all this is based on the premise that Pei Tiantian's performance cannot decline.
This made many people in the class envious of Pei Tiantian, but the person they envied most was Shen Xing.
Shen Xing doesn’t have to go to and from school every day as hard as they do.
He was often away from school because he had to train for the Olympic Physics Competition.
After participating in the finals, he ranked fifth in the country and successfully entered the national training team, so he was recommended to Teito University.
After the dust settled on this matter, the school held banners, beat gongs and drums, and held commendation meetings non-stop.
In addition to Shen Xing, there were several other students taking other subjects who were also recommended.
But none of them are as attractive as Shen Xing.
Because Shen Xing is the first person in the history of No. 1 Middle School to win the gold medal in the Olympic Physics Competition.
Shen Xing has been famous for a while, and no one in the school knows his name.
After Shen Xing confirmed that he no longer had to take the college entrance examination, even if he returned to school, he would not have to study early and come home late like other students.
So how can everyone not be envious?
They were so envious that their eyes were red.
Of course this includes Pei Tiantian.
Especially because she is in the same class as Shen Xing, because Shen Xing does not have to take the college entrance examination, and the way he looks carefree in the class all day long has a big impact on everyone.
This is why so many people want to win prizes through competitions and be sent to university, because they don’t have to suffer.
Many people in the school also thought about it and wanted to sign up for the competition. However, when they saw the title of the competition.
Only the words "who am I and where am I" are constantly swirling in my mind.
Although the words are all Chinese characters, they couldn't understand what they meant when put together.
Because the test paper is too difficult, many people have given up their ambition to participate in the competition, and they still study honestly every day.
However, when Pei Tiantian saw the questions from the finals of the Olympic Physics Competition in previous years, she didn’t have to worry so much.
She was also a physics contestant in high school in her previous life, so these questions were not too difficult for her.
Shen Xing saw that Pei Tiantian seemed to be very interested in physics competitions, and told him that he was envious that he could have fun in the remaining high school years.
Shen Xing smiled and said: "Since you envy me so much, then you should also participate in the physics competition."
After Shen Xing said this, he actually remembered it himself.
Pei Tiantian has always received full marks in physics, and has had points deducted in other subjects. However, in physics, she has done well in every exam and has never had points deducted.
Even Pei Tiantian’s thinking is very quick when facing physics problems, and she often uses a competitive mindset to solve problems.
If Shen Xing hadn't known that Pei Tiantian had never participated in a physics competition and had no corresponding training experience, he would have suspected that Pei Tiantian had secretly found someone to give her extra lessons.
The key point is that Pei Tiantian doesn’t.
This made Shen Xing feel that Pei Tiantian still had some talent in physics.
Shen Xing changed his tone and said: "What I just said was serious. Let's do it. How about you try it first? There will be a preliminary competition in September. If your results are good, I think you can continue to participate. No. It will take you too much time."
In Shen Xing's heart, Pei Tiantian's level is about the same as Gu Rong's. He feels that even if Pei Tiantian devotes her energy to participating in physics competitions, her grades in school will not drop.
Shen Xing thought that he was quite smart before, but compared with Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong, Shen Xing felt that they were more favored by God.
Pei Tiantian thought for a moment and nodded: "I understand."
Shen Xing's words made her a little excited. Although she hadn't participated in a physics competition in so many years, she just gave it a try. If she didn't get admitted in the end, it would be fine. She could just come back and take the ordinary college entrance examination.
Pei Tiantian thought about it for a few days and then told Gu Rong about it.
Gu Rong actually knew from Pei Tiantian's voice that Pei Tiantian was thinking about whether to participate in the Olympic Physics Competition these days.
Gu Rong: "If you want to participate, just participate. What's wrong?"
Pei Tiantian: "But I will enter my senior year of high school next semester. If I take part in the physics competition at this time, will it be too tight for time? And I don't know if the school will agree."
Gu Rong: "Why don't you agree? The competition is your own business. What other people think is not important. What is important is your own. If you want to participate, just do it boldly. Even if you Your grades in school have been affected, and I will help you make up for it.”
Pei Tiantian's grape eyes were filled with smiles instantly: "Thank you, brother Gu Rong."
He knew that the villain boss would be on his side. After making up her mind, Pei Tiantian told Tao Jing and the rest of the Pei family about this.
Pei Tiantian didn't waste much time. Unexpectedly, everyone unanimously agreed.
The Pei family has full trust in Pei Tiantian.
They feel that Pei Tiantian will not do anything that is uncertain, and they also respect Pei Tiantian's wishes.
Tao Jing has a certain understanding of Pei Tiantian's performance level. She knows that Pei Tiantian's physics scores are the best among all subjects. If she has such a wish, she can also participate in the physics competition.
Tao Jing then reported the matter to the school leaders and asked the school leaders to assign Pei Tiantian a coach specializing in physics competition training.
School leaders are actually not very optimistic about the idea that Pei Tiantian suddenly wants to participate in a physics competition on the eve of her senior year of high school.
Shen Xing has always been a seed player in physics competitions, and the earliest time he participated in physics competitions can be traced back to junior high school, and Shen Xing has always been trained by professional physics competition coaches.
How could Pei Tiantian, a novice with no competition experience and no such professional competition training, be ready to participate in such a difficult competition in such a short period of time?
However, Tao Jing is very supportive as the head teacher, and Pei Tiantian herself has a strong will. It is not easy for them to prevent students from participating in the competition. After all, everyone has the right to sign up.
Everyone at the school agreed that Pei Tiantian was just a whim. Seeing that Shen Xing didn't need to study much, they wanted to follow his example.
This idea is not only shared by the leaders, but also by many students in the class.
Pei Tiantian’s physics scores are very good, but the physics they usually study is not the same level of difficulty as the competition physics questions. There are so many over-the-top knowledge in the competition questions.
Many classmates who have a good relationship with Pei Tiantian also come to persuade Pei Tiantian not to be too impulsive. The senior year of high school is a critical period, and every day's time is precious. If she wants to participate in the physics competition, it will be such a hassle. , it is very likely that the first semester of her senior year will be delayed by more than half, and her subsequent review tasks will be very heavy, which is not cost-effective for her.
Pei Tiantian just smiled and said nothing.
It is useless no matter how much she says now, only results can truly convince others.
The last physics competition coach assigned to Pei Tiantian by the school was the same coach who had coached Shen Xing before. The coach's surname was Zhang. He was a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. His face was very stern and unsmiling.
Pei Tiantian was a little frightened when she saw him for the first time.
I always feel that I am not an easy teacher to work with.
Shen Xing gave Pei Tiantian all his previous physics competition materials, and Pei Tiantian asked Shen Xingzhang how he was doing as a coach.
As soon as Shen Xing saw Pei Tiantian's look, she knew that she must have been frightened by Coach Zhang's naturally majestic appearance.
Shen Xing consoled him and said, "Don't worry, Coach Zhang is very nice and gentle. Don't look at him for looking so fierce. In fact, he is not fierce at all, and he is very serious and responsible. He treats everyone in our school equally."
Hearing what Shen Xing said, I asked about Coach Zhang's reputation. As long as the students who have been taught by Coach Zhang, they basically praise him.
Pei Tiantian suddenly realized that it was really not good to judge people by their appearance as before.
In order to participate in the training for the physics competition, I could only temporarily put aside my schoolwork with Tiantian and train with coach Zhang.
After all, it is a physics competition that is much more difficult than the usual school exams, and contains a lot of over-the-top content.
The first lesson Coach Zhang taught Pei Tiantian was about mentality.
She repeatedly told Pei Tiantian that the most important thing to do when preparing for the competition is to stabilize her mentality.
The competition is very tense and exciting. Many students who participate in the competition will break down easily because the pressure is too great. This not only results in their poor performance in competitions, but also affects their performance in other subjects.
Pei Tiantian nodded obediently, indicating that she understood.
Coach Zhang learned that Pei Tiantian had almost no experience before, and there were only a few months until the September preliminaries.
This time can be said to be very tight in the eyes of competition students, and if they want to train within this time period and eventually reach a level that can win awards, the possibility can be said to be almost impossible.
Of course, this is only Coach Zhang's preliminary estimate. He doesn't know much about Pei Tiantian yet. In order to better understand Pei Tiantian's background and the specific level of her physical level.
Coach Zhang gave Pei Tiantian a paper of previous Olympic Physics Competition preliminaries for her to work on.
In the preliminaries, this set of papers has a set time. Coach Zhang took Pei Tiantian's actual situation into consideration, so he told Pei Tiantian to take it back and do it by herself. She should do her best and do as much as she can without a time limit.
After Pei Tiantian received the paper, she worked on it during her spare time in each class. Before studying in class the next evening, Pei Tiantian gave the paper to Coach Zhang.
Coach Zhang was busy grading other people's papers, so he just asked Pei Tiantian to put down the papers and said that he would discuss the specific topics of the previous paper with Pei Tiantian tomorrow.
Pei Tiantian left.
The next day, Pei Tiantian came to see Coach Zhang as usual.
Unexpectedly, Coach Zhang’s usually stern face had a smile for the first time.
Pai Tingting actually saw a bit of kindness and kindness in his smile.
For some reason, this made Pei Tiantian even more uncomfortable.
She still prefers Coach Zhang’s usual coffin face, and is used to it.
“You did the questions on this test paper by yourself, right?”
Pei Tiantian: "Yeah."
Coach Chapter Chapter said: "There is a lot of knowledge beyond the syllabus. Have you learned it before?"
Pei Tiantian: “I like physics very much, so I have studied some high school and university courses by myself before.”
Zhang coach understood: "That's it."
He showed the corrected paper to Pei Tiantian: "I took your paper back yesterday and corrected it. Every question was answered correctly. You got full marks. Although it was said to be done without time limit, it was also very good. Yes, it shows that you have a good foundation. Pei Tiantian, you are very talented in physics competitions, but why didn’t you think about participating in the competition when you were a freshman in high school? "
Pei Tiantian said: "I was still young at that time, so I never thought about it."
Coach Zhang then remembered that Pei Tiantian was not yet twelve years old.
At such a young age, at the top of the grade, and so good at physics.
Coach Chapter Chapter also had to lament that the children today are much better than they were back then.
“It’s not too late for you to join in your senior year of high school.”
Coach Zhang felt that time was tight before because he thought Pei Tiantian was a student with no foundation, but now he has changed his mind.
Pei Tiantian has already studied college physics by herself. At the very least, she already has the basic knowledge and abilities. What she lacks is practical experience.
Pei Tiantian has been training for several months under the leadership of coach Zhang, and also trained with the first-year high school students for a week during the summer vacation.
In September, Pei Tiantian participated in the preliminaries.
The full score of the test paper is 200 points, and the test time is three hours.
Pei Tiantian got the paper and read it from beginning to end.
The paper covers not only high school physics, but also some college content. These college content are not too deep and are within Pei Tiantian's control.
So Pei Tiantian completed the preliminary test paper easily. Although she could not 100% guarantee that she had done all the questions correctly, she did not encounter any particularly difficult questions, so her score should be okay.
When Coach Zhang asked her how she was doing, Pei Tiantian said the same thing: "It should be okay."
Pei Tiantian thinks she’s pretty good, but in fact she’s really pretty good.
After the results of the preliminaries came out, everyone knew that Pei Tiantian got the highest score among the contestants, a perfect score.
