Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 505 Frustration
After get off work in the evening, Duan Yun returned home.

Now Duan Yun is the backbone of the family. Basically, when she gets off work every day, her mother and sister have already prepared meals for her, and even after the meal, he doesn't need to clean up the table.

"Where's Xiaofang? Why don't you come over for dinner?" Duan Yun asked casually when he saw that his mother was the only one sitting at the dinner table.

"Xiaofang is in a bad mood today, she is lying in the hut, don't worry about him, you can eat first." Mother Gao Xiuzhi said with a slight frown.

"Why are you in a bad mood?" Duan Yun was taken aback when he heard the words, and then asked.

"Her classmate Li Yun received the admission letter from Taiyuan Teachers College last week, and has been admitted to a junior college. Our Xiaofang's admission letter has not yet arrived. It has been a month since the college entrance examination , I reckon it's a dead end..." Gao Xiuzhi said with a sigh.

"Li Yun has been admitted to college? It's amazing." Duan Yun curled his lips when he heard the words, and Duan Yun naturally still had an impression of Li Yun. Duan Yun's mother helped him sell a lot of antennas back then, and Duan Yun and their family had a good relationship.

But Duan Yun is most concerned about his younger sister Duan Fang. It stands to reason that after one month of the college entrance examination, the admission notice will definitely be issued. After all, after the summer vacation, he will start to register at the university. The notice has not been delivered yet. The possibility of not being admitted is very high.

So Duan Yun hung his coat on the hanger and walked into the hut.

"Sister, why don't you eat?" After entering the hut, Duan Yun asked Duan Fang who was lying on the bed.

"Brother, I'm fine, you guys go eat first, I'll be there later..." After hearing her brother's question, Duan Fang sat up from the bed, her eyes were a little red, obviously she must have cried just now.

Seeing his sister's disappointed expression, Duan Yun also felt a little complicated.

However, there is no way around this. After all, it is very difficult to get admitted to university these days. It is not because of how difficult the questions are. The key is that the admission rate is extremely low.

Duan Fang's grades have always been good before, and even in the province's college entrance examination preliminaries, his grades were very good, ranking fourth in the city.

The so-called pre-selection system for the college entrance examination has actually been implemented in most provinces across the country since 1981. Every May, each province conducts a round of unified examination competitions. Candidates can only get admission tickets for the college entrance examination if they pass the pre-selection exam. Every year, after the college entrance examination preselection, a large number of high school graduates are eliminated in advance, failed to enter the college entrance examination room, and directly entered the society without even touching the college entrance examination papers. However, there were less than 5 students who were able to participate in the college entrance examination preselection and passed. %, and the proportion of those finally admitted to technical secondary schools and universities is even lower.

For his younger sister's college entrance examination, Duan Yun actually paid a lot. When he was at the main factory, he would often hand out the exam papers to his younger sister when he was free, and supervise and guide him in studying mathematics, physics and chemistry. Duan Yun also has a lot of credit for being among the best in the preliminaries of the college entrance examination.

Duan Yun also always felt that his younger sister was very smart. Later, Duan Yun's test papers were no longer difficult for her. At that time, Duan Yun had also become the general manager of the labor service company. He had a lot of things to do when he first took office. Her tutoring is also much less.

In addition, filling in the application for the examination these days is also different from that of later generations, and it can even be said to be a bit weird, using the application of score assessment.

The so-called voluntary score assessment means that once the college entrance examination is over, the candidates will be given standard answers. The score assessment depends entirely on memory. Fill in the report to estimate your own score. If you are not sure, you may suffer a big loss in filling in the application form. .

Duan Yun asked her sister before, and Duan Fang said that her estimated score was quite high. The total score of science this year is 640 points, and the key score line is 480 points. She said that her score should have passed 500, so Duan Yun is watching After reading the "Admission Newsletter" newspaper issued by their school, they conducted a screening.

Among the national key comprehensive universities of science, Peking University, Nankai University, Nankai University, University of Science and Technology, Shanda University, etc. are all good, but the admission scores are too high and the number of students enrolled is too small. My younger sister Duan Fang has been afraid to apply for these universities.

Duan Yun also understands that with the ability of his younger sister Duan Fang, Tsinghua University and Peking University will definitely not be able to get into a school like Tsinghua University. Those who can get into that kind of school are basically the champions of various provinces and cities. Although Duan Fang is excellent, she has not yet reached the top of the list. Degree.

So after some consideration, Duan Yun helped his younger sister Duan Fang choose Tianjin Nankai University as her first choice. The reason why she chose Nankai University as Duan Fang’s first choice is because Tianjin Nankai is a key university ranked high in the country. The difficulty is not as difficult as BJ Tsinghua University and Peking University, and Tianjin is not too far from Daxing. They are all in the north, and it is more convenient to go home by train.

As for the second volunteer to apply for the Taiyuan Institute of Mechanical Engineering, in 1958 the school became the most complete institution of higher learning in conventional weaponry in China at that time. It is one of the eight major undergraduate colleges of the national defense industry.

My second choice is to choose this school because it is a school in the province, which is relatively close to home. The second is that Duan Yun wants his sister to also work in the electronic machinery industry, so that he can become a support for his factory and company in the future.

It's just that he didn't expect that Duan Fang hasn't received the admission notice yet, so it's obviously a disaster.

But for his younger sister Duan Fang, Duan Yun can't be harsh. Although his tutoring and tutoring have been in vain, Duan Fang has indeed tried his best. In the past six months, he often saw Duan Fang studying alone until late. It is definitely down, but the talent is limited, and it can only be so.

"Okay, if you don't pass the exam, you won't pass the exam. It's a big deal to take another year of tutoring. Then I will spare time to tutor you, and I will definitely let you go to college!" Duan Yun comforted his sister.

In fact, the high number of repeat students in the 80s was also a characteristic of those years. If they failed the preselection, they had to take the exam for another year.

In Duan Yun's view, with Duan Fang's learning ability, if she takes another one or two years of tutoring, even if she can't get into Tsinghua University and Peking University, it is not a big problem to get into an ordinary university. With doctoral tutoring, the chances of success in the college entrance examination are still very high.

Moreover, Duan Fang is still young at present, and occasionally experiencing some setbacks and failures will be good for her future life, and it may not be a good thing for her life to go smoothly.

As the old saying goes:

Crossing the small bridge is the main road.
