I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 335 Today, the whole country is proud of you!

Regarding the increase in difficulty and the increase in the number of questions in this IBO, Percy, as the leader of the questioning team of this year's IBO, is supportive.

But unlike those extreme Westernists, he is always vigilant and fearful of Xia Guo's rise, as if even a talented high school student born in Xia Guo's academia would feel humiliated and surpassed. sense of crisis.

He is not like those famous universities who always want to recruit all the talents from all over the world into their school, assimilate them into their own, and contribute to the school's "alumni circle". Throw a tempting olive branch.

He is more out of the dignity of being an expert on the topic and the pleasure of finding "confidantes".

As a biology educator who has spent most of his life studying the questions of the Biology Olympiad, the Olympiad questions are like exquisite works of art in his eyes. He likes to watch candidates think hard in their carefully prepared test papers, and then hit their heads and bleed , The broken halberd sinks into the sand, with a sad face.

This will give him a sense of accomplishment.

Of course, if a candidate can use his wonderful thinking to solve the deepest trap hidden in the topic, he will also be happy, because it will give him the joy of scratching the itch.

With the growth of age and the improvement of qualifications, after he became the leader of the IBO test group, he seldom set questions himself, but he would still figure out some "world-class" problems in his spare time. For fun.

The two big questions in this additional volume were the ones he had pondered over the past few years, and the difficulty could be called abnormal level.

Although they are all knowledge within the scope of high school, the knowledge points are very rare, and the knowledge points in different subdivisions are interlinked. If any small knowledge point is not fully understood or not deep enough, it will cause misunderstanding, and thus enter the Wrong fork in the road.

For example, the first additional question involves the behavioral system of animal ethology, variation and multiple allelism of genetics, and cell structure and function of cell biology. The questions include mannitol and quality The relationship between wall separation, the relationship between the extinction amount of vegetation and altruistic behavior of animals, the relationship between the diffusion direction of gas molecules and the gas partial pressure in animal cells, arterial blood, and tissues, the genetic variation of tunicates, etc.

What's more difficult is that the first seven questions are indeterminate choices. There are as many as ABCDEF six options. As long as one of the options is omitted or more than one is selected, it will be judged as all wrong and no points will be awarded.

The next few small questions asked to draw the cell structure, answer the regularity of genetic variation, and solve practical problems through the characteristics of altruistic behavior of animals.

This requires candidates to have a very broad vision, very deep and even complex biological knowledge points, and to be able to think flexibly, draw inferences from one instance, and achieve a mastery of all sub-disciplines in the whole discipline.

——This is something that even the experts in the review group couldn’t do. It took them more than four hours to work out the first question when they could read the reference materials, and the eighth question that drew the cell structure Xiaowen didn't get it right either.

It can be seen how abnormal the difficulty of these two additional questions is.

For Xia Guo's candidates, the difficulty of this abnormality has increased a bit, because the additional papers are all in English, and they have to translate into Chinese before answering the questions.

Because there are too many knowledge points involved, too many professional terms, and some nouns do not even have corresponding Chinese words at all. Forcible translation can only use transliteration or free translation, making up nouns that are not found in Chinese textbooks——Representative Xia Guo Coach Xu, who was responsible for the translation, and the full-time translator who accompanied him expressed that they were powerless and could only give up the translation of the additional volume.

——Probably in their opinion, even geniuses like Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are unlikely to be able to make the extra paper that even they have a headache reading. In addition, the English proficiency of these two students is quite high. Random translation will affect their judgment on the topic, so it is better to keep the original English version.

The situation is similar in other countries, so the additional paper is the only one, and all candidates in the room use the English version of the paper.

Of course, the vast majority of candidates had already heard the rumors, and they didn't waste any time touching the additional paper. They just concentrated their minds and attacked the main paper of the theory paper with all their strength.

They only have 5 hours, and they don't even have the confidence to finish the 150-plus questions of the main paper. How can they have the time to do the extra paper that is said to be difficult in hell?

Percy walked slowly in the examination room. Looking around, the candidates were basically frowning and struggling to do the main paper of the theory paper. Judging by their speed of doing the questions, which candidate could finish the test within five hours? If you complete two-thirds of the questions, you can secure the gold medal.

Percy's eyes fell on that magical Xia Guo "Miracle Kid" again.

What is different from others is that this kid looks as calm as water, and the pen in his hand never stops. After reading the questions, he writes the answer. He hardly takes time to think, and he never touches the draft paper. Like killing all the way, the speed of solving the questions made Percy secretly speechless.

As expected of an evildoer who can get full marks in all three international science Olympiads, his thinking speed is simply astonishing.

Not only Percy was paying attention to Qin Ke, but the other invigilators in the examination room also glanced at Qin Ke from time to time.

Although in the eyes of westerners, the appearance of yellow-skinned Xia people is difficult to recognize, but this Xia country student is different. He is wearing the uniform of the Xia country representative team, and the natural curly hair that looks a bit messy, the top of the head Stupid hair is his trademark, but anyone who has watched the previous International Olympiad awards ceremony in any subject of mathematics, chemistry, and physics can easily recognize him.

So "accidentally" passing by the invigilator beside Qin Ke, the shock on his face could not be concealed, because the high school students in Xia Guo answered the questions so fast.

Half of the questions in this year's IBO are indefinite multiple-choice questions. This kid is good. After looking at the questions, he directly chooses the answer. Even if he has memorized the answers, he may not answer them as quickly. After all, it takes time to recall the answers. of!
Fortunately, the following questions and answers, calculations, and essay questions slowed down his speed of doing the questions, otherwise all the invigilators were worried that he would be able to hand in the paper in half an hour.

It's no wonder that when the IBO Organizing Committee knew that Qin Ke was coming for the exam, he looked like he was facing a formidable enemy, and even issued an extra paper that was extremely difficult!

Under the "watching" of Percy and several invigilators, Qin Ke stopped writing, put away the thick stack of papers, and put them in the corner. English answer!
Percy looked up at the wall clock in the examination room, 56 minutes! In 56 minutes, this Xia Guo kid completed 150 questions!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Percy would not have believed it. Even an old biology educator like him with decades of experience would not be able to do it at such a speed!

It's amazing, what a formidable young man, this is the first time in my life that I have met such a talented student!

Percy became inexplicably excited at this moment, because he saw Qin Ke pick up the additional volume!His masterpiece!

This is a top-level problem that he has spent several years figuring out. It was originally only for self-entertainment and the pursuit of the ultimate art of competition difficulty. He never thought of taking it out as a public examination paper. As a student, he decided not to be lonely and self-admired, and took it out as an additional question for the finale!
Qin Ke didn't notice Percy, all his energy was focused on the topic.

He carefully went from the first big question to the last No.12 small question, and then slowly closed his eyes. He needed to search for relevant knowledge points from the boundless knowledge in his mind.

These knowledge points are so rare that they don't even appear in textbooks, they only appear in very unpopular high school extracurricular readings, but no matter how rare they are, as long as they have appeared in this world before and within the scope of high school, It will be included in the "International IBO" level of biology subject knowledge and imprinted in Qin Ke's mind.

What Qin Ke needs to do is to use his extraordinary scientific thinking to connect all these uncommon knowledge points together and flexibly use them in solving problems.

Percy saw that Qin Ke finally fell into thinking this time, and did not pick up a pen to do it like the previous main volume. Obviously, the first interlocking and uncommon knowledge points at the beginning gave him a bit of a headache, and it took time to recall. .

The corner of Percy's mouth curled up, and he didn't patrol around anymore. He just stood behind Qin Ke and watched him do the questions.

Dozens of experts in the previous review group, when they saw the first question, they shouted "My God, what kind of devil question is this!" "This is too difficult!" 15 minutes!"...Of course, these surprises also filled Percy with a sense of pride and accomplishment.

He was very curious about how long it would take this Xia country student who is called "Miracle Boy" to solve this first problem, or in other words, whether he could solve this first difficult problem.

Time passed by bit by bit, and Qin Ke still closed his eyes when more than a minute passed, but the pen in his hand suddenly began to turn back and forth between his fingers, turning faster and faster, almost at any time It may fly out, but it never misses.

The corners of Percy's mouth grew wider and wider.

Although your pen-turning action is astonishingly accurate, how can it help you solve the problem?

But the smile on the corner of Percy's mouth froze in the next moment, because Qin Ke stopped turning the pen at his fingertips suddenly, and his eyes opened at this moment, and when he flipped his fingers, the pen was already caught between his fingers.

At this moment, Qin Ke was like a top swordsman pulling out his sword, his aura changed abruptly, and the pen fell to the answer area of ​​the additional volume, and then he swiped like a dragon and snake.

A, ACF, EF, BCD, AF, B, ACDE!

Qin Ke actually answered the first seven indefinite multiple-choice questions in one go, and the answers were all correct!

This... how is this possible!

Percy stared at this scene dumbfounded, but saw that Qin Ke had begun to draw the cell structure in the answer area of ​​the eighth small question with fluent strokes. He drew very finely, and all the test points involved were fully integrated into this cell structure in the figure.

Because it was too detailed, the cell structure diagram took him about 10 minutes. Although the artist was very ordinary, the details were clear and impeccable. Even if Percy answered the question himself, he would not be able to draw such a detailed level.

Qin Ke ignored Percy's amazed gaze behind him. The questions in this additional paper were indeed very difficult, and the test was too unpopular and detailed. not come out.

Most of the perverts who asked this question were specialized in these rare subdivisions of biology, or spent countless thoughts on research.

It's been a long time since Qin Ke got excited in subjects other than mathematics, but this super-difficult biology subject made his blood boil.

He flicked his numb and sore wrist, and continued to use a pen to give supplementary explanations of the movement in the cell structure in English.

"phospholipids to move between both leaflets of the bilayer in transverse movement, in a flip-flop manner... (phospholipids move between the upper and lower layers of the bilayer structure...)"

The six or seven lines of explanations in English are not difficult for Qin Ke, who is now at the limit of his English ability. The difficulty is how to accurately explain the thoughts in his mind.

After finishing the eighth little question, he rushed to the ninth little question without stopping.

"ATP is better than either glucose or fatty acids as an energy source for cell metabolism... (ATP is better than either glucose or fatty acids as an energy source for cell metabolism...)"

Percy kept his mouth slightly open and looked at the scene in shock, the shock in his heart couldn't be more shocking.

He didn't doubt that the answer was leaked at all, because Qin Ke's answer was more detailed than the standard answer he wrote!
Percy suddenly remembered that when he was young, he always got full marks in the exams. Once the teacher specially asked him a super difficult problem, and he finally made it.He will never forget the unconcealed surprise of the teacher at that time.

It was the look of the teacher that made Percy feel refreshed. From then on, he studied harder and finally achieved his current achievements.

Unexpectedly, decades later, he suddenly repeated his role as a teacher.

Percy sighed in his heart. He had been standing behind Qin Ke, watching Qin Ke spend almost four or ten minutes to complete the two top-level problems he had carefully designed like a puddle.

When Qin Ke put down his pen and breathed a sigh of relief, Percy suddenly smiled. He knocked on Qin Ke's desk, gave the Xia Guo candidate a thumbs up, and left with a satisfied smile.

All the invigilators had been paying attention to Percy's expression, seeing that he broke the rules of the examination room and gestured to a candidate, and it was an affirmative gesture, they were all stunned.

Considering that Percy is the leader of the test team, this action has a strong omen.

Sure enough, all the invigilators saw Qin Ke holding up the "HELP" sign, and one of the invigilators subconsciously put on a sealed bag. As expected, this talented student from Xia Kingdom really wanted to hand in the papers in advance.

The invigilator looked at the time, only about 1 hour and 55 minutes had passed since the start of the exam.

Look at Qin Ke's answer sheet again, including the supplementary sheet, it is densely filled with answers...

……

The grading of the additional papers was personally in charge of Percy. He went through all the answer papers, only two of them had written answers, and one of them only made a third of them, but it was already amazing, Percy After carefully reviewing it, Xi gave it 35 points.

And the other was a familiar paper filled with answers. He didn't even look at it, and directly gave it a perfect score of 100.

Several reviewing experts reluctantly asked Percy to check the answers carefully to see if there were any mistakes or omissions. Percy said directly: "I just watched him finish it. This answer is better than what I prepared. It needs to be perfect, whoever has the ability to pick out the thorn, you pick it yourself!"

The experts were so choked up that they couldn't speak. If they had the ability, did they need Percy to personally review the additional volume?

Percy ignored them, and directly wrote this sentence after the bright red 100 in the answer score column of Qin Ke's additional paper:
"You are the most gifted high school student in biology I have ever seen. You are amazing. I look forward to seeing you shine in the field of biology in the future, miracle boy from Xiaguo!"

In the end, this comment, together with Qin Ke's theoretical and experimental double perfect scores, was put on the official website of IBO.

The Miracle Kid from Xia Guo, in this year's IBO, continued to stand on the throne of the champion with an unrivaled and unquestionable full score, and next to him was the runner-up from Xia Guo The incredible girl, Ning Qingyun.

The whole world's high school circles were a sensation, and even the academic world had countless bigwigs staring at it.

Such a miraculous sweep of the dazzling results of the four major international science Olympiads is absolutely unprecedented, and I am afraid there will be no one to come again.

This day was February 2st, and countless people remembered the names of these two Xia Guo high school students.

His name is Qin Ke!

Her name is Ning Qingyun!
When the news was sent back to Xia Guo, "Uncle" and Lao Chen talked on the phone again.

The uncle smiled and said, "Congratulations, old Chen, your wish has come true. This year's work report will be easy for you."

"Don't you also have a lime operating system that you can brag about?" Lao Chen was in a very good mood, and he said cheerfully:

"There is a saying on the Internet? You can always trust Qin Ning's combination! Hahaha! No wonder Western countries call them Miracle Boys and Incredible Girls. It really makes me feel good!"

"How difficult is the IBO this time, I think it is necessary to explain to the outside world, so as to really boost the morale of students across the country, old Chen, what do you think?"

"Naturally. The popularity of IBO is far less than that of IMO. If you don't make a special explanation, others will think that Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun just went around casually and came back with a small prize!"

Soon, #这些IBO题目如何实常# finally caused a huge sensation on the Internet through the special publicity of the media.

Countless people have changed from the joy of "taking it for granted" to the ecstasy of "slapping the table".

[I thought that Qin Shen and the others participated in the IBO just to collect prizes, but I didn't expect such an inside story! 】

【Hahaha, God Qin is amazing, this slap was so loud, what kind of additional papers did they get, they just brought their face to God Qin to slap! 】

[Everything is shameless, it is just a paper tiger (dog head) in front of Xueshen]

[Blood boiling, joyful! 】

【Congratulations for our four consecutive championships in Xia Kingdom!The historical record created for Qin Shen and Ning, congratulations! 】

[Beautiful, my youth, Xia Guo, is not as old as the sky!I am a young man from the Xia Kingdom, and my country has no borders! 】

"Xia Guo Academic Daily" also published a title on the scarf titled "my country's Olympiad Team Reached the Summit of Glory Four times", and the accompanying picture is a screenshot of the IBO official website. Comments, there is another sentence below:

"Today, the whole country is proud of you!"

　Thanks to "Fake Luo Xiaosan" and "Ah Qing practiced her voice today" for their rewards!

　　I wish you all a healthy Dragon Boat Festival!
