Rebirth of science and technology academic master

Chapter 98 Proposition

Eh? Professor Qin!?

You have also been selected to be an expert on college entrance examination questions!

A white-haired old man saw Qin Yuanqing and spoke in surprise.

Professor Deng! Qin Yuanqing greeted the old man. Professor Deng is a senior professor at the School of Biology of Shuimu University. Qin Yuanqing had tea with him some time ago.

Professor Deng, Professor Qin is a proposition expert that we have spent a lot of effort to invite to serve as the leader of the national mathematics paper proposition group! the leader laughed.

Leader of the Mathematics Proposition Group? After hearing what the leader said, several old experts sitting under the shade of the tree were all stunned.

Some old experts even began to look at Qin Yuanqing up and down.

Such a young man who looks to be only 24 or 25 years old is actually the leader of the mathematics proposition group!

It was not the first time for many of them to take part in the proposition work of the college entrance examination paper, and of course they knew the weight of the identity of the leader of the proposition group.

What expressions do you old guys have? There is absolutely no doubt about Professor Qin's professionalism. He scored full marks in all subjects in last year's college entrance examination, and his grasp of the college entrance examination is better than that of us old guys! Professor Deng said with a smile when he saw everyone's appearance.

As a professor from the same school, I naturally have to help support the situation.

You may not think that Professor Qin is young, but he solved two world-class mathematical problems last year and won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics. He is the number one person in our Chinese mathematics community! He is definitely qualified! said Professor Deng.

Although the news about Qin Yuanqing has been overwhelming for a long time, it is inevitable that some elderly people don't usually read news and newspapers, so they don't know about Qin Yuanqing.

You guys can have a good chat later, I'll take Professor Qin to the dormitory first! the leader said with a smile.

Qin Yuanqing pulled his suitcase and was led by his leader to a spacious single room in the dormitory building.

The area of ​​the single room is not large, less than twenty square meters, with a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe. This is all the furniture.

This was originally a soldier's dormitory in the military region. The conditions are a bit shabby. I can only wrong you, Professor Qin, during this period. The leader said apologetically.

Qin Yuanqing waved his hands indifferently and said with a smile, I'm not here for vacation. It doesn't matter where I live.

Although the room was a bit shabby, Qin Yuanqing didn't care too much.

He is not particular about food, housing and clothing, as long as it is not too bad. Although this place is a bit crude, it has everything you need, and it's even equipped with air conditioning, so you won't feel too hot when sleeping at night.

There is no TV, refrigerator, sofa, etc.

Professor Qin, please clean up here first. After lunch, I will arrange for other members of your proposition group to meet. The leader said politely.

Qin Yuanqing smiled and nodded, Okay.

During lunch, Qin Yuanqing was quite surprised because he found that the food here was very good, no less than that of a five-star hotel. Although there were not many dishes, they were all exquisitely cooked and tasted delicious.

Professor Qin, don't be surprised. Although it is a bit simple here, the food and drink here are definitely better than five-star. The chef can cook whatever you want. Even if you want to have supper at night, you can make it at any time. Professor Deng saw Qin Yuanqing's surprised expression and said smiled.

Others also gave out kind smiles. It was obvious that people who were used to this place were used to this.

Took a nap.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Yuanqing walked into an office under the leadership of his leader and met several other members of the mathematics proposition group.

Including Qin Yuanqing, there are seven members in the proposition team for this national mathematics paper.

Except for Qin Yuanqing, the other six people in this year's mathematics proposition group were selected from the proposition expert database established by the Examination Center of the Ministry of Education.

In this expert database, there is information about experts and teachers suitable for propositions. Most of these people come from well-known universities across the country, such as Yanda, Shuimu, Renmin University, Beijing Normal University, etc. There are also some teachers from well-known high schools who can participate in propositions.

In addition, some experts from educational and scientific research institutions are also members of the proposition group.

These three categories of people include all the members of the college entrance examination group every year.

This year is no exception. Qin Yuanqing and an expert named Gu Jun belong to universities. A female expert named Zhang Yan and two middle-aged male experts who are almost 45 years old are special mathematics teachers from key high schools, and the other two are gold medal mathematics lecturers from two major domestic scientific research and education institutions.

After the leader introduced everyone's information, he left the room and handed it over to Qin Yuanqing.

Qin Yuanqing sat in the main seat, crossed his fingers, and swept the crowd with calm eyes, saying: It is an honor to serve as the leader of the mathematics proposition group for the National College Entrance Examination, and work with everyone to complete the mathematics proposition work for this year's college entrance examination!

This is a mock paper for the college entrance examination that I issued last night. I asked Comrade Zhang Yan to make 6 copies and send them to everyone. The difficulty of mathematics in this year's college entrance examination will be based on the mock paper! Qin Yuanqing said.

Then he gave Zhang Yan the college entrance examination mock paper in his bag, which directly set the tone for the difficulty level of this year's college entrance examination.

Others didn't have any opinions. They were all in the field of mathematics. They knew Qin Yuanqing's mathematics achievements, and he could now be said to be an authority in mathematics.

So difficult? When Zhang Yan copied the papers and sent them to each expert, each expert frowned.

Team leader, is this paper too difficult? If the paper is given according to this difficulty level, I am afraid that the national mathematics average will drop by ten points! Gu Jun frowned slightly and glanced closely. He knew how difficult this simulation paper was.

Yes, team leader, according to previous practice, the difficulty of this year's math paper will be slightly lowered. If it is based on the difficulty of this simulation paper, it will be a question whether the national average math score will be 70 points by then! Lin Yulian It was also difficult.

Yes, I read the last question, and I'm not even sure I can get full marks! Xu Li, a gold medal lecturer from an educational institution, also frowned.

Educational institutions all study the real college entrance examination questions from previous years, strengthen training on the real college entrance examination questions, and improve students' test scores. But after Xu Li saw it, she felt that this was simply the most difficult thing in years.

Experts, we are clamoring for education reform and college entrance examination reform every year! We are all engaged in the field of mathematics and should know that students have different levels of talent, but when the difficulty is reduced to a certain level, this level of talent almost disappears. Qin Yuanqing smiled and said: Last year, there were three students in the Department of Mathematics of Shuimu University who got full marks in the college entrance examination, including the Department of Mathematics, but they could only get 60 points in the exam! This is worthy of our reflection!

Since my superiors invited me to serve as the proposition leader of the mathematics group just to explore, raising the overall difficulty of this year's mathematics paper is also an attempt! What we need to do next is to implement this move! Qin Yuanqing said Very calm, not angry.

It is true that the college entrance examination simulation papers he produced are much more difficult than the mathematics papers of the college entrance examination in previous years, but the difficulty is divided into levels, so that the strengths and weaknesses of talents can be screened out.

Seeing that Qin Yuanqing had set the tone and made up his mind, the six experts acquiesced.

After all, the leader of the proposition group has absolute power!

After reaching a consensus, let’s get down to business.

The proposition work of the college entrance examination can be roughly divided into three links.

The first link is predicate.

To put it simply, it is to build a test question bank.

According to the exam syllabus and the type of questions assigned to them, everyone in the proposition group will each come up with a certain number of questions with a certain degree of difficulty, and put the questions into the test question bank.

Then, the leader of the proposition group selects a specified number and difficulty level of test questions from the test question bank to form a set of official test papers and a set of alternate test papers.

After the first draft of the test questions is released, experts will be organized to discuss, refine the test questions, and reasonably estimate the difficulty of the test questions.

This is the entire workflow of the first phase of the entire proposition work.

This is what Qin Yuanqing is currently doing, assigning the types of questions and scope of examinations to everyone. As for the last question, Qin Yuanqing personally formulated the test questions.

Qin Yuanqing formulated a total of five questions. This question is also the most difficult question in the whole volume. All of them are a combination of functions and geometry. It is just a question of whether it is a circle or an ellipse, or the intersection or connection of multiple lines and circles.

Although the math group had two full weeks, Qin Yuanqing drafted all five questions at the end of the examination paper, including the steps and answers, in just one afternoon.

After drafting the questions, Qin Yuanqing uploaded them to the test question bank. When everything was finalized, the computer would then select questions to form the test paper.

The other people's propositions were much slower. It took a full week before they finally completed their own examination question body propositions.

Everyone spent another day comparing them one by one, and after confirming that they were correct, they finally reported to their superiors that they had completed the math papers.

After the review process is completed and reported to superiors, the Ministry of Education will then arrange a trial test. The so-called trial test means that a total of 200 people from the provinces across the country are selected to take the test in the camp. The scores of these people in their respective provinces are all at the mid-range level, which best reflects the true situation of the college entrance examination.

As a result, the exams for other subjects were okay, which was about the same as in previous years, but the exam for the math paper was terrible. Among the results of two hundred high school students, not one candidate received a passing score.

Among them, the one with the highest score was only 89 points, which was 1 point short of passing score. The lowest score is only a pitiful 50 points, only one-third of the score on the paper.

The other six experts looked sad, but Qin Yuanqing was very satisfied. It was indeed in line with his expectations, very good!

Qin Yuanqing ignored the pleading look on his leader's face and waved his hand, announcing that the mathematics paper was officially finalized!

The other six experts and leaders closed their eyes in pain. It is conceivable that when the college entrance examination begins, I don’t know how many candidates will curse the person who gave the question!

I heard that 300 monthly tickets can be used for lottery. There are still 20 votes left before 300 votes. Do you still have monthly tickets?

Beg on your knees!
