I just want to be a quiet scholar

Chapter 62 You've Played Your Cards Well, Right?

"Shen Qi, please read the question." Sun Erxiong pointed to the big screen.

New questions are switched on the screen, whether they are ordinary or excellent, students who come to Yanda Math Camp must take a common sense test.

The screen read: "Which of the following four routes goes through the Pope's Meridian: London-Mumbai, London-Hong Kong, London-New York, London-Rio de Janeiro?"

"Shen Qi, please give your answer." Sun Erxiong asked.

"Well..." Shen Qi stared at the screen and fell into deep thought. This common sense test question is only a simple sentence, but it contains a lot of information.

I have been to London. Its geographic location is 0 degrees east longitude, and the Greenwich Observatory is located in London.

Mumbai is an Indian port, not to mention Hong Kong, everyone knows where it is, sailing from London to Mumbai, Hong Kong, the ship sails east.

New York is in the United States, Rio is in Brazil, sailing from London across the Atlantic to New York, Rio, the ship sails west.

So the most crucial question is, where is the papal meridian?

The meridian is also the line of longitude. Today's prime meridian runs through Greenwich, London, England. Greenwich time is called standard time.

The papal meridian should be a prime meridian that once existed in history. Taking the Greenwich meridian as the reference line, where is the longitude of the papal meridian?

This common sense question is not only related to geographical common sense, but also historical common sense.

"Shen Qi, have you considered it?" Sun Erxiong asked.

"I... think about it." Shen Qi made a quick calculation in his mind, using the exclusion method, he drew a longitude that can move east to west on the world map, set it as the Pope's meridian, the starting point is London, and it moves eastward, such as passing through Hong Kong Must go through Mumbai first.It moves westward, and if it passes through New York, it must pass through Rio first.So Mumbai and Rio can be ruled out, and Hong Kong and New York can be chosen.

"My answer is that the London-New York route passes through the Pope's meridian." Shen Qi gave the answer. When the Pope ruled Europe, it seems that Western colonists hadn't invaded the East, right?

Erxiong Sun nodded: "In history, this meridian of 46 degrees west longitude is called the Pope's meridian, so only the London-New York route continues westward after passing 46 degrees west longitude. Congratulations, Shen Qi, for your correct answer, please sit down. "

"Yan University's common sense is not simple." Zhou Yuan sighed with emotion that a generalist who knows astronomy from the top, knows geography from the bottom, understands the ancients and the present, and academic cutting-edge may be able to make a difference in Yanda.

"Student Zhou Yu'an." Sun Erxiong pointed to Zhou Yu'an this time and asked a common-sense question about poetry.

Who is the author of the poem "Spring tide brings rain late, and there is no boat in the wild crossing"?
Li Bai, Du Fu, King Luo Bin, Li Shangyin, and Wei Yingwu were chosen from five.

Zhou Yuan was blindsided by a Wei Yingwu. He had heard of the four poets before, but he did not know who Wei Yingwu was, so he chose Wei Yingwu.

"Yes, Zhou Yu'an, please sit down. Next, let's ask Ou Ye to introduce himself."

The only girl in the math camp stood up. She had long black hair, and her skin was extremely white, even pale.Her facial features are delicate, her eyes are slightly sunken, her lips are thin, and her lips are bright red, and the red is a little purple.

"Look closely, the only girl in our camp looks a bit like... a zombie?" Zhou Yuan shuddered inexplicably.

"It's a bit similar." Shen Qi admitted that she couldn't say that this girl was not good-looking, she probably belonged to the dark fairy tale department.

The girl's voice was a little hoarse: "My name is Ouye, Ou is Ou of Euler, and Ye is Ye of Fourier. Thank you." A very brief self-introduction, no matter where you come from, what awards you have won, and what interests you have. carry.

"Ou Ye, great name!" Sun Erxiong was full of praise.

Zhou Yuan: "Oh-yeah?"

Shen Qi couldn't help but glance at the girl: "Oula's Ou, Fourier's Ye, Ou Ye, the name is too good, she may be destined to learn mathematics."

Zhou Yu'an: "Che, if I say that, am I destined to be the local owner?"

Shen Qi smiled and said, "Yes, Zhou Papi, you are the most stingy boy I have ever seen."

After Ou Ye introduced herself, she took a common sense test, a common sense question in biology, and she quickly gave the correct answer.

Not long after, all the 26 students in the camp were introduced, and everyone had a preliminary understanding of each other.

"Okay, we have gotten to know each other. Unexpectedly, in September next year, all of you here will be classmates of Yan University's mathematics major. We have carried guns together and shared the window together. This is the strongest friendship. Destiny, classmates." Sun Erxiong said enthusiastically.

"According to the practice of Yan University, the common sense test of our math camp has ended. Next, we will conduct a professional test. Yes, we will test your best subject - mathematics. I believe everyone can't wait." Sun Erxiong said lightly. Arrived, "There will be a score statistics in the mathematics major test, which is also a routine thing. Don't be nervous. Please look at the big screen."

"Sure enough..." Zhou Yuan became nervous.

"The statistics of the grades are for the purpose of being divided into classes when they officially go to university?"

A new topic is projected on the big screen:
"In an endgame of fighting the landlords, the cards in the hands of the landlord, peasant A, and peasant B are as follows."

“地主：2、K、Q、J、10、9、8、8、6、6、5、5、3、3、3、3、7、7、7、7。”

“农民甲：大王、小王、2、A、K、Q、J、10、Q、J、10、9、8、5、5、4、4。”

“农民乙：2、2、A、A、A、K、K、Q、J、10、9、9、8、6、6、4、4。”

The topic is gone here.

All 26 students, including Shen Qi, were staring at the projection screen with incomparable concentration.

Although I don't know what specific questions the instructor Sun Erxiong wants to ask, the students who can sit here are all smart people, at least in the field of mathematics.

The students analyzed the conditions given by the questions in various mathematical ways in their hearts. There was silence in the classroom, and they could listen to the needles.

Sun Erxiong gave the students 5 seconds to analyze the question, and then broke the silence: "Please listen to the question, pay attention, I will only ask the question once. The question to ask is, if all three players have clear cards and Under the premise of not playing the wrong cards, it is the landlord's turn to play the cards, who will be the first to play all the cards in his hand?"

"This is a rush answer setting. Students who have calculated the result, please raise your hand. I will give you another 5 seconds to calculate the result. After 5 seconds, if no one raises their hand, all will be awarded 0 points!" Sun Erxiong suddenly became serious.

All the students were shocked. Anyone can fight the landlord, but to calculate the result in such a short time requires extremely strong memory, calculation and deduction ability.

5 seconds passed quickly.

brush!
brush!
Two people raised their hands almost at the same time.

Shen Qi and Ou Ye.

Sun Erxiong hesitated for a second before making a choice: "Ouye raise your hand a little faster, Ouye, you answer first."

Ou Ye said three words lightly: "The landlord wins."

Shen Qi was a little annoyed, because the result of his mental calculation was that the landlord was the first to finish the cards, and he raised his hand a half beat slower.In fact, no one could tell whether it was fast or slow, and it was hard to tell with the naked eye who Shen Qi and Ou Ye raised their hand first.

Sun Erxiong nodded: "Ou Ye got 10 points for the right answer, everyone else gets 0 points, next question!"
