After a simple rebirth

Fu Ying worked part-time for two days during the Dragon Boat Festival and her mother gave her a 20 yuan bonus. With the money she saved from buying things, her piggy bank already had 35 yuan. But Fu Ying still didn't plan to eat breakfast. She had to save money when she could. When she really had to spend money, that little money would be like throwing it into the water without making any sound.

The school bus arrived at school as usual. There was no need to go back to the classroom. Fu Ying saw that several classmates were already standing at the door of the classroom. A few others found a staircase and sat down to wait. The others disappeared.

This scene reminded Fu Ying of the various types of candidates she saw every time she took the self-study exam to enter school: some were determined to review the materials, some were so nervous that they didn't know what to do, some were just playing around, and some were just participating for the sake of going through the motions.

Fu Ying thought about it and decided that now that she was the squad leader, she should fulfill her responsibilities.

So she stood at the place where the school bus dropped off students, took out the Chinese language materials, put her schoolbag at her feet, and started to read the materials. She remembered that the first subject of the exam was Chinese.

Sure enough, after a while, the school bus came, and her classmates got off and saw her standing there, and came over to ask her why she was standing there.

"I'm reminding you that you don't need to go upstairs. Just review here and wait for the exam room to start." Fu Ying felt that there must be some idiot who insisted on going back to the classroom, but couldn't get into the classroom without the key. The exam was about to start, so there was no need to waste energy climbing the sixth floor.

Those who came to school on a day or whose school bus had just arrived heard the same answer when they asked Fu Ying. She also reminded them when they didn't. The teacher on duty knew that they had an exam today and that Fu Ying was guiding the students, so she didn't say anything. Some students in Class 2 of the third grade went back to class. Their classroom was on the third floor and they had keys, so it was not that troublesome to go back.

During the break, students from the lower floors all ran out to the playground to have fun. Fu Ying went to get some water, only to find out that the only place in the school where hot water could be found was next to the kitchen on the first floor!

When I came back, the teacher had already organized the students to line up in the lecture hall, waiting for the exam to begin.

Everyone left their backpacks outside and went in with their school cards, pencil cases and water bottles.

Fu Ying's student number is 07. She is arranged in order of last name, and behind her is No. 07 from Class . They sit cross-legged, with the seat next to them empty, and then there are students next to them. The lecture hall is large, and there is more than enough space for students from two classes.

The exam schedule is written on the big blackboard in the lecture hall, and there is also an alarm clock, so that students can see it easily.

联考第一天，8:00-10:00语文，10:15-11:35历史，13:00-14:00政治，14:15-15:45英语

联考第二天，8:00-10:00数学，10:15-11:15化学，13:00-14:20物理

In other words, the first day is for liberal arts exams, and the second day is for science exams. It seems that the first day has more exams and will be more tiring.

There are actually three teachers invigilating the exam, but that's normal. Originally, one class should have two teachers, and now their two classes are combined, so there must be 3-4 teachers.

After counting the number of students, we found that two people from Class 2 had asked for leave, and all the students from Class 1 were present. The very serious male teacher emphasized the discipline and began to distribute the test papers.

Fu Ying thought that only the middle school entrance examination used answer sheets, and the joint entrance examination used the test paper directly. Unexpectedly, the district was quite formal this time, with two answer sheets and one test paper.

I wrote down my name and class first, copied the exam rules, and then took a quick look at the questions.

I felt that it was not difficult overall, and it might be because I just reviewed Chinese more recently, so I was able to answer questions quickly. When it came to writing, I started to think about it, and roughly listed the direction and outline.

Fu Ying's test-taking habits have been fixed since the beginning of the self-study exam. If there is an answer sheet, she will finish and fill in the multiple-choice questions first, and then slowly consider the short-answer questions and essays, answering one question at a time to prevent running out of time.
