Chapter 83: Incomprehensible

Lu Yan He indeed had a habit when doing English reading comprehension questions: he would mark the corresponding places and key parts of each question in the original text, which made it convenient for him to compare back and forth. Who knew that Mr. Chen didn't just look at their answers, but also looked at their notes.

Fortunately, Mr. Chen didn't suspect that he had deliberately answered wrong, but naturally thought of a very reasonable excuse for him.

Lu Yan He said, "My vocabulary is indeed not good enough; I'm working on it."

Mr. Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, the progress is obvious. Keep it up. If there's anything you don't understand, come ask me directly."

Lu Yan He: "Thank you."

Mr. Chen turned to Bai Yu on the other side.

"Student Bai Yu, I see that you still haven't solved the key problem in doing this reading comprehension. You need to improve your reading and problem-solving speed." Mr. Chen's voice was not loud, and he was very gentle when talking to the delicate and quiet Bai Yu. "You answered the first few questions correctly, but the last two were wrong. It's obvious at a glance that you didn't have time to carefully judge the right and wrong of all the options before time was up. In English, in this reading comprehension section, your reading speed is crucial. You need to find a way to bring the questions to the original text to find the answers. I think you are still habitually reading the article first, then looking at the questions, and then going back to the article to find the corresponding positions, right?"

Bai Yu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she nodded.

Mr. Chen said, "You must listen to Teacher Chen. Your English is at the level of 130 points, but now you can only get 110 points. This is the reason. You always can't finish the test paper. Change your problem-solving habits."

"Okay." Bai Yu nodded.

Lu Yan He once again sighed that a teacher like Mr. Chen is truly rare and not easy to encounter.

He seemed to know clearly where each student's shortcomings were at the current stage and how to make up for them.

In the last ten minutes of morning study, Mr. Chen returned to the podium and said, "Students who got all the reading comprehension questions right don't need to listen to me; continue your own studies. Other students, listen to me briefly explain the problem-solving ideas for each question in this reading comprehension. Don't use stereotypes, thinking that the subject of English is just about memorizing words. Reading comprehension also has traps and routines."

Mr. Chen didn't explain every sentence and every word of the reading comprehension text in detail, but started directly from the questions, explaining how to break down the keywords of the questions, find the corresponding places in the article, and then explain how to choose.

"Generally, among the four options, two are very easy to eliminate; they are obviously wrong. But there is another option that is a trap. It looks like it has a similar meaning in the original text, but it is actually irrelevant to the question itself. At this time, you must see clearly what the question is asking. Don't let the question ask what the meaning is, and you choose what the result of the event is; don't let the question ask what the result is, and you choose what the cause of the event is. Do you understand what I mean?" Mr. Chen explained the trap thinking of the question setter and the key to solving the problem very clearly. "These words must be kept in your mind to remind yourself not to lose the points you could have gotten. If you lose the points you could have gotten because of carelessness, it's too regrettable. The words you memorized usually were in vain, and the questions you brushed were in vain. I feel heartache."

He made a painful expression of clutching his heart.

Everyone smiled knowingly.

Lu Yan He wrote down everything Mr. Chen said.

Actually, everyone knew it, but it hadn't been organized into such a regular summary.

Every subject has its common question-setting traps. Lu Yan He remembered that before he transmigrated, after the college entrance exam, when he checked the answers, several mistakes that shouldn't have appeared were made because of carelessness, losing points for no reason—at least ten points or more.

Therefore, now that he had the chance to take the college entrance exam again, Lu Yan He cared a lot about this aspect.

After the second class in the morning, the break was a little longer, twenty minutes.

The first and second-year students had to do morning exercises, but the third-year students didn't have to; they rested.

When Lu Yan He returned from the restroom, he saw Xu Zijun following Liu Qin to the office.

Then, very rarely, Xu Zijun didn't return to the classroom for the third class.

It wasn't until the third class was almost over that she came back, her eyes red again.

Only then did Lu Yan He realize that Xu Zijun must have encountered something.

He didn't even need to ask. At noon, after he and Li Pengfei finished lunch and returned to the classroom, someone well-informed had already figured out why Xu Zijun "disappeared" during the third class.

"She gave up her independent enrollment recommendation quota," Zhou Ziyu said with an exaggerated expression.

"Huh?" Other classmates expressed shock one after another. "Why?"

Zhou Ziyu shook her head and said, "That I don't know. Anyway, her dad came this morning."

Lu Yan He was also shocked when he heard what Zhou Ziyu said.

For a third-year high school student, an independent enrollment quota is like a movie project from a big director for an actor, or a good song for a singer; it's a fatal temptation.

Even if you only pass the independent enrollment interview of a university that requires signing an enrollment agreement, and finally choose not to sign and give up, no one will directly give up participating in independent enrollment before the final result comes out, because this is another bridge provided to you besides the single-plank bridge of the college entrance exam. No one will give up without even trying.

Why did Xu Zijun give up?

At this time, Xu Zijun entered the classroom.

Everyone went quiet and stopped talking.

This overly obvious difference made Xu Zijun notice something too.

Her head lowered even further.

Lu Yan He actually wanted to know why Xu Zijun did this.

But he had to leave school soon.

He had a show recording in the afternoon.

He arrived at the recording location an hour early for makeup and styling; the clothing was also provided by the show team.

He heard the person from the show team who was docking with him whisper to someone: "It's really been a long time since I've seen an artist who needs the show team to provide clothing."

Lu Yan He pursed his lips to hide his embarrassment.

This observational show was easy to record; there was no need to run or make exaggerated reactions.

The general content was to watch videos of ordinary people filmed by the show team in advance, react, and then chat, comment, and communicate together.

He was a guest, and he didn't know the situation of everyone on the show, so he spoke less.

However, some scripts and golden sentences had already been written for him by the screenwriter in advance, and he only needed to say them under the host's prompt to complete the task.

However, no one expected that a piece of content in the middle would cause a dispute among the guests in the studio. Everyone cast aside the scripts written by the screenwriters in advance and started arguing with true feelings.

This content also made Lu Yan He fall into deep thought. ===== CHAPTER 84 =====
