Chapter 1553
Professor Tang said, "After this month of study, I believe everyone has learned quite well. Your daily reflections were also written very well. Of course, how well you have actually learned still depends on the facts. I won't give you a lecture today; this morning, you will write a paper on the content you have studied during this period. The topic is: if you were the County Magistrate of Changshan, how would you develop Changshan? Start writing now, and hand in your papers in two hours."
After hearing Professor Tang's words, the students all took out paper and pens and began to write their papers with their heads down. Although they were somewhat reluctant to see Professor Tang leave, they knew even better how important this paper was to them; perhaps this would be a turning point in their future official careers.
Watching the students writing their papers with focused concentration, Professor Tang and Su Xinghui exchanged a smile, then sat down together on chairs to watch these students write their papers.
Two hours later, all the students handed their papers to Professor Tang. Every student said "thank you" to Professor Tang when handing in their paper and bowed to him, and Professor Tang would return the bow to every student.
In the afternoon, Su Xinghui and Professor Tang began to read these papers together.
With over ninety papers, it would take quite a lot of time to finish reading them. The two of them were reading very carefully, not just skimming through them, so it took even longer.
After all, this paper was to test the students' learning achievements over the past month, so they couldn't afford to be careless; that would be irresponsible to the students.
It should be said that the quality of these ninety-plus papers was generally quite good, and the two of them could discover some highlights in certain articles from time to time.
The two of them picked out some of the more excellent articles and set them aside, waiting to select the best of the best at the end.
The two of them read until past nine o'clock in the evening before finally finishing the evaluation of all the articles and selecting the most excellent papers.
