" Ding, ding, ding, ding." Although the bell for class rang, it did not interrupt the students 'impetuous hearts. There was a buzz of discussion coming from the classroom. A girl said to a boy,"Do you know? The results of the exam are out."
The boy was not surprised at all.""Of course I know. Do you know? This time, the first place was still Wang Mengqin, and the second place was still Xiao Hong.”
"Wang Mengqin is really amazing. She always gets first place in every exam."”
The boy replied with a look of jealousy and envy,"Exactly, exactly. What do you think she eats every day? Why is she so smart?”
The girl asked the boy,""Then do you know who the third place is?”
The boy said in a very uncertain tone,"It should be Tan Junyu! He studied so seriously. Perhaps it was Yu Jiaqian. She and Xiao Hong were sitting at the side. How could she not be good at her studies?”
"No, I heard them say that it's the new transfer student."”
The boy could not believe his ears and replied in surprise,"Him? How is that possible? You must be mistaken!”At this moment, a boy in the front row stood up and said to his classmates,"Quiet, quiet."
Jian Chuan whispered to Mei Jiao,""Who was the person who shouted for silence just now?”
Mei Jiao looked up at the man and said,"He is our disciplinary committee member, Luo Yu.”
Luo Yu was 1.78 meters tall. Because of his strong build, he was chosen as the class discipline committee member. He was good at basketball, and he was an indispensable player in every class basketball game. He had brought the highest honor to the class many times. It was a pity that because the third year of high school was too stressful, the school did not specially arrange a basketball game for the third year of high school in order to let them study seriously. His talent was gradually buried in it. Therefore, the certificate on the classroom wall represented his past glory.
The homeroom teacher slowly walked into the classroom and said to the class with a kind smile,"Look at you guys. Without me here, don't you know how to revise properly? I heard your voices from downstairs.”Then, she took out her report card from the textbook in her hand and said slowly,"In this simulation test, most of the students have tested your true level. The average score of our class has improved a lot, but some people have regressed a little. I won't say anything else. Now, I'll show you your results and rearrange your positions.”
The classroom was once again filled with buzzing discussions. The class teacher patted the desk and said,"Quiet, quiet."”Only then did the classroom regain its former peace. The form teacher said loudly,"The first place of the class is still Wang Mengqin, second place is Xiao Hong, third place is Jian Chuan, fourth place is Han Yingyu, fifth place is Yu Jiaqian, sixth place is Tan Junyu, seventh place is Han Siyu…eighteenth place is Duan Li…thirtieth place is Mei Jiao…The class teacher's voice filled the entire classroom, and there are many different voices coming from below. Some were happy for their results, while others were lamenting their failure.”
After some time, the form teacher finally finished reading the names on the list. She smiled and said to the class,"The ones who improved the most this time are Duan Li and Mei Jiao, especially Duan Li. She can be said to be a dark horse in this exam. At the same time, I hope that you will continue to work hard and maintain it.”
The homeroom teacher walked up to Tan Junyu and said,""Kid, you've regressed a little in this exam.”
The class teacher walked up to the podium again and said,"The other students did well." Now, the first thing I want to do is to change your seats.”At this moment, the classroom was once again filled with noise.
The homeroom teacher stood under the electric fan and enjoyed the caress of the wind. She watched as the students picked their seats in an orderly manner according to the rankings on the report card. Wang Mengqin still chose to sit in her original seat in the first row, while Tan Junyu sat next to her. Xiao Hong, Yu Jiaqian, Han Yingyu, and Han Siyu sat behind them. When the homeroom teacher saw that the top few students had voluntarily sat together, a satisfied smile naturally appeared on her face. He looked at Jian Chuan, who chose to sit in the fifth row. The deskmate next to him was Jiang Jing, who seemed to be unhappy. Mei Jiao and Duan Li sat behind Jian Chuan.
Mei Jiao kicked Jian Chuan." I thought you would choose to sit in the front with Wang Mengqin and Xiao Hong." Otherwise, you would have been sitting in the first few rows. Why did you choose to sit at the back? Could it be that you can't bear to part with us, your former deskmates?”
"Exactly, exactly. However, if you choose a seat like this, the form teacher will be unhappy.”Duan Li's words seemed to reveal a trace of worry.
Jian Chuan turned back to look at Mei Jiao and Duan Li and replied solemnly,""I think this position is more suitable for me.”
"When you came, the form teacher told you to sit in the front," Mei Jiao teased. Many students were not satisfied and did not agree. Why don't you take advantage of this rare opportunity to sit beside her and give them a good blow?”
Jian Chuan muttered to himself," Time will prove everything. Why should I care about those unhappy gazes? I find it good to live my own life and make my own choices."”
A boy said to Jian Chuan,""Hello, my name is Jiang Jing. As deskmates in the future, I hope you can give me some pointers.”
Jian Chuan quickly turned around and reached out his hand, saying,""Hello, my name is Jian Chuan. I don't deserve your advice. Please take care of me in the future.”
Jiang Jing wasn't tall. He was 1.55 meters tall and English was his specialty. At the same time, he was also the representative of the English class and was deeply loved by the English teacher. He was a fan of novels and liked to read some wuxia and youth inspirational novels. As long as he had a little time, he would secretly read his novel. He always told others that he had a great wish, and that was to write a novel of his own.
After the form teacher saw that the students had chosen their seats, she looked around the class. "Jianchuan, sit at the back. Can you see the words on the blackboard?" Can you hear me clearly?”
The students followed the homeroom teacher's voice and stared at Jian Chuan in unison. Jian Chuan seemed to feel flattered and stood up. He replied to the class teacher,""It's alright."
Hearing Jian Chuan's answer, the homeroom teacher showed some dissatisfaction,""If you can't hear what I'm saying, you can explain the situation to me directly. I'll think of a way to adjust it for you."
"Yes, I will," Jian Chuan said firmly.”
The homeroom teacher changed the topic and said to Jian Chuan,""Why didn't you choose to sit in front with Wang Mengqin and Xiao Hong? This way, you can discuss what you have learned together, and you can also further communicate and understand each other.”
Although Jian Chuan knew what the form teacher meant, he pretended not to understand and said,""However, I still feel that this position suits me better.”He did not know where he found the courage to say this.
Hearing Jian Chuan's words, the homeroom teacher knew that he had already made up his mind. He said disappointedly,""Oh, I see."
Mei Jiao nudged Jian Chuan, who mistakenly thought that Mei Jiao wanted him to keep his promise. Jian Chuan stammered,"Class teacher, can I ask you a few questions?”
The homeroom teacher said,"Uh, you little brat, you actually gave me this. Alright!" He didn't have much time to teach now. Then let's make this class a free activity. If you have any questions, ask them together!”
Jian Chuan hesitated for a moment," These questions have been bothering me for a long time. But I'm afraid that if I ask, you'll be angry. Now, I'm wondering if I should ask you.”
The homeroom teacher looked at Jian Chuan's sparkling eyes and put the textbook aside. She sat on Wang Mengqin's desk and said,""It seems like your question is quite mysterious. Since it has puzzled you for a long time, you should be bold enough to ask me! If one kept a question in their heart for too long, they would be bored to death.”
"You can't be angry, then, homeroom teacher," Jian Chuan said slowly.”
The homeroom teacher said,"You brat." Alright then! I promise you that I won't lose my temper at you. Now, you can tell me directly!"
Jian Chuan looked at the homeroom teacher, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled. He said softly,""What I want to ask is, why do we need to study?”
The homeroom teacher said calmly," Ah, what did you say? I didn't really hear you. You're a boy. Can you speak louder?"”
When Mei Jiao heard Jian Chuan ask this question, she whispered to him,""I was just joking with you yesterday. You really took it seriously.”
" You're really something," Duan Li agreed softly." You dare to ask such a question." Now, I see you in a different light again.”Seeing that Jian Chuan did not answer immediately, the form teacher saw that Jiang Jing kept her head lowered and said to him,"Jiang Jing, did you hear what Jian Chuan said?”
Jiang Jing continued to bury her head and didn't hear the form teacher calling him. Duan Li kicked him gently from behind. He stood up and said to Duan Li,"Big sister, I'm busy right now. Can you not kick me, Areyou
understand？”
Duan Li was a little confused by the sudden situation. However, she quickly adjusted her mentality and said softly to Jiang Jing,"Yes, I know. However, the form teacher is calling for you right now, and I see that you've been burying your head. That's why I…"
Mei Jiao gave Duan Li a thumbs up and said in admiration,""If I had been in such a situation just now, I would have gone into shock. You're amazing, Sister Li.“
Only then did Jiang Jing realize that Duan Li was hinting at him. She didn't expect that she didn't understand her good intentions and made her suffer. He quickly lowered his head and said,“Iamsosoryy，andthankyouvery
much.Iwishyouforgaveme，ok？”
The homeroom teacher raised her voice and said,"Jiang Jing, where are you looking at? You didn't respond when I called you just now. The moment you got up, you faced Duan Li. What are you doing?" Duan Li, what are you muttering about?”
Jiang Jing touched her messy hair with her hand and slowly turned around. She said to the form teacher,"Teacher, you called me, what's the matter?”
"Did you hear what Jianchuan said?"”
Jiang Jing rested her hands on the table and looked at Jian Chuan. She asked softly,"Jianchuan, what did you say just now? Otherwise, I might die.”
Jian Chuan took another deep breath and raised his voice,""Teacher, my question is, why do we have to study?”
The white clouds in the sky drifted forward with the breeze. The sky was so blue and so beautiful. Looking up at the blue sky, most of them were accompanied by white clouds. Those unpredictable clouds were either flowing or stopping, intentionally or unintentionally adding decoration to the blue sky. Looking up at the blue sky, it was an endless plain surface, and everything was blue or azure. At such a moment, other than purity and serenity, you could hardly find any suitable words to describe it.
The homeroom teacher looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window. She turned to the students and said in a low voice,"What's the point of studying? I think this question is not only troubling Jian Chuan, but also you guys!”The homeroom teacher looked at the students in the class and saw that they all lowered their heads silently. She looked at Jian Chuan and continued,""Before I answer your question, let me ask some of the students sitting next. What are you studying for?”
There was a noisy discussion below the classroom. After a while, it became exceptionally quiet again. The students continued to bury their heads. No one dared to raise their noble heads and look straight into the homeroom teacher's eyes.
The homeroom teacher glanced around the classroom and said calmly,"It seems that no one has taken the initiative to answer this question. Then I'll just randomly call out names. Students who were called out were not allowed to choose to remain silent.”
"Wang Mengqin, get up and tell me why you want to study.”
The other students were secretly happy when they heard that the form teacher had not called their names.
Wang Mengqin stood up, looked into the homeroom teacher's eyes, and said,""Studying can make me feel happy, and I hope to be able to get into a good university. Then, I'll be like you, my form teacher, and be a teacher to the future generations. This is the reason why I study.”
The homeroom teacher smiled and said,""Please sit down. Wang Mengqin studied to be a teacher and to benefit future generations.”
"Tan Junyu, just now your deskmate told us why he was studying. Why don't you get up and talk about it too?”The class teacher said to Tan Junyu, who had his head buried,
Tan Junyu scratched his forehead and stood up with his head lowered.""Reading makes one smart. I study to make myself smarter.”
The classroom immediately burst into laughter. The form teacher also laughed and said,"You will be smarter. Please sit down.”
The homeroom teacher looked at Yu Jiaqian who had her head lowered and remained motionless."Jiaqian, are you asleep? If you're not asleep, why don't you get up and talk about why you're studying?”
Yu Jiaqian slowly raised her head and tidied her messy hair. She stood up and replied,""This question is too profound. I didn't know how to answer. Can I choose not to answer the form teacher?”
The homeroom teacher asked in a rhetorical tone,"What do you think?"
Yu Jiaqian looked helpless. She thought hard for a while and replied,"I'm studying to get into a good university and find a good job.”
Tan Junyu leaned back and whispered to Yu Jiaqian,""At the same time, find a good man and marry yourself off.”Yu Jiaqian kicked Jian Chuan's butt and shook her head proudly.
The homeroom teacher didn't know why Yu Jiaqian shook her head. She was satisfied with her answer and was full of confidence. There was still some special reason. She smiled and said,"Please sit down. I wish you a good university and a good job.”
"Xiao Hong, why are you studying?”The homeroom teacher looked at Xiao Hong who was reading a book and said.
Xiao Hong put down the book in her hand and looked into the homeroom teacher's eyes. She replied with certainty,"" I study because I believe that 'knowledge changes fate, and education shapes the future'. I firmly believe that reading will make my thinking more wise and my life more perfect.”
The homeroom teacher nodded at Xiao Hong,""Yes, not bad. Please sit down. Xiao Hong studied because I wanted to believe in my own outlook on life.
"Then why are you studying, Han Siyu?”The homeroom teacher looked at Han Siyu as if she was avoiding her.
Han Siyu stood up and said nervously,""Scholar Huang…Ai He once said that there are two purposes for studying. The second was to make himself feel better. Therefore, I study to make myself feel better and easier to understand.”
The homeroom teacher smiled and said,"Yes, please sit down." Si Yu even knew how to quote famous scholars and indirectly express her own views. Not bad.”
"Jiang Jing, why are you studying?”The homeroom teacher noticed that Jiang Jing had her head lowered again. She shrugged and said.
Jiang Jing was glad that the form teacher only knew that he had his head buried and didn't know that he was reading a novel. He put his novel in the drawer, stood up and said confidently,""Studying can help me find a good job and shape a beautiful future for me.”
The form teacher did not comment on Jiang Jing's words."Please sit down. I'm inviting the last student to answer this question. Let's invite the students who have made great progress this time!”
Mei Jiao and Duan Li looked at each other. They didn't know who would be picked up to answer this question. Suddenly, the two of them asked nervously. That kind of aura couldn't be dispelled for a long time.
"Mei Jiao, what do you think of studying?”
Jian Chuan turned around and looked at Mei Jiao. He didn't know how she would answer. At this moment, he felt a little nervous for some reason. Duan Li seemed to feel very relaxed.
Mei Jiao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. She said calmly," There was once a person who said to me,'More or less, we all carry the vision and hope of many people'. I studied to live up to those people's vision and expectations. At the same time, he was living a brand new life.”
Jian Chuan remembered what Mei Jiao had said to him,""What's the point of forcing yourself to do something that you don't want to do with the eyes and hopes of others?”Now, looking at Mei Jiao, her eyes were filled with determination and her eyes were bright. She was no longer as melancholic as when he first met her. What made her eyes so determined? Was this the person in front of him that he knew? Jian Chuan let out a breath and smiled at Mei Jiao.
The homeroom teacher listened to Mei Jiao's words and repeated in a low voice,"'To live up to the expectations and expectations of others, and at the same time, to live a brand new self.' There's also the look in her eyes and the tone of her voice. This person was not like the previous student who cared about her studies. She did not care about other people's opinions and expectations. How could she say such firm words now, and her eyes were filled with determination? What made her change so much? Was it him?”
The homeroom teacher said to Mei Jiao with a kind face,""Please sit down. Just now, I heard a few of my classmates talk about why they wanted to study. I think what they said was quite good. Now, I'll briefly share my views.”
The form teacher said,"Studying is not just a matter for the students. Every modern person has to study, including me." The purpose of reading can be different. In my opinion, there are no more than three purposes: Increase Intelligence (Knowledge Skill), Increase Aspiration (Cultivate Will), Pleasure (Obtain Pleasure).”
The homeroom teacher looked at the students and continued,"In the words of the teacher from the TV series that you guys like to watch recently,'It's very important for you to study here. However, the most important thing is to let you know what kind of tomorrow you are studying here for. Because every day started today. If you don't know what you're going to do tomorrow, you're wasting today. Just like us teachers, we pursue high moral character and high sentiment. As for the score, it is just a process to reach the final goal. More importantly, we can use the score to further understand you. Now do you understand why you want to study?”
The students all looked at their homeroom teacher and nodded. "Teacher, there's a problem. I don't know if I should point it out.”
"What's the problem?" the homeroom teacher asked calmly.”
Luo Yu said slowly," I feel like what you're saying sounds like lines from a TV series. It sounds like the words of a teacher in 'The Sky at Eighteen.'”
The homeroom teacher smiled and said,"Student Luo Yu is still the most meticulous in observing these things." Don't just watch TV for fun. Sometimes, one had to use their heart to understand the meaning of some sentences. Although that was a TV series, I feel that it would be more direct and emotional to quote that teacher's words to people of your age. Students, do you still have any doubts about why you want to study?”
Luo Yu raised her hand and stood up. She said to the form teacher,"Can I talk about why I want to study?”
"Welcome," said the homeroom teacher.
Luo Yu said," Li Ka-shing once said,'The things you do for love depend on your position. The level of person you want to become depends on the level of ability you have.”
"Yes, you're right," the homeroom teacher said with a smile. What level and ability one possessed, one had to study hard.”
The students nodded again. The form teacher looked at Jian Chuan and said,""Jianchuan, your question has been answered by me and my classmates. Do you know why you are studying now?”
Jian Chuan recalled what he had just said. He finally quoted what the class teacher had said and replied,""Study? It's to let us know what kind of tomorrow we want.”
The homeroom teacher smiled and said,""Do you still have any questions?”
Jian Chuan stammered,""Teacher, do you think our studies are really useful?”
The homeroom teacher looked at Jian Chuan and asked,""What do you think?"
Jian Chuan naturally avoided the homeroom teacher's gaze and said with his head lowered,""I…don't know."
The homeroom teacher looked at the students and said with a smile,"As for whether studying is useful or not, at this moment, none of us know. Just like what the next step in life will be, we also don't know. Instead of thinking too much about the future, it's better to walk the path under your feet, don't you think so?”
"Oh," Jian Chuan replied stiffly.
The homeroom teacher listened to the bell and took a look at her phone."That was a quick lesson, all right! The class ended. Jianchuan, if you have any questions, come down and we can discuss further.”
"Alright," Jian Chuan quickly sat down and replied.”
Mei Jiao poked Jian Chuan's back with her pen and said to him,""I was just joking with you yesterday. Why did you take it seriously? When you asked the form teacher this question just now, it really made me break out in a cold sweat for you.”
"That's right, it's just a joke. You don't have to take it so seriously!" Duan Li chimed in.”
Jian Chuan pretended to be relaxed and said,"Well, I lost the bet." A man? He had to admit defeat if he lost. Besides, if I don't ask, you guys will point at my back and scold me in the future. I don't want that.”
Jiang Jing also echoed,"You're too bold, but I admire you very much. Only you dare to ask such a question. If it were me, I wouldn't dare."”
Jian Chuan touched his chest and said," Actually, I'm quite scared too. I'm still very nervous and my heart is still beating fast."”
Mei Jiao pushed Jian Chuan and said,""I think you're bold enough. Why are you still nervous? Hahahaha."
Jian Chuan didn't pay attention to Mei Jiao and just quietly thought about what had just happened. In fact, they didn't know why Jian Chuan wanted to ask the form teacher,""Why should I study?" It was not only because he had made a bet with Mei Jiao, but more importantly, he also wanted to know why he wanted to study.
