chapter 13 First in the test

by Luke 10:25,Oct 08,2023


After thinking for a while, Sylvan Wei couldn't figure out the reason and continued to correct the test papers.

Soon, his brows wrinkled again.

However, this time it was because of Marcus Lin's test paper.

It's not because Marcus Lin did poorly in the exam, but because he was very good.

146 points!

Excluding the two points deducted for the essay, there was only one unpopular multiple-choice question that was answered incorrectly.

Sylvan Wei couldn't believe this score.

In my memory, Marcus Lin seemed to have only scored over 80 points in the Chinese language test in the unified examination last time.

From over 80 to 146, the improvement is more than a star and a half!

Excluding Marcus Lin, the remaining highest score was only 136 points, a gap of 10 points.

Evil door!

Sylvan Wei looked up at the back of the classroom. At this time, Marcus Lin was doing a math exercise book with his head down, "Weird things happen every year, and there are so many today!"

After sighing with emotion, he clapped his hands and said, "Everyone applauds Marcus Lin"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead in applauding.

There was sparse applause, and everyone's faces were filled with question marks.

Applause?

What does it mean?

Sylvan Wei announced loudly, "The first place in this Chinese language test is classmate Marcus Lin He scored 146 points, which is 10 points higher than the second place classmate Ant Zhou. Isn't it worthy of applause and encouragement?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole class was shocked, and there were many doubts.

"What? Marcus Lin scored 146 points?"

"That's ridiculous. If I remember correctly, Marcus Lin scored 83 points in the Chinese language test at the beginning of the school year."

"Did you cheat?"

"Isn't it too much copying?"

"Funny, who did Marcus Lin copy? Theo Gu?"



Marcus Lin continued to work on the math exercise book, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Theo Gu on the side couldn't hold himself any longer and grabbed Marcus Lin's arm.

"Brother Mo, are you playing with me?"

"What are you talking about?"

Marcus Lin glared angrily, "My orientation is normal."

"..."

Theo Gu grimaced, "Last time I copied you on math, you got 18 points; today I didn't copy you, and you got 146 points. Isn't this just teasing me?"

Marcus Lin withdrew his arm, "As you said, last time it was math, this time it was Chinese; it's not the same subject at all."

"But you didn't do well in the Chinese language test last time?"

"Last time was last time, this time is this time."

Faced with Theo Gu's reluctance, Marcus Lin said calmly, "We have been apart for three days, so we should treat each other with admiration."

Seeing that Marcus Lin didn't want to explain too much, Theo Gu stopped asking for trouble.

Ant Zhou, who was sitting in the first row, stood up and said, "Teacher, I suspect Marcus Lin is cheating. Everyone knows about his Chinese scores. Even if they improve in a short period of time, they won't improve that much. "

These words express the sentiments of many students.

The students with average grades were fine, but the top students with good grades were very unhappy with Marcus Lin high score this time.

They can allow themselves to lose to other top students, but they are not allowed to lose to Marcus Lin

In their inherent impression, Marcus Lin is a complete scumbag!

Because of this, when Zhou Wenhao took the lead, he instantly received a lot of echoes.

"Yes, you improved by 63 points in such a short time? You won't believe it!"

"It's really not right."

"Everyone knows Marcus Lin's level. With his true ability, how could he score such a high score?"

"Cheating on this kind of quiz? It's not a shame!"



No matter how others questioned it, Marcus Lin didn't take it to heart at all and didn't even bother to raise his head.

In his eyes, it seemed that only the exercise book in front of him fully demonstrated what it means to remain unmoved.

Sylvan Wei saw Marcus Lin's reaction in his eyes. He had lived for most of his life and had seen countless people of all kinds.

Judging from Marcus Lin's reaction alone, he already had a judgment in his mind.

"Quiet!"

As soon as Sylvan Wei spoke, the classroom quickly became quiet.

He glanced at Ant Zhou and said, "Sit down first."

Ant Zhou looked unwilling, but he did not dare to disobey.

Sylvan Wei glanced over, "The test paper for this Chinese language test is a question that I spent nearly a week on. It is impossible for anyone to know the content of the test paper in advance."

"You question Marcus Lin's score and say he cheated; then I want to ask you a question, how can you cheat to get a score of 146?"

No one answered.

Even Ant Zhou fell silent.

yes!

Even if he were asked to take the open-book test, he would not have the confidence to get a score of 146.

But when he thought that Marcus Lin, a scumbag, actually ranked first in the class, he felt as if he had eaten a fly.

As a study committee member, Ant Zhou’s grades in all subjects were ranked first.

Looking at the entire senior year of high school, he is also among the top three in the entire grade.

Today, he was overshadowed by a scumbag, and it was Marcus Lin who he hated the most.

This feeling, don’t mention how uncomfortable it is.

Seeing no one to refute, Sylvan Wei continued: "I hope everyone will change this extreme thinking and be more encouraging and less suspicious of their classmates."

Then, he explained some important knowledge points on this test paper.

after class.

Sylvan Wei put away the teaching materials and said, "Marcus Lin, An Natelie An; you two come to my office."

Marcus Lin nodded, stood up and walked forward.

An Natelie An was a little confused and followed Marcus Lin out of the classroom.

Sylvan Wei glanced at the two of them and said, "Follow me."

After taking just two steps, Marcus Lin felt someone tugging on his clothes and the corners of his mouth raised.

An Natelie An quickly came to Marcus Lin left side and glanced at Sylvan Wei's back, "Why did the teacher ask us to go to the office?"

Marcus Lin thought of the way Sylvan Wei looked at An Natelie An just now, and guessed uncertainly: "Probably, maybe, maybe your behavior of controlling points has been discovered."

"ah?"

An Natelie An panicked and stood there helplessly.

Marcus Lin asked, "How many points did you get in the last Chinese language test?"

"68 points."

"Not this time, I asked you last time."

"68 points."

Marcus Lin held his forehead and said, "Sister, this is Chinese language. Do you control the points so accurately?"

If I remember correctly, An Natelie An’s score in last week’s math test was also 68.

She seems to have a special liking for this number?

An Natelie An lowered his head, "The second choice big question will not score, and then leave the last reading comprehension and composition blank. If you answer all other questions correctly, you will get 68 points."

"..."

At this time, Marcus Lin was in quite speechless mood.

Controlling points and gaining experience?

See you soon!

The two walked into the teacher's office. Sylvan Wei pointed to the two wooden stools in front of the table and said, "Sit down."

Not far away, Oliver Yan asked in confusion, "Mr. Wei, did these two little guys make a mistake?"

"That's not true."

Sylvan Wei smiled kindly and said, "Teacher Yan, your class is next. Can I use the time of these two little guys for the time being?"

"If Mr. Wei opens his mouth, I dare not refuse."

Oliver Yan readily agreed, got up and left with the teaching materials.

Sylvan Wei's old face showed a bit of curiosity, and he lingered on Marcus Lin for a while, and finally landed on An Natelie An.

"Classmate An, should you explain it to the teacher?"
