I was born in a rural area in the 1970s. My family conditions were very poor. I lived in a leaky house. My father was working as a township cadre and was rarely at home. I still remember following him in the middle of the night when it rained heavily. The scene of mom scooping water together at home. I broke my leg when I was in the fifth grade of elementary school. At that time, my family’s biggest wish was that my legs would recover enough to pick up excrement on their own, so that I could farm and support myself. Surprisingly, my legs recovered very well, and my family raised their expectations, hoping that I would not only be able to pick shit, but also ideally go to college. When I was in junior high school, I used my lunch break to generate income: I went around looking for toads, pinched them, squeezed out the venom on their heads, dried them, and sold toad venom. I remember selling it for five yuan a day, which was a huge sum of money at the time.
Although I know that the college entrance examination is the most important step for me to jump through the dragon gate, and everything should be aimed at this in the three years of high school, but I was young and energetic, and my instinct controlled me. In my freshman year of high school, I ranked first in the school. After I was admitted to high school with a score of 2, I immediately began to indulge my own temper. I started a literary club, organized writing competitions, ran my own newspaper, and participated in singing competitions. Wherever I went, all the female students in the school would shout that I was very disgusting. As a result, I naturally fell in love prematurely, my grades plummeted, my ranking dropped to the second last in the class, and I don’t know my ranking in the school.
After I transferred to another school, I was assigned to a large class of more than 100 people. I sat in the right corner of the last row of the classroom. In the summer, the poor students sitting in the back row of us all went to night study hall with their shirts off, and it felt like they were in a bathhouse. At that time, I vaguely felt that I would not be able to pass the college entrance examination and my future would be doomed if I continued like this. However, I couldn't stop the car and could only go on day by day. It is difficult to have self-discipline when you are young. Once you indulge yourself, there is no going back. Because I had been a "guard with a knife" in my previous high school and had various experiences in the name of literary creation, including but not limited to puppy love, I could no longer study quietly. Later I decided to join a physical education class.
There are more than 20 people in the physical education class, and my quality is considered below average. I trained for half a day every morning and got up before dawn to run. After half a year, I actually reached 100 meters in 11.9 seconds. Although my grades are pretty good, I am still far away from the standards required to be admitted to a sports school. Shockingly, a very important opportunity has arrived: recruitment. The so-called recruitment, first of all, the body must be qualified. If the body is qualified, the score in the cultural class will be much lower than the regular college entrance examination admission score. What’s even more shocking is that I went to take the physical examination with the mentality of giving it a try. After passing the simple initial examination in our county, I didn’t take it seriously. I went to Wuhan to participate in a strict, formal and complicated formal experience and passed it! This completely changed my destiny. In short, others need a college entrance examination score of at least 500 points to go to college. But based on previous years' experience, I only need to get a score of 400 points to become a military pilot. of university undergraduates.
After passing the formal physical examination, it won’t be long before the college entrance examination. After nearly three years of squandering youth and time, I tried my best to change the state of sitting shirtless and chatting in a large classroom with more than 100 people. Facts have proved that a lot has changed, and my grades are constantly improving, but can I I don’t know how to get good grades. In the blink of an eye, it was time for the college entrance examination. Under the huge expectations of my family and school, I came to the county from the small town in a completely confused state, preparing to take the college entrance examination.
My family gave me about thirty yuan (it was so long ago that I can’t remember clearly) to prepare for the college entrance examination. Because I lived in the home of my classmates in the physical education class, all the money was saved. I used the money to buy some relatively high-end and fashionable-looking clothes in shopping malls in the city, which played an important role. Because my grades are not good, I hope to find ways to take shortcuts in the examination room. These clothes can play a key role.
My simple thought at the time was that if I was dressed in rags, the invigilator would probably think that I had no background and would arrest me as soon as he discovered any small tricks on my part. If you dress better, maybe he will be jealous and give you face. With the simple mentality of a rural child, I went to the examination room.
What I didn't expect was that I was assigned to the last row on the side. Because it was an AB paper exam, the candidates in front of me, around me, and my exam papers were all different. Even if they gave me the exam paper, I couldn't see it after reading it. Useless. I could only copy papers written by students diagonally opposite to each other, such as left front, right front, left back, and right back. And because I was sitting in the last row, the only person I could use was the girl in front of me on the right.
The first test is Chinese. I have run a literary club and published novels. Chinese is my only strong point, and I passed the exam fairly well. After finishing the Chinese language test, all other subjects were my shortcomings. The barrel theory says that the shortest board represents the entire level, but I only have one long board in Chinese.
After taking the first course, I met a male classmate from my first high school who was also my good friend. I was surprised to find that the knife I gave to my first girlfriend was hanging on his belly, but I didn't tell anyone. We exchanged our feelings about the college entrance examination in a friendly atmosphere. He believed that I have a different status now and should persuade the girl diagonally across from me to cooperate with me to get good grades in the exam and bring glory to our region. After listening to his advice, the knife-carrying classmate and I actually found the girl and said that we were admitted to the military academy and would not compete with her. If it was convenient, we hoped that the papers could be placed closer to me. So that I can see. She looked at me strangely and didn't give a specific answer. Maybe it was because she saw my classmate with a knife on his belly and didn't dare to say anything.
When it came time for the second exam, the girl threw herself almost on the left side with her whole body, completely blocking everything on her desk, preventing me from seeing anything. Wearing gorgeous clothes, I squinted at her back hatefully. Finally, I gave up the idea of ??peeking and started answering the questions seriously.
It was the summer of 1990. After the college entrance examination, I returned home to help with farm work. At that time, the TV station was rebroadcasting "Journey to the West". I was sitting at home watching TV and cutting ramie (it was a cash crop introduced by my father and his leaders from other places, which made our family rich). Suddenly, I heard that Firecrackers rang out at the door of my cousin Yu Chunrong’s house not far away. According to the rules, this should be when she received the college entrance examination admission notice, and her family was celebrating. At that time, my heart sank into the ice cellar, because she and I were in the same high school, and there were firecrackers at her door but not at my door, which only meant that I was not admitted. But this feeling in the ice cellar lasted less than a minute, and I suddenly heard the sound of firecrackers at the door of my house. There was a buzz in my head, and I rushed out and saw an uncle setting off firecrackers in front of my house. He told me that he had just returned from school and that Yu Chunrong and I had both been admitted.
In an ecstatic mood, I immediately rode my bicycle to the school to get the admission notice, and then began the process of picking up guests everywhere. Our family is going to spend a lot of money to entertain relatives and friends, and I am responsible for inviting my classmates and friends. I didn't dare to invite my first girlfriend, but I went to invite the classmate with the knife on his belly. Because when I arrived at that classmate’s house, I was still wearing the fashionable clothes I bought during the college entrance examination (this was the only set of good clothes), but he invited me to go swimming in the pond. The good clothes got wet, so I left them at his house to dry for the time being. , I went home wearing another set of his clothes.
But on the day of the banquet, the classmate who brought the knife forgot to bring my good clothes when he went to the banquet. After the banquet, the whole family began to take me to the ferry to cross the river, and then board the train from the county to Wuhan. Along the way, every family came out to set off firecrackers to celebrate my admission into a good university. Our whole family walked with pride on the bumpy paths in the village where sewage flowed across the streets, chickens and dogs jumped. Because I had been out in the sun for many days to entertain guests, and my good clothes were forgotten at home by a classmate who carried a knife, I looked very thin, dark, and unattractive. My brother was then fat, tall, and mighty. He wore well-fitting clothes. He looked very elegant when he walked beside me and my parents.
People along the way pointed at my brother and whispered: Look, he is Yu Fei! pilot!
My father and I boarded the green train in Wuhan. Because the weather was hot and tickets were hard to buy, my father had to sit on the ground all the way to Beijing. As a result, he got a big pustule on his buttocks. After we visited Beijing for a few days, my father sent me to the military academy in Baoding to register. Since then, I have embarked on a road of solitary struggle that has lasted for decades.
More than thirty years have passed. Looking back now, I am very glad that I was admitted to college. The role of the college entrance examination is very important. It will bring people into a new stage of growth, allow a child to broaden his horizons, make friends, improve his qualities in an all-round way, and allow him to enter the adult stage. If I had never gone to college, my whole state of mind might have stayed at the stage of "wearing nice clothes can scare the invigilator." However, the college entrance examination is not the only important thing. The most important thing for people is still to find their own focus and have their own unique skills. The barrel theory talks about the need to align the short board with the long board, but the key to success in life is to have a long board that is much higher than other short boards. Although I had many other dreams back then, my life was destined to be writing. This was something I had understood since I was a child, so over the decades I have never forgotten to hone my writing skills, and I have never Stopped writing. Now, in other respects I am a retarded person. I don’t even know the day of the week, the zodiac sign of my child, etc., but I can write. Life is nothing but this. #mostmotivatingmefilm# #2022 College Entrance Examination Season#
