Chapter 477: Insidious pull question, Arctic route
Dialect looked at the last question in the test paper:
Taking the shortest route from Shanghai, China to London, UK, which oceans, straits and canals will we pass through? (Detailed answers are required in the order of sailing)
This question is very tricky. If you follow the requirements of the question, the shortest route should be the Arctic route, but there is no canal in the Arctic route.
Therefore, this route should be a conventional route currently used internationally.
But the problem came again. The test question said it was the shortest route.
The shortest is the Arctic route.
How to answer?
First of all, you have to guess what the teacher who asked the question is thinking.
There is also the last question, why did he ask it like this.
Obviously, the last question given by this question-writing teacher was just to increase the score.
So you have to think about how to answer in order to get the right number.
After thinking about it, Fang Yan finally stopped writing on the last question.
The invigilator and other candidates also noticed.
They all cast curious glances at him.
Wasn't it awesome just now?
Scratchy writing.
Why are there any questions that I can’t solve?
Fang Yan didn't pay attention to the outside world at this time, but touched his chin and tried to figure out the true intention of the teacher who asked the question.
For such an important exam, the person who set the questions definitely didn't write a single word in excess.
Soon, those who observed Fang Yan saw that Fang Yan twisted his neck and wrist.
Picked up the pen again and started writing quickly.
At this moment, I only saw him writing:
Answer: Starting from Shanghai, the ship first sails into the East China Sea, then sails southward through the Taiwan Strait and enters the South China Sea. Then the ship continues sailing southwest and passes through the Strait of Malacca. After passing the Strait of Malacca, it enters the Indian Ocean. The ship continues along the Indian Ocean. The voyage will pass through the Gulf of Aden. After passing the Gulf of Aden, it will then pass through Manchuria. The German Strait enters the Red Sea, and the ship sails north along the Red Sea to the Suez Canal in Egypt. After passing through the Suez Canal, it enters the Mediterranean. The ship continues sailing westward in the Mediterranean to the Strait of Gibraltar. After passing here, the ship enters the Atlantic Ocean and along the Atlantic Ocean After sailing, you can finally reach the waters of London, England and dock.
After finishing writing, Fang Yan paused and wrote again:
The above is the regular route of the Suez Canal. If we follow the Arctic route and do not pass through the canal, we will take the theoretical shortest route. The ship starts from Shanghai and sails into the East China Sea. After exiting the East China Sea, it enters the Pacific and sails all the way north. It will pass through Bering. The strait enters the Arctic Ocean and is subsequently used by ships in the Arctic Ocean The Soviet Northeast Passage sails through the Barents Sea, Kara Sea, Laptev Sea, East Siberian Sea and Chukotka Sea. After leaving the Arctic Ocean, it enters the Rowe Sea. From the Rowe Sea, it continues sailing southward into the Atlantic Ocean and continues in the Atlantic Ocean. Sailing eastward, we finally arrived in London, England through the English Channel.
The 11,000-kilometer shipping distance from Shanghai to London, UK, via the regular Suez Canal route takes about 30 to 40 days. The transportation time from East Asia to West Asia via the Arctic route can be shortened by about 40% compared to the traditional route.
Fang Yan finished writing the last question on the test paper and screwed the cap on his pen.
Then he glanced at his watch.
I found that it had just passed an hour, which was slightly longer than the morning political session.
For the next hour, Fang Yan just sat in his seat with his eyes closed to relax.
The invigilator didn't have any objection when he saw this scene. As long as Fang Yan didn't sleep and snore and disturb other people, he couldn't care less if he closed his eyes and calmed down.
When other candidates saw Fang Yan like this, some showed admiration, while others showed a bit of disdain.
They thought that for someone who wrote it so quickly, the answer would not be much better.
The current behavior of closing your eyes and concentrating is pure pretense.
Soon everyone stopped paying attention to dialects and began to write their own test papers.
On the last question, everyone’s answer was the route of the Suez Canal. They were just confused about whether to include all the regions it passed through.
Only the dialects write more about the Arctic route.
It was also explained clearly that it was the shortest route in theory, but it just didn’t need to go through the canal.
The invigilator suddenly realized it after he quietly saw the answers to the dialect's test paper.
The shortest route is indeed this one.
This sub-question is really an insidious way of setting questions.
Although the score only accounts for 20 points, if you miss one answer, 10 points will be lost.
Don't underestimate these ten points, BJ has 80,000 people taking the exam, and one extra point can dwarf a large group of people.
Merit-based admissions are no joke.
It really is one more point, and the result will be different.
Then the invigilator looked at other people's test papers and found that no one wrote about the Arctic route.
Although I don’t know what other exam rooms are like, in this exam room, only Fang Yan wrote. Just thinking about it will tell you how many people can be fooled by dialect.
……
“Dingle bell bell…”
At half past three, the end of exam bell rang.
The invigilator said:
"When the exam is over, all candidates will immediately stop answering questions and put the test papers on the table."
"Then starting from the door, everyone leaves the examination room in an orderly manner."
Then a group of people started walking out of the classroom.
After Fang Yan stood up and left, the people behind him glanced at his test paper, and finally stopped at the last question.
Suez route, Arctic route.
These two names immediately shocked the candidates.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
His footsteps stopped, almost causing him to be bumped into by someone behind him.
"What are you doing?" the person behind said dissatisfiedly.
The former turned his head and lost his voice:
"The last question, the shortest theoretical route is the Arctic route!"
As soon as these words came out, those who heard them felt as if they were struck by lightning.
Everyone was stunned on the spot.
People who haven't gotten up have already picked up a pen and want to fill in the words "Northern Route".
The invigilator shouted at this time:
"Take it as if I don't exist, right?"
A few people over there didn't dare to write anymore and kept it away honestly.
Then he muttered with regret:
Why didn't I think of that?
The invigilator urged:
"The exam is over, don't linger! Leave quickly!"
After the group of them went out, the news that there were two answers to the last question in the liberal arts course spread quickly.
For a while, the liberal arts students were asking each other on the playground, wondering if anyone had written about the Arctic Route.
It turned out that most people didn't write, but some did.
Except for dialects, each examination room has one or two.
However, they didn't know the specific area, and they didn't write it clearly. They just remembered the Arctic Route later and added its name.
Someone comforted himself:
"It's okay, it's okay. No one has written anything, so the scores can't be improved. Anyway, admissions are based on merit, so just treat this subject as a full score of 90 points."
On Fang Yan's side, the younger brother and older sister were rejoicing that they had thought of this route in the last half hour.
It's just that I didn't write down the detailed route.
But if you write your name, you can get some points.
Chen Kaige, on the other hand, looked proud. Because he had watched so many movies, he remembered the complete Arctic route.
Especially when most of them didn't write anything, he was even more happy.
Now he even has the feeling that the college entrance examination is nothing more than that.
Maybe if I can really pass the exam, I will be really proud of myself.
It's a pity that his wife took the science test. Otherwise, if Sun Jialin didn't write it and he did, wouldn't it be better?
Only Fang Yan looked calm and listened to the chats of the people around him.
He is very satisfied with himself.
At the end of the first day today, he performed steadily and ended the two exams perfectly.
His family is pretty good, and everything is going according to his plan.
