Chapter 290 Our Faith

Because this oral competition only gave each school two entries, eight members will be eliminated in tonight's finals.

Coincidentally, both He Wanqing and He Lilan entered the final.

In this competition, Yu Liya deliberately adopted an open style, allowing students to watch the game, but it must be kept quiet.

The first row under the podium is the ten finalists. At this moment, everyone is inevitably a little nervous.

After going through several selections, the ten people were familiar with each other. As soon as He Wanqing sat down, someone took the initiative to greet her.

He Wanqing smiled and nodded.

He Lilan sat in the most side seat, ignoring anyone.

The others knew that she was cold and arrogant, and they didn't want to make fun of themselves, so they all speculated about what problems would arise this time.

After testing randomly for a while, I predicted who will win the qualifying spot this time.

Everyone agreed that He Wanqing would definitely win one of the places.

After being selected several times, everyone found that not only was she fluent in spoken English, she was on par with the students in the English department.

What's even more rare is that she always has her own unique insights into the questions given by the teacher, which is far deeper than their understanding and convincing.

Even Yu Liya is very optimistic about He Wanqing.

He Lilan listened to everyone complimenting He Wanqing, so she couldn't help snorting heavily.

"I said, you are all college students, can you have some quality, this is a competition, can you stop making noise?"

Her voice was exceptionally cold, and her face was full of disdain.

He Wanqing rolled her eyes.

The game hasn't started yet, and the noise from the students behind is getting worse, why don't you stop them.

Several people exchanged glances, pursed their lips, ignored her, and continued talking about their own topics.

Seeing that everyone didn't take her seriously, He Lilan's heart suddenly became angry, and she stood up abruptly.

"Are you all deaf, I said please keep quiet!"

The auditorium suddenly fell silent, and no one made a sound, but she was so loud that everyone in the auditorium could hear her clearly.

Just in time, several teachers were entering the arena one by one, and they were startled when they saw He Lilan lose their temper at other contestants.

At this time, whispers came from the group of students watching the game behind the auditorium.

"Who is this person, why is he so crazy?"

"You don't know, she is a famous ice beauty in the history department, He Lilan. I heard that her eyes are on the top of her head, and she doesn't even pay attention to the people in her class."

"Oh, it turns out that this is the famous ice beauty. How good-looking I am. How can this compare to the beauty of the history department?"

"That's right, it's annoying to see someone so arrogant."

He Lilan's face turned red and then turned pale. She didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the judges, so she could only hold back her anger and sat back.

The game starts soon.

The topic was announced by Teacher Leah.

Introduce the splendid civilizations of various countries in the world and their impact on the country and the world. Countries and themes can be selected arbitrarily.

Each contestant is limited to 6 minutes, and each judge participates in scoring, with the highest score being [-] points and a total of [-] points.

The two with the highest scores will be able to represent Dongguang University in the oral English competition for college students in Southern Province.

The order of the ten contestants will be determined by drawing lots.

After drawing lots, He Wanqing came in second to last.

Coincidentally, He Lilan was the last one, right behind her.

The topic of this competition is not unpopular.

In her previous life, people with good spoken English were everywhere, and it was not uncommon at all.

In this era, people who speak fluent English are rare, and such people are basically familiar with foreign cultures.

So most of the contestants couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard this question.

The contestants will speak on the stage in the order of drawing lots.

Perhaps Yu Liya is in charge, and she is also the organizer of this competition, so the themes of the speeches of the first eight contestants are all foreign civilizations.

The impact of Roman civilization on the entire Western culture is selected, and the Renaissance that is proud of in Western history is introduced.

There is a selection of the significance of the ancient Indian civilization to the entire South Asian subcontinent, and it also leads to the Aryan civilization.

There is also a slanted sword, choosing the architectural structure of the unpopular ancient Egyptian pyramids, and the inheritance of the pharaoh system.

The contestants are all elites of Dongguang University, with profound knowledge, all kinds of references, and their English is fluent and natural.

There were bursts of applause in the auditorium from time to time.

The scores of the eight contestants are not low, from 45 to 48 points, the score is very tight.

Wen Nanbo, who ranked third from the bottom, scored 49 points.

If nothing else, he has already secured a qualifying spot, and the rest depends on the performance of He Wanqing and He Lilan.

Soon it was He Wanqing's turn to play.

She got up gracefully, walked to the podium, looked down, and saw all the students looking up at her.

At the entrance of the auditorium, Qin Dingkun gave her a cheering gesture.

He Wanqing suddenly felt better.

At this time, Qin Dingkun had a power experiment class, but he couldn't come originally.

Unexpectedly, he still made time to watch her play.

He Wanqing smiled sweetly, with a charming face and picturesque eyebrows, which made the students in the audience have a good impression of her.

Although the students all knew that she had a partner, they still named her the new flower of Dongda University.

"Good afternoon, teachers and students! The theme of my speech this time is the garden civilization of our country.

As we all know, my country is an ancient civilization with brilliant records in all walks of life, especially garden culture.If counting from the time of the Yin and Shang Dynasties in my country, garden culture has a history of at least 3000 years in my country, and it is one of the birthplaces of garden culture in the world..."

Listening to her eloquent speech, He Lilan showed a look of contempt on her face.

There is nothing to say about it, but it is just planted with some green trees and flowers, plus a few gazebos and artificial hills, she has long been tired of seeing it.

If you want to really talk about gardens, you have to say that European gardens are the most beautiful, and castles and manors are so beautiful that the Palace of Versailles is the most typical representative of European gardens.

"There are different styles of gardens in the north and south of my country, but my favorite is the Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens, the ancient large royal gardens, and the Qingming Garden."

As soon as she said this, almost everyone in the audience was shocked.

Historically, the Qingming Garden was burned down by the invading forces of country E and country F, and the precious cultural relics in the garden were either robbed, destroyed, or lost without a trace.

And Yu Liya's mother is from country F.

Because Yulia is a very good teacher, almost all teachers and students avoid mentioning what has been done in the history of Western countries.

Unexpectedly, He Wanqing would not shy away from speaking in public.

When He Lilan saw her being stupid, a smile appeared on her usually cold and unwarmed face.

Hmph, this is a topic you chose yourself, and it will anger Yu Liya, so don't expect to get a high score.

It is not certain that he can be the bottom of the ten people.

However, in this way, she has more chances to qualify.

She looked up at Yu Liya's face as calm as water, and couldn't help secretly admiring it.

This teacher is really good at self-cultivation, even if he is slapped in the face in public like this, he can act calm and calm.

However, this is also good, so as not to give He Wanqing a low score later, people will say that she is revenge.

On the stage, He Wanqing continued to speak impassionedly.

"The decline of the Qingming Garden has made our nation deeply understand the truth that if we fall behind, we will be beaten.

I heard that before going abroad in the late Qing Dynasty, international students would swear in the Qingming Garden that they would go to the West and know the strategy of self-improvement in our country, so they would have nothing else to do.Carrying the future of the country, absorbing all the science of foreigners, going on a long distance of [-] miles, leaving the country of our parents, no regrets!

Many countries say that our people have no beliefs. If belief refers to religious worship, then this is indeed correct.

However, what I want to say is that if belief only refers to religion, it is too narrow. What our people believe in is self-cultivation, family harmony, state governance, and world peace.

It is the decline of the Qingming Garden that made us integrate the saying that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world into our blood, and this is the belief of our people! "
