Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 123 Second Monthly Exam Results

After evening self-study, Zhou Jing went to find Gu Jia to run.

Gu Jia also bought a bicycle. The rented house was very close to the college, so it was more convenient to ride a bicycle. After receiving the news that Zhou Jing had left school, Gu Jia went to the college in advance and ran to the playground first.

Zhou Jing rode his bike into the college, rode to the outside of the playground, locked the bike and went in.

After entering the playground, Zhou Jing did not contact Gu Jia, but ran on the track. After running less than one lap, he saw Gu Jia's figure and slowed down beside Gu Jia.

"How many laps has the master run?"

"More than two laps."

Gu Jia talked while running.

"Master, come on!"

After Zhou Jing finished speaking, he left Gu Jia and ran ahead.

Gu Jia looked at the boy's back and didn't feel as bored as before.

As usual, Zhou Jing ran for ten minutes to warm up, and then went to the fitness area to do pull-ups.

"What color do you prefer?"

The cold wind was blowing, and Gu Jia looked at the boy's bare neck and asked.

"It depends on what it is. I like black stockings and pink and purple underwear."

Zhou Jing doesn't have any particular favorite color, including his clothes. He likes white T-shirts and shoes, black pants, and black and white socks. Considering that white socks are difficult to wash, he buys more black socks.

"What kind of weird things are in your head, you little brat? Don't you care about your identity at all?"

Gu Jia was stunned after hearing this, and went to the horizontal bar and twisted the boy's waist.

"What else can boys think about besides work and girls? What about you girls?"

Zhou Jing let go of the horizontal bar and landed on the ground.

Gu Jia was speechless.

Apart from work, girls probably only think about men. Others may not know about them, but it’s like this with their besties and college roommates. When they chat, more than five out of ten sentences are about boys, and they will also turn their heads and tilt their heads when they see a handsome guy.

"What color scarf do you like?"

Gu Jia said directly.

"A darker color, Master, would you like to give it to me?"

"Look at your bare neck. I'm afraid you'll get frozen if you run with me."

Gu Jia had never given anything as a gift to a boy before, so she didn't know how to do it.

"Master still loves me."

In fact, Zhou Jing has two scarves, both in his university dormitory.

It was getting late after running, so the two rode their bicycles home. Gu Jia's bicycle was a classic girls' model, pink, and full of girlishness. When riding, Gu Jia sat upright on the seat with her waist very straight. Just looking at her back, she looked like a girl.

"Master, have you gotten used to riding a bicycle after driving for so long?"

Zhou Jing rode his bike on the center side of the road.

"What's there to be uncomfortable with? I rode for three years in junior high school and three years in high school."

Gu Jia didn’t want to live in the school dormitory during junior high and high school, so he always rode a bicycle.

“No wonder the technology is so good.”

Arriving at the intersection of Renmin Road, Zhou Jing took a detour to send Gu Jia to the community first. "Go back and let the master know that you are safe."

After watching the boy leave, Gu Jia entered the gate of the community. She suddenly felt empty in her heart. It was a bit lonely for a girl to live alone in a rented house. She was a bit scared to turn off the lights in such a big house.

Sometimes the stray cats outside howl like children in the middle of the night, which is very creepy, especially when I need to get up in the middle of the night. I can't sleep if I don't get up, and I'm scared to go to the bathroom alone when I get up. It may be that I have a psychological trauma from watching horror movies in the past. When I am alone in a dark place, I always feel that something is following me. Even if I don't see anything when I look back, I will be scared. If I don't look back, my nervous pace will inevitably quicken.

So Gu Jia bought a basin specifically to put in the bedroom at night for convenience. Being single is indeed not a long-term solution for a girl.

Zhou Jing had no time to write novels these two days because he was marking papers during the day. He stayed up late at night to write. He needed to save more manuscripts this week. He needed to go to Tangdu on the weekend. The graduation thesis group had an appointment with the tutor for dinner on Saturday night.

The thesis group tutor has a total of eight students, six of whom have found jobs. Next year, they will need to ask the tutor to revise and guide their thesis via email. This method is more troublesome for the tutor. Several students have made an appointment to invite the tutor to dinner in advance, and also to have a pre-defense, hoping that the tutor will be patient and not let them run back and forth.

Undergraduate thesis does not seem to be very rigorous and is also very dependent on the supervisor.

The next day was Tuesday. The weather was fine and Zhou Jing went for a run as usual in the morning. He got up at six o'clock as usual, washed, changed clothes, and looked in the mirror to make sure his hairstyle and clothes were neat before going out.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for the math test."

When he entered the campus and met Liu Hanyu's younger brother Liu Ze, the boy took the initiative to greet Zhou Jing.

"Thanking me is useless. Learning on your own is the most important thing. Your math needs to be improved."

Zhou Jing didn't want to help Liu Ze cheat, but he couldn't stand it anymore and went against his principles.

"I always feel sleepy during the first class in the morning, and there are a lot of math classes in the first class."

The young man felt ashamed.

"You need to find a solution as soon as possible. You are a day student, so bring a cup of coffee in your thermos in the morning and drink it before the first class to see if it helps. Or you can eat some sour fruit before class, like an apple."

Students like Liu Ze are not uncommon. It has little to do with the teacher's teaching method. Some students feel drowsy while standing in class. This must be a problem of the students themselves, and they need to find ways to overcome it.

It is almost mid-November and the north is completely filled with a bleak scene of late autumn. There are only a few leaves left on the big willow trees on campus. The remaining half-yellow and half-green leaves on the branches are as fragile as the hair of a bald man and flutter in the wind.

In the past two days, some students in Class 1 and 2 of Senior High School were obviously a bit lazy. They were not late for physical exercise, but they arrived at the playground in a hurry. They were out of breath as soon as they arrived at the playground before they started running, and their hair was still messy. It was obvious that they got up late.

"Some students haven't behaved well these past two days. It's understandable that you feel tired recently, but I never encouraged you to stay up late to study. If you turn off the lights and rest on time, you won't be so tired."

After the exercise, Zhou Jing kept them and talked to them for a few words, hoping to put an end to their laziness in time.

"The street lamps are lighting your future path despite the severe cold. Don't lose yourself in the warm trap of the bed and the illusion of beautiful dreams."

Zhou Jing glanced at the street lights behind his class and continued.

"Teacher Zhou is so talented."

The students were impressed by the talent of their head teacher. If this sentence was included in the composition, it would definitely be a highlight. The attentive students silently memorized the head teacher's words, thinking that they might use them in their future compositions.

Yang Wenwen, who walked behind Zhou Jing, was a Chinese teacher. Sometimes she felt ashamed that she was not as talented as the boy. Although the boy was ranked first in Chinese class that year, Chinese grades cannot fully represent a person's talent. The boy has both ability and talent. If he can be a teacher with peace of mind, he will definitely become a famous teacher.

"Disband."

After Zhou Jing announced the disbandment, the team applauded and only dispersed after applauding.

The marking of the second monthly examination papers has been completed, and the teachers exchanged the examination papers in the morning.

Zhou Jing got the math test papers of Class 140 and Class and added the scores of his own class first. He looked at them roughly before calculating the scores. He saw that the scores were obviously not as good as the last time. The highest score in the class was . However, this test paper was difficult and the overall scores dropped.

The first monthly exam was too simple for fear of undermining students’ confidence, so the questions were mainly simple, designed to test students’ basic knowledge.

The difficulty level has been increased this time, and it is at the regular difficulty level for the monthly exams for first-year high school students. The purpose is to test the depth of students' mastery of the knowledge points they have learned at this stage.

As the head teacher and math teacher, Zhou Jing doesn't care too much about the grades of other subjects. He only cares about math scores. The students in Class 2 are quite competitive. In this monthly exam, they successfully beat the experimental class, Class 18 of Grade 11, in math scores.
