From Hengzhong to Tsinghua University

Chapter 20 (19)
I never thought that I would work so hard, and the meal time was shortened from 10 minutes to 5 minutes. In order to save time, I basically ate noodles at noon for a whole semester.Going to the toilet between classes, running back and forth.Remember history when waiting for exercises, and repeat what you just memorized in your mind when running exercises.Pinch yourself when you lose your mind in class... Perhaps in the eyes of others, this kind of life is terrible, but without such hard work, how can you get the grades.Sister Yan often taught us that there is no unbearable suffering, only unbearable blessings. People always have to suffer for a while, but it is impossible to suffer for a lifetime.After working hard again and again, my grades finally stabilized and basically rose steadily. In the next semester, my grades became even better.Until the college entrance examination, I was very calm. In the third year of high school, I worked very hard, and my grades were all in the past. I believe that the hard work will not be in vain.After the results came out, I was successfully admitted by Peking University, and I came to the shore of Weiming Lake, under the Boya Tower, which I had dreamed of for a long time.

The reason why I am able to achieve today's results is that I should be most grateful to Hengzhong.Although Hengzhong's militarized management has been complained by many people, but after my personal experience, I can solemnly say that although this environment is not necessarily the best learning environment, but without this environment, we must not be able to learn. With such excellent results.Our running exercises are uniform, and the slogan reflects the belief of Hengzhong people in pursuing excellence.Our teachers are hard-working, busy from morning to night without a word of complaint. Our self-help learning cases are all the essence, which enriches our resources for exam preparation. It is precisely because of such a school that we can achieve excellent results.We are grateful to Hengzhong, he not only made us talented, but also taught us how to behave.The [-]-mile hike in the first year of high school sharpens fighting spirit; the coming-of-age ceremony in the second year of high school understands the meaning of responsibility; We performed our youth to the fullest.

Hengzhong, the place where dreams take off, Hengzhong, takes me to Qingbei.

That year, I was 17 years old
429 Ban Pang Lin Li
Admitted to Peking University in 2012
No one will be 17 forever, but someone will always be 17. ——Inscription My third year of high school accompanied me when I was 17 years old.In the years that have been praised and chanted by countless poets, what accompanied me was not poetry-like romance and child-like innocence, but the hardships of studying hard in cold windows, the shock of unsatisfactory exams, and never giving up on my dreams. .

Tired and happy
Day after day, we repeat the three-point and one-line life of classrooms, cafeterias, and dormitories. It is monotonous, a little boring, and a little irritating.Writing essays is a very common thing. From the moment you open your eyes in the morning, endless essays fly in like locusts, making you breathless.And we can only entertain ourselves in these articles: Everyone is responsible for protecting the forest. Without these articles, how can we contribute to the great rivers and mountains of the motherland in the future.At the end of the day, Chinese, Mathematics, Foreign Languages, and Comprehensive Literature are divided into four parts. On an 8-size paper, small characters the size of ants are printed.Some test foundations, some test material comprehension, one question has multiple understandings, and one understanding has multiple answers. Mathematical questions require every step of the way; comprehensive essay questions require clear thinking, clear lines, and precise theory; Chinese The question naturally requires a neat roll and a brilliant writing.Subjects have different requirements. It is of course difficult to cover all aspects of the four subjects.After writing so many articles, it would be hypocritical to say that I am not tired.However, when we finished these chapters one by one, when we smashed the difficulties one by one, and when the college entrance examination was coming, the teacher told us to cherish the last few chapters in our hands, because when we did one, we lost one. Suddenly, I discovered how brave and invincible we are who can climb over the mountains of papers and challenge the limitless.That kind of pride, that kind of satisfaction is far from being able to match a few levels in online games or a few delicious meals.Although many people oppose the topic sea tactics and slander the endless chapters, when we have experienced, tried, and walked through it firmly, we can appreciate and enjoy the hard work and happiness in it. We are 17 years old, very tired, but very happy.

Be a flower, bloom with blood
Many people compare the college entrance examination to a war without gunpowder, or to a crowded single-plank bridge with thousands of troops and horses.In front of it, no one dares to underestimate it and deal with it with a game attitude.On the way to the college entrance examination, there are many trials and hardships, some of which may be insignificant, but some are enough to give you a hard punch and knock you to the ground, to test whether you can wipe away the blood gushing from the corner of your mouth, and fearlessly reappear. get up.In the face of the college entrance examination, the biggest blow to me is the failure of the exam, especially when the college entrance examination is coming, three mock exams have been defeated in a row, and I have dropped from the top ten in the grade to the 60th and 80th grades...Facing the three years of high school Unprecedented poor grades in the exams, my heart seemed to be emptied all of a sudden, and I felt like I was floating in the clouds. In addition to fear, my heart was more suspicious of myself.Teachers always say that the few exams before the college entrance examination determine the level of your college entrance examination. Such results almost ruthlessly declared my final fate in the college entrance examination.Even the teacher who usually trusted me the most began to secretly doubt my true ability.Fifteen days before the college entrance examination, I seemed to be thrown from the hot summer into the cold wind in shorts. I was shivering from the cold, my lips were blue, and I lost the courage to move on.In desperation, I called my mother's phone, hoping to get encouragement from her.After listening to my cry, my mother said cheerfully, I saw your grades on the computer. Although you did not do well in the exam this time, you performed well in the three subjects of language and mathematics, and there are still bright spots.The biggest mistake lies in the comprehensive literature, is it because the time is not well grasped?After the exam is over, it is a thing of the past. The key is to sum up experience and check for omissions and make up for vacancies.Have something delicious to eat at night, and reward yourself for working so hard.After listening to my mother's words, I felt much calmer. I took out the test papers of the three mock exams, re-done them carefully, and reclassified the topics of each subject according to the knowledge points in the textbooks, and converted the answer routines into my own thinking. The method is to record the reasons for the mistakes and the lack of knowledge points in the wrong question book, and then keep it in mind, and strive to get full marks when doing these papers for the second time.After finishing this work, I tore up all the mock exam papers, forgot all the unhappiness of failure, and devoted myself to the last fifteen days of preparation.After going through this difficult journey, when I look back, I find that failures and setbacks are nothing but "wumeng majestic mud pills" for the brave. A wide avenue is carved out of the thorny road.The greatest significance of setbacks is to teach us how to avoid them next time.The old man Bing Xin said that the flower of success, people are only envious of her bright beauty when she is successful, but at the beginning, her buds were soaked in tears of struggle and sprinkled with blood rain of sacrifice.A flower that blooms in blood will become more confident, more mature, and more dazzling after being baptized by blood and tears.When the results of the college entrance examination were announced, I got the seventh place in the province and the fourth place in the school.When I received the admission letter from Peking University, I told myself that after three years of ups and downs in high school, no matter how big the setbacks are in the future, as long as the backbone is still there, as long as the ambition is still there, I will go on , never admit defeat, never give up, like a flower, full of blood.

always follow the footsteps of the sun

I have always admired sunflowers, wherever the sun shines, there will be smiling faces there.Ideals are like the sun, and I am like that sun flower.Because I have a dream in my heart, I persistently walk on the road I chose, and I have never regretted it.My biggest dream is to become a diplomatic ambassador who travels all over the world and show the Chinese people to the world.I have had this dream for ten full years. No matter how hard or difficult it is, as long as I think of my dream, there will be an unknown force that supports me to the end.I have always regarded Li Zhaoxing, a poet-like diplomat, as my role model. When I knew that he was a top student who graduated from the Department of Western Languages ​​of Peking University, I made up my mind to be admitted to Peking University, to make myself very good, and to emulate Li Zhaoxing.When I was admitted to Hengzhong with the No.1 score in the school, I told myself that three years later, I would enter Peking University from here.In the course of these three years, there have been tears and bitterness, and there have been short-term losses, but more of them are the excitement and longing that are getting closer to the dream.I often ask myself, what will I be doing a few years from now? Maybe I have become a diplomat and contribute my strength in my own post, maybe I have enough ability to be a master in the international arena.No matter how many setbacks I have encountered in the past three years, I never forget to remind myself that all glory cannot be separated from today's struggle. No matter how beautiful the ideal is, it will be illusory if you don't put in the effort. Only by living in the present can I have enough ability to realize the take-off of life.Fighting for dreams, what a sacred word, maybe this process is very painful and difficult, but as long as I dare to withstand the heavy pressure, I firmly believe that the sunflower that smiles at the sun will bloom beautifully, because she Have the courage and unyielding to laugh at the wind and rain.

because I have you
I have always known that I am not fighting alone. By my side, there are comrades-in-arms who are advancing as bravely as me, and teachers and relatives who give me strength without regrets. They are silently cheering me up. Give me nourishment.

I still clearly remember the blow to me from the failure of Peking University’s self-enrollment. Due to various factors, I was full of confidence and failed to get Peking University’s lower score.After hearing the news, I was very disappointed, and my original expectations suddenly disappeared.For several days, I couldn't lift my spirits. During countless breaks, I lay silently on the desk and stared blankly at the blackboard, like a bored frog, puffing out my cheeks and rolling my eyes until the white Stare at the chalk writing until it gradually blurs, waiting for the bell to ring.My good friends saw the pain and loss in my heart. They were unwilling to bring up self-enrollment in front of me again, for fear of bringing back my unhappy memories, but they were even more unwilling to see me depressed like this, so they kept Looking for the right way to encourage me.Finally, at noon on the third day when I knew the result of self-enrolment, when we were having lunch together in the cafeteria, a good friend scooped up a slice of bitter melon with a spoon. After eating bitter gourd, everything feels very sweet. No one is unfamiliar with the idiom of bitterness and sweetness. Lao Pang, although you failed the independent entrance examination, which is considered painful, but with your strength, you can be admitted to Peking University. You don’t need to rely on these extra points. We all believe that with the accumulation of this failure, according to the principle of hard work and reward, you will definitely pass the college entrance examination, and you may even be the number one. With us cheering you on, you are still afraid What!" After listening to their words, I seemed to have found the sun that had been secluded for a long time in the clouds. The original unhappiness gradually disappeared with the wind. My tense life has brought a strong warmth, which gave me the motivation to continue working hard.

"In your current state, if you want to go to Peking University, just dream about it." Every time I failed the exam, the old class would repeat this sentence in front of me over and over again.Many people think that the teacher is too unkind to me. In fact, I know that what the teacher said about me is a manifestation of her impatience.My old class is not tall, but his temper is famously violent.The old class is very strong, and she never wants to be behind others, and she doesn't allow the slightest mistake in the students she loves.As her favorite student, she has higher demands on me than others.Although my performance in the last three mock exams disappointed her, she never let her disappointment affect my fighting spirit. I have a large number of special approval.At first I didn't know her aggressive method, her criticism made me hold my breath in my heart, I always muttered to myself when she criticized me, wait and see, I will definitely be admitted to Peking University to show you.In the last high school years, I studied like crazy and moved forward desperately, not only for the long-term wish, but also for her to see my nirvana with her own eyes, and to get the kind of happiness of revenge for her with grades.However, when the college entrance examination was really over, I walked out of the examination room and walked towards her who was welcoming the candidates. I suddenly understood that everything she did was never to humiliate me, but to encourage me not to give up in a different way from others.At the class reunion later, she told me that people live to breathe two words, the so-called exhale, take a breath, the so-called inhale, take a breath, the teacher knows you are a child with ambition, so I will repeat Stimulate you so that you don't bow to your grades or to any classmate whose grades are temporarily better than yours.Although her alternative way of encouragement made me suffer in the process, it finally gave me the strongest heart and indomitable self-confidence.

Have you eaten well recently?Be sure to pay attention to rest.Don't skip meals, wash your hair with hot water, don't use cold water, you will get sick... Every time you call your parents, before you even open your mouth, the reminders from your parents keep calling like machine guns.My home is more than 200 kilometers away from my school, and I only have less than 24 hours to go home once a month. I usually have to wait in a long line at the phone booth outside the teaching building to call my parents, but this is not the case. Affect the communication between me and my parents.My parents hope that I will always be happy regardless of whether my grades are good or bad, so they never criticize me because of my ups and downs. They always give me just the right encouragement when I am most frustrated, and let me know that even if I fail the exam, It's just that there is a small ditch encountered on the way forward, as long as you use a little force, you will step over it.Whenever I fail the exam and go home, I tell my mother: Mom, I am not happy today, I want to eat something delicious.Mom never said anything else, let's go, let's go to KFC.When I got home after eating and drinking, I had already left the disappointment and troubles of not doing well in the exam. At this time, I took out the exam papers to analyze the reasons for the mistakes, and faced up to the facts and reasons for not doing well in the exam, so as to prepare for the next time. Lay the groundwork.During the holiday after the college entrance examination, I passed by a middle school and saw a mother tear up the child’s paper in front of everyone because the child failed the test. The child next to me was crying like tears. I suddenly found that How lucky I am to have my parents who understand me and love me so much. It is their silent support that accompanied me through the most difficult year of the third year of high school.

Cangyang Gyatso once said, whether you see it or not, you will be there, never leave, never abandon.Because of you, because of you, I have gained my own touch and happiness in the most beautiful 17 years old.On the day of the college entrance examination, my 17-year-old officially ended.I stepped in and became a legally responsible adult.The beautiful 17-year-old was accompanied by pain and happiness in the third year of high school. I have gained too much, too much... Lin Zhiying sang in the song, we had common expectations in the rainy season when we were 17 years old, and we once hugged each other tightly. Together.This year, I was 17 years old. This year, I worked hard for my dream. This year, I stood side by side with my comrades-in-arms, and my teachers and relatives.The past will never come back, such as youth and years.However, when we have truly enjoyed and cherished everything that has passed away, the things that have passed away with the wind will become our best memories.

No one will be 17 forever, but someone will always be 17.I hope that every 17-year-old boy can enjoy this golden age of fighting for dreams and life!
