Chapter 357: Entrance Examination
Ping An Industrial Zone.
There are still some coarse gravel on the land that has just been leveled. Although it is a bit rough, it does not have much impact on today's exam.
Guo Shoujue and Li Junhua were standing on a slightly higher foundation that had just been built, with a blackboard covered with a red cloth behind them.
Judging from the color of this red cloth, it must have been dyed just last night, and the color has faded a little.
Under the foundation is a piece of land that is going to be used as a factory workshop. It is very spacious and has 47 tables on the ground. Their sizes are not consistent. Many of them are round tables borrowed from fellow villagers, and some are even wooden plank tables that have just been nailed together.
All of this highlights two words: rough.
It is already early winter, but the wind in Jin is still very biting, blowing on everyone's face like a knife.
Fortunately, there was a coal stove next to each candidate, which could dispel some of the cold and allow the shivering candidates to keep warm so that their hands would not become so stiff that they could not write.
Guo Shoujue also suggested to Yu Ye whether they should let these candidates take the exam indoors. If one or two of them were to freeze to death, it would be a huge loss.
Yu Ye said lightly at the time: "If they are not allowed to experience the difficulties of starting a business, they will not cherish this career.
Didn’t you also complete the exam in a state of fear?
Compared to you, they are already much better."
Guo Shoujue remained silent. He could not refute Yu Ye's reasons.
Guo Shoujue came back to his senses, rubbed his numb hands, and said loudly: "You are all elites selected by the Northwest Headquarters. On behalf of the Liaoyuan Arsenal, I would like to welcome you all.
Dear students, there is a piece of white paper on each of your desks. This is your answer sheet.
Next, please look at the question. "
There were three sentences in total: a greeting, an introduction, and an announcement of the test questions. It was simple and there was no nonsense.
As the red cloth was lifted, the test questions were revealed to everyone.
Question 1: Write down the first section of the declaration.
Question 2: Trigonometric function calculation.
Question 3: Geometric proof.
Question 4: Calculation of partial differential equations.
Question 5: Force analysis of slider.
Question 6: Simple calculation of momentum.
Question 7: Briefly describe Maxwell's equations using equations.
Question 8: Briefly analyze the concept of pH value.
Question 9: How to prepare ammonia industrially.
Question 10: The Gettysburg Address, translated from English into Chinese.
After the tenth question, there was a full text of the Gettysburg Address written in cursive English by 15 students from the first batch who were studying foreign languages. The handwriting was very beautiful and fluent.
The last question, additional question: Briefly describe the theory of relativity using mathematical methods.
hiss!
All 47 candidates in the room gasped in unison. Apart from the whistling north wind, no other sound was heard.
Everyone stared at these eleven questions in a daze. These were seriously beyond the syllabus and were truly a foul among fouls.
It covers everything from mathematics, physics, chemistry to foreign languages, and requires a very solid grasp of the basic knowledge of science and engineering.
And the first question is to recite the first section of the Manifesto. Who has time to memorize this? Although this is a famous article, it is not worth memorizing.
Before the candidates could react, Guo Shoujue continued, "Each of the first 10 questions is worth 1 point. Those who can answer 8 points will be given an excellent freshman bonus and an honorary certificate after admission. They will be directly awarded the treatment of intermediate engineers when they start working at Liaoyuan Arsenal.
If you can get 6 points, you can be directly admitted to Liaoyuan University of Technology, and after joining Liaoyuan Arsenal, you will be awarded the treatment of a junior engineer.
4 points is the passing score. ”
"The last question is an additional question. If you can answer it correctly, you will be awarded 10 points. After admission, you will be given a 100 silver dollar allowance. After joining the Liaoyuan Arsenal, you will be treated as a senior engineer."
While talking about these admission and employment benefits, Guo Shoujue felt a little dazed. Half a year ago, he was also fooled by his teacher into coming to Liaoyuan Arsenal.
At that time, I was still very naive and thought that the teacher would let me go if I answered the questions well. Later on, I thought that no matter how I answered, I would not have been let go.
Of course, in this situation, I won’t leave even if someone drives me away.
The situation is the same today. No matter how these students perform in the exams, they probably will not be sent back to their original units.
Seeing the shocked looks on the students' eyes, Guo Shoujue felt secretly happy.
All the candidates were shocked by these eleven questions. They were all inspired to go to the Northwest from various places, and they were even more impressed by the revolutionary spirit of the Northwest that took the world as its own responsibility.
As for further academic studies, they naturally knew that there were no particularly capable people on our side, and they had even neglected their studies for some time.
Zhao Gang is actually a prominent representative in this regard.
When seeing such professional science and engineering questions on this simple blackboard, everyone was stunned.
Not only that, the breadth of these science and engineering questions exceeded these students' expectations, and the depth of the additional questions also exceeded their expectations.
This move alone shocked the whole group of students.
Many people were scratching their heads, and it was obvious that these questions were difficult for the candidates.
In the house outside the examination room, the three-member independent regiment team and the brigade commander were watching the exam through telescopes.
"Old Yu, I see this is the question you used to test Guo Shoujue and the others. Why did you use it again this time? It seems that these students find it difficult."
Li Yunlong looked at the questions, then looked at the candidates with painful faces, and asked in confusion.
"You read it right. These are basically the same questions as last time, except for the first question. Don't worry, let's see how these students answer the questions first."
"Hey, Yu Ye, your questions are pretty good. Especially the first question, which is very clever. This question is both red and professional."
The brigade commander was leaning on a crutch, looking at the situation in the examination room through a telescope, then turned his head and gave Yu Ye an approving look.
"This is all thanks to Lao Zhao, who does political work for them every day. Otherwise, our first batch of students would not have this awareness."
"I dare not take credit for this. It was all your idea. Many of the students in this batch have already been absorbed into the organization, and the rest are in the preparation process.
Old Yu, why don't you feel sorry for these young guys if they get frozen in this cold wind?"
Zhao Gang is still concerned about the physical condition of these students.
"We are just getting started. We will face many tough situations in the future, so this bit of cold wind is nothing. Besides, I am also trying to temper their tempers. Aren't these little guys a bit arrogant? I will temper them first and let them settle down before entrusting them with important tasks."
Before actually recruiting people, Yu Ye had already started planning how to train these students.
