Yesterday, Qu Feng, a gold medal winner of the 42nd Olympic Mathematics just returned from the United States and a senior three student of Northeast Yucai School, and his tutor Su Jianyi told reporters with great excitement: "The China team composed of six middle school students won the first place in the total score of the team for the 42nd International Mathematical Olympiad 10. There are achievements and sweat of our Liaoning people. " Recalling the scene of awarding prizes at the Kennedy Art Center in Washington, DC, teachers and students will always remember the following scene: When the host announced the winners, the audience immediately cheered "China, China" and many foreigners gave thumbs up to China people. Qu Feng said that he met Mr. Su after attending junior high school. There is a standard for teacher Su to choose training objects, that is, she must be obsessed with mathematics. In order to work out a math problem, Qu Feng persisted for three days. On July 1 this year, they just set foot on the land of the United States, when they met their counterparts in the mathematics field, they asked China players for the secret of success. Teacher Su only answered one sentence: "While others are enjoying their lives, our children are roaming in the kingdom of mathematics. This year's New Year's Eve, at 3 pm, my students didn't go home for the Spring Festival, and on the third day of the New Year's Eve, they returned to the intense preparation for the exam. This is the secret of our success. " Mathematical Olympics takes two days, four and a half hours a day, and three questions at a time. Qu Feng said that when he first walked into the examination room, he didn't feel nervous because he had been taking the exam in China for a long time. When he did the third question, he was particularly uncomfortable because he was not used to the environment. He considered the problem for two and a half hours and finally gave up. Qu Feng said that when he was preparing for the exam, he was most moved by two students, He Jifeng and Zhang Kaiyuan. Both of them lost the national team selection on April 2. From then on, they put forward the goal of three people * * * to protect a gold medal, and the two became his assistants for preparing for the exam, busy for him day and night. -PS: This is a personal story about Qu Feng, a talented student in Northeast China. ~ ~ He walked to Peking University and is now in graduate school ...
