Chapter 352: 352 Congratulations on Getting One Question
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
In the end, it was indeed the Wang siblings who were wrong. Even with the extra five minutes, they still scored zero.
Tan Rou answered all five questions correctly, while the Wang siblings only answered three. Tan Rou scored 20 points for each question, and the siblings barely passed.
Their expressions turned ugly and they began to panic. The two of them sat restlessly in their seats and asked to go to the toilet halfway.
Tan Rou agreed. She had already won the first round anyway. No matter what tricks they played next, she would have the advantage.
“What’s wrong with you guys?” Principal Hu paced back and forth anxiously. “We’re going to lose if this goes on.”
Although Wang Shu was also worried that he would lose, he would never admit that he was afraid. “Principal, don’t worry. There are still two morcrounds. The questions for the next round are simple. We will definitely remember the numbers correctly.”
Wang Xin also said, “My brother and I will each memorize half of the data and answer the questions together. There will definitely be no mistakes.”
Principal Hu could only place his trust in them now.
The second round of the match required them to snatch an opportunity to answer. There were ten questions in total, and each correct answer was worth twenty points. The points could be added to the previous question.
These questions were much easier than the first round with simpler calculations. Moreover, there was no need for extra time to wait for the other party to finish answering the question. It was fine as long as one answered correctly. The first five questions were fill-in-the-blanks and the remaining five questions were multiple-choice. If one managed to grab a question, they would have three seconds to answer it. If they answered it correctly, they would get 20 points. If they answered it wrongly, they would not get any points deducted.
After the host finished reading the question, he gave the students 30 seconds to react. “Three, two, one! Start answering.”
Tan Rou reacted very quickly. She pressed the button and said, “The answer is D.”
The host smiled. “Congratulations, Student Tan Rou. You got the correct answer.”
On the other side, Wang Shu and his sister’s faces darkened. They still hadn’t figured out the answer.
The host then read another fill-in-the-blank question. “Please answer the second question first!”
Tan Rou snatched it again. “The strength is 7.2N.”
The emcee nodded. “Congratulations to Tan Rou for giving yet another correct answer.”
The Wang siblings did not manage to get the next three questions. Seeing that the gap in their scores was getting bigger and bigger, the Wang siblings thought of a way.
“Sister, the next question should be a multiple-choice question. If it’s a multiple-choice question, we’ll snatch it first and then think of a way to stall for time.” Wang Shu whispered to Wang Xin.
Wang Xin also agreed with this method. “You snatch it, I’ll answer.”
“Alright.” Wang Shu pressed the button.
Tan Rou saw them muttering to each other but she didn’t hear what they said. When she saw their hands on the answer button, she could roughly understand what they had in mind.
Before reading the questions, the host reminded the Wang siblings, “Students, Student has already gotten five questions correctly. If you don’t get any of the next five questions, your chances of turning the tables will be slim.”
“Got it. Hurry up and ask,” the Wang siblings said impatiently.
The host frowned, thinking that this pair of twins did not know how to appreciate the kindness that was being shown to them. He could only blame himself for being too talkative. Why did he have to talk to them? It was enough for him to do his job as a host.
For the sixth question, Tan Rou didn’t get the button. Rather than saying that she didn’t get the chance to answer it, it was more accurate to say that she didn’t participate in it at all. When the emcee finished counting, Tan Rou’s hand was still on the table. She had no intention of answering first. After a while, she did not move. Those who did not know better would think that she had fallen asleep.
The host saw that the Wang siblings had snatched the question and congratulated them in a friendly manner. “Congratulations to Wang Shu and Wang Xin for snatching the question. You have three seconds to answer it.” When the countdown ended, Wang Shu still hadn’t figured out the answer, so they could only choose one at random.
After Tan Rou heard the answer, she burst out laughing. “Even if you chose randomly, you shouldn’t have chosen such a ridiculous answer. They asked about the falling speed, but you chose the speed of the object being thrown upwards. Don’t you think that it’s weird?”
Wang Shu’s palms were sweating. She really couldn’t solve this question.
Tan Rou raised her hand and asked, “Sir, they’ve got the wrong answer. It’s my turn to answer, right?”
Each side only had one chance. If they managed to answer the question first, the points would be given to the person who answered correctly first. If they failed, the other side would answer. If the answer was correct, the points would be given to the other side.
“Alright, Tan Rou, please answer.” the host said.
“The answer is C, falling 3.76 meters per second, with two decimals.” Tan Rou picked the answer without breaking any sweat..
