SECTION 1 【背景交代】 Background Of My Story
Part 1 【初三之前】 Before Junior 3
我来自【南京外国语学校(南外)】,这里的初中每级共12个班约700人,其中有450名优秀的统招生(包括我)及250名交钱进的较差生。高中部对本校生统招340人,每次大考中第340名的分数被我们称为【“线”】。
南外各班学霸云集,我们9班尤其如此,60人中一般有50人能“上线”,七八人(最多的一次11人)稳居年级前50。
和大多数同学一样,我的初一初二几乎在玩乐中度过,由于学习的时候还是很认真的,所以我的成绩一直也还不错。初二下的期末考试,我除了语文政治,各科都取得了较大的进步,于是那个暑假我便松懈了下来,除了写完老师布置的作业以及上了一个课外语文班以外,几乎什么也没学。那时的我对初三一点紧迫感也没有。。
I come from NANJING FOREIGN LANGUAGE SCHOOL(NFLS), the junior school has 12 classes, about 700 students in total in each grade. Among the students, 450 are normal students that are excellent learners, and others are students with low grades who paid money to come here. The senior school admits(招收) 340 normal students from our junior school each year, so the score of the student ranked 340th in big tests are called *THE LINE*.
Classes in NFLS are rich in Xuebas, especially in our class — Class 9. Usually, 50 of the 60 students can *go above the line*, and 7 or 8 students can even hold a steady position among the top 50 in the grade.
Like other students, my time in Junior 1 and Junior 2 was almost spent playing, but I worked solidly(踏实地) when studying, so my grade was not bad. In the second end-term exam in Junior 2, I made progress in all sbujects except Chinese and Politics, so I spent the following summer vacation playing again. I just finished the homework and had extra Chinese lessons, and I didn*t spend time studying at all except that! Yeah, I had no sense of urgency(紧急) to the coming Junior 3 at all at that time...
