Chapter 309 Final Exam
Chapter 309 Final Exam
Time flies and it is the end of June.
Sunday is the day for the final exam.
After more than half a month of review, Li Kailang was full of confidence in this test.
Even though Yan Wanbin had strict requirements for his assessment, Li Kailang was confident that he could pass.
Unlike other students who only had theoretical exams, Li Kailang also had a maintenance assessment.
In the theoretical exam out of 90, Li Kailang had to get at least points, and the same was true for the practical exam.
The exams at night school are basically fill-in-the-blank and short-answer questions, with no multiple-choice questions. What is tested is the solidity of basic skills, and there is no element of luck.
Today, all students from the Department of Mechanical Manufacturing will come to take the exam, and it is rare that no one is missing.
"Start answering the questions." After handing out the test papers, Yan Wanbin sat on the podium and watched everyone answer the questions.
"The theoretical exam is so simple. I will definitely pass it this time." Li Kailang looked at the exam questions with confidence.
Unlike Li Kailang who was full of confidence, the other students were scratching their heads and feeling very distressed as they looked at the questions.
This exam took some time, leaving them with insufficient time to review.
They played with their hair while thinking about how to answer the questions.
"Oh my god, I saw this yesterday, why can't I remember it?" When someone saw a familiar question, he couldn't help but hit his head, trying to remember.
"Why is this exam so difficult? I have never seen this question before."
Each situation emerged one after another, making everyone rack their brains to think.
"Wow——" Suddenly, the sound of flipping test papers was heard.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Li Kailang flipping through the test paper. His face was full of confidence and he wrote as if he was inspired by God.
When Li Kailang flipped the test paper, everyone was shocked.
"You answered so quickly, is it because half of the time has passed?" Everyone immediately looked up at the clock.
"I was scared to death. It's only been more than half an hour and I thought the time was halfway through." Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At such a tense moment, Li Kailang's behavior was tantamount to scaring them, and they couldn't help but complain about Li Kailang.
"The questions are answered so quickly, is this test really that easy?" Everyone couldn't help but doubt in their hearts and were very distressed.
Suddenly someone said, "I almost forgot, Li Kailang had a separate test paper, and the content of his test was different from ours. His test paper was easier."
Hearing this, everyone instantly understood, "We were almost cheated by this kid. He tested the knowledge of the last two months, which is very simple."
"Clap!"
On the podium, Yan Wanbin sternly rebuked: "Take the test well and don't whisper!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately lowered their heads to take the test, without being affected by Li Kailang at all.
Yan Wanbin watched Li Kailang flipping through the papers and thought to himself, "Could this exam be so easy? Let's go and take a look."
Thinking of this, Yan Wanbin walked towards Li Kailang.
No one in the class knew that Li Kailang took the same exam paper as them, and even had two more papers.
Yan Wanbin didn't tell them either, for fear that Li Kailang would fail and that would undermine his self-confidence.
Yan Wanbin came to Li Kailang's desk and watched Li Kailang answer the questions at a godlike speed.
[The concept of specific output, the three elements of force, and the effect of force on objects]
[A shaft that supports rotating parts and transmits power (rotating shaft)]
[List the shear force and bending moment equations, and draw shear force diagrams and bending moment diagrams. ]
Yan Wanbin looked at Li Kailang and saw him looking at the question, thinking about it, and then immediately writing down the process and answer.
This surprised Yan Wanbin greatly. Other students had to rack their brains to come up with the answer, and they even had to list the process and make their own judgment.
Li Kailang was able to type it out in just a short while.
"Could it be possible that this kid has really read the entire book and memorized everything?" Yan Wanbin thought to himself.
What Yan Wanbin didn't know was that Li Kailang was deliberately taking his time to answer the questions. He could answer the questions after reading them.
Just to appear less shocked, I pretended to think before answering the question.
Although it was Li Kailang’s first time taking the exam, the questions on the test paper all had prototypes in the textbook.
Li Kailang's operation was actually like taking an exam for the second time. The questions were similar to the first time, and the ideas for answering were the same.
Yan Wanbin looked to the other side, at the top student in the class.
Although Jin Jianxian is not like Li Kailang, who seems to be possessed by the test god, he is always steady when answering questions.
Comparing the two, Yan Wanbin couldn't help but marvel at Li Kailang's ability to answer questions.
Li Kailang can answer questions at such a fast speed thanks to the planting space, which gives him several times more time to read.
Most of the students only reviewed once or twice, but he had reviewed it three or four times, and his memory of knowledge was deep and extensive.
Of course, the most important thing is to reach the entry level of mechanical technology and instill a lot of knowledge.
So much so that the test questions were all easy for him.
"Not bad, not bad." Yan Wanbin nodded and watched Li Kailang answer the questions.
"Wow——" Li Kailang flipped over the test paper again, and everyone turned to look at him in an instant.
Li Kailang took out another test paper. Everyone took a look at it, then immediately lost interest and turned back to answer the questions.
Everyone had two test papers, except Li Kailang, who had four.
This is the price Li Kailang has to pay for wanting to join the second grade with everyone else. He not only has to take exams for this semester, but also for the content of the previous semester.
Li Kailang had to answer the questions in a hurry. He didn't do it on purpose, but he had no choice.
The exam time passed by in a flash.
Li Kailang handed in his paper on time with everyone else, but Yan Wanbin took out his test paper separately.
Yan Wanbin: "Everyone can go home after the exam. The scores will be announced next Friday. Everyone can have a good rest during this time."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"The exam is over. I can finally go home and rest."
"Yes, I've been reviewing for more than half a month, studying late into the night, and I'm exhausted. I can finally take a break."
After this exam, it will be the two-month summer vacation, and everyone can have a good rest.
"Kailang, do you want to go together?" Yu Xingmei looked at Li Kailang.
After more than a month of getting along, the relationship between the three has improved a lot and is no longer as unfamiliar as it was at the beginning.
Most importantly, Jin Jianxian and Yu Xingmei both saw Li Kailang's talent for studying.
During this period, Li Kailang sometimes helped Yu Xingmei to make up for the knowledge she lacked due to not attending classes.
The two of them couldn't help but be surprised at Li Kailang's knowledge. They used to think he was a burden, but unexpectedly he was actually a big shot.
"Li Kailang can't leave yet. He still has a practical test to take." Yan Wanbin said to Yu Xingmei.
"Is that so? That's a pity. Come on, Kailang!" Yu Xingmei raised her arm to cheer Li Kailang on.
"Thank you. Don't worry, I can pass the exam." Li Kailang responded with a smile.
"Come on." Jin Jianxian patted Li Kailang on the shoulder.
Both of them believed that Li Kailang could survive and had no worries at all.
Yu Xingmei: "Cheerful, we'll leave first then."
Li Kailang nodded: "You go first."
After the two left, Li Kailang looked at Yan Wanbin and said, "Teacher, when will the practical test be held?"
Yan Wanbin smiled and said, "Why? Are you in such a hurry to take the exam? You just finished the exam, why don't you take a rest first?"
Li Kailang shook his head. He was anxious to finish the assessment so that he could go home and rest early.
"No, teacher, I am now very energetic, so let's hurry up and do the practical test."
"Okay, since you're so anxious, come with me."
Yan Wanbin took Li Kailang into the Second Machine Repair Factory and came to the workshop.
"Wait here for a moment. I'll bring you the test questions."
After a while, Yan Wanbin came over with a worn-out bench vise.
"Repairing this vise will be your practical test. Your practical score will be determined based on how well you repair this vise."
A bench vise is a type of desktop clamp that is usually installed on a workbench and is used to clamp the workpiece. It is an essential tool for fitters.
The structure of a general bench vise is composed of a clamp body, a base, a nut, a lead screw, and a jaw iron. The overall structure is not complicated. There are also differences between bench vises and bench vises. The biggest difference is the accuracy.
Li Kailang observed carefully and found that the one given by Yan Wanbin was 3 inches, and there was also a more precise 8-inch one. It was obvious that this one was for junior workers.
"Now start the repair. Just take whatever materials you need from the box. You can use any tools on the table."
After saying that, Yan Wanbin stepped aside and marked Li Kailang's test paper.
Li Kailang nodded and started to repair it. With the maintenance (expert) there, his maintenance ability was not bad.
The first step was for Li Kailang to disassemble the bench vise.
After disassembling it, we found that the joystick had signs of breakage and needed to be remade.
The jaws are the most important part of a bench vise, and some of them are damaged and need to be remanufactured.
"It seems that it not only tests maintenance ability, but also manufacturing ability. It is indeed not that simple." Li Kailang muttered to himself and pulled out the two accessories separately.
Fortunately, Li Kailang's manufacturing ability is not bad, and these two things are not difficult to make, so he took out the materials from the box on the side.
"It's good that you can find the damage of the jaws." Yan Wanbin secretly admired.
These are the two problems he left intentionally. The joystick is the problem that can be found on the surface, and the iron jaws are the hidden problems.
If Li Kailang hadn't discovered the problem with the iron jaws, the assessment wouldn't have needed to continue.
“Finding it is one thing, but whether we can produce accessories that meet the requirements remains to be seen.”
Thinking of this, Yan Wanbin retracted his gaze and continued to mark Li Kailang's test paper.
Although it is a bench vise used by entry-level workers, it is not so easy to repair.
Li Kailang is an expert in maintenance, so he is naturally good at manufacturing workpieces, and is even as good as senior workers in some aspects.
It’s just that he is not as comprehensive as a senior fitter who can manufacture all kinds of workpieces.
In the second step, Li Kailang cleaned all the accessories and then stripped the paint.
The third step is to grind and polish all parts.
After completing these steps, Li Kailang began to make the joystick and jaws.
The joystick was not difficult to make, and a suitable joystick was made quickly.
The most difficult iron jaws, but this is not a problem for Li Kailang.
After a series of operations such as manufacturing, polishing, and leveling, Li Kailang made the jaw iron.
The fourth step is to give the entire bench vise rust-proof treatment, polish, and then carefully grind it, and finally paint it.
Finally, you just need to wait for the paint to solidify before assembling it, but this takes a lot of time.
At this time, Yan Wanbin, who had been paying attention to Li Kailang, came over and said, "It seems that you have finished it."
"Teacher, not yet. It still needs to be assembled." Li Kailang said.
"No need to assemble it. In my opinion, you have already completed the practical test."
Yan Wanbin picked up the iron jaws, looked at them carefully, and then looked at the other accessories. Anyone who was not a fool could assemble them.
Hearing this, Li Kailang was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Teacher, how many points can I get in this test?"
Yan Wanbin looked at these parts, then looked at Li Kailang's expectant eyes and smiled slightly.
"you guess?"
"I can't guess it. Teacher, please tell me." Li Kailang said speechlessly. He didn't want a lot of points, just 90 points would be enough.
Only with this score can he be promoted to the second grade.
It was a rare occasion for Yan Wanbin to make a joke, but he didn't expect Li Kailang to not be fooled.
"Okay, I've seen it, you've got full marks on the practical test!"
"Really? Is it really full marks?" Li Kailang said in disbelief. He felt that he had not done well enough.
"What? If you think the score is too high, you can lower it. 89 points will be fine." Yan Wanbin joked.
"No, no, a perfect score is good."
Seeing Li Kailang's embarrassed look, Yan Wanbin found it funny and then took out the test paper.
"Do you want to know the results of your theory test?"
Li Kailang looked at the marks on the test paper and nodded repeatedly. It was impossible for him not to know.
After all, he only needs 90 points in the theoretical exam to successfully advance to the second grade.
"Do you want to guess the score again?"
"Full marks?" Li Kailang made a bold guess.
Yan Wanbin smiled slightly: "You are wishful thinking. Don't think that if you get full marks in the practical test, you will get full marks in the theoretical test. Don't daydream during the day."
"One is 96, the other is 92. Congratulations, you got 90 points on both papers. You can enter the second grade next semester."
Hearing this answer, Li Kailang was stunned for a moment, then jumped up and waved his arms violently.
"Nice!" Li Kailang couldn't help but blurt out a sentence in English.
"Nice?" Hearing this English word, Yan Wanbin looked at Li Kailang who was cheering.
The mainstream foreign language learned nowadays is Russian, not English, and not many young people can speak English.
As an engineer at the Second Machine Tool Factory, Yan Wanbin had some understanding of the wind direction.
There is now a trend away from Russian and toward English, and the implications are extraordinary.
"Li Kailang, can you speak English?" Yan Wanbin asked.
Li Kailang didn't understand what Yan Wanbin meant, so he said modestly, "I know a little, but not much."
Like most people, he learned English just to cope with exams. Because he did too much reading comprehension, his ability was limited to just reading letters literally.
"How much do you know? Can we communicate?" Yan Wanbin asked anxiously.
Li Kailang shook his head: "No, at most I can just take a look at the meaning, but it's far from enough to communicate."
Although I have practiced speaking, it was only for the purpose of passing exams.
"Is that so? Okay, I understand."
Hearing this result, Yan Wanbin was a little disappointed, but he was mentally prepared.
After all, the mainstream learning of Russian does not have many people who can speak English, so it is good enough to meet someone who can speak a little English.
Li Kailang didn't understand what Yan Wanbin meant, but he asked more questions.
"Okay, you have passed both the theoretical and practical tests. Go back and have a good rest." Yan Wanbin said.
"Yes, teacher, I'll leave first." Li Kailang was about to turn around and leave.
Yan Wanbin suddenly shouted: "Wait."
Li Kailang turned around immediately and asked, "Teacher, is there anything else?"
Yan Wanbin pointed at the workbench and said, "Take all these parts away."
Li Kailang waved his hands quickly: "Teacher, this is not good. After all, it belongs to the machine tool factory. If I take it, I will just be taking away the means of production."
Yan Wanbin waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's just a bench vise, it's not that serious, just give it to me as a gift, I can still make the decision."
"Besides, this thing was broken originally, and you fixed it. Consider it a reward for you. The machine tool factory doesn't lack this bench vise. Do you want it?"
"Yes, yes, yes, of course!" Li Kailang responded immediately, not wanting to waste it.
"Okay, take your things and go back to rest. Don't disturb me from grading the papers." Yan Wanbin waved his hand impatiently.
Li Kailang quickly collected the parts and left. When he was about to leave the workshop, Yan Wanbin suddenly called him.
"By the way, Li Kailang, study English well when you have free time."
Li Kailang didn't understand what it meant, but he nodded: "Okay, teacher."
After saying that, Yan Wanbin waved at him, took the test paper to the workshop office to correct it.
Li Kailang left the workshop with a pile of parts. Fortunately, the paint was applied on and would not drip down or get stained.
"But learning English is such a hassle. I don't know if there will be any rewards after improving my English."
Li Kailang's biggest headache is learning English. This foreign language is very troublesome for him.
Mainly, English is included in [Elementary Subject Knowledge (Senior High School)]. I don’t know if it will be effective to improve English alone.
"Since the teacher said so, why don't you try to learn it first?"
Li Kailang touched his head in pain.
