1351: I Must Get an A! (4 More)

Da da da.

The soles of Professor McCarthy's shoes are in close contact with the ground, getting closer and closer...

This time, Xia Xiaolan didn't sit alone. She and Richard were in a group, and they were organized. Although the team members didn't trust Xia Xiaolan's ability, they didn't bully her in isolation.

"Have you finished reading The Elements of Structure?"

At the last moment when the footsteps of the Great Demon King reached the door, Xia Xiaolan received Daisy's care.

Xia Xiaolan patted the thick notebook, "I really work hard to read, believe me, the hardest time in my life...Professor McCarthy's class, I must get an A!"

Xia Xiaolan's bold words made the pimples on Daisy's face shrink.

"If this is the Southern California Film Institute, I'm sure you can take whatever you want..."

But here is the Cornell Architecture major!

It was an architectural engineering course controlled by the great devil taught by McCarthy!

It's a pity that Xia's beautiful face, Daisy has never seen such delicate and three-dimensional facial features among Asian girls. If only the face is exquisite, many Asian girls are really like dolls, but their bodies are too young, Xia It's different, Xia has a delicate and beautiful face and a hot body... This poor Chinese girl, she came to the wrong place, why did she fall into the clutches of Professor McCarthy.

Daisy suspects that, in the eyes of Professor McCarthy, there is no gender distinction, let alone beauty and ugliness!

A pair of feet entered the classroom, and Daisy quickly retracted her neck.

Here comes Professor McCarthy!

The Great Demon King came back to the world, and the devastated students shivered.

Xia Xiaolan heard Richard encourage herself in a very small voice:

"Pass! Pass! I'll pass this time!"

Xia Xiaolan couldn't help but take a look at the "homework" that Richard and the three had fiddled with. To be honest, she felt that it was not much different from the model that was dropped last time. Xia Xiaolan's suggestion was not accepted, and she was responsible for the homework this time. It's over.

can pass?

The big devil's eyes swept across the classroom. He usually doesn't name names. It is said that no one dares to skip McCarthy's class. Although McCarthy may not be able to remember names, he obviously has his own set of identification methods.

"Check the homework first! Chuck, can you bring your group's model to the stage?"

Richard, whose name was forcibly changed, and Lyle, another boy in the group, carried the model to the stage, and Xia Xiaolan and Daisy also went up.

McCarthy asked them to introduce the assignments themselves.

"Do you think this structure is stable enough?"

Richard's eyes floated: "Yes."

"Shear Wall..."

"Building Plane Stiffness."

"Seismic calculation?"

McCarthy threw question after question, and Richard sweated all over his head.

Fat Lyle's flesh was shaking.

Daisy's face turned red, as if her pimples were about to explode.

Answering the question bravely, McCarthy snorted: "I don't want to see unqualified homework again. If your group fails next time, you won't even get a C this semester!"

what? !

Xia Xiaolan, who didn't say anything and whose opinions were not accepted, was simply lying.

In the first semester of her exchange at Cornell University, she couldn't even get a C in the required courses. Huaqing Architecture Department and Mao Kangshan probably wanted to drag her back and beat her, which was too embarrassing.

But McCarthy didn't give Xia Xiaolan a chance to choose at all, so she put her in this study group that had messed up twice, what can Xia Xiaolan say?

The third chance...is the last chance.

Richard also knew that the trio had screwed up and that the group performed badly, angering the big devil.

The Great Demon King took turns to check the homework. The group that failed last time passed most of them this time, and only the other group was treated the same as Xia Xiaolan's group.

Ning Xue looked over with sympathy in her eyes.

This high-pressure environment is completely different from that in China.

In China, it is difficult to get a university entrance exam. As long as you get in, it's easy. As long as you don't get fired and don't violate any major discipline, you'll always get a job when you graduate.

It is nothing more than the difference in the benefits of the units they go to, and most of the starting salaries at graduation are similar.

After graduating from Huaqing, you will not go to a bad unit.

However, in the United States, it is very difficult to apply for a university without collecting tuition fees. The difficulty is to graduate, and the difficulty is to graduate with all A grades. It is also a graduate of Cornell Architecture, whether it is excellent or not will be reflected in the starting salary when you first work!

Ning Xue was thinking, can Xia Xiaolan adapt?

At Huaqing University, Xia Xiaolan seems to have spare energy. She is usually in school and goes out of town to run her business on weekends.

When she arrived at Cornell University, Xia Xiaolan could only study hard and honestly, unless Xia Xiaolan wanted to become a member of the "Mediocre".

"No, Xia Xiaolan is not the kind of person who is willing to be mediocre."

As soon as this thought came to Ning Xue's mind, Professor McCarthy asked Xia Xiaolan to answer the question again.

Xia Xiaolan patted her notebook.

Whoever wants to see the newcomer's jokes this time is destined to be disappointed, and she has a week to read "Structural Elements" intensively. Ning Xue was right, Xia Xiaolan had been forced by Professor McCarthy to temporarily give up the idea of ​​making money in the United States, and there was $1.27 million in her account. According to Xia Xiaolan's character, she wanted to use money to make money. million to 2 million

, 3 million... But she didn't have time, she read the book for a whole week!

This at least gave Xia Xiaolan more confidence when answering Professor McCarthy's question.

Although she didn't know whether her answer was completely correct, Xia Xiaolan's words were not ambiguous.

When still stumped by Professor McCarthy, Xia Xiaolan thought for a while, but it wasn't that she couldn't answer at all, it wasn't completely correct, at least it was close to the correct answer.

Xia Xiaolan has progressed so fast!

Sure enough, you are talented, and you didn't focus on your studies before, right?

Ning Xue secretly sighed.

The members of Xia Xiaolan's group were surprised.

Is this still the newcomer Xia who was forced to sew into the ground by the big devil's question last week?

When the get out of class was over, as soon as Professor McCarthy left, Daisy joined up:

"How did you do it?"

Xia Xiaolan rubbed her eyes: "Sleep no more than 5 hours a day for a week, and that's all I can do. I think I might die suddenly before I get an A!"

Or, will she become myopic?

After all, the eye volume is too large.

The fat Lyle pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "You must have a special learning method, you ask other students, everyone's sleep is compressed to 4-5 hours, but most of them do not learn from you. so fast!"

"...So why don't you trust me? I may not be a weak chicken, I just didn't adapt to Professor McCarthy's rhythm before!"

Xia Xiaolan was also anxious.

If she doesn't participate again, will she watch the entire study group get killed by Professor McCarthy?

Daisy pushed Richard's arm:

"Or, do we believe in Xia Yiyi?"

Richard ruffled his hair. "But she hasn't even touched—"

Xia Xiaolan's expression was calm, "I haven't watched "Structural Elements" before."
