Essay on college entrance examination
The annual national college entrance examination is over. The weather here was beautiful in those days. It rained heavily for several days and the weather was cool. The children were really lucky. Recall that when we took the college entrance examination 30 years ago (from July 7 to July 9), it was dog days and the weather was sultry. There is no air conditioner or electric fan in the examination room. The exam is already tense, and the examination room is stuffy and hot. My face was covered with sweat and my arm was wet with sweat, so I had to put a towel under my arm. The leaders are afraid of the students' summer heat, and there are doctors patrolling outside the examination room. The conditions of children now are very different from those of us at that time, with air conditioning and electric fans. Some students with good conditions still have rooms to rest in the hotel at noon. On the night after the exam, I went out to eat and drink to celebrate. Enter bars, discos, cafes, dance halls and have fun all night. Some even travel together. At that time, our first wish after the exam was to watch a movie, and then borrow all the novels that we usually want to read and have no time to read, and read them in the dark. I still clearly remember that the first movie I saw the next day after the exam was the Indian black-and-white movie "Wanderer", and I still remember the actors, songs and stories clearly. Homecoming, chasing, love between life and death, caravans, bridges … were all my favorites at that time. The novels A Dream of Red Mansions, Home, Spring, Autumn, Les Miserables, War and Peace, Jane Eyre, decameron, Red and Black ... brought me to a dreamy world. It was a great time of youth, full of ideals, pursuits and struggles. There are endless dreams, endless words, endless songs ... really lingering.
