Recently, a global mathematics competition finalist list
has attracted widespread attention
One of the girls ranked 12th with a high score of 93 points
Her name is Jiang Ping
Among the finalists of this global mathematics competition
There are 801 contestants
from all over the world. Among them, Jiang Ping, ranked 12th, is the first technical secondary school student to reach the finals since the competition was held.
is also the only girl in the top 30.
ranked in front of her. The contestants
are all from world-renowned universities such as Peking University and Tsinghua University
Cambridge University.
Jiang Ping is from Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province.
is a student of Jiangsu Lianshui Secondary Vocational School
majoring in fashion design
Jiang Ping's mathematics since junior high school.
The results are particularly outstanding
Leading the other subjects by a cliff
The last big question
When others can only write "Solution:"
She can find the idea at a glance
When doing math homework
She is also more willing to do difficult questions
"It will bring me the desire to explore."
Jiang Ping said that mathematics is like her own friend
"When the problem is solved, I feel very happy.
When I can't solve it, it will be very painful."
At that time, parents and teachers were all Tell Jiang Ping "Don't be partial to subjects"
"The college entrance examination is not just about mathematics"
Later, due to various factors
Jiang Ping, who was originally admitted to an ordinary high school, came to a junior college to study fashion design
She only had to study "language and mathematics" every day. And clothing professional courses
She had enough spare time to get along with mathematics.
Soon, the middle school textbooks were far from enough for Jiang Ping. When she started to learn advanced mathematics
, she would also find it difficult.
For example, if she wanted to draw a picture, she would try to draw it on a piece of paper.
Then she would keep changing her ideas to solve the problem. When in difficulty
she often consulted mathematics teacher Wang Runqiu
Under Wang Runqiu's guidance
Jiang Ping began to learn the foreign language version of "Partial Differential Equations" from "Advanced Mathematics" and "Mathematical Analysis"
with the help of mobile phone translation software and "English-Chinese Small Dictionary"
She has taught one-third of herself
Now, she has reached the third or fourth grade level of undergraduate mathematics major
Participating in the global mathematics competition this time was a surprise for Jiang Ping
Wang Runqiu told her that there was no threshold for the competition
and encouraged her to try A try
At the beginning, Jiang Ping had no confidence.
She silently went over last year's competition questions.
She signed up for the preliminaries with the mentality of giving it a try. During the two days of the preliminaries, she spent the rest of the time answering questions except eating and sleeping.
She only wanted to prove that she could do it.
In the end, she was successfully shortlisted for the finals.
Jiang Ping said that she didn’t think so much at first.
Being seen by others"
In Jiang Ping's eyes, mathematics is everywhere
Fashion drawing and drawing to learn clothing
The production and cutting of clothes
In her opinion, it is all related to mathematics
For example, she likes and is good at partial differential calculus Equations (pde)
are similar to the drawings of clothing design
"Their symmetry is so beautiful"
Design inspiration that suddenly appears when drawing clothing
Sometimes it comes from mathematics
Although the performance in the field of mathematics is very good
But Jiang Ping is more interested in the clothing major.
She hopes to enter a university in Zhejiang to study clothing design in the future
No matter which path she chooses in the future,
both of them will continue to occupy an important position in her life.
She said
"If studying fashion design is my plan a
, then exploring the world of mathematics is my plan b
I hope my plan b can also be seen"
Now
Jiang Ping is concentrating on preparing for the finals on June 22
Seize this rare opportunity Opportunity
to compete with masters from all over the world
I hope she can achieve good results again
Thumbs up for 17-year-old Jiang Ping!
has a promising future!
