The children tried their best to prepare for the exam. Parents are busy with fortune telling, which is not conducive to candidates' concentration.

With the approach of the college entrance examination (Q bar), the author found that Mr. Fengyang's business was suddenly much better than usual, and even the incense in a local temple was more vigorous. It turns out that many parents of candidates invariably find "Banxian" to apply for visas, go to temples to burn incense and worship Buddha, and pray for the gods to bless their children and get into good schools. Relevant people pointed out that it is very important to adjust the mentality before the college entrance examination, but parents still burn incense and worship Buddha for their achievements from the teacher Zhu Gua. The good or bad grades may distract the examinee's attention, make the examinee's mood uncertain, and may also bring inertia and dependence, which is not conducive to the examinee to concentrate on preparing for the exam.

On the morning of May 30th, I saw four or five fortune tellers sitting in a row on the south side of the gate of Fengyang County Hospital. There is a piece of paper under their feet, which says, "Ma Yi reads palms, easy to learn palms, and palms at birth" and so on. A white-bearded fortune teller is shaking hands with a middle-aged woman and saying something. In less than 20 minutes, four or five women have asked fortune tellers to tell their fortune. They listened and remembered devoutly. Some faces are smiling, others are depressed. The author learned from the conversation with them that their children took the college entrance examination in June. A woman surnamed Zhang said that she didn't fully believe what Mr. Zhugua said. She came here to seek comfort because she really had no bottom.

In longxing temple, several ladies-in-waiting came to burn incense and worship Buddha, and went to Fushou Temple for a sign. A rural woman in plain clothes told the author that because the child didn't go to college last year and didn't study for a year, the child and the whole family were very anxious. As a parent, she couldn't help her in her studies, so she came to the temple to pray that her child could get a high score in the exam.

The author randomly asked several candidates who were about to take the college entrance examination, and they said, "We are all sprinting for the exam. As the college entrance examination approaches, as long as friends and relatives meet, the first sentence is almost always' How are you getting ready? Can we get to the point this year?' Psychological pressure is greater. Alas, I hope God will bless us to be admitted to a satisfactory university. Mom tells our fortune and asks for a sign, so we can only listen. "

Relevant persons pointed out that in fact, parents and candidates may not be pious and convinced of the fortune tellers and masters and the luck of the college entrance examination, but they did give them some psychological comfort, but this kind of comfort is unscientific and easy to cause psychological fluctuations of candidates, which is harmful to children. Especially in the sprint stage before the exam, it is particularly important to adjust the mentality. Parents seek results by looking for Mr. Zhu Gua or burning incense to worship Buddha. The good or bad grades may distract candidates' attention, make them feel uncertain, and may also bring inertia and dependence, which is not conducive to candidates' concentration on preparing for the exam.
