Zhang Hanyu, a Nanchong girl who turned 9 in August this year, was admitted to the first experimental class of this prestigious school last month after a separate interview with Xiao Shengchu, the principal of Chengdu Foreign Languages School. In September this year, together with her brothers and sisters who are 3-4 years older than herself, she will enter the first grade of Chengwai junior high school and become the youngest freshman admitted in Chengwai history.
This girl with an IQ of over 140 can read at the age of 2, read the Encyclopedia Britannica in the second grade, and read A Dream of Red Mansions in seven days. Under the training of a former teacher’s mother, with extraordinary talent, it took only three and a half years to complete six years of primary school.
In mid-May, Gong Zhifa, the principal of Chengwai, decided to put Zhang Hanyu into the experimental class: "She is very sunny and cheerful, and she doesn’t get stage fright after knowing that I am the principal. After testing, we think she really has something extraordinary." Huaxi City Reader Xie Jie Huaxi Dushi Bao reporter Zhang Zheng
Extraordinary talent
Read through the Encyclopedia Britannica in the second grade of primary school.
In the eyes of Zhang Junlan, a mother who used to be an English teacher, Zhang Hanyu is a different child. Mother Zhang told reporters that her daughter likes reading very much, and she can’t live without books for a day.
At first, my mother often told her stories. "Later, I was lazy, so I let her read it by herself. I didn’t expect that she could tell it to me." When she was in the second grade of primary school, her mother bought her a set of children’s encyclopedia Britannica. Unexpectedly, she read all 12 volumes in less than a week. Later, Zhang Hanyu came into contact with some poems in A Dream of Red Mansions and found them very good, so she made her mother want to read the original version. "As a result, she skipped reading and actually finished reading A Dream of Red Mansions in seven days."
After attending the interview of junior high school, Zhang Hanyu asked her mother to buy her Chinese textbooks for the first to third grades, and read them all at once.
Principal interview
Pay attention to its potential and enter the experimental class without exception.
At the end of April, Zhang Hanyu, a foreign student, took the junior high school entrance examination outside Chengwai. Previously, she also participated in the junior high school evaluation of Nanchong High School and Mianyang Nanshan Middle School, both of which were accepted.
Gong Zhifa, the principal of Chengwai, told the reporter that at first, the school had not noticed that there was a child so young. "We didn’t know until she was admitted and her mother took her to the school to explain the situation." Gong Zhifa personally interviewed the little girl.
"She is sunny, cheerful and confident. Knowing that I am the principal, she has no stage fright at all." The test was conducted in Chengwai office. Facing the headmaster’s question "What is mathematics?", Zhang Hanyu calmly replied: "Science expressed by numbers or letters." "Although the answer is not comprehensive, she can summarize it in her own language, which is very good." Gong Zhifa said, "I also tested how the area of her circle was calculated. She replied that the circle was divided into very thin and small parallelograms." Under the guidance of the headmaster, Zhang Hanyu proved the trapezoid area formula in four ways.
"Her reasoning ability is good and her thinking is quick. She can pass our junior high school test without systematically studying primary school textbooks. She is indeed an extraordinary student." Gong Zhifa said. Although Zhang Hanyu’s grades are still a little far from the experimental class, according to her development potential, the school decided to enter her into the experimental class.
The cultivation method will be treated normally and will not be encouraged.
"Although she skipped a grade, she still graduated from a normal primary school and participated in the selection test normally, but her age was too small to attract the attention of the school." The school decided to train Zhang Hanyu according to the normal level, and not to encourage him. Considering her young age, the school specially allows parents to accompany her to school, and the class teacher and teachers will pay more attention to her life after she adapts to it for 1-2 years.
"She is eight and a half years old and has reached the level of 12 years old. The school doesn’t recommend her to advanced placement. After entering junior high school, we should lay a solid foundation first, and then carry out individual training after we observe her later study, hobbies and discover her specialties. " Of course, Gong Zhifa said that if Zhang Hanyu shows her potential in mathematics, the school will also give her special training. "If she wants, she can participate in the Olympic Mathematics training of the school’s student specialty development center."
Regarding Zhang Hanyu’s future planning, Gong Zhifa said that children’s world outlook and values have not yet been formed, and they should continue to observe. Of course, if she is strong enough, she can apply for the innovative experimental class of Xi ‘an Jiaotong University or China University of Science and Technology, just like other outstanding students. Journalist visit
At 9: 00 pm on June 1, the reporter met Zhang Hanyu in a residential building in a certain district of Wenhua Road, Nanchong City. This little girl with long hair and glasses, who is about 1.3 meters tall, looks childish, but there is no lack of maturity and cleverness in her words. She is reading a book on the sofa in the living room as usual, who should have celebrated Children’s Day like other children.
Last month, the IQ test of Mensa Intelligence Network, an international authoritative website, showed that Zhang Hanyu’s IQ reached 144, making him a child prodigy.
An IQ of 144 can be called a prodigy who once "fired" the Olympic math teacher.
Jumping Grade/3 and a half years to finish primary school content
Zhang Hanyu’s mother worked as an English teacher and taught in Chongqing for 8 years. In 2005, she went to work in a foreign trade company in Guangdong. Zhang Hanyu was brought to live in Guangdong by her mother after her birth, and returned to Nanchong with her mother in 2015.
In 2012, 5-year-old Zhang Hanyu was in the first grade in Dongguan. On the way to school one day in the next semester of Grade One, she told her mother Zhang Junlan: "I knew everything the teacher taught." When Zhang Junlan went home for a test, she found that her daughter had really mastered the content of the first grade, so she applied to the school to let her daughter skip a grade.
The headmaster said it was against the law of education and didn’t agree. Zhang Junlan then asked her daughter to transfer to another school, and Han Yu, 6, jumped directly to the third grade. After advanced placement, Hanyu has been ranked in the top 10 among more than 800 students in the whole grade, and is the "learning star" of the school.
Since this advanced placement, Zhang Hanyu has been out of control. After the third grade of primary school, the fourth grade, and the fifth grade … … Before returning to Nanchong, she spent only two and a half years in Guangdong and went to the fifth grade.
In the first half of 2015, Han Yu, who was over 7 years old, returned to Nanchong with her mother and went to the five-star primary school where her cousin was located to "cut in" to borrow the fifth grade.
Now, at the age of eight and a half, she has taught herself the first textbook at home.
Learn to read early/at the age of 2, and you will never forget to read.
"She mainly has early literacy, strong reception ability and good memory, and she learns things quickly." Zhang Junlan said that when she was less than 2 years old, she taught her daughter to read with illustrations, but her daughter soon disliked pictures and had to look at the words directly. So since her daughter was 2 years old, Zhang Junlan took her to "read on the street". "I taught her once and she recognized it. I can remember it the second time I asked her."
"When I was two and a half years old, I read big-character books. When I was three years old, I began to read collections. After I was four years old, I read books in pure text." Hanyu said that she can still remember that the book she read when she was two and a half years old was Monkey Fishing for the Moon.
Love reading/pure text and review.
"When my daughter was 2 years old, a Swedish friend gave her a small cloth book. After that, she especially liked reading." Zhang Junlan said that Hanyu likes to visit bookstores since he was a child. Even when I go to the supermarket, I will say, "Mom, you go shopping, shall I read here?" Later, Hanyu fell in love with the bookstore again. Zhang Junlan was afraid that her daughter’s eyesight would be affected, and she also made a contract with her for three chapters: only good performance can reward her for going to the bookstore.
At the age of 3, Hanyu began to read composition collections and pure text books, and the reading speed was very fast. She also likes to "review" books, even novels are no exception. "She will read more deep words."
Learn math/can do double-digit multiplication at the age of 4.
At the beginning, when Hanyu showed amazing literacy and reading ability, Zhang Junlan was still vaguely worried that her daughter would not learn math well and be partial.
So she bought a digital polyhedron with one digit on each side and taught her daughter to recognize numbers. Later, I taught my daughter to do addition and subtraction by playing the game "Finding Friends". Less than 4 years old, after Hanyu Xuezhu’s mental arithmetic, the addition and subtraction within 100 can get the answer directly by mental arithmetic and oral calculation without counting fingers or making drafts. "She can do double-digit multiplication at the age of 4."
At the end of 2015, after finishing the fifth grade, Hanyu didn’t go to school again. Zhang Junlan enrolled her in an Olympic math class. "At first, the teacher didn’t accept it, thinking that she was too young, but after studying for a while, the doll said that the teacher taught it too simply and asked for a change." In March this year, 8-year-old Zhang Hanyu won the third prize in the final of the 21st National Hua Luogeng Gold Cup Junior Mathematics Invitational Tournament.
Ambitious/determined to go to Harvard at the age of four
Next semester, Zhang Hanyu will go to Chengdu Foreign Language School. When asked if she would continue to open the "advanced placement mode", both she and her mother said that they still planned to study step by step.
Last month, the IQ test of Mensa Intelligence Network showed that Zhang Hanyu’s IQ was as high as 144, and the high IQ group "mensa international" also sent her an invitation to join the club. Speaking of future goals, Hanyu said, "I have wanted to go to Harvard since I was four years old."
Dialogue with Zhang Hanyu
I don’t think I’m excellent, and I like books with storylines.
"I don’t think I’m better than other students or peers, but I learn early." Zhang Hanyu told reporters that she remembered that when she was very young, she liked to look for books on the bookshelf. She could read all kinds of books and her mother would give guidance, so she learned faster than her classmates.
Hanyu also mentioned his "best friend" of the same age — — I am eight and a half years old, and now I am in the second grade of primary school. "I don’t talk about learning with her, but I talk about other things. It’s very easy to talk."
Speaking of attending the interview of Xiaoshengchu in Chengdu Foreign Languages School, she said that she was not nervous and did not deliberately review. "But I still hope to pass, because then my mother will reward me and watch a movie."
Speaking of reading, Hanyu, who looks very quiet, immediately came to the spirit. "I like reading books with storylines, such as Dream of Red Mansions, which have a strong sense of story. I finished reading them at the age of six and a half." She said, "I like books on history and humanities very much. I really don’t have books to read, so I just look at Chinese reading comprehension articles."
In her bookcase, most books have been read several times. There are reference books such as American Primary School Chinese, Japanese Learning, New Concept English and Huang Gang’s Complete Works of Composition, as well as Chinese and foreign famous books such as A Dream of Red Mansions, The Scholars, The Biography of Napoleon, Nalan Ci, and A Talk on Eating by Elegant Houses. Dialogue mother
I don’t want my daughter to be a myth when she was a child and grow up to be a joke.
Huaxi Dushi Bao: When did you first discover that your daughter was smart?
Zhang Junlan: One day in June 2008, when she was only 10 months old, I pointed to the facial features at home and told her where is the eye (eye), the ear (ear) and the mouth (mouth). Unexpectedly, a few days later, I accidentally asked, and she could actually point it out on her face. At that time, I felt both surprised and surprised.
Huaxi Dushi Bao: After that, did you start to cultivate your daughter’s learning ability?
Zhang Junlan: Although she was still young at that time, I read the book "Carl Witt’s Education" and felt that we should pay more attention to enlightenment. In the enlightenment, I discovered my daughter’s talent even more. When she was over one year old, she could match the national flags with the national flags hanging on the wall, and she could spell out the puzzles of the world map and China map from the opposite side.
Huaxi Dushi Bao: Have you been your daughter’s full-time mother and tutor all these years?
Zhang Junlan: Before my daughter was born, I resigned and became a full-time mother. Later, when she was growing up, because I was a teacher, I naturally became my daughter’s tutor. I used to tell her, but now I can’t understand some things she sees, so she tells me.
Huaxi Dushi Bao: What are your hopes for your daughter’s future development?
Zhang Junlan: I often tell her to learn from Fang Zhongyong’s lessons. Don’t let a myth grow into a joke when she was a child. Cherish and give full play to her intelligence.
Dialogue class teacher
Expect her to bring more surprises.
After returning to Nanchong in 2015, Zhang Hanyu "cut in" and borrowed Class 6, Grade 5, Wuxing Primary School in Nanchong City. In her Quality Development Report Book, Huang Yuan, the head teacher, wrote a message: "Son, as soon as you came, the teacher was deeply attracted by your attitude of loving learning. Your love for learning is incomparable to that of other students."
"The overall impression she gives is very active, and she likes reading very much. She reads text books such as The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. She also likes to communicate with her classmates and has a wide range of knowledge. " Teacher Huang said that at a class activity, Zhang Hanyu appeared on stage on behalf of his group and recited the full text of Mulan Ci. "At that time, my classmates and I were shocked."
Knowing that Hanyu will go to Chengdu to study in Grade One next semester, Mr. Huang was very surprised and sent a blessing: "I hope she can develop better in the future and bring more surprises to everyone."

World’s top IQ club
"mensa international"
Mensa international, known as the world’s top IQ club, was founded in Oxford, England in 1946, and soon developed into an international society with members in more than 100 countries around the world. Members of "mensa international" come from all walks of life. The only requirement for becoming a member of "mensa international" is to pass a series of intelligence tests and prove that their IQ ranks among the top 2% among people of the same age.
The word "MENSA" is a transliteration of the Latin word "Mensa", which means table, which means that the members of "Mensa" are "like sitting at the edge of a round table, with no difference in rank".
