Recently, the news of "688 points in the college entrance examination for teenagers with rare diseases in Shandong" has attracted attention.
A reporter from China Youth Daily learned from Tsinghua University that Zhang Yixuan, a candidate from Heze, Shandong Province, who suffers from congenital albinism, has been admitted to Tsinghua University's Strong Foundation Program, majoring in mathematics and applied mathematics at Zhili College.
According to Dazhong.com, from the moment she was born, Zhang Yixuan was diagnosed with congenital albinism. In addition to the symptoms brought by the disease, Zhang Yixuan's skin is sensitive to sunlight and easy to sunburn, as well as serious damage to her vision.
In class, he needs to use a telescope to see the content of the board written by the teacher, "This is the telescope I use to see the teacher's board book, very small and light, the magnification is enough, I have tried many models before, this is the most satisfying, it will not affect my learning too much, I will look at where the teacher writes, and I can remember what I have seen." ”
When reading, he also needs to wear a magnifying glass, and in order to be able to read the words on the book, Zhang Yixuan almost needs to stick the book on his face.
"He does have to work harder in his studies, and the homework that others may complete quickly, he often takes longer because he can't see clearly." However, in the view of Zhang Yixuan's mother, the child has shown extraordinary self-discipline since he was a child, in the process of growing up, in terms of learning, parents did not interfere too much, and it is Zhang Yixuan's own habit to complete his homework first after arriving home every day.
Now, Zhang Yixuan has been admitted to the university of her dreams, and hopes to continue her graduate and doctoral studies in the future, and become a leader in the field of mathematics in the industry.
"A mathematical problem that we are solving now may not be immediately applied, but in a few hundred years, this mathematical theorem or problem can be used in fields such as physics or chemistry to try to make some achievements and help the development of the country and society, which is what I am most interested in." Zhang Yixuan said.
