今天的头条，当然要给高考啦！
对于高三学生们来说，今天一定是人生中的一大“高光时刻”。
一年一度的高考，拉开了帷幕。
据教育部6月5日公布的数据显示，2019年全国高考报名人数达到1031万。
真·千军万马过独木桥。
China's National College Entrance Examination, known as the Gaokao in Chinese, is an academic examination for entrance into colleges and universities.
Figures from the Ministry of Education show that the number of applicants in 2019 reached 10.31 million.
“吓得理科生质壁分离，文科生政教合一”的高考作文题
对于经历过高考的人来说，最大的感触也许是高中是“人生知识水平的巅峰”。
那时候，可谓上知天文、下知地理，算得了三角函数，解得出高次方程，记得住气候洋流，背得出历史年表......
今天上午，2019年高考作文题一出炉，就有不少人吐槽：看完今天的高考题，无比庆幸坐在考场上的不是我。
The examination encompasses all foundational subjects, including the Chinese language, foreign language (typically English), mathematics, physics, chemistry, history and politics. The exam's questions and essay prompts vary by province.
This year's essay topics touch on current events and philosophy. For instance, test takers in Beijing dealt with topics related to the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the May 4th Movement. Meanwhile, students in the provinces of Zhejiang and Jiangsu ruminated on philosophical questions.
高考，是回忆，也是段子手们的狂欢
考场上学生们在奋笔疾书，考场外的网友们也没有闲着。如今的高考俨然也是一场网友们的“造梗”大赛。每年高考，总有那么一些梗会霸屏社交网络。
Gaokao doesn't only signify a serious event but has also prompted netizens to share their jokes, roasts and memes about the exam on social media.
We've picked out some famous memes and trending topics on Gaokao.
Mr.You Know Who：“数学帝葛军”
每年高考的时候，“葛军”这个名字必会出现在微博热搜榜上。
葛军，南京师范大学附属中学校长，曾多次参与高考数学卷命题，因“命题试题难度大”而著称。
“葛军”这个名字让无数考生“闻风丧胆”，网友们戏称：“葛军是能让全国数学平均分下降50分的数学帝”、“葛军出题，没有最难，只有更难！”
网友调侃葛军出的试卷难度大
但广大考生们请放心，葛老师在2015年接受采访时曾表示“在没有特殊情况下，以后应该不会再参加高考命题了。”
Nicknamed "the Emperor of Mathematics," Ge Jun, principal of the high school affiliated with Nanjing Normal University, is frequently mentioned during every year's Gaokao, especially after the conclusion of the mathematics test. Test takers say that Ge, who has participated several times in designing the mathematics portion of the Gaokao, designed the portion to be "extremely difficult."
鲁迅：不是我说的
除了“数学帝”，鲁迅也是每年“高考时节必上热搜”。
鲁迅的作品常出现在高考语文阅读题和作文题里。此外，他的各种语录和故事也是考生们写作的必备素材。
然而，每年考卷上也会出现一些杜撰的“名言语录”，被贴上“鲁迅先生说过”的标签。
不过，“鲁迅名言”现在可不能随便编造了。
今年，鲁迅博物馆网站上线了“鲁迅博物馆资料查询在线检测系统”（网址：http://cx.luxunmuseum.com.cn/）。该网站可检索鲁迅著作全编、译作全编及研究月刊等内容，鲁迅的作品和名言语录都有据可查。
Lu Xun, the leading figure of modern Chinese literature in the 20th century, was also a trending topic on social media during the exam period. Excerpts from Lu's works often appear on the Chinese language test, while examinees like to quote his words in their essays.
However, many test takers use quotes that were not actually said by the literary master. They are not alone. There are often fake quotes attributed to Lu online. To remedy this, the Beijing Lu Xun Museum this year has developed a searchable online database of his works and quotes.
教辅界“四大流量”
而高考季，也绕不开四个让考生们“又爱又恨”的人：王后雄、任志鸿、卫鑫、薛金星。
他们出版的《王后雄系列》、《优化设计》、《五年高考三年模拟》以及《薛金星教辅》简直是“高中三年必备”。
对于考生们来说，这些教材从教室到枕边，陪伴了刷题复习的日日夜夜，也记录了一个个和青春有关的日子。
To prepare for the life-changing exam, students use popular exercise books from publishers Wang Houxiong, Ren Zhihong, and Wei Xin. Some even keep them as a memento because the dense notes in the books are a testament to their hard work.
“迷惑行为大赏”：忘带准考证、迟到、跑错考场......
除了各种和高考有关的题目和回忆，每年高考季刷屏社交网络的还有一些 “高考例行新闻”
微博上有博主总结了这些“例行新闻”，包括：忘带准考证、跑错考场、差点迟到、身份证过期等。
在交警等有关部门工作人员的帮助下，这些“例行新闻”一般都有个“happy ending”。
不过也有网友表示，面对高考，产生紧张心理不可避免，但是考生们也应该自己做好充足的考前准备。毕竟未来，并不是每一次都有人为你开绿灯，保驾护航。
Every year, students make the headlines when they forget to bring their ID cards, go to the wrong exam sites or arrive late.
These students can still have a happy ending since police and school staff often help them in anticipation of the chaos during the Gaokao period. Traffic police are even stationed near schools to ensure the smooth flow of traffic and help test takers get to their intended destinations.
Some netizens, however, say that special support shouldn't be given to those who should be responsible for every detail leading up to the exam.
