“Fourth, textbook is important. Talking about studying is also talking about exercise books and references, but although this child since elementary school till now only uses textbooks, his grades are good. Of course, I know that he often went to explore library and buy things in bookshop, but textbook is the basic. Because of that, don’t take it lightly, let’s do the textbooks heartily.” “….It’s surprising. I thought I will be given a thick exercise book.” For this matter, Makoto answered. “Although naturally, nothing’s coming out on tests that are not taken from textbooks and lessons. Textbook is written by adults who take many hours, selecting carefully to make it up, so it turns into a good book.” “Is that so….that’s right, isn’t it!?” Although it could be called obvious, for Madoka who had imagined studying as grappling with references and exercise books, the one just now was new. Probably, she was too tightly holding onto the image that studying is difficult. “And the last one, most important is the ability to concentrate.”
“Eh!? The ability to concentrate is that important?” Makoto nodded. “Madoka-chan is a member of track and field club, right!?”
“Yes”
“For example, when you run on 100m track 10 times until sweating everyday, the time needed will advance, don’t you think!?”
“….doesn’t advance. Instead, I will probably crash.”
“If you concentrate with your whole energy to run 10 times everyday, what do you think?”
“I think to advance…. So, that’s how it is, if doing that, concentrating, then the burden will be reduced. “[1] Maho nodded “Whether using the right method. Or multiplying amount. Or concentrating to reduce the burden. From now on, relate in multiplying it with each other . Anything’s like that.”[2]
“The right method….” Toward Madoka who hasn’t yet understand well enough, Maho continued her explanation. “In track and field, the aforementioned right method for instance is the right form. Otherwise, if the running method is incorrect, the habit is wrong, so the record will not advance, there are even cases where it harms one’s body, isn’t it!?”
“Ah, Yes.” Maho’s explanation was easily understood. “The multiplying amount is related to the practice time. 集中して負荷をかけるというのは、さっき話したように自分の力を出し切らないと、なかなか成長には繋がらない、ということ”[3]
“Yes.”
“For example, if wanted to improve grades, everyone thinks to increase study time. However, unexpectedly, people who realize the right method is through concentration are few. I think, this is the important point for Madoka-chan to surpa.s.s others in the next three years.” Madoka nodded deeply.
Until now, only trying to increase study time, She remembered experiencing setback several times.
It’s surprisingly difficult to increase study time. “Madoka-chan, have you ever received an award in track and field?”
“Ah, yes. I received second place in prefectural tournament.”
“Wonderful! As expected. Then, I think, if you are being taught, the result will appear immediately.”
“Uh, I’m worried…” After looking at Makoto’s ability to concentrate, Madoka’s confidence disappeared.
Maho kindly stroked Madoka’s head. “It’s okay. It’s all right. So, till here is the basic principles. Could you understand?”
“Yes…but, what I should do is still…”
“Of course, we haven’t talked about the specific method.”
“Oh?”
“It’s now time to get an accurate grasp of the situation.”
“………” Until the words, “Please let me go home” almost go out of her throat.
Those words were swallowed along with saliva. She understood that courage is an important thing to reach a dream.
Madoka gently pa.s.sed her report card and test.
Maho pick it with her hand, then took a cursory look at it. “…yes. Mostly as expected. ….rather Mathematics is desolate, isn’t it!?” Madoka’s face turning red and she hang her head embarra.s.sedly.
Looking at the test, Makoto made eyes as if watching something strange.
For him, those numbers are like unbelievable. “….Mou, please forgive me…” “No, don’t be like that, I’m not blaming you. From now on will be improved. We are merely confirming the starting point.” “Then, it’s okay if it’s like that, but….” Madoka’s voice gradually became smaller.
Maho once again caressed her head. “It’s all right. Although the one who will fight is Madoka, but there’s potentials for sure. Be confident.”
“….Yes.”
“Now then, let’s talk about the specific method. Makoto, please go on.” Makoto teared a page off the notebook, showed it in front of Madoka who was still red till her ears.
There were some items written there. “…..s.h.i.+sho, that’s impossible.” Madoka became crestfallen and dropped her shoulder. “Let’s do it.”
“I don’t have the confidence.”
“Let’s do it.”
“…..yes.”
“You can do it. It’s all right.” Although in the beginning, it was enforced on Makoto, but there was a faint sense of “You probably can do it” in his heart.[4] “I don’t think that you will be able to do all of it all the time. First of all, do it on the subject that’s your strong point….maybe, it’s History.” (Makoto)
“….Yes, if I have to.” (Madoka)
“It’s enough to do it one frame a day. First of all, decide what is the goal or time of the day.” (Makoto) “Madoka-chan. Ganbatte ne~”
Toward Madoka who was crestafallen and whose shoulder dropped, Maho happily waving her hands to cheer her up. ———
