Planting hope in countless young people. The "Hope Cup" National Mathematics Invitational Contest has been held annually since 1990. Up to this edition, a cumulative total of 330,000 first and second-year junior and senior high school students have participated. Due to the competition's questions being closely tied to secondary school mathematics teaching, rooted in textbooks yet exceeding them, all problems are designed to be novel, engaging yet not overly difficult, clever yet not biased, unremarkable, yet both accessible and sufficiently challenging. They effectively combine scientific rigor, knowledge, inspiration, and fun, greatly benefiting the improvement of secondary school students' mathematical skills and the cultivation of their innovative abilities. As a result, the contest is widely welcomed by students, teachers, and parents. An increasing number of mathematicians and mathematics educators have expressed enthusiastic praise and attention to the contest, believing it is highly beneficial to the development of Chinese mathematics education. This book includes all the questions and solutions from the first and second rounds of the 16th "Hope Cup" National Mathematics Invitational Contest for first and second-year high school students, as well as training questions and their solutions from 2005.
