It’s tempting to conclude that the exam system is wrong to inflict such pain for so little gain. It is not as if we remember the facts that we stuffed into our heads at the very last minute. On the evening of my finals, I could probably have told you about Wittgenstein’s view on the indeterminacy of translation but now all I can recall is the picture that was a duck one minute and a rabbit the next.
我们很容易得出这样一个结论:考试制度造成如此大的痛苦,但换来的收获如此之少,证明这种制度存在问题。我们根本记不住在最后一分钟硬塞进脑子里的那些事实。在期末考试前一天晚上,我或许还能够告诉你维特根斯坦(Wittgenstein)有关翻译不准确性的看法,但现在,我只记得起那幅上一分钟还是鸭子,下一分钟却变成兔子的图片。
