1.When I was at the
university I studied very hard.But a lot of my friends did very little work.
Some just did enough to pass exams.Others didn’t do quite enough.Fred Baines
was one of them.He spent more time drinking in the bar than working in the
library.
Once,
at the end of the term,we had to take an important test in chemistry.The test
had a hundred questions.Beside each question we had to write “True” or
“False”.While I was studying in my room the night before the test,Fred was
watching television.Fred usually worried a lot the night before a test.But on
that night he looked perfectly calm.Then he told me of his plan.
“It’s
very simple.There are a hundred questions and I have to get fifty correct to
pass the test.I’ll take a coin into the examination room.I haven’t studied a
chemistry book for months,so I just toss (掷) the coin.That way,I’m sure I’ll get half the questions right.”
The
next day,Fred came cheerfully into the examination room.As he sat tossing a
coin for half an hour he marked down the answers.Then he left,half an hour
before the rest of us.
The
next day,he saw the chemistry professor in the corridor (走廊).Fred asked him about the results of the test.The professor
looked at him and smiled.“Ah,it’s you,Baines.Just a minute.” Then he
reached into his pocket and took out a coin.He threw it into the air,caught
it in his hand and looked at it.“I am terribly sorry,Baines,” he said.“You
failed!”
