So Much to Learn

学无止境

It was the last day of the final examination in a large Eastern university. On the steps of one building, a group of engineering seniors huddled, discussing the exam due to begin in a few minutes. On their faces was confidence. This was their last exam-then on to commencement and jobs.

这是东部一所大学期终考试的最后一天。在一栋建筑物的台阶上，一群工程学高年级学生围在一起，对即将开始的考试议论纷纷。他们的脸上洋溢着自信。这将是他们求学时期的最后一场考试了，前面等待着他们的将是毕业并迈向各自的工作岗位。

Some talked of jobs they already had; others talked of jobs they would get. With all the assurance of four years of college, they felt ready and were able to conquer the world.

他们有的讨论着已经获得的工作，有的则讨论即将参加的工作。经过四年大学教育，他们觉得自己已经为征服这个世界做足了准备。

The approaching exam, they knew, would be a snap. The professor had said they could bring any books or notes they wanted, requesting only that they did not talk to each other during the test.

他们知道面临的考试只不过是小菜一碟。教授说他们可以带任何书籍或笔记进入考场，唯一的要求是在考试期间不能讨论。

Jubilantly they fielded into the classroom. The professor passed out the papers. And smiles broadened as the students noted there were only five essay-type questions.

随后他们兴冲冲地涌入考场。教授开始发试卷。当学生们看到试卷上只有五条问答题时，他们露出舒心的微笑。
