Four university students were unwise enough to play cards until dawn the day before an exam. As they were now unprepared to take the test, they came up with a solution.

They used grease and dirt to make themselves look dirty, and then they went up to the professor and said they went out for a wedding last night. When it was time for them to go home, they discovered that their car had a flat tire, so they had to push the car all the way home. It was for this reason that they couldn’t take the exam.

The professor said they could make it up in three days.

The four students thanked the professor and said they would be fully prepared for the exam by then.

After three days of hard studying, they met with the professor to take their exam.

The professor said, “Because this is a special make-up test, the four of you will sit in different classrooms to take the exam.”

They all agreed with this rule because they had studied hard day and night for the past three days and believed that they were ready.

To their great surprise, there were only two short answers on the test:

1. Which tire blew out? (50 points)

a) Front left:

b) Right front:

c) Back left:

d) Back right:

2. Where were the four of you sitting in the car? (50 points)

a) Front left:

b) Right front:

c) Back left:

d) Back right:

(This is a true story that happened at a certain college in 1992. All four students failed the course.)

The moral of the story is to never underestimate your teacher.

永遠不要低估你的老師

某所大學四名學生打牌打到天亮,無法參加第二天的考試,他們想到了一個辦法⋯

他們用油脂和污垢使自己看起來很髒,然後他們走到教授面前說他們昨晚出去參加婚禮,回來時車胎爆了,他們不得不把車一直推回去,所以沒能參加考試。

教授說他們可以在三天後補考。

這四個學生向教授表示感謝,並且說到時候他們會充分準備好考試。

經過三天的苦讀,他們出現在教授面前。

教授說:因為這是一個特殊條件的補考,你們四個人要坐在不同的教室裡進行考試。

他們都同意了,因為他們在過去的三天裡日夜苦讀、也準備好了。

考試只有 二道簡答題,總分為 100 分

題目是:
