下面的文章啥意思啊,要完整的翻译
It was the last day of the final examination in a large eastern university. On the steps of one building, a group of students were talking about the exam that was going to begin in a few minutes . On their faces was confidence. This was their last exam—then on to graduation and jobs.
Some talked of jobs they already had, others talked of jobs they would get. With the certainty of four years of college, they felt ready and able to take control of the world.
The coming exam, they knew, would be an easy task, as 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.
Happily they entered the classroom. The professor passed out the papers. And smiles appeared on the students’ faces as they found there were only five questions.
Three hours had passed before the professor began to collect papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was a frightened expression. Papers in hand, no one spoke as the professor faced the class.
He looked at the worried faces before him, and then asked: “How many completed all five questions?" Not a hand was raised.
“How many answered four?” Still no hand.
“Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly in their seats.
“One, then? Certainly somebody finished one .” But the class remained silent.
The professor put down the papers. “That is exactly what I expected ,” he said. “I just want you to know that, although you have completed four years of study, there are still many things about the subject you don’t know. These questions you could not answer are relatively common in everyday practice.” Then, smiling, he added, “You will all pass this course, but remember—even though you are now college graduates, your education had just begun.”
The years have weakened the name of the professor, but not the lessons he taught.
这是最后一天的期末考试,在一个大的东部大学.一幢教学楼的台阶上,一群学生谈论考试.离开始只有几分钟.他们的脸上充满了自信.这是他们最后毕业考试.
有些人已经讨论到了未来的工作.四年的大学教育,他们觉得能够控制这个世界.
考试即将来临,他们知道,将是一个容易的事情,教授说了,他们可以带任何他们想要的书籍或笔记,只要求他们在测试中不互相交谈.
他们进了教室.教授把考卷发了撷取.微笑出现在学生们的面孔,他们发现只有五个问题.
三个小时过去了,教授开始收集文件.学生不再有信心.他们的脸上露出惊恐的表情.论文在手,没有人说话,作为教授面对课堂.
教授担心地看着面前的学生,问:“有多少人完成了所有五个问题吗?”没人举手.
“有多少回答四提?”还没有人举手.
“三题?两题?“学生不安地坐在自己的座位上.
“一个,然后呢?肯定有人完成一个.”但教室仍然保持沉默.
教授放下试卷.“这正是我所期望的,”他说.“我只是想让你知道,虽然你已完成四年的学习,仍然有许多事情你不知道.这些问题你可以不回答比较常见的日常实践.”然后,微笑,他补充说,“你会通过这个课程,但铭记你现在是大学生,你的教育才刚刚开始.”
多年来人们忘记了教授的名字,但他教的课却至今令我们印象深刻.
