The Open-Book Exam | 开卷考试

English Original

On the day of our final exam at my community college in Santa Maria, Calif., we heard the bookstore had changed its policy and would buy back our business-management textbooks. Before class, several of us dashed over to sell our books. We were seated and waiting for the test when our professor announced that, considering the difficulty of the final, it would be an open-book exam.

我在加利福尼亚圣玛丽亚的一所社区大学就读。期末考试那天,我们听说书店改变了政策,愿意回购我们的工商管理课本。上课前,我们几个人赶忙跑到书店把书卖了。当我们坐好等待考试时,教授宣布:考虑到期末考试的难度,本次考试将采用开卷形式。
