做梦的空间(下)(8)
“You are not stupid, why don't you make some effort to prepare for exams?”
“What is the point of doing so? Is Einstein known for high grades? Did Edison spend one second on it? Is it because Faraday is a hero on the test paper that he laid the foundation of electromagnetics?” Being disgusted with her platitudes, I asked in reply with a silver tongue.
“Einstein, Edison or Faraday, none of them exist in a vacuum. They are, first and foremost, men in realty. They need to bring home the bacon. They are eager to be recognized by the mainstream world. The achievement and success aside, what I know is that you will be knocked out from the current community if you don't learn to deal with exams and follow the crowd.” Mary did her best to convince me, as if I was her child.
“Ok, Ok, you prepare for your exams and I'm willing to be eliminated.” I said in a fit of pique.
“You are too young to know what you are doing. It will be too late to understand everything when you are grown up, but it is not too late now to change yourself and adapt to the environment.” She put on the airs of an adult and talked down to me.
