英国名首相温斯顿·丘吉尔曾经是个拙劣的学生。13岁时,他被送到哈罗公学求学。由于拉丁文差,入学的拉丁文考试上,他头脑白茫茫了两个小时,只在考卷上写了一个字,加上括弧,又用墨涂掉,再打上一些点。校长给他当大官的父亲面子,才录取了他。丘吉尔后来回忆说:“……冷酷的考试内容,对我是一种很大的折磨……主考偏重的拉丁文和数学,我几乎都不能给出满意的答案。” Winston Churchill, the prime minister, used to be a poor student. At the age of 13, he was sent to Harrow School for study. Due to poor Latin, entrance to the Latin exam, he had a blank mind for two hours, only a word written in the test paper, together with brackets, but also painted with ink, and then hit some points. The principal gave him the face of a dignitary father, before taking him. Churchill later recalled: “... ... cold test content, to me is a great deal of torture ... ... the main emphasis on Latin and math, I almost can not give a satisfactory answer. ”
