柘字怎么读-一味的意思

t use my academic training and my verbal talents but had to do something intricate or hard, working with my hands, I would do poorly. My intelligence, then, is not absolute. Its worth is determined by the society I live in. Its numerical evaluation is determined by a small subsection of that society which has managed to foist itself on the rest of us as an arbiter of such matters.

那好,假定让我的汽车修理师来为智力测验设计题目。或是让一位木匠、一个农夫或者是除了学究以外的几乎任何一个人来设计题目。按每一次这类的测验来衡量,我都会表明自己是一个笨蛋,而且我也会真的成为一个笨蛋。在一个无法运用我所受过的学校训练以及我在词语方面的才能,而不得不用双手工作,做一些复杂或艰苦的事情的世界上,我会干得很差劲。因此,我的智力并不是绝对的。它的价值是由我生活在其中的社会所决定的。它的数值是由那个社会中的一小部分人决定的,他们作为这类事情的仲裁人已设法把他们的意志强加在我们身上。

Consider my auto repairman, again. He had a habit of telling me jokes whenever he saw me. One time he raised his head from under the automobile hood to say: "Doc, a deaf-and-dumb guy went into a hardware store to ask for some nails. He put two fingers together on the counter and made hammering motions with the other hand. The clerk brought him a hammer. He shook his head and pointed to the two fingers he was hammering. The clerk brought him nails. He picked out the sizes he wanted, and left. Well, doc, the next guy who came in was a blind man. He wanted scissors. How do you suppose he asked for them?"

再来考虑一下我的汽车修理师吧。他有个习惯,每次见到我都要跟我讲些笑话。有一次他从汽车引擎罩下面抬起头来说:“博士,有一个又聋又哑的人走进一家五金店买钉子。他把两个手指头一起放在柜台上,用另一只手做了几次锤击动作。”“店员给他拿来一把锤子。他摇摇头,指了指他正在敲击的那两个手指头。店员给他拿来了钉子。他选出了自己需要的尺寸,然后就走了。听好,博士,接着进来的是一个瞎子。他要买剪刀。你猜他是怎样表示的呢?”

I lifted my right hand and made scissoring motions with my first two fingers. Whereupon my auto repairman laughed heartily and said, "Why, you dumb fool, he used his voice and asked for them." Then he said, smugly, "I've been trying that on all my customers today." "Did you catch many?" I asked. "Quite a few," "he said, "but I knew for sure I'd catch you." "Why is that?" I asked. "Because you're so goddamned educated, doc, I knew you couldn't be very smart."

我举起右手,用食指和中指做了几次剪切动作。我的汽车修理师一看就开心地哈哈大笑起来说:“啊,你这个笨蛋,
他是用他的嗓子说他要买剪刀的。”接着他又沾沾自喜地说:“今天我用这个问题把我所有的主顾都考了一下。”“上当的人多吗?”我问。“不少,”他说。“但我事先就吃准你一定会上当。”“那为什么?”我问。“因为你受的教育太多了,博士,我知道你不会太精明的。”

And I have an uneasy feeling he had something there.

我有一种不安的感觉:他的话不无道理。
