看看外媒报道中国高考的用词,目测已被吓坏

【来源:易教网 点击数:1121 更新时间:2018-06-11

中国高考,举国关注,外媒也热烈围观。

不过看看他们的报道,总有一种隐隐的猎奇和迷之恐惧感扑面而来。

CNN用的词是,gueling,让人备受折磨、精疲力竭的……

正文里写着:

Millions of Chinese high schoolers will sit the country's grueling two-day college entrance examination, known as the gaokao, this week.

数百万中国高中生本周将参加为期两天的令人疲惫的大学入学考试,也即高考。

BBC用的词是“dreaded”,可怕的、令人恐惧的……

↑超过9百万学生要参加中国高考,据说是世界上最难的考试之一。

美国全国广播公司的报道说高考是a life-changing day,改变一生的一天。

↑他们全年无休地学习,从早7点到晚9点在教室里埋头苦做“成吨的习题”。所有这些都只为这一场大考。

很多外媒也报道了霍金发微博祝福高考学子的新闻。

《时代周刊》:来看看霍金给压力山大的(stressed)中国学生们发出的迷人讯息。

↑这个为期两天的考试决定了年轻人是否能进入自己心仪的大学。

此外,今年高考被称为“史上最严”,作弊首次入刑,最高可判7年。

外媒也对此进行了报道,路透社:

严重拘留:中国大学入学考试作弊或入监狱

↑中国国家媒体周二报道,在今年中国高考中作弊的学生将首次面临入狱风险,政府此举是为了打击这一竞争激烈的考试中作弊泛滥的问题。作弊者最高可判7年,同时在三年内禁止参加其他国家级考试。

很多外媒引用了新华社报道的用词,“a make-or-break challenge”,决定成败的挑战。

Called "gaokao" in Chinese, the examination is a make-or-break challengefor Chinese high school students, especially those from poor families.

对很多中国高中生来说,高考是成败在此一举的大挑战,对于那些家境贫困的孩子尤其如此。

还引述了一下高考时,全民助力的盛况:

So make-or-breakthat police would prevent drivers around the exam sites from blowing their horns, while hotels within easy reach of the Beijing exam centers were completely booked-out by parents who hoped to buy extra rest, or cram, time for their children.

这场考试太重要了,不成则败,以至于警察会阻止考场附近的司机按喇叭,北京考场周围的酒店会被家长一订而空,只为能给孩子多一些的休息时间,或抓紧时间再学一点。

BBC还报道了“高考保姆”(Gaokao nannies)的现象:

ProfessionalGaokao nannies are highly educated students or recent graduates that move in with students to study with them in the run up to the exam.

专业“高考保姆”是受高等教育的学生或刚毕业的大学生,他们和高考生同住陪读。

For example Zhao Yang, a Shanghai university freshman, is paid a daily wage of 300 yuan to chat with his client and stay up with him during all-nighters.

比如上海大学大一的赵阳(音译),每天收入300元,专门陪客户聊天,通宵达旦陪读。

以及紧俏的“高考房”('Top-Scorer' hotel rooms)

To save on time spent travelling to the test centre - which can then be better spent revising - some parents opt to pay for a hotel for their child.

为了节省到考场的时间,把这些时间用来复习,有一些家长选择为他们的孩子花钱住宾馆。

Many hotels offer special Gaokao packages for students, with hotels in Beijing charging up to 2,000 yuan per night. Despite high prices, many rooms have been fully booked.

许多宾馆都为考生提供了特殊的高考房套餐,北京的高考房要价高达两千一晚。虽然价格贵,许多房间还是被预订一空。

CNN甚至根据以往高考试卷翻译了一套考题,让外国人民感受天朝考试的难度。要不要一起来试试。答案在最末。
