◎這篇"營養學分"是我妹的英文段考的閱讀測驗,因為覺得相當有趣,
所以波給大家欣賞。所謂"Mickey Mouse course"就是營養學分課,
也就是連米老鼠都能夠上的課。各位如能耐著性子讀完這篇文章,
一定能發現其可笑之處。想了一想,我們的歷史、日現應該屬於此類吧。
A Mickey Mouse course is any college course that is so easy
that even Mickey or Minnie Mouse could achieve "A" grade.
A student who is taking a heavy schedule, or who does not
want four or five especially difficult courses, will try to
sandwich in a Mickey Mouse course. Students in a Mickey
Mouse course can attend the classes while half-asleep,
hung-over or wearing stereo earphones or a blindfold; they
will still pass. The course exam (if there any) would not
challenge a five-year-old. The course lectures usually consist
of information that anyone with common sense knows anyway.
Attendance may be required, but participation or involvement
in the course is not. The main requirement for passing is that
a student's body is there, warming a seat in the classroom.
There are no difficult labs or special projects, and term papers
are never mentioned. Once safely registered for such a course,
all the students have to do is sit back and watch the credits
accumulate on their transcripts.
