CNN昨天发表了一篇名为“China's university entrance exams: Would you pass the test?(中国高考：你能通过吗?)”的文章，向外国读者详解了中国高考作文。

对于中国高考，CNN是这样评论的：

The annual National College Entrance Exams -- or gaokao -- are the only way to get into college. Failure means no degree, poorer job prospects and possibly a life of regret.

在中国，高考是进入大学的唯一途径。高考失败意味着没有高等学位和迷茫的就业前景，甚至这一生都可能活在遗憾之中。

The stakes are so high some students have stooped to ingenious methods of cheating -- so much so that authorities have started using drones as hall monitors.

这赌注似乎有些太过沉重，有些学生便铤而走险，想出各种方法试图在高考中作弊，以至于政府不得不用无人机在考场充当监视器。

One look at the questions is enough to send a shiver down the spine of even the most diligent student.

即使是最勤奋的学生，在拿到考卷第一眼看题时也会不由自主后脊发凉。
