    柏林某小破学校中一个小破机房发生的惊魂4+小时

    在我临时抱佛脚的规划生涯中,标志性事件之一,肯定就是这次TOEFL考试了。按照商学院最后必须送达成绩的dealine,偶紧吧吧的在国内注册未遂前提下,竟然要去柏林考着破考试。

    考场在柏林中心某小语言学校。这个同考者的diversity还是略有趣味的。例如,有某印度大龄女青年,头巾裹得严严实实,手提一个我从来没见过颜色的LV包包。过会来的时尚女青年,鼻子嘴唇俨然两环穿越,肃然起敬。其他包括穿黑丝袜的女考生,穿棉袜的女考生(大热天!)若干。

    所有考试规则,第一遍德语。过了一会,“for non-German speakers”搞定英语是阿拉母语一样,听的无比亲切。

    考试10点准时开始,开始测试麦克风。发现欧洲同志们说起英语来,打嗝楞的风格和模式,与伟大祖国同志们,也是相当吻合的。

    时光飞逝,4个多小时,在偶身心俱疲,心力交瘁之际,眼看最后作文部分只剩5分钟了,偶开始了从小到大一直都进行的心理斗争。提前交卷吧,爽气。但是,就为这个破考试,还特地从法兰克福飞过来,稍微重视点,再象征性看看吧。

    结果当我把鼠标移到第一段时候。。。当屏幕右上角只剩3分钟就能结束的刹那。。。电脑蓝屏了。。。

    SXXX!沉默5秒,教室各个角落发出骚乱声音(估计掺杂着German 版本的SXXX)。监考老师面如土色,一到危难关头,也不管non-German speaker了,嘀嘀咕咕说了10多分钟德语。。。在隔壁同考同志“异步翻译后”。。。整个考场和server连接断了~~~

    监考者开始重启每个机器,看看远程储存到什么状态。

    左边一个抹胸女反复自言自语,i really need a shopping after this, sXXX, SXXX~~~偶无比钦佩的抹胸女继续嘀咕“I cannot understand why they cannot put this test on a fxxing piece of paper。”偶插话“现在21世纪了。。。”抹胸女大笑,继续嘀咕着“fxxing paper”云云。

    不幸中万幸,差不多半个多小时折腾后,偶的机器reset到了断开前某状态。虽然丢失了部分writing,一咬牙也就再写一遍了。可怜的是很多同考者,reset后,考试部分回到了断开前。。。时间。。。却自己走完了。监考老师说,会说明这个情况,让评分者“酌情”给分。偶无比钦佩的抹胸女继续说道“How? Just imanage there is a terrific writing here ... in the blank area...Or shall I write I am really good at writing?”

    偶劫后余生般走出考场,怨念的望着那个教室。不一会儿,印度大姐也交卷了,“I wish you good luck”。还是发展中国家同志心连心啊。迈开小步,去柏林boat trip...
