Recently, I decided to apply for a driver's license in China. Since I already have one from the U.S., the main thing I had to do was pass a computerized test on the rules of the road here. I figured it would be a breeze.
最近,我决定申请中国驾照。因为我在美国已经有驾照了,所以现在只要通过计算机里有关交通规则的考试就行。我想这还不是轻而易举么!
Driving and car ownership have taken off in China. Last year, the country added nearly 18 million drivers. There is so much demand for licenses that I had to wait a month for the first available testing date.
买车和开车在中国已经相当普遍了。去年,中国新增了近1800万开车族。申请驾照的人太多,我等了一个月才有机会参加初试。
The night before my test, I decided to take a practice one online. There were 100 questions drawn from a pool of nearly 1,000. You had to get 90 correct to pass.
考试前一晚,我决定先在网上练习一下。考试共100题,从1000个题目中抽取而成,满90分才算通过。
I got a 65 and started to panic. On the way to the testing center the next day, I crammed on my iPad, but still only scored a 77.
我考了65分,不禁紧张起来。第二天去考场的路上,我用iPad又做了一遍,结果才有77分。
Why is the Chinese driver's test so hard? For one thing, it requires a ton of memorization. Consider this yes or no question, taken verbatim from a test:
