| The Test | A Prova |
| Look what a professor is capable of doing. | Olhem o que um professor é capaz de fazer. |
| The fact narrated below is real and happened in an Engineering course, soon becoming one of the "legends" of the college. | O fato narrado abaixo é real e aconteceu em um curso de Engenharia da USJT (Univ. São Judas Tadeu), tornando-se logo uma das "lendas" da faculdade. |
| On the eve of an exam, 4 students decided to throw everything up in the air: they were going to travel. | Na véspera de uma prova, 4 alunos resolveram chutar o balde: iriam viajar. |
| They missed the exam and then decided to do something about it. | Faltaram a prova e então resolveram dar um "jeitinho". |
| They returned on Tuesday, but the exam had taken place on Monday. | Voltaram a USJT na terça, sendo que a prova havia ocorrido na segunda. |
| Then they went to the professor: | Então dirigiram-se ao professor: |
| -- Professor, we went on a trip, the tire got flat, we couldn't fix it, we had a thousand problems, and because of all this we were late, but, we would like to take the exam. | -- Professor, fomos viajar, o pneu furou, não conseguimos consertá-lo, tivemos mil problemas, e por conta disso tudo nos atrasamos, mas, gostaríamos de fazer a prova. |
| The teacher, always understanding: | O professor, sempre compreensivo: |
| -- Of course, you can take the test this afternoon, after lunch. | -- Claro, vocês podem fazer a prova hoje a tarde, após o almoço. |
| And so it was done. | E assim foi feito. |
| The boys rushed home and studied as hard as possible. | Os rapazes correram para casa e se racharam de tanto estudar, na medida do possível. |
| When it was time for the exam, the teacher put each student in a different room and handed out the exam: | Na hora da prova, o professor colocou cada aluno em uma sala diferente e entregou a prova: |
| First question, worth 1 point: something about Ohm's Law. | Primeira pergunta, valendo 1 ponto: algo sobre a Lei de Ohm. |
| The four were happy because they had seen something about the subject. | Os quatro ficaram contentes pois haviam visto algo sobre o assunto. |
| They thought that the test would be very easy and that they had managed to "get along". | Pensaram que a prova seria muito fácil e que haviam conseguido se "dar bem". |
| Second question, worth 9 points: "Which tire went flat?" | Segunda pergunta, valendo 9 pontos: "Qual pneu furou?" |
