Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as
children but have never practised in the meantime. A man who has not had an opportunity
swim as well as ever when he gets back in the

away. A mother
who has not (57)
the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins
“Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: (58)
we have learned something, additional learning increases the (59) of time we will
remember it.
In childhood, we usually continue to practise such skills as swimming, bicycle
riding long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and (60) ourselves of
poems such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella
or Snow White. We not only learn but (61) .
The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习) for an examination, (62)

it may result in a passing grade, is not a (63)
course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the
examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little
overlearning, (64)

investment toward the future.

For almost two months Dominic York, a 23-year-old hairdresser, wandered about
hospitals at night, wearing a white coat and pretending he was a doctor. Yesterday he
proudly claimed in court that despite his complete lack of medical experience or
qualifications, he had saved several people’s lives. He had even been allowed to assist
a surgeon during an emergency operation on a patient who was about to die on something
she had swallowed.
“I watched one of those TV dramas about a hospital and suddenly I felt like playing
one of the roles myself. So I put on a white jacket and a stethoscope(听诊器) and walked
around one of the biggest hospitals in London. At first I just watched. Once you learn
how doctors talk to patients, nurses and other doctors, it’s easy to take people in,”
he said.
One of the patients he treated was Laura Kennan. She had been knocked down by a car
and fainted. When she came to in hospital, York was standing over her.
“He looked very professional. He told me his name was Doctor Simon. Then he gave me
some sort of injection,” she said. And then he suddenly cleared off when a nurse asked
who he was. She didn’t think there was anything wrong. “I would never have realized he
was a fake if a policewoman hadn’t showed me his photograph a week later. When the
policewoman told me who he really was, I could hardly believe my ears.”
Judge Raymond Adams told York that he was “shocked and horrified” that he got away
with his deceiving for so long, and then sentenced him to eighteen months in a special
prison for criminals with mental disorders.
“I can only hope that this will not lead to further problems. After all, you will
have considerable opportunity to study the behaviour of the psychiatrists( 精 神 科 医 生 )
who will look after you while you are there. If you try to persuade people that you
yourself are a psychiatrist after you are set free, I shall make sure that you are given
a much longer sentence,” Judge Adams warned York.

We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and
examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want
only to destroy it.
Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of
achievement must regularly test its pupils. The
