在名篇The Adventures of Tom Sawyer 中,提及主人公Tom的学校老师制定规则来鼓励孩子们背诵圣经。
If a student could recite two verses, the teacher would give him one blue ticket; ten
blue tickets were equal to one red ticket; ten red tickets could be exchanged for a
yellow ticket; if anybody could get ten yellow tickets, the teacher would give him or
her a new Bible. Getting the thick book was the greatest honor for the children. So
many children were busy reciting every day. They just wanted to get a Bible.
在Tom看来,他无法完成,于是聪明的他就想到可以和别人互换来获取卡片。He exchanged his small things for cards in other children’s hands. In this way, he gotmany cards.
