656　Very serious about math 对数学绝不马虎

A little girl was failing math. Her mother enrolled her in Catholic school in the hopes to improve her math grades. During the first marking period, her mother noticed a dramatic improvement in her math studies. The girl would refuse playing with friends and eating dessert after dinner in order to study more. On report card day, her mother was astonished to see that her daughter got an A+ in math. She asked her daughter, “Why the sudden change of attitude about math—do the nuns punish you?” The girl replied, “No, but when I saw the little man on the wall nailed to the plus sign, I knew that this school is very serious about math!”

一个小姑娘数学不好。她妈妈把她转学到一所天主教学校，希望她的数学有进步。就在第一个评分阶段，她的数学学习就有了很大进步。为了能学得更多，她不去和小朋友玩，也不吃饭后的甜食。发成绩报告单的时候，她妈妈惊讶地发现她的数学得了A+。她的妈妈问她：“为什么你学习数学的态度有了这么大的转变？是不是修女们惩罚你们？”小姑娘回答说：“不是。不过当我看见墙上那个小男人被钉在加号上面，我知道这所学校对数学是绝不马虎的。”
