The examiner was conducting a science course at a local school. One of his requirements in the written examination was the following: _ “ Define a bolt and nut and explain the difference, if any?” _ The student wrote: “ A bolt is a thing like a stick of hard metal, such as iron, a square bunch on one end, and a lot of scratching wound round the other end. A nut is similar to the bolt only just the opposite, being a hole in a little chunk of iron sawed off short with wrinkles around the inside of the hole.
