College assignments often test our creativity. However, some students take it a little too far and even risk to fail a course. Luckily, there still are some professors who recognize and encourage their student’s sense of humor and allow a little bit of fun. Allison Garret recently proved to be one of the lucky ones. She shared her assignment on twitter and it quickly went viral for all the right reasons.

大学作业经常考验我们的创造力。

然而，有些学生则有些过分，甚至冒着失败的风险。

幸运的是，仍有一些教授认可并鼓励学生的幽默感，并允许作业中存在一些乐趣。

艾莉森·加勒特最近被证明是幸运儿之一。

她在twitter上分享了她的作业，很快就火遍互联网。

For one of her college classes, Allison was assigned to write a movie review.

在艾莉森大学的一个课上，她被要求写一篇电影评论。

Allison was assigned to write a movie review, it was required for the essay to be at least 500 words long, however, she only wrote one sentence. However, everyone who has seen Fight Club, the movie she chose to review, knows that you probably cannot review it better than this.

艾莉森被要求写一篇影评。

论文至少需要500字的长度，但她只写了一句话。

然而，她选择的电影《搏击俱乐部》

只要知道这个电影的人都会觉得任何影评都没有艾莉森的这个影评好。

She chose to review Fight Club and decided to ignore all of the rules that apply to the assignment.

她选择写《搏击俱乐部》的影评并决定忽略所有适用于写论文的规则。

Her review reads:

她的评论写道：

“Fight Club

'The first rule of fight club is: you do not talk about fight club.’

That’s it. That’s the essay”

“搏击俱乐部

'搏击俱乐部的第一条规则是：不要谈论搏击俱乐部。’

就是这样。这就是论文”

After giving it some though Allison’s professor decided to give her 100/100 points for the essay. You have to admit, her approach to the assignment was quite witty and unconventional, but very suiting for the film she reviewed.

提交论文后，尽管艾莉森的教授决定给她这篇文章100/100分。

你得承认，她完成任务的方式很机智，

不墨守成规，非常适合她看的电影。
