在比爾·蓋茨寫給高中畢業生和大學畢業生的書里，有一個單子上面列有11項學生沒能在學校里學到的事情。比爾·蓋茨在書中談到讓你感覺良好的"政治上正確"的教導培養出一整代不知現實為何物的年輕人，這種教育只能導致他們成為現實世界中的失敗者。 　　
The 11 things are: 　　這11項事情是：

1. Life is not fair, get used to it.

　　1. 生活是不公平的；要去適應它。

　2. The world won"t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself.

　　2.這世界并不會在意你的自尊。這世界指望你在自我感覺良好之前先要有所成就。

3. You will not make 40 thousand dollars a year right out of high school. You won"t be a vice president with a car phone, until you earn both.

　　3.高中剛畢業你不會一年掙4萬美元。你不會成為一個公司的副總裁，并擁有一部裝有電話的汽車，直到你將此職位和汽車電話都掙到手。

　4. If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss. He doesn"t have tenure.

　　4.如果你認為你的老師嚴厲，等你有了老板再這樣想。老板可是沒有任期限制的。

　5. Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping; they called it opportunity.

　　5.烙牛肉餅并不有損你的尊嚴。你的祖父母對烙牛肉餅可有不同的定義；他們稱它為機遇。

6. If you mess up, it"s not your parents" fault, so don"t whine about our mistakes, learn from them.

　　6.如果你陷入困境，那不是你父母的過錯，所以不要尖聲抱怨我們的錯誤，要從中吸取教訓。
