    孩子与火车

    假如有这样一件事情:
    在两段铁轨上,有一群小孩子正在玩耍.
    这两段铁轨有一段已经废弃了,另一段仍有火车通行.
    几乎所有的孩子都在有火车通行的铁轨上玩耍,因为那里有更多的石子和煤炭,只有一个孩子觉得这样很危险,独自一个人在弃用的铁轨上玩.
    这时,突然有一列火车飞驰而来.
    站在扳道口上的人有两个选择:一,毅然扳下扳手让火车转向,以牺牲那一个孩子为代价挽救其他的孩子;二,什么也不做,任由火车通过.
    如果此时你恰好站在扳道口处,你会怎么做?试阐述你的理由.
    多年以前我还在读小学的时候,试卷上曾出现过一道类似的问答题,大意是在当时的危机情况下,某铁路职工不顾凶险飞身冲上铁路的扳道口,将火车引向了废弃的铁轨一侧,果断的"牺牲小我挽救大我",一时传为佳话......在题目的最后,则是让答题者回答这位"英雄"的英勇事迹体现了怎样的果决精神及其榜样意义.
    犹记得,当时的我思索片刻之后,只写出了短短两行字:
    "我不赞同他的做法,为什么做出正确判断的人要为大多数人的愚昧而牺牲呢?没有危机意识的人,就算你能救他一时,又能救得了他一世么?"
    于是,当试卷发下来之后,我的这道题目理所当然的得了零分,那血红的"0"字迹很深,险些划破卷纸,足见老师是何等愤怒:无知小儿岂可出此妄言?孺子不可教也!从此往后,我被老师视为异类,其对我如此之厌恶以至于将我从前排座位调整到了教室角落,不管当时矮小的我在一个个大个子的身躯后面是否能看到那一小块黑板.
    是的,在大多数人眼中,识时务者为俊杰,随潮流而动永远都是大势所趋;相比之下,一个游离在潮流边缘的思想显得是如此渺小...
    是牺牲自己的个人意愿?还是牺牲大多数人眼中的公理与准则?
    毫无疑问,许多人都已经感到这辆火车正在逐步逼近,虽然缓慢,但却足以致命.
    而那决定去向的铁轨扳手,则存在于每个人的心中.如何取舍,是自己的抉择.
    如果,你问我对此的个人看法,那么我的回答永远都是一样的------一如当年的答题纸:
    无论任何时候,我都绝对不会去碰那个扳手,永远不会.

    一次大学同学做的presentation也是这个选题,当时问大家的意见。
     
    大多数人说改变到另一个人少的轨道上去,少数人说继续驾驶。
     
    事后思考,如果改变轨道对那些正确选择的孩子们太不公平了,而且也纵容了那些明知山有虎,偏向虎山行的人。
