The Story of Philosophy《哲学的故事》第1章Plato第7节VI. The Psychological Solution第10段第7句：

For we are likely to have trouble with these children of ours if we undertake to explain and justify everything to their simple minds. We shall have an especially hard time when they arrive at the age of twenty, and face the first scrutiny and test of what they have learned in all their years of equal education. Then will come a ruthless weeding out; the Great Elimination, we might cal lit. That test will be no mere academic examination; it will be practical as well as theoretical: "there shall also be toils and pains and conflicts prescribed for them"(413). Every kind of ability will have chance to show itself, and every sort of stupidity will be hunted out into the light. Those who fail will be assigned to the economic work of the nation; they will be business men, and clerks, and factory workers, and farmers. The test will be impartial and impersonal; whether one is to be a farmer or a philosopher will be determined not by monopolized opportunity or nepotic favoritism; the selection will be more democratic than democracy.
浙江大学译本：假如对我们这些头脑简单的孩子解释并证实一切，我们很可能会陷人麻烦。当他们迈入二十岁，他们所受的平等教育第一次面临审视和考核之时，我们将遭遇一个极大的难关。接着，无情的淘汰便会到来；我们姑目称之为“大筛选”。这次考试绝不仅仅是学术测验，而是涵盖了理论和实践知识，“他们会经受一些挫折、苦痛和冲突”（第413节）。在这样的考试中，任何一种才华都会得以展现，任何一类蠢笨都会暴露无遗。落选者将被分配从事国家的经济工作，他们将成为商人、管理员、工人、农民。考试是公正无私的，因为一个人成为农民或是哲学家不再由垄断机会或裙带关系决定；这样的选择比民主制更民主。

解析

1、The test will be impartial and impersonal;
这次考试将公正客观的；
impersonal: having or showing no interest in individual people or their feelings客观的
We like to imagine technology as a kind of superego: rational, impersonal, decisive.我们喜欢将技术想象成一种超我：理性、客观和果断。《纽约时报》
2、whether one is to be a farmer or a philosopher will be determined not by monopolized opportunity or nepotic favoritism;
无人因垄断机会或裙带关系成为农民或哲学家；
nepotic: holding or pertaining to the position of a nephew 裙带关系
3、the selection will be more democratic than democracy.
这种选拔比民主制的民主还民主。

这句定位了“大淘汰”的公正性。这种选拔远比通过民主投票而进行选拔民主，响应了前面对民主投票的批判。

这次考试将公正客观的；无人因垄断机会或裙带关系而成为农民或哲学家；这种选拔比民主制的民主还民主。
