没想到美国小学还有这样的算数题(图)

美国Gwinnett County, Ga.周三给三年级学生出的算术题，其中有：

每棵树有56个橙子，假如8个奴隶摘的一样多，每个奴隶摘多少？
 "Each tree had 56 oranges. If eight slaves pick them equally, then how much would each slave pick?"

假如Fred每天挨两次打，他一星期挨多少次打？
"If Frederick got two beatings per day, how many beatings did he get in one week?"

很简单的数学题，但不幸的是冒犯了很多人。不知这是否牵扯到了种族歧视，出题者怎么想的？出题者的潜意识里是否对种族歧视，暴力有认同感？美国社会中白人至上虽在表面上没被明说，但仍还扎根于许多人的心中？

I can not agree with you. The word SLAVE can not be used anymore? That is a historical fact.
