If you pick option one, then you are lazy.
如果你选择前者，那就说明你很懒
You can't be bothered to revise.

and you fail the exam, it is your own fault, not the teacher's, yours.
因此而没通过考试，这就是你自己的错，不是老师的错，是你自己的
So, what are you going to do?
那么，你们会怎么选呢
Revise and succeed, or don't revise and be lazy and FAIL the exam?
