 dunce /ˈdʌn(t)s/
 劣學生,傻瓜

 Dunce n.  One backward in book learning; a child or other person dull or weak in intellect; a dullard; a dolt.
    I never knew this town without dunces of figure.   --Swift.
 Note: ☞ The schoolmen were often called, after their great leader Duns Scotus, Dunsmen or Duncemen. In the revival of learning they were violently opposed to classical studies; hence, the name of Dunce was applied with scorn and contempt to an opposer of learning, or to one slow at learning, a dullard.
