  Last week Fred had to go to New York.It was his first time there,and he didn't know his way around the city.He had a meeting at 10 o'clock,and he wanted to be on time.The meeting was in the Peterson Building on 34th Street,but Fred didn't know where that was.Seeing two men standing on a corner,he asked them.

  “Excuse me,”he said,“but can you tell me how to get to the Peterson Building on 34th Street?”

  “Sure,”answered one of them.“You can get there in five minutes.Go to the next corner and turn left.Walk three blocks(街区)and there you are.”

  But the other man said,“There's a better way.Go on the bus here at the corner.It stops right near the Peters Building.”

  “Not Peters,”Fred told him,“Peterson.”

  Then the first man said,“On,that's on East 34th Street,not West 34th.It's quite a distance(距离)from here.You will have to take the subway(地铁).”

  But the second man told Fred,“No,don't go by subway.Take the cross town bus.It goes to the Peterkin Building.”

  “Peterson.Not Peterkin,”Fred looked at his watch.It was almost ten o'clock.“Thanks a lot,”he said.“I think I'll take a taxi.”

  When he got into the taxi,he saw the two men arguing(争论)and pointing in different directions(方向).Next time he wanted to know how to get to a place,he'd better ask a policeman!

  It was the last day of the final examination in a college. On the steps of building, a group of engineering students were waiting for the last exam. On their faces was confidence.

  They knew the exam would be easy. The professor had said they could bring any books or notes during the test.

  Right after they came into the classroom. The professor handed out the papers. There were only five questions on it.

  Three hours passed. Then the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was nervous expression. The professor watched the worried faces before him, and then asked. “How many of you have completed all five questions?” No hand was raised. “How many of you have answered four?” Still no hands. “Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly in their seats. “One, then? Certainly somebody has finished one.” But the class kept silent(沉默). The professor said, “That is exactly what I expected. I just want to make you know clearly that even though you have completed four years of engineering, there are still many things about the subject you don’t know. These questions you could not answer are common in everyday practice.” Then, smiling, he added, “You will all pass this course, your education has just begun.”

The years have obscured the name of this professor, but not the lesson he taught.
