     It was the last day of final examinations at a large college. On the steps of one building, a group of
engineering students were discussing the exam that was about to begin. On their faces was confidence.
This was their last exam before they graduated (毕业) and found jobs.
     Some talked of jobs they already had; others of jobs they would get. With four years of college study,
they felt ready and able to conquer (征服) the world.
     The coming exam, they knew, would be easy. The professor (教授) had said they could bring any
books or notes they wanted, but they couldn't talk to each other during the test.
     They walked into the classroom. The professor passed out the papers. The students' smiles became
wide as they saw that there were only five essay-type questions.
     Three hours passed and the exam came to an end. Then the professor began to collect the papers.
The students no longer looked confident. They seemed worried. No one spoke as the professor faced
the class with the papers in her hand.
     She looked at all the worried faces in front of her, and then asked, "How many students completed
all five questions?"
     Not a hand was put up.
     "How many of you answered four?" Still no hands.
     "Three? Two?" The students moved restlessly in their seats.
     "One, then. Certainly somebody finished one." But the class stayed silent. The professor put down
the papers. "That is just what I expected," she said.
     "I just wanted to make sure you realize that even though you have studied engineering for four years,
there are still many things about the subject you don't know. Instead of testing you on what you learned
in this class, I've given you questions that skilled engineers face in the world outside the classroom. You
can't expect to be an expert (专家) on the day you graduate. You have to learn as you go."
     Then, smiling, she added, "You will all pass this course, but remember that your education has just
begun."
1. What does the underlined word "restlessly" mean in the passage?
A. confidently
B. proudly
C. excitedly
D. nervously
2. Why did the professor design the final exam in such a way?
A. To make the students realize that they still had much to learn after graduation.
B. To find out whether the students could put what they had learned into practice.
C. To show that she had much more knowledge than her students in engineering.
D. To examine whether the students learned what they had been taught in her class.
3. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. A Playful Joke
B. A Lucky Chance
C. A Strange Professor
D. A Special Exam

     There was once a young mouse that lived in a hole in a wall. One day, the young mouse woke up from

away, so I'm safe." The mouse ran out of the hole and started eating the cheese. He did not see the cat,

    Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January, 1942. He went to school in St Albans-a small
city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class. After leaving school, Hawking went first
to Oxford University where he studied physics, then he went to Cambridge University where he studied
cosmology. As he himself admits (承认), he didn't work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very little
work. However, he still got good marks.
    It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him. He started to bump
(撞上) into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she made him
see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neurone
disease, an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move without the help of a
machine. Doctors said they had no way to help him. He would die before he was 23.
    At first, Hawking became very sad. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he
later write, "Before my illness was diagnosed (诊断), I had been very bored with life. There bad not seemed to
be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of
worth while things I could do." Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, and had three children.
He also went on to do some of the most important scientific research.
    Today, Hawking still works at Cambridge University as a professor. He strongly believes that his story shows
that nobody, however bad their situation (处境) is, should lose hope. "Life is not fair, "he once said. "You just
have to do the best you can in your own situation."
