One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of 44 students in the classroom on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then she told them to think of the 45 thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down.
It 46 the class some time to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one 47 the papers. That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the 48 of each student on a separate sheet of paper and 49 what everyone else had said about that individual.
On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the whole class was 50 . “Really?” she heard whispered. “I never knew that I 51 anything to anyone!” and, “I didn’t know others liked me so much” were most of the comments. No one ever 52 those papers in class again. She never knew if they discussed them after class or with their parents, but it didn’t 53 . The exercise had completed its 54 . The students were 55 with themselves and one another.
That group of students moved on. Several years later, one of the students was 56 in Vietnam War and his teacher 57 the funeral of that special student. After the funeral, most of Mark’s former classmates left. Mark’s mother and father were there, obviously waiting to speak to his teacher.
“We want to 58 you something,” his father said, taking a 59 out of his pocket.
“They found this on Mark when he was killed. We thought you might 60 it.”
Opening the wallet, he 61 removed two worn pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped, folded, and refolded many times. The teacher knew without 62 that the papers were the ones on which she had listed all the good things each of Mark’s classmates had said about him.
“Thank you so much for doing that,” Mark’s mother said. “As you can see, Mark 63 it.”

When I entered Berkeley, I hoped to earn a scholarship. Having been a Straight-A student(优等生), I believed I could 1 tough(=hard) subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was extremely interested in the ideas he 2 in class.
When I took the first exam, I was 3 to find a 77, C-plus, on my test paper, 4 English was my best subject. I went to reason with Professor Jayne, who listened to my arguments but remained 5 .
I decided to try harder, although I didn't know what that 6 because school had always been easy for me. I read the books more carefully, but got another 77. Again, I 7 with Professor Jayne. Again, he listened patiently but wouldn't change his 8 .
One more test before the final exam. One more 9 to improve my grade. So I redoubled my efforts(加倍努力) and, for the first time, 10 the meaning of the word "thorough"(彻底的).But my 11 did no good and everything 12 as before.
The last hurdle(障碍)was the final. No matter what 13 I got, it wouldn't cancel three C-pluses. I might as well kiss the 14 goodbye.
I stopped working hard. I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would. The night before the final, I even 15 myself to a movie. The next day I decided for once I'd have 16 with a test.
A week later, I was surprised to find I got an A. I hurried into Professor Jayne's office. He 17 to be expecting me. "If I gave you the As you 18 , you wouldn't continue to work as hard."
I stared at him, 19 that his analysis and strategy(策略)were correct. I had worked my head 20 , as I had never done before.
I was speechless when my course grade arrived: A-plus. It was the only A-plus given. The next year I received my scholarship. I've always remembered Professor Jayne's lesson: you alone must set your own standard of excellence.
