     The teacher stood before his class of 30 students and was about to hand out the final exam papers. "I
know how hard you have all worked to prepare for this test," he said. "Arid because I know you are all able
to understand this material, I am ready to offer a B to anyone who would prefer not to take the test."
     A number of students jumped up to thank the teacher and left the classroom. The teacher looked at the
remaining (余下的) students and said, "Does anyone else want to get a B? This is your last chance." Two
more students decided to go. Seven students stayed. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were
only three sentences which were typed on the paper: Congratulations! You have received an A in this class.
Keep believing in yourself.
     I never had a teacher who gave a test like that, but I think that it is a test that any teacher could and
should give. Students who do not have confidence in what they have learned are B students at most.
     The same is true for students in real life. The A students are those who believe in what they are doing
because they have learned from both successes and failures. They have learned life's lessons, whether from
formal education or from even is in their lives, and have become better people. Scientists say that by the age
of eight, 80% of what we believe about ourselves has already been formed. You are a big kid now, and you
realize that you have some limits (局限). However, there is nothing you can't do or leant to be. Sir Edmund
Hillary, the first person to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma (珠穆朗玛峰) said, "We do not conquer the
mountain, but ourselves."
1. Why did some students leave the classroom?
A. Because they were happy with the mark the teacher would give them.
B. Because they were allowed to take another easier exam later on.
C. Because they knew the teacher didn't like them to take the test.
D. Because they thought the exam was too easy to be worth a try.
2. Why did the teacher give the remaining students an A? 
A. Because they answered all the questions in the exam correctly.
B. Because they had been promised an A by the teacher before.

     As the sun rose, a dewdrop (露珠) woke up.  There it sat on a leaf, catching the sunlight. Proud of its
simple beauty,  it was very happy.  Around it were other dewdrops,  some on the same leaf and some on
other leaves. The dewdrop was sure that it was the best, the most special dewdrop of them all.
     Ah, it was good to be a dewdrop.
     The  wind  blew  and  the plant began to shake,  tipping  (使倾斜)  the leaf . The  dewdrop  became
