Unit1 A篇学无止境故事发生在一所东部大学里。
那是终考的最后一天。
一幢教学楼的台阶上围着一群大四的工科生,都在谈论即刻就要开始的考试。
他们脸上都带着自信。
这是毕业前的最后一场考试了,考完后,即是毕业典礼。
然后他们将各奔前程。
话题转到了工作上,有的谈起了找好的工作,有的则谈论着要找的工作。
4年的大学学习给了他们自信,使他们觉得自己足以征服世界。
眼前这场考试,不过是一碟小菜罢了。
老师已经说过可以携带所需的任何书本或笔记,只要不在考试时交头接耳就行了。
学生们兴高采烈地步入教室。
试卷发下来了。
看到只有5道论述题,他们一个个脸笑上开了花。
3小时过去后,老师开始收卷。
学生们先前的那份自信再也看不到了,而是满脸惊慌。
老师握着试卷,面对全班,大家都沉默不语。
她扫了一眼眼前这一张张不安的脸,问道:"5道题全答完的有多少?" 没人举手。
"做完4道的有多少?" 还是没人举手。
"3道呢?两道呢?" 学生们再也坐不住了。
"那么一道呢?总有做完一道的吧。
" 教室里依然鸦雀无声。
老师搁下试卷,说道:"这我早料到了。
""我只是想让你们牢牢记住,即使你们已经完成了4年工科学习,这个领域你们还有很多东西要学。
其实,你们答不出的这些问题在日常生活中很常见。
"她笑了笑,接着说,"这门课你们都能通过,但要记住,你们虽然已经大学毕业,但学习才刚刚开始。
"多年后,我已忘了这位老师的姓名,但牢牢记住了她的教诲。
B篇回眸大学4年的时光已经过去,这一刻终于来临了。
不到两周,我就要毕业了。
此刻回想起来,我仍不敢相信时光飞逝如斯。
我依然记得第一天去上课时的情景,我一边望着课表背面的地图,一边打听教学楼在哪儿。
现在我已是大四的学生,常会以羡慕的眼光看着一年级的新生。
每天我都祈愿时间会凝滞,接下来的两周过得更慢一些。
