I remember the exact moment I learned the principle of preparing for luck.

I was on the wrestling team. Now, if there’s one thing I can tell you about any sport, it is that wrestling is probably the sport that has the least   31   .There are only two people out on the mat, so you cannot   32   it on your teammates or your coach. And guess what? There is no   33     because we do the whole thing indoors, so you can’t say, “It was raining” or “It was snowing.” It makes   34  to say wrestling is the sport with the least luck.

On our team were two world champions; one of them had been a world champion five times. We   35   had five people who were national champions. One of them was a guy   36   the name of John.

John had never been   37   in any high school wrestling competition that I could remember, 38   he was a national champion. There was nobody locally who could touch him.

One day, we   39   a match with our biggest opponent (对手). John went out on the mat, and about a minute and 30 seconds into the match he tried to make a particular   40   He rolled over, and his opponent  41   him halfway through his roll. He was pinned (压住) 42  !

The match was over.

I remember on the way home, one of our teammates tried to  43   John by saying, “Oh, he just got lucky.” John said, “That’s so stupid. The 44   presented itself, and he just took advantage of it.”

We used to have this big   45   in our wrestling room that the coach had put there: “Luck is what happens when opportunity meets   46  .”

John’s opponent was prepared to make use of this opportunity. The possibility of beating John was not   47   and he knew it. But he waited for the  48   opportunity to present itself, and he defeated and pinned a five-time national champion.

In other words, the real  49   is “Be prepared!” It’s not just finding the opportunity; you have to be prepared to   50   it.

第二节　　　　

认真阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从36—55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points. He was ___36___ and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the grade in my ___37___. His beaming (欢笑的) face turned to shock. “You’re 　38 my grade?” he said angrily. “I would never have come in ___39___ ……”

He didn’t finish the ___40___, but it was obvious that his display of honesty was ___41___. He thought he’d have it all—praise and the higher grade.

Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade ___42___ because all I’d accomplished was to discourage him from being ___43___ in the future. And every time I tell this story, some people agree with this ___44___.

　 But I can’t see how I could give good reason for worsening my ___45___ in grading by undermining (损害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to ___46___ an error. The grade itself would be a dishonest ___47___ of his knowledge and it would have been ___48___to other students. How could I ___49___ give a student a gift of an unearned grade?

　 I know ___50___ reporting an error in one’s favor is unusual, but, like ___51___ too much change, it’s clearly the right thing to do. People of character, those with real honesty, hate to give up ___52___ as much as anyone else. The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is ___53___enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.

　 Perhaps lowering the student’s grade did ___54___ him from being honest in the future, but bribing (贿赂) him to be honest so that he does the right thing when it’s cost-free would have ___55___him even more. The duty to be honest is about right and wrong, not risks and rewards.
