As far back as 700 B. C, man has talked about children being cared for by wolves. Romulus and Remus, the legendary（传说的）twin founders of Rome, were said to have been cared for by wolves. It is believed that when a she-wolf loses her litter, she tries to get human child to take its place. This seemingly foolish and unreasonable idea did not become believable until the late nineteenth century when a French doctor actually found a ten-year-old boy having nothing on wandering in the woods. He didn’t walk upright, could not speak understandably, nor could he relate to people. He only growled（嗥叫）and stared at them. Finally the doctor won the boy’s confidence and began to work with him.

The last day of the final examination arrived. In a large eastern university, on the steps of one building, a group of students were talking about the exam that was going to begin in a few 26. On their faces was confidence. This was their 27 exam—then on to graduation and jobs.

　　Some talked of jobs they already had, others talked of jobs they 28 get. With the certainty of four years of college, they felt 29 and able to take control of the world.

　　The coming exam, they knew, would be a(n) 30 task, as the professor had said they could bring 31books or notes they wanted, requesting only that they did not 32 each other during the test.

　　33 they entered the classroom. The professor handed out the papers. And smiles 34 on the students’ faces as they found there were only five questions.

　　Three hours had passed 35 the professor began to collect papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was a frightened expression. Papers in hand, no one spoke as the professor faced the class.

　　He looked at the 36 faces before him, and then asked, “How many completed all five questions?” 37 a hand was raised.

　　“How many answered four?” Still no hand.

　　“Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly in their seats.

　　“One, then? Certainly somebody finished 38 .”But the class remained silent.

　　The professor put down the papers. “That is exactly what I 39 ,” he said. “I just want you to know that, although you have completed four years of study, there are 40 many things about the 41 you don’t know. These questions you could not answer are relatively common in 42 practice.” Then, smiling, he added, “You will all 43 this course, but remember—even though you are now college graduates, your education had just 44 .”

The years have weakened the name of the professor, but not the 45 he taught.
