The teacher stood before his class and was going to
hand out the final exam papers. “I know how 1 you
have worked to prepare for this test,” he said. “And because I know you can do
it well, I am willing to offer a B to those who 2 not
to take the test.”
Many students thanked the teacher and left. The
teacher looked at the students left and said, “Does anyone else want to get a
‘B’? This is your last 3 .” Two more students decided
to go.
Only seven students were still in the classroom. The
teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the
paper: Congratulations! You have just 4 an ‘A’ in
this class. Keep believing in 5 .
I never had a teacher like that, but I think it is a
test that any teacher could give. Students who are not 6 in
what they have learned are ‘B’ students at most.
The same is 7 in our
daily life. The ‘A’ students are those who believe in what they are doing
because they have 8 both successes and failures.
They have got life’s lessons, not only from normal education, but from events
in their 9 , and have become 10 people.
You see, one should always believe in himself.
