問題詳情:
When I began my first year in Cambridge, I hoped to earn a scholarship. Having been a Straight-A student, I believed I could 41 tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was extremely interested in the ideas he 42 in class.
When I took the first exam, I was 43 to find a 77, C-plus, on my test paper, 44 English was my best subject. I went to Professor Jayne, who listened to my arguments but remained 45 .
I decided to try harder, although I didn’t know what that 46 because school had always been easy for me. I read the books more carefully, but got another 77. Again, I 47 with Professor Jayne. Again, he listened patiently but wouldn’t change his 48 .
One more test before the final exam. One more 49 to improve my grade. So I redoubled my efforts and, for the first time, 50 the meaning of the word “thorough”. But my 44 did no good and everything 52 as before.
The last hurdle was the final. No matter what 53 I got, it wouldn’t cancel three C-pluses. I might as well kiss the 54 goodbye.
I stopped working hard. I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would. The night before the final, I even 55 myself to a movie. The next day I decided for once I’d have 56 with a test.
A week later, I was surprised to find I got an A. I hurried into professor Jayne’s office. He 57 to be expecting me. “If I gave you the As you 58 , you wouldn’t continue to work as hard.”
I stared at him, 59 that his analysis and strategy were correct. I had worked my head 60 , as I had never done before.
I was speechless when my course grade arrived: A-plus. It was the only A-plus given. The next year I received my scholarship. I’ve always remembered Professor Jayne’s lesson: you alone must set your own standard of excellence.
