     It was the last day of the final examination in a college. On the steps of building, a group of engineering

students were waiting for the last exam. On their faces was confidence.

     They knew the exam would be easy. The professor (a teacher at a college) had said they could bring any

books or notes during the test.

     Right after they came into the classroom. The professor handed out the papers. There were only five

questions on it.

     Three hours passed. Then the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked

confident. On their faces was nervous expression. The professor watched the worried faces before him, and

then asked, "How many of you have completed all five questions?" No hand was raised. "How many of you

have answered four?" Still no hands."Three? Two?" The students moved restlessly in their seats. "One, then?

Certainly somebody has finished one." But the class kept silent. The professor said,"That is exactly what I

expected. I just want to make you know clearly that even though you have completed four years of engineering.

There are still many things about the subject you don't know. These questions you could not answer are

common in everyday practice." Then, smiling, he added, "You will all pass this course, your education has just

begun."

     The years have obscured the name of this professor, but not the lesson he taught.

A. Because it was their last exam in the college.

     Five people are at our table, including myself. I've already learnt a great deal about them in the short

time we've been at sea,although we rarely meet except at mealtimes.

      First of all, there's Dr Stone. He's a man of about sixty-five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He

gave up his work a short while ago and is now traveling round the world before he retires to some quiet

country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the army and visited many

countries. He's told us a great deal about the city to which we are going.

     Then there's "Grandmother".  I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a

grandmother, she looks remarkably young, not more than fifty. She's on her way to visit a daughter who

went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again,  and

her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen.

     Then there's a man I don't care for very much, an engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on

leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore.

     The other person who sits at our table is Mrs Hunt. I've found out hardly anything about her. She's

extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult the doctor about children's various illnesses.She's on

her way to join her husband in India.
