（每题2分，共30分）AOn a beautiful Sunday morning, I was enjoying coffee happily in a café. Suddenly I felt a soft hand on my back and heard someone saying, “ Hi, John! How is everything going?” I looked back, and saw a young woman who looked familiar(熟悉的) smiling at me. But I couldn’t remember where we had met.The young woman also ordered a cup of coffee, so I asked her to join me. Very soon, her story began to become clear in my memory.Ten years earlier, it was December, and the weather was terribly cold. A beautiful girl called Katherine was travelling home late that night. A heavy snow had arrived that afternoon, and by midnight, the road was covered by deep snow. Her car was stuck in the snow just down the road from my house.She walked to my house for help. I helped her pull her car out of snow and up to the street where the snow had been cleaned away.This was a normal happening here during the winter. I couldn’t count the times someone had helped me to pull my car out of snow. However, it was a memorable experience for her. She was only eighteen at that time, and she said she was very afraid.

Asking for help is necessary when we meet difficulties.BLong ago ,there lived in Greece a learned man. He was so well known for his good knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came to learn from him. The great man taught his students whole-heartedly and answered their questions with great patience.One day a student asked him, “ My dear teacher, didn’t you say you yourself have many ,many more questions about things than we do? But I think we students have far more than you.”With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circles ,one as large as a big cake, the other smaller. Then he said , “Of course, I have learned much more. But it’s wrong to think that a teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the bigger one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is yours. Out of the circles is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger circle. That means I have more opportunities to face what is still unknown. And that’s why I myself have more questions than you do. The more you learn , the more questions you have. You will never learn enough ,you know.”()6.
