B. Read the passage and choose the best answers. 阅读短文,选择最佳答案。
One day a teacher and his student lay down under a big tree near the big grass area. Then the student suddenly asked the teacher, “Teacher, I wonder how I can find my good friend. Could you please help me?”
Saying nothing for a few seconds, the teacher then answered, “Well, it’s a pretty hard and an easy question.”
“Look that way. There is a lot of grass. Why don’t you walk there? Please don’t walk backwards, and just walk straight ahead. On your way, try to find a blade (叶片) of beautiful grass and pick it up and then give it to me, but just one.”
The student said, “Well, OK ... then ... Wait for me ...” and walked straight ahead to the grassy field.
A few minutes later the student came back.
The teacher asked, “Well, I don’t see a beautiful blade of grass in your hand.”
“On my way, I found quite a few blades of beautiful grass, but I thought that I would find a better one, so I didn’t pick them. But I didn’t know that I was at the end of the field, and I hadn’t picked any because you told me not to go back, so I didn’t go back.”
The teacher said, “That’s what will happen in real life. Grass is the people around you, and the blade of beautiful grass is the people that attract you and the grassy field is time. In looking for your soulmate, please don’t always compare and hope that there will be a better one. By doing that, you’ll waste your lifetime. Please remember ‘Time Never Goes Back’.”
