Miss. Evans was going to give a lecture(讲座)on Friday afternoon. But on

the boy and his llama walked many miles, looking for a home. Each night they curled

buried(埋葬)his friend next to a small icy river. Then he sat under a tree and

Suddenly, the sky filled with bright light. The boy held his breath(屏息).
He was afraid to move. One bright star fell to the ground. Slowly, the star took

fell. As the sun began to rise, the boy picked up the soft, warm wool. It gave out
light in his hands like starlight. He carried the wool to the city and sold it.

There once lived in Greece a learned man. He was so well-known for his wide
knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came
to learn things from him. The great man taught his students whole-heartedly and
answered their questions with great patience(耐心).
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? On the contrary (恰恰
相反), we students have far more than you.”
With a smile, the teacher drew two circles-one as large as a big wheel(轮
子), the other smaller.
“Of course, I’ve learned much more. But a teacher does not necessarily have
fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. Within the big
one is my knowledge of things, and within the smaller one yours. Out of the circles
is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, the line that marks out(划
出……的界线)the circle is longer. That means I have more chances 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.”

A. the teacher should have so many questions
