Each person has a different path. As you travel along your life path, you will be faced with many lessons that you will need to learn in order to realize your goal. These lessons are specific. As you travel through your lifetime, you will meet challenge lessons that others don’t have to face, while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’ t need to deal with. You cannot be sure why you struggle hard for money while your friends enjoymuch wealth. You must remember that you will be faced with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn, whether you choose to learn them or not.

When the great library of Alexandria was burned, the story goes, one book was saved. It was not a valuable book, and so a poor man bought it for a few copper coins (铜钱). Between its pages there was something very interesting. It was a thin paper on which was written the secret of the touchstone!
The touchstone was a small pebble (卵石) that could turn any common metal into gold. The writing explained that it was among thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this: the real stone would feel warm, while ordinary pebbles were cold.
So the man camped on the seashore and began testing pebbles. He thought that if he picked up ordinary pebbles and put them down again, he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea.
He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone.
The days became weeks and the weeks into months. One day, however, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done. He had formed such a strong habit of throwing each pebble into the sea. So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away.
So it is with opportunity. Unless we are careful, it’s easy to fail to recognize an opportunity when it is at hand. And it’s just as easy to throw it away.

A. it was very cheap B. it was of great value

C. is magic D. is pure gold
3.The man threw pebbles into the sea _____.

C. to avoid picking up the same pebble D. to express his disappointment
4.What message does the story want to tell us?
A. Careful habits can lead to success. B. Habits can benefit you but also hold you back.
C. Never judge a person or a thing by appearance. D. Opportunity only visits the ready and watchful mind.
