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 dont 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.

An Unforgettable Lesson.C Friday night is a good time to have fun as the week comes to an end. But Tri-City United School in Minnesota, US, took this to a new level. The school turned Friday into Art Night. Art Night ran from 5 to 10 pm every Friday. It allowed students to get creative with paint, clay (陶土) and temporary tattoos (暂时性纹身). The members of the high school AR Team came up with the idea. Thirty-six students registered （报名） for this activity. They were divided into three groups for 75-minute sessions (授课时间) of painting, pottery (陶器) making and henna (指甲花) design, with a pizza break in between. At the end of the night, students could take their work home. Out of the three sessions, henna was the most popular. Its the art of making beautiful tattoo patterns and has been practiced for more than 5,000 years in Southeast Asia. And it has recently become more popular in the US. The art teacher Aimee Fisher traveled to India last year and learned henna. Then, she taught students how to do it at Art Night. “Im really excited to do henna,” student Sarah Colwell told Le Center Leader, a local newspaper. “Ive gotten it done on me, but I have never done it by myself.” In fact, this is just the beginning of their art journey. From March 3 to April 9, they will have their annual (每年的) student Art Show display at the Arts and Heritage Center in Montgomery. Students are in charge of (负责) the show by themselves. 66.
