But it was not a valuable book, and a poor man got it. The book wasn39。t very interesting, but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed. It was a thin strip of vellum（羊皮紙）on which was written the secret of the Touchstone. The touchstone was a small pebble（鵝卵石）that could turn any mon metal into pure gold. The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this. The real stone would feel warn, while ordinary pebbles are cold. So the man sold his house, bought a tent, camped on the seashore, and began testing pebbles. He knew that if he picked up normal pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold, he might pick up the same pebbles 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. Yet he went on and on this way. Pick up a pebble. Cold—throw it into sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. The days stretched into months and the months into years. One day, however, about midafternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done. He was used to throwing each pebble into the sea as soon as he picked it up. So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away. So it is with opportunity（機(jī)會）. Unless we are vigilant, it39。s easy to fail to realize an opportunity when it is in hand and it39。s just as easy to throw it away.（1）According to the passage, the touchstone is a stone __________.

However, my family is very big on having a traditional career （職業(yè)） and so when I said that I wanted to go to college and study writing, my parents told me that I couldn39。t. They told me that I had to study for a degree so that I would achieve a career, and not something as risky as writing. I suppose I could have studied joumalism （新聞） ,b
