Now, the professor gave the test papers to all students with text facing down on the desk. Once he was done with handing out the test to all students, he asked them to turn the test pages and begin.Students were confused to see that there was not a question but just a black dot in the center of the page. The professor noticed the students facial expressions and told them, “I want you to write about what you see there.”The students were still confused but got started with the test. At the end of the class, the professor took all answer sheets and started reading each answer from each sheet in front of all students. All of them described about the black dot and tried to explain its position. After the professor finished reading, the whole class was silent.Now, the professor began to explain, “Dont worry. I am not going to give you grades for this but I just want you to think about something. Here everyone focused on the black dot and wrote about it but no one wrote about the white paper. The same is with our lives. The white paper embodies our whole life and the black spot problems in our life.Our life is a gift given to us by God, with love and care, and we always have reasons to celebrate-our friends around us, the job that provides us our livelihood, the miracles we see everyday. Still we just focus on day to day problems like health issues, lack of money, problems in relationships, etc. But we never see that these problems are very small compared to everything we have in our lives.”1、From the text we learn that _.Athe professor gave the students an unexpected testBthe professor graded the students test papersCnone of the students focused on the black dotDthe students were unwilling to take the test2、The underlined word “embodies” in Paragraph 4 probably can be replaced by _.Apresen
