A group of graduates got together to visit their old university professor.
The conversation soon       into complaints about stress in work and life. To    his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned       a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups — porcelain(瓷器), plastic, glass, crystal(水晶), some plain-looking, some expensive and some exquisite(精致的) —telling them to help      to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in their hands, the professor said, “      you have noticed, all the nice-looking or       cups have been used, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your      and stress.”
“What all of you really       is coffee, not the cups, but you went for the best cups. And then you began eyeing(审视) each other’s cups. Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the      . Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cups, we       to enjoy the coffee. Savor(品味) the coffee, not the cups! Don’t let the cups drive you. Enjoy the coffee instead.”
