7、以征服世界。眼前這場考試，不過是一碟小菜罷了。老師已經(jīng)說過可以攜帶所需的任何書本或筆記，只要不在考試時交頭接耳就行了。學生們興高采烈地步入教室。試卷發(fā)下來了?？吹街挥?道論述題，他們一個個臉笑上開了花。3小時過去后，老師開始收卷。學生們先前的那份自信再也看不到了，而是滿臉驚慌老師握著試卷，面對全班，大家都沉默不語。她掃了一眼眼前這一張張不安的臉，問道：5道題全答完的有多少？沒人舉手。做完4道的有多少？還是沒人舉手。3道呢？兩道呢？學生們再也坐不住了。那么一道呢？總有做完一道的吧。教室里依然鴉雀無聲。老師擱下試卷，說道：這我早料到了。我只是想讓你們牢牢記住，即使你們已經(jīng)完成了4年工科學習，這個領

17、上課時的情景，我一邊望著課表背面的地圖，一邊打聽教學樓在哪兒?，F(xiàn)在我已是大四的學生，常會以羨慕的眼光看著一年級的新生。每天我都祈愿時間會凝滯，接下來的兩周過得更慢一些。許多我認識的人都迫不及待地想要畢業(yè)，我卻恰恰相反。我寧愿時光倒流，再度重溫大學生活的每一天。大學生活使我學到了許許多多，而且大都是在課外學到的。大二的生活也許是我生命中最值得留念的一段。正是這一年，我終于讓媽媽相信我住校沒有問題，她終于讓我去了。正是這一年，我結(jié)交了一些終身好友，歷經(jīng)多次的成功與失敗使我對自己有了更多的了解。大二生活還有著種種新的嘗試，到山地去野營，把信手涂鴉的詩投到報社，還在課堂上給老師畫漫畫。走在校園熟悉的路

18、上，不知不覺中就陷入了深深的反思和對往昔的回憶中。發(fā)覺自己好想從頭來過，再次體味大學生活的歡娛和激動。一想到畢業(yè)心里就一陣陣恐慌。從記事起我就一直在讀書。我覺得還有很多東西想學，可是卻不得不畢業(yè)了。世界如此之大，可能發(fā)生的事情太多太多。過去4年中，我一直被一張安全的網(wǎng)包圍著。學生這個身份總能讓人感到欣慰，使我可以躲開外面世界的無情現(xiàn)實。不到兩周就要離校了，每每想到就要畢業(yè)，我就打心眼兒里感到不安。因為我從記事起就一直是名學生。我覺得自己是在回避畢業(yè)。每當別人問起我大學畢業(yè)后打算做什么，我就想大聲尖叫，我不知道以后想做些什么。甚至不敢想像早上醒來沒有課上會是什么樣的情形。不久前，一次面試時，有人問我，這是不是你想干一輩子的工作？我覺得這個問題很可笑，還差點兒笑出聲來，不過我還是說了實話。以后的事情，我說不好-誰知道將來會是什么樣子？過去的4年中，我已多次
