C 阅读短文，根据短文内容选择最佳选项。

A professor stood before his class with some things on the table in front of him. When the class began, he took a very large and empty bottle and started to put some big stones in it.

He then asked the students if the bottle was full. They said that it was. The professor then picked up a box of small stones and poured them into the bottle. He shook（晃动） the bottle lightly. The small stones, of course, rolled（滚动） into the open areas（空间） between the big stones. He then asked the students again if the bottle was full. They agreed it was.

The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the bottle. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.

“Now,” said the professor, “I want you to know that this bottle is like your life. The big stones are the important things，like your family, your health and your children. The small stones are the other things that matter（重要）– like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else – the small things. If you put the sand into the bottle first, there is no room for the stones. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy（精力） on the small things, you will never have time for the things that are important to you. Take care of the big stones first – the things that really matter.”

66. The professor filled an empty bottle with big stones to ________.

B. Father and his two sons D. Sharing love
