I met Rose, my new classmate, on the first day of college. To my surprise, she was already 87 years old. "Why are you in college at such a young age?" I joked. "I'm here to meet a rich man, get married, have two children, and then retire and travel." She answered.
Like young students, Rose was outgoing, kind and helpful. Soon she became a superstar in our college.
At the end of the term, Rose was invited to give us a speech. I will never forget what she said to us, "There are only four secrets to staying young and achieving success."
"First, you have to laugh and find humor(幽默感) every day. Then, you need to have a dream. Next, find any chance to change yourself. Finally, people shouldn't have regrets(遗憾) for things they didn't do."
Over 2 000 students went to her funeral(葬礼) to express their love to the wonderful woman.
The great woman didn't live in this world any longer, but she gave us an unforgettable lesson in life. That is—Don't you think so?
A.When you lose your dream, you die. |
B.She always had friends around her. |
C.Never too old to learn. |
D.One week after she finished her college, she died in her sleep peacefully. |
E. Both of us laughed, because we knew what she said wasn't true.
F. The important thing is that you have something to express.
G. Instead, they try to hide their true feelings.

---Come in, Joan. Have you finished that report for me yet?
---Yes, Mr. Canfield, but I haven’t had time to prepare the sales figures yet, I’m afraid.
---That’s all right. 1I believe you’ve moved.
---Not yet. 2We’ve been in our present house since 1997 and it’s got too small for us now.
---Well, I hope the new place suits you better.
--- 3It’s taken us six months to find a bigger place that we like---one with a bigger garden. Since the children have grown, they need more space.
--- Well, the best of luck with the new place.
--- 4Oh, by the way, I’d like to send a copy of the report to Mr Hansen. Is that OK?
--- 5Miss Grace, our sales director, has just asked me about it in fact. They’ve already decided to accept whatever suggestions you’ve made, so they obviously trust your judgment.
--- That’s good. I’ll go and make a start on the sales figures now.
--- Ok, Joan. See you later.
A.I think so. |
B.Yes, that’s a good idea. |
