The first day of school, our professor introduced an old lady Rose to us.“Why are you in college at such an age?” I asked her. She replied, “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” We became friends quickly.At the end of the term I invited Rose to make a speech to our football team. I’ll never forget what she taught us. She said, “There are some secrets of staying young and being happy. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You must have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you will die. There is a huge difference between growing old and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t need any talent or ability. To grow up, you must always find the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The people who are afraid of death are those with regrets.”At the end of the year, Rose finished her college. One week after graduation, Rose died peacefully in her sleep. We would always remember the great woman.小题1:From the passage, we can learn that Rose ________.

Answer 2

我的名字叫罗斯
我上学的第一天我的教授介绍了他自己并鼓励我们结交不认识的同学。我站起来环顾四周这时有一只手很绅士的搭在我肩膀上。我转过身看见一个个子小小的满脸皱纹的女士微笑着对着我，她看起来容光焕发。
她说，你好帅哥，我叫罗斯，我87岁了。我可以拥抱你吗?
我笑起来充满热情的回答她，当然可以了！然后她给了我一个大大的拥抱。
为什么你以不年轻了不纯真了还要上大学呢？（意思是这么老了还上学干嘛)
她开玩笑的我在这是为了找一个有钱的丈夫结婚再养几个孩子。。。
我说不要开玩笑了。我很好奇是什么驱动她让她这么大的岁数还要上大学呢？
我一直梦想着能接收大学教育而现在我正在上。她告诉我。
