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 asked. " I’m here to meet a rich man, become his wife, have two children, and retire(退休),then travel”. She answered. 1.Like young students, Rose was outgoing, kind and helpful, 2.

“First, you have to laugh and find humor(幽默)every day. Then,you need to have a dream. 3. Next, find any chance(機會)to change yourself. Finally, people shouldn’t have regrets(遺憾) for things they didn’t do. ”

4. Over 2000 students went to her funeral(葬禮) to show 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 -- 5. Don’t you think so?

A. Never too old to learn.

B. She never talked with us.

C. When you lose your dream, you die.

D. She always had friends around her.

E. I wondered why she liked studying so much.

G. One week after she finished her college, she died in her sleep quietly.
