13.The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know.I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I turned around to find a wrinkled,little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being.
She said,"Hi,girl!My name is Rose.I'm 87years old.Can I give you a hug?"
I laughed and enthusiastically responded,"Of course you may!"and she gave me a giant squeeze.
"Why are you in college at such a young,innocent age?"I asked.She jokingly replied,"I'm here to meet a rich husband,get married,have a couple of children,and then retire and travel!"
"No seriously."I said.I was curious about what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.
"I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!"she told me.
Over the course of the year,Rose became a campus icon(偶像) and she easily made friends wherever she went.She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students.She was living it up.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet.I'll never forget what she taught us.
"We do not stop playing because e are old; we grow old because we stop playing.There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up.Anybody can grow older.That doesn't take any talent or ability.The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change.Have no regrets.The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did,but rather for things we did not do.The only people who fear death are those with regrets."
She concluded her speech by courageously singing"The Song of Rose."She challenged each of us study the lyrics(歌詞) and live them out in our daily lives.
At the year's end,Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago.One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.

42.Rose made herself known to the author in aD manner.
A.serious           B.cold        C.crazy           D.humorous
43.From the information provided in the passage,we knowC.
A.Rose finished the college degree within a year
B.Rose did realize her dream of meeting a rich husband and getting married through college education
C.Rose enjoyed her campus life very much
D.Rose grew so old that she stopped playing
44.According to her speech,B.
A.whenever you have a dream,you succeed
B.All people don't grow up while growing older
C.Rose usually regretted having done something
D.a(chǎn) nine-year-old is as old as a 87-year-old if he doesn't do anything
45.The best title for the passage can beA.
A.Growing Older or Growing Up?
B.It's Never too Old to learn
C.Humour Does Count
D.Challenge Yourself.
