Unit 1 Women of achievement
Ⅰ.阅读理解
When I was six, my mother placed me in a boarding home. For the next nine years, I never slept in a room that contained less than 30 other kids in it. So, when I was promoted to senior at the home’s high school for my final year there, I had the greatest pleasure of rooming with just one other classmate, and the added feature of a semi-private bathroom.
We seniors also had the privilege of walking around the campus in special hats, we called senior bonnets, so all the other kids would know we were the highest in the high school. As seniors, we frequently went on field trips outside the campus, including city museums, city hall, courts, colleges, sports events and theaters. The highlight was a senior class trip to Washington, D.C., where we sat in on a session of Congress, visited the Smithsonian and visited many other government sites around the city.
Another benefit of being seniors was that many of us on athletic and other extra-curricular teams were elected to high rankings for the year. I had the honor and pleasure of being chose captain of our state championship swim team, while my roommate was voted president of the dramatic club.
Graduation services were on a sunny day in June. Each of us had looked forward to this moment for ten years, from first grade through our senior year. Now we were going out on our own to complete freedom, and we should have been flooded with joy. However, to my surprise, I found myself crying, something I hadn’t done for years. I noticed many of my classmates, also usually proud of their macho guy (大男子气概) attitudes, were also wiping away tears. We knew we would never be together again as we were on that graduation day. Our senior year ended with deep feelings of sadness for our loss, as well as joy for our emerging into a new world beyond the school campus.
