高三英语阅读训练（十六） Recently I paid a visit to Harvard I was pretty 36 when I first stepped onto the campus. Well, its not even really a campus. Its 37 like a district in a small town. Harvards main buildings are from the 18th century, They look very old and 38 . You might 39 say theyre a little shabby. They dont fit the modern 40 of university at all. The buildings are surrounded by 41 and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into a medieval (connected with the Mid-Ages) castle. But when I looked across the street, 42 shops and in-fashion students made me feel like I was in the 21st century 43 . It creates a strong contrast (对比) and brings a special 44 to the school. Our tour 45 Gary took us around and told us. You see this grass field in the center of the school? Here is where they hold their 46 ceremony. They just set up tents and benches (a long seat for two or more people, especially outdoors) and have a very simple ceremony. Its 47 ! Who would think the most talented students just graduate on the grass? I 48 some students put a blanket on the grass and lie down to read a book. When I listened to the soft sound of 49 turning, along with chirping of the birds, I felt very 50 . There was no competitive feeling at all. Harvard has the worlds first computer in its science centre 51 there are hundreds of high-end (高端的) computers, too. Its religion and the literature departments are also 52 the best. It is the perfect mix of tradition and 53 technology. It makes Harvard a very attractive place to 54 in I hope one day Ill 55 my dream school -- Harvard. 36.
