Unit1 What we wish  我们的期望 My dear child, 我亲爱的孩子： You are about to participate in the next leg of yourjourney through life. For us, this part is bittersweet.As you go off to college, exciting new worlds willop en up to you. They will inspire and challenge you; you will grow in e ways.  incredibl 你即将踏上人生的下一段旅程。 这让我们感到喜忧参半。 当你离家、步入大学的校门， 激动人心的崭新世界将会展现在你面前。 这将带给你鼓舞， 也会使你面临挑战； 你将获得更大的进步与成长。 This is also a moment of sadness. Your departure to college makes it  unden iably clear thatyou are no longer a child. There has been no greater joy than watching you arrive at thismoment. You have turned our greatest  challenge  i nto our greatest pride . Although we havebrought you to this point, it is hard to watch you depart . Remember above all things, we willmiss you. 这也是令人伤感的时刻。 离家去上大学就明确意味着你不再是个孩子了。 没有什么比看到你走到今天这一步更令我们欣喜的了。 你曾经是我们最大的挑战， 现在却成为我们最大的骄傲。虽然是我们把你带到了这一步， 但是看着你离开仍然很不舍。 记住，最主要的是， 我们会想念你。 College will be the most important time of your life. It is here that you will tru ly discover whatlearning is about. You often ask, Why do I need to know this? I encourage you to stay inquisitive , but reme mber this: Education is what remains after one has forgotten everythinghe learned in sc hool. What you learn is not as important as the fact that you learn. This is th eheart of scholarship: moving from teacher-taught to master- inspired , on ov er to the pointwhere you become a self-learner. So, take each subject serious ly, and if something doesntimmediately engage you, dont despair . Embrac e it as a challenge . Find a way to make it yourown. 大学将是你人生中最重要的时光。只有在大学里你才会真正发现学习的真谛。你经常会问： “为什么我需要知道这个 ? ”我希望你保持好奇心， 但是记住： “教育就是当一个人忘记了在学校所学的一切之后剩下的东西。 ”你学什么并不如学习本身更重要。做学问的精髓就在于它可以使你从被动学习转向主动学习 —— 直至成为一个真正具有学习能动力的自学者。所以，要认真对待每一门课程。 如果某门课不能马上吸引你， 不要绝望。 把它当作一个挑战来接受它，设法使之成为你自己所喜欢的。 Of course, you must still take care to sign up for courses which  stimulate  yo ur  passion  andyour  intellectual  capacity  .Dont be bound by what other peo ple think. 当然， 你还必须注意，要选择那些能够激发你的热情、拓展你的智力
