Looking out, we found an old
woman appeared at
the door. She said. “Hi, my name is Susan. I am
seventy years old.” While we
were wondering
what made her take this challenge (挑战) at her age.
She said with a smile. “I’m

rich husband, get married, have two children and
travel tighter.” Hearing this, all
of us
laughed. “In fact,” she went on. “I always __1___
of having a college education, and now I’m
getting one!”
After class we had chocolate
and milk together. We became good friends. I often
listened to

invited
Susan to give us a __2___. When she
was stepping up to the podium(讲台), suddenly she
