The first day of school we were interested to get to know a new classmate.I looked around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I found a little old lady with a warm smile. She said,“Hi ! I’m Rose.I’m 87 years old.Can I give you a hug?”I laughed and I heartily responded,“Of course!” “Why are you in college at such a young,innocent(天真无邪的)age?”I asked. She jokingly replied,“I’m here to meet a rich husband,get married,have children, and then travel around.” “Not seriously,”I asked.I was curious why she took on this challenge at this age. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!”she told me.We became instant friends.

At the end of the semester,we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet.
