22、The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being.
She said, “Hi, girl! My name is Rose. I’m 87 years old. Can give you a hug?”
I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a giant squeeze.
“Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?” I asked. She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of children, and hen retire and travel!”
“No seriously.” I said. I was curious about what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.
“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.
Over the course of the year, Rose because a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students. She was living it up.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I’ll never forget what she taught us.
“We do not stop playing because we are old”; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only two secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor everyday. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die!” she said.
“The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change.” Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.”
She concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Song of Rose.” She challenged each of us study the lyrics(歌词) and live them out in our daily lives.

23、Exploring work possibilities is quite an emotional challenge for people. The desire to simplify the process by focusing on one attractive option, instead of keeping your eyes open for even more possibilities to add to your list, can be very strong. Naturally, we’d rather make a decision and get on with our lives. 【1】 However, putting off a decision until after you have done your detective work can pay off in ways you can’t even imagine now. So, learn to explore work possibilities as though it was a treasure hunt.
Uncertainty is not the only challenge holding you back. 【2】 You may be unwilling to ask strangers about their work or to ask your colleagues for help because you fear rejection. Or, you may fear failure. Don’t let these fears block your search. Remember that one definition of success is “doing your very best to realize your dreams”.【3】
There are three ways to learn about work possibilities that you already know exist and to discover more possibilities.
The easiest and quickest way is to read career information materials available on the Internet, in newspapers and magazines.
Talk to people who are knowledgeable about the work. 【4】 Spend your time with people as constructively as possible by asking about the local situation or other things not covered in print materials.
The best way to learn about the work is to “try it on for size” by getting some related experience.
【5】 That greatly increases your ability to “mix and match” information later on to discover, or even create, work possibilities that would be ideal for you.
A．Identify your own ability.
B．Explore as many options as possible.
C．They can give you an “insider’s opinion”.
D．We wouldn’t like to live with uncertainty.
E．The only way you can fail is to do nothing.
F．The following is what you should do to explore work possibilities.
G．Fear is most likely the biggest emotional challenge to successful career building.

26、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
You may know that vitamin C is important to your body，but do you know that vitamin D is important to your body as well? Vitamin D has a significant role in calcium homeostasis(钙稳态) and metabolism(新陈代谢). It is sometimes called the “sunshine vitamin” because it’s produced in your skin in response to sunlight.
Vitamin D can help bones and muscles grow strong and healthy. If a person is short of vitamin D，he or she may have problems like rickets(佝偻病) and osteoporosis．Rickets is mainly found in children. Osteoporosis，the thinning of bone，is a common problem as people get older. Studies in these years have found that vitamin D may also have other uses. If someone is short of vitamin D, he may have heart problems or die from some cancers.
The easiest way to get vitamin D is from sunlight. But many people worry about getting skin cancer and skin damage from the sun. Also, even skin color has an influence. Darker skinned people get less vitamin D than lighter skinned people. Older people get less vitamin D than younger people. You can also get it from foods. Some food such as cheese and egg yolks (蛋黄) have some vitamin D．But most of vitamin D in the American diet comes from food like milk with the vitamin added.
Now more doctors are testing for vitamin D in their patients. However, some doctors worry that if people take too much vitamin D, it might be bad for their body. At the same time, skin doctors tell people to be careful with strong sunlight.
