I was exhausted from working my two jobs over the weekend and was not looking forward to the graduation ceremony. I knew it was going to be a long afternoon. I kept thinking of all the places I would rather be,and made up my mind that I wasn't going to enjoy myself.
It was getting harder and harder to pay attention. Finally,they began calling out the graduates' names. The classmates formed a single line and made their way up towards the po dium (讲台) .
Kim looked up at us and was trying to hold back the tears. Standing in line,about to re?ceive her diploma (毕业证) ，she was probably thinking about a number of things. Maybe her dad who passed away a few years ago and didn't get to see her reach her goal,or her grandmother who had always wanted to attend college,but her family didn't have the money ... The selfish?ness in me melted away,and I realized why I was there.
"Kimberly Anne Conway,graduating Magna Cum Laude (以优等成绩毕业) .”She walked across the stage and received this piece of paper that meant so many things.
I glanced at my wife,and saw the tears roll gently down as the love she had for her sister manifested (表明) itself on her face.
Kim is not an ordinary college graduate. She is 38 years old,and has stuck to her goal of graduating from college for the past 20 years.
She attended college while working full time,and she studied extremely hard. Many times she felt like quitting.
It takes a special person to stick with a goal as long as she has.
I love you,Kim,and I want you to know that I admire you for that symbolic piece of pa?per that will soon adorn (使光彩) a wall in your house.
In the words of Caleb,my 3-year-old; "HAPPY GRADUATION,AUNT KIMMY!"

Disney World,Florida,is the biggest amusement resort in the world. It covers
24. 4 thou?sand acres,size of Manhattan. It was opened on October 1 ,1971,five years after Walt Disney's death,and it is a larger,slightly more ambitious version of Disneyland near Los An?geles. Foreigners tend to associate Walt Disney with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,and with his other famous cartoon characters,Mickey Mouse,Donald Duck and Pluto,or with his nature films,whose superb photography is spoiled,in the opinion of some,by the vulgarity (粗俗) of the commentary and musical background.
There is very little that could be called vulgar in Disney World. It attracts people of most taste and most income groups,and people of all ages,from toddlers to grandpas. There are two expensive hotels,a golf course,and forest trails for horseback riding and rivers for canoeing. But the central attraction of the resort is the Magic Kingdom.
Between the huge parking lots and the Magic Kingdom lies a broad artificial lake. In the distance rise the towers of Cinderella's Castle,which like every other building in the Kingdom is built of solid materials. Even getting to the Magic Kingdom is quite an adventure. You have a choice of transportation. You can either cross the lake on a replica (仿制品) of a Mississippi pad?dle wheeler,or you can glide around the shore in a streamlined (流线型的) monorail (单轨) train.
When you reach the terminal,you walk straight into a little square which faces Main Street. Main Street is late 19th century. There are modern shops inside the buildings,but all the decades are of the period. There are hanging baskets fiill of red and white flowers, and there is no traffic except a horse draw streetcar and an ancient doubledecker bus. Yet as you walk through the magic Kingdom,you are actually walking on top of a network of underground roads. This is how the shops ? restaurants and all the other material needs of the Magic Kingdom are.

The past two years of John's life may be his best. Two years ago he was voted Teacher of the Year for his school where he teaches math and science to the 5th grade students. This past year he was voted Teacher of the Year for his school for the second time,and he also received the honor of Teacher of the Year for his entire district.
