The night of graduation, I was afraid. Two hundred people were sitting out there. I felt tense and I wanted to run away,  36  I couldn’t! After all, my own children were sitting in front of me with many other persons. I couldn’t be a coward(懦夫) before  37 .
When I ended the speech, I was  38  at the cheering. And I never forget the first time I received the cheering in my life.
Flowers arrived  39  my brothers and sister. My husband gave me silk roses. The reporters came with   40 and recorders and lots of questions. There were tears and hugs and congratulations.
Sometimes, I sit down and   41  the tape of my gaduation speech. I hear myself say to the audience, “Don’t’ give up your   42  in life. Anything can happen if you believe. It means hard work, but  43  sure that you can do it, with God’s help.”
And then, I remember mother’s   44  to me , a young girl: “Hurry, Gin, you’ll be late for school.”
Yes, Mom, I was late  45  school, but it was sweeter for waiting. I only wish you and Dad could have been there to see your daughter and granddaughter in all their show and speech.

The sun is shining when I get on No. 151 bus. We passengers sit jammed together in heavy clothes. No one speaks. That’s one of the unwritten rules of Chicago commuting. Although we see the same faces every day, we prefer to hide behind our newspapers. The phenomenon is striking: people who sit so close together are using those thin sheets of newsprint to keep their distance.
As the bus approaches the Magnificent Mile, a voice suddenly rings out: “Attention! Attention!” Papers rattle (发出细小声). Necks crane (伸长). “This is your driver speaking.”
We look at the back of the driver’s head. His voice has authority.
“All of you put your papers down.”
The papers come down, an inch at a time. The driver waits. The papers are folded and placed on our laps.
“Now, turn and face the person next to you. Go ahead.”
Amazingly, we all do it. Still, no one smiles.
I face an older woman, her head wrapped tightly in a red scarf. I see her nearly every day. Our eyes meet. We wait, unblinking, for the next order from the driver.
“Now, repeat after me…” It is a command, delivered in the tones of a drill sergeant (操练军士). “Good morning, neighbor!”
Our voices are weak and timid. For many of us, these are the first words we have spoken today. But we say them at the same time, like schoolchildren, to the strangers beside us.
We smile and can’t help it. We have said it; the barrier has been broken. Good morning, neighbor. It is not so hard after all. Some of us repeat it. Others shake hands. Many laugh.
The bus driver says nothing more. He doesn’t need to. Not a single newspaper goes back up. I hear laughter, a warm sound I have never heard before on bus No. 151. This day is starting off better than most.
【小题1】On hearing the sudden utterance of “Attention!”, the passengers ___________.
