【题目】 I met Rose,my new classmate,on the first day of college. To my surprise, she was already 87 years old. “Why are you in college at such a young age?” I joked. “I'm here to meet a rich man, get married, have two children, and then become old and travel.” she answered. 1

Like young students, Rose was outgoing, kind and helpful. 2 Soon, she became a superstar in our college.

At the end of the term, Rose was invited to give us a speech. I will never forget what she said to us, “There are only four secrets to staying young and achieving success.”

“First, you have to laugh and find happiness around you every day. Then you need to have a dream. 3Next, find any chance to change yourself. Finally, people shouldn't be sorry for things they didn't do.”

4 Over 2000 students went to her funeral(葬礼) to express their love to the wonderful woman.

The great woman didn't live in this world any longer, but she gave us an unforgettable lesson in life. 5Don't you think so?

Here is a story: A man sees a butterfly(蝴蝶). The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis(蛹). Feeling sorry for it, the man decides to help. He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily. Surprisingly enough, the butterfly is unable to fly. If the butterfly doesn't struggle(挣扎;奋斗) to leave the chrysalis, it can't fly! The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly. Similarly, the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make the fly.
When people are young, meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life. When we look at successful people, we see that the most successful of them are people who have had to struggle. One famous businessman, who now owns many big supermarkets, used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young. Another successful man is Dennis. His father died when he was only twenty. His father's death forced him to mature fast. He had to bring up a family of nine people. He took up the challenges and overcame them. Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives.
Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them. So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges. They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rock-climbing, camping, volunteer work and so on. However, just passing exams will not prepare a person for life. We must meet and overcome challenges. The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow. For countries to continue to become successful, it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overcome them.

This morning, we had a school trip to the Dashan Collection House, a building of two floors. It is open from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. We took the school bus and arrived at 9:00. When we entered the collection house, our eyes were caught by a collection of old photos of the town on the walls of the front hall. Those photos told us something about the history of the town. And then in the Art Room, we saw many pictures of the countryside. The colors of the flowers and trees are rich and bright. All at once, I lost myself in the beauty of nature.
Then we went upstairs. On the left, there were over one hundred different clocks. The oldest clock was already more than two hundred years old. To my surprise, the clocks all worked well and they could tell the right time. It was then ten o'clock, and some clocks produced different beautiful sounds. It seemed to be a concert. How amazing!
On the right there was also a stone collection. The stones were from all over the country. They were in different sizes, colors and shapes. Some looked like different kinds of animals. I really liked one stone that looked like a little monkey. It looked very nice.
The collections there were wonderful. So they stayed there until 11:30 in the morning. I had a great time and really liked the school trip.
(1)When did they go for the school trip?
(2)How did they go there?
(3)What did they see in the Art Room?
(4)What were the collections upstairs?
(5)How long did they stay there?
