The first day of school we were surprised to know a new classmate. I  1  around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I found a little  2  lady with a warm smile.

She said, “Hi! I’m 87 years old. Can I give you a hug? ” I laughed and heartily   3  , “Of course!”

“Why are you in college at such a young, innocent (天真的)age?” I asked.

She replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married,    4  children, and then travel around.”
