Unit 1: Fresh Start

Text A: Toward a brighter future for all

1. Good afternoon! As president of the university, I am proud to welcome you to this university. Your achievement is the triumph of years of hard work, both of your own and of your parents and teachers. Here at the university, we pledge to make your educational experience as rewarding as possible.

下午好!作为大学的校长，我非常自豪地欢迎你们来到这所大学。你们的成就，是你们多年努力的结果，也是你们的父母和老师们多年努力的结果。在这里，我们承诺将使你们的学习经历尽可能有回报。

2. In welcoming you to the university, I am reminded of my own high school graduation and the photograph my mom took of my dad alarm clock. The clock woke me up every morning in college. It is still on my desk in my office.

在欢迎你们到来的这一刻，我想起了我自己的高中毕业，以及妈妈为我和我爸爸拍的合影。在大学期间，那个闹钟每天早晨叫醒我。它现在仍然放在我办公室的桌子上。

3. Let me tell you something you might not expect. You will miss your old habits, miss your parents’ reminders to study hard and achieve excellence. You may cry with joy because high school is finally over, and your parents may cry with relief because they no longer have to do your laundry!

让我告诉你们一些你们可能预料不到的事情。你们会怀念以前的生活习惯，怀念父母曾经提醒你们要刻苦学习、取得佳绩。你们可能因为高中生活的结束而喜极而泣，你们的父母也可能因为终于不用再帮你们洗衣服而喜极而泣!
