She is learning to use the computer program Power Point. “I enjoy the college, but my job doesn't use the information I learned at college, ” Ann says. “The course(课程)is helping me to do my job better.”
In the past, when students graduated from college and got a job, they usually stopped studying. Today lifelong learning is becoming more common. In many countries, some people return to school in their late twenties, or even older to get a higher degree. More people are taking training courses to improve their working skills after work. People can also get degrees or training through the Internet. Ann's sixty-year-old mother and father are taking courses in Art and Music. “We love these two subjects. Learning is so much fun,” they say happily. “It's never too old to learn.”

About ten years ago when I was at university, I worked at my university's museum. One day I was working in the gift shop, I saw two old people come with a little girl in a wheelchair (轮椅).
As I looked closer this girl, I realized she had no arms or legs, just a head, neck and body. She was (wear) a little white dress. When the old people pushed her up to me, I was looking down at the desk. I turned my head and gave (she) a smile. As I took the money from her grandparents, I looked back at the girl, who was giving me the cutest, (happy) smile I had ever seen.
Just at that , her physical handicap (生理缺陷) was gone. All I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile just impressed me almost gave me a completely new idea of what life is all about. She took me from a poor, unhappy university student and brought me into her world, a world of smiles and love.

Whenever you are free, find something special to do, like making a dinner for your family. But remember: limit your screen time, no more than two hours.
