阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项。
Recently I paid a visit to Harvard University, where there
are top class scientists and professors and the best academic system in the
world.
I was pretty shocked when I first stepped into the campus.
Well, it's not even really a campus. It's
more like a district in a small town. Harvard's main buildings are from
the 18th century. They
look very old and simple. You might
even say they're a little shabby. They
don't fit the modern idea of the university at all. The buildings are surrounded
by grass and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into an ancient castle. But
when I looked across the street, busy shops and in-fashion students made me
feel like I was in the 21st century again. It creates a strong
contrast and brings a special atmosphere to the school.
Our tour guide Gary took us around and told us, "You
see this grass field in the center of the school? Here is where they host(举办)
their graduation ceremony. They just set up tents and beaches and have a very
simple ceremony." Unbelievable! Who would think the most talented students
just graduate on the lawn?
I saw some students put a blanket on the grass and lie
down to read a book. When I listened to the soft sound of pages turning, along
with singing of the birds, I felt very calm. There was no competitive feeling
at all.
Harvard has the world's first computer in its science
center and there are hundreds of high-end (高端 的 )computers, too. Its religion
and the literature departments are also among the best. It is the perfect mix
of tradition and new technology. It makes Harvard a very attractive place to
study in.
I hope one day I'll attend my dream school—Harvard.
