1．    Lucy Hobbs came to the University of Wisconsin already knowing she wanted to study nursing so she could make a positive difference in the lives of others.Once she was on campus，she realized she could make an even greater impact on her future patients by adding a second major（專業(yè)），one in Spanish.
    "I was drawn to nursing because I want a career that will be fulfilling and will help me serve others，" says Hobbs. "I chose to add a major in Spanish because I love learning about other cultures，and I want to do something for those easily ignored populations in my nursing career."
    In addition to her nursing and Spanish curriculum，Hobbs found multiple interesting ways to bring her majors together，including things like research and study abroad.Hobbs was part of a research project that is documenting the experiences of Spanish-speaking populations in western Wisconsin during COVID-19.The research team included students and teachers in languages，history and nursing.
    In addition to her research，studying abroad was also helpful.She spent part of the spring 2020 semester studying in Costa Rica. "This was my first time outside of the U.S.and I learned so much about Costa Rican culture，" Hobbs says.
    While she found many opportunities within her majors，Hobbs also had meaningful experiences on campus that were outside of nursing and Spanish.For example，she worked as a resident assistant in the dorms and is a member of the University Honors Program. "All these experiences helped me to enhance my time on campus by giving me opportunities to meet amazing and inspiring individuals who I believe will remain lifetime friends，"
    Hobbs says， "All these experiences also helped to shape how I think about the future." After she graduates in May，Hobbs will begin her nursing career working in the emergency room at UW Health's University Hospital in Madison.

2．    Another person's enthusiasm—the strong wish and interest to do everything，was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved.That person was my stepmother.
    I was nine years old when she entered our home in the countryside of Virginia.My father introduced me to her with these words： "I would like you to meet the fellow who is well known for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no later than tomorrow morning."
    My stepmother walked over to me，raised my head slightly upward，and looked at me right into my eyes.Then she looked at my father and replied， "You are wrong.This is not the worst boy at all，but the smartest one who hasn't yet found a way to give out his enthusiasm."
    That statement began a friendship between us.No one had ever called me smart，my family and neighbors had built me up in my mind as a bad boy.My stepmother changed all that.
    She changed many things.She persuaded my father to go to a dental school，from which he graduated with honors.She moved our family into the county centre，where my father's career could be more successful and my brother and I could be better educated.
    When I turned fourteen，she bought me a secondhand typewriter and told me that she believed that I could become a writer.I knew her enthusiasm，and I saw how it had already improved our lives.I accepted her belief and began to write for local newspapers and finally reached the goal she set for me. I wasn't the only beneficiary.My father became the wealthiest man in town.My brother and stepbrothers became a physician，a dentist，a lawyer，and a college president.

3．    I remember the first time I met Roy.He was standing in the center of a group of boys，and he was telling a joke.He was really a popular boy.My name is Daniel.I was the new boy in the class.My father had been offered a job in London，so our whole family moved here.I was twelve and，having lost all my old friends，I felt uneasy and lonely at my new school.
    There were 33 students in my new class，and most people weren't very interested in a shy new boy.Roy was one of the few people who was kind to me.Roy and I became good friends.We relied on each other and we could talk about personal matters，things that were important to us.
    Five years later，Roy and I are still in the same class.But just under a year ago，Roy's father was knocked down by a car.He died a few days later.The family had to move to a much smaller house because they couldn't afford the big house any more.Roy，who had always been very close to his father，changed completely，becoming silent and moody.
    Last week our school had a big fair in order to raise money for a charity （慈善機(jī)構(gòu)）.It was very successful and by the end of the day，we had made about ￡500.Our class teacher，Mr White，came and chatted to a group of us that included Roy，and held up a box for us to see."There's ￡500 in here，" he said with a smile.But to our surprise，the next morning，we were told that the money had been stolen.Mr White had left the box in the classroom for a few minutes，and when he came back it had disappeared.The head teacher asked anyone who thought they might know something about it to come to him.
    This weekend，I went to Roy's home.Roy was out，and I went upstairs to his bedroom to wait for him.It was a cold day and his jacket was lying on the back of a chair.I put it on and put my hands in the pockets.I could feel a lot of paper notes and I pulled them out.
    It looked as if there was about ￡500 there.I was so surprised that I just stood there，holding the notes in my hands.
    At that moment，the door opened，and Roy walked in.
