Lillian Hanson, a college student, expects to graduate in about two years. What makes Mrs Hanson different from her classmates is her age-----73 years. She has been studying at college, a few courses at a time, for 27 years.
  When Lillian Hanson graduated from high school, she went to the bank to borrow money for further education. The banker gave her no encouragement. He didn‘t think that a country girl should borrow money to go to college. He thought she should be at home doing work in the house or around the farm. So Lillian Hanson went home and raised a family of nine children instead of going to college. Mrs Hanson never forgot her dream of getting a higher education. When her children were grown, she tried again.
  She finds that it is the hardest part of going back to school at her age to sit in class for long periods of time. Because she is not as quick as she used to be, Mrs Hanson often gets up and walks around classes to keep from getting stiff(不灵活). At the beginning of a course in using the computer, the other students all stood up to give her a warm welcome when she introduced herself and explained why she was there and what her aims were.
小题1: Mrs Hanson couldn’t go to college immediately after she graduated from high school because _____.
A.she hadn‘t got enough moneyB.she was a country girl
C.the banker ordered her not to borrow any money
D.the banker thought she should raise a family of nine children
小题2:The computer students welcomed Mrs Hanson warmly because ______.
A.she had got an excellent result in the exam

C.they wanted to get her help in their studies
D.they were deeply moved by her spirit
小题3: Mrs Hanson is the sort of person who ________.
A.cares for study very muchB.likes to borrow money from the bank
C.never misses a chance to talkD.tries to save any money for her family
小题4: In which order did Mrs Hanson do the following things?
