2022届高考二轮复习英语阅读理解必做100题(2)
1. American track and field athlete Jacqueline Joyner-Kersee once said,
“Age is no barrier. It's a limitation you put on your mind.” And 50-year-old Indian
Lakyntiew Syiemlieh stands an evidence for this saying. She recently cleared her
Class 12 board exams. Lakyntiew, who has four children and two grandchildren,
decided to go after her higher secondary education over three decades after
dropping out of school. Earlier this year, she was one of the 24,267 students who
appeared for the state board's Higher Secondary School Leaving Certificate(HSSLC)
exam. Lakyntiew took part in the exams for the arts stream and had chosen
subjects like Khasi, English, Political Science, Economics, and Education as her
areas of specialization.
On July 13, 2020, when the results were announced, she was excited. "Though
I only got the third division(分段), my children were still so excited that they started
shouting, hugging, and kissing me when the results were declared," said
Lakyntiew.
In fact, the grandmother of two has expressed her interest in pursuing(追求)
higher studies in the field of local language. Lakyntiew took up a distance
education course offered by a university in 2015. She stopped going to school
because mathematics was too difficult for her to understand. She was offered a job
to teach in a preschool in 2008, and that was the beginning of her love for
re-learning.
Being the oldest student in the class, most of Lakyntiew's classmates called her
as "Mei", which means "mother" in the local language. Besides concentrating on
academics, she also participated in after-class activities like field trips, dance
competitions, and singing challenges, among others.
Age is not a problem when one is in search of education. Lakyntiew Syiemlieh
is an example for everybody, and especially for those who give up studies midway.
