嗨，媽媽。下周六是我的畢業(yè)典禮，典禮將持續(xù)三天。你去參加嗎？

周日呢？
A: Sunday will be the most highlight part, especially the Class Day. The Baccalaureate is at 11 a.m.. And Class Day will begin at 2 p.m..
周日是重頭戲，尤其是"畢業(yè)班日"。布道會將在上午11點開始，"畢業(yè)班日" 是下午兩點開始。

有什么有趣的活動嗎？
A: Of course. On Class Day, seniors will march from each street or college onto the Old Campus, and will be accompanied by the customary display of creative hats.
當然啦。"畢業(yè)班日”那天，畢業(yè)生從各街道和學院浩浩蕩蕩走進"老校區(qū)"，并 順便展示他們的創(chuàng)意學士帽。
B: Creative hats? What’s that?
創(chuàng)意學士帽？什么意思？
A: Throughout the 3-day commencement, graduates are clad in black gowns, but we are free to design our headgears. A birthday cake, leafy garlands, figurines④，pointed hats embroidered with a slim “Y”，or hats with all manner of stuffed animals, and so on and so forth.
在為期三天的畢業(yè)典禮活動中，畢業(yè)生們都要穿著黑色的袍子，但是我們可以自由地設計各自的學士帽。可以做成生日蛋糕的形狀，可以做成綠葉裝飾的花環(huán)， 可以頂個小雕塑，可以是上面繡著瘦長的“Y”字樣的尖頂帽子，也可以是裝飾 著形態(tài)各異的小動物工藝品的帽子，等等。
B: Sounds interesting. I’m eager to see those odd hats. By the way, what’s your creation?
聽起來很有意思。我都迫不及待想看看那些奮形怪狀的帽子了。對了，你的設計是什么樣子的？
A: Well, it's a secret. You must be surprised on Sunday. Just wait patiently.
哦，是個秘密哦。周日你一定會大吃一驚的。耐心等待吧。
B: Ok. I’m looking forward to that day.
好吧。希望那_天早日到來。
A: I heard that Clinton will be the featured speaker at Class Day.
聽說克林頓是這次畢業(yè)班日的特邀演講人。
B: Really? That’s big news. I still remember him spoke at Yale’s tercentennial. It’s on Oct. 6， 2001，shortly after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
是嗎？那可是條大新聞。我還記得他在耶魯300固年紀念活動上的演講呢。2001 年10月6號，就在9.n恐怖襲擊后不久。
A: Exactly. Clinton emphasized the importance of teaching tolerance and compassion in a world riddled with hatred and doubt, and lauded Yale for being a “global university.” He also spoke at his 35th reunion in 2008.
是的。當時克林頓強調(diào)，在一個充滿仇恨與懷疑的世界里，教學生學會容忍，學 會同情別人，這一點很重要。他還稱贊耶魯是一所"全球性的大學”。2008年， 他還在他的35周年畢業(yè)聚會上作演講了。
B: And I'm sure we’ll see a crowded Yale on Sunday. People will come from far and near to see former president Clinton. Anyway, Yale students will be happy to have such a high-profile figure deliver the address.
固日耶魯肯定會很擁擠。人們會從四面八方趕來看一眼前美國總統(tǒng)克林頓。不管 怎樣，能請來這么高層次的人物做演講，耶魯學生會很開心的。
A: Such as me. I’m confident he will give a meaningful speech. Despite his sex scandal, I am moved by his charity work.
我就是個例子。我相信，克林頓一定會做一場很有意義的演講。盡管他曾傳出過 性丑聞，但是他在慈善事業(yè)上的努力還是令我感動的。
B: I agree. The Clinton Foundation has been doing good things to people in Africa and Latin America...
我也是。克林頓基金一直在為非洲及拉丁美洲的人們做善事……
A: Anyway, few universities have the ability to attract former presidents. What an amazing place Yale is! And how lucky I am to be a Yalie!
畢竟，很少有學校能請到前總統(tǒng)做演講。耶魯真是個好地方??！作為耶魯?shù)囊环肿?，我多么幸運！
B: Yeah. I’m proud of you, baby. What’s following the speech?
是啊，我為你自豪，寶貝。演講之后是什么活動呢？
A: Well, a lot of things, such as planting the memorial Ivy. The final Class Day tradition is the singing of the alma mater “Bright College Years.”
哦，還有很多活動呢。比如，種植常春藤。“畢業(yè)班日”最后一項傳統(tǒng)是含唱校歌"美 好的大學時光"。
B: I see. When would you get your diploma?
知道了。什么時候領(lǐng)取畢業(yè)證書呢？
A:Diploma ceremony is on Monday.
頒發(fā)證書的儀式是在周一。
B: I'm afraid I would cry out seeing you receive the diploma from your Dean. You are a big boy now.
看到你從院長手里接過畢業(yè)證書，恐怕我會忍不住哭出來的。你已經(jīng)長大了。
