Room for the Future
At the age of forty-five, my usually well-ordered life was filled with changes. After twenty-two years of working for a major bank, a downsizing wave resulted in the elimination of over one hundred jobs, mine being one of them.
Para. 6
Oral presentations were often required for one class. I remember thinking that if I had known this beforehand, I would have taken something else to achieve my required credits. By nature, I am a rather reserved individual, and speaking in front of people terrified me. As I stood in front of the other adults with whom I shared a common goal, my knees were visibly knocking, and my heartbeat almost audible. Somehow, I found my voice and made my presentation with effort. The next time it was easier, and soon, I was starting to enjoy it a little. Later in the year, I even interviewed a local reporter for an English assignment, much to the amazement of my teacher. My confidence level rose. Suddenly I felt like I could accomplish anything.

During the reading, there is an explanation for the following points:Language Points:1. That year every guy on campus had a leather jacket, and Rob couldn’t stand the idea of being the onlyfootball player who didn’t, so he made a pact that he’d give me his girl in exchange for my jacket. (Para.1)Meaning: That year every young man in the college wore a leather jacket. Rob was the only one in the football team who didn’t have one. He felt frustrated whenever he thought about it, so he made an agreement with me that if I gave him my leather jacket, he would, as anexchange, give me his girlfriend.make a pact: 达成协议 in exchange for: 作为（对... 的）交换2. If I could show the elite law firms I applied to that I had a radiant, well-spoken counterpart by my side, Ijust might edge past the competition.

After a banner day out, I drove until we were situated under a big old oak tree on a hill off the expressway.(Para.4)Meaning: After spending an excellent day out with her, I drove my car to a hill by the highway.
