6. READING COMPREHENSION
My name's Lisa. I'm 20 years old and I'm from Texas. I think the best time of my life was
when I was at senior high school. I really enjoyed it.
It was a normal school. We started at 7 o'clock and we went home at half past two.
Every day began with the flag raising ceremony. We all used to stand with our hands and our
hearts while the flag was raised by one of the students and we all pledged our loyalty to the
USA. One of the things that I really liked about the school was that it had a very strong sense of
community. It was a small town so we all knew each other and that was great.
I used to play basketball for the school team. When we played against other schools it
was always a big event. The school band played and that was great because I was in love with a
really good looking guy who played the saxophone in the band. His name was Matt. The
cheerleaders danced, too. My best friend Carolyn was one of the cheerleaders and of course all
our parents came to watch.
At the end of senior high we had our graduation day. We were all there in all caps and
gowns to receive our graduation certificates. Our parents were all very proud but the best thing
was the high school prom. My date was Matt, the guy from the band and my friend Carolyn was
the prom queen. It was a wonderful evening. Happy days. I'm at college now in Chicago. Life
here is very different.
It's hundreds of miles from my hometown so I don't see my parents very often and all of
my school friends are at colleges and other cities. And college isn't free. So I have a part time job
in a restaurant to help pay for it. I'm enjoying my time here but I'll always have good memories
of senior high school. It really was the best time of my life.
