　　[32]May and June are the months when most American colleges and universities hold their graduation ceremonies. These ceremonies are a time for family and friends to gather and celebrate a student's completion of an academic degree. Most ceremonies are traditional. The students wear caps and gowns over their clothing. One by one, their names are called. They go to the front, shake hands with school officials and receive a document of some kind. But first they must sit and listen to speeches. Colleges and universities often invite famous guests or former students who have been successful. Schools often want speakers to comment on world events. This Saturday, for example, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton will speak at the graduation ceremony at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York. [33]News people are often invited to speak at graduations. So are entertainers.[34]Actor John Lithgow, a 1967 graduate of Harvard, will speak at the university on June 9th. Then there are speakers like Jon Stewart. He entertains by making fun of the news. His popular program, "The Daily Show," appears on Comedy Central on cable television. Last year, Jon Stewart spoke at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia. He graduated from there in 1984. He did offer some serious advice. He said: "College is something you complete. Life is something you experience. [35]So don't worry about your grade, or the results or success. Success is defined in various ways, and you will find it... Love what you do. Get good at it."

　　Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　32. When do most American universities hold their graduation ceremonies?

　　[C]解析：短文開頭說：“5、6月是大多數(shù)美國(guó)大學(xué)舉行畢業(yè)典禮的月份”。故答案為C。細(xì)節(jié)題，問月份。短文開頭處的信息。聽到什么選什么。

　　33. Who are often invited to speak at the graduation ceremonies?

　　[C]解析：文中談到，“常常會(huì)邀請(qǐng)新聞人物和藝人在畢業(yè)典禮上致辭”，故選C。由選項(xiàng)知本題問到某一類人物。可以邊聽邊做筆記。根據(jù)“聽到什么選什么”的原則，可以得到正確選項(xiàng)。

　　34. Which university did the actor John Lithgow graduate from?

　　[A]解析：文中提到“演員John Lithgow是哈佛大學(xué)1967屆畢業(yè)生”，根據(jù)問題，選A。

　　35. What advice did Jon Stewart give at the ceremony of the College of William and Mary?

　　[A]解析：短文最后引用了Jon Stewart的忠告：“不要為成績(jī)、分?jǐn)?shù)、成功擔(dān)心。成功有著不同的定義，你們會(huì)獲得成功的。”其含義是要樂觀向上，故選A。B、D與Jon的話無關(guān)，C說“使你的校園生活豐富多彩”，與本文主旨不符。本文討論畢業(yè)典禮而不是入學(xué)典禮，所以來賓的話重點(diǎn)不會(huì)談大學(xué)生活，而是談畢業(yè)后的人生。
