B: Creative hats? What’s that?
創(chuàng)意學(xué)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(dòng)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(shè)計(jì)各自的學(xué)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(gè)小雕塑，可以是上面繡著瘦長(zhǎng)的“Y”字樣的尖頂帽子，也可以是裝飾 著形態(tài)各異的小動(dòng)物工藝品的帽子，等等。

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(duì)了，你的設(shè)計(jì)是什么樣子的？

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(jì)念活動(dòng)上的演講呢。2001 年10月6號(hào)，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(dāng)時(shí)克林頓強(qiáng)調(diào)，在一個(gè)充滿仇恨與懷疑的世界里，教學(xué)生學(xué)會(huì)容忍，學(xué) 會(huì)同情別人，這一點(diǎn)很重要。他還稱贊耶魯是一所"全球性的大學(xué)”。2008年， 他還在他的35周年畢業(yè)聚會(huì)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(huì)很擁擠。人們會(huì)從四面八方趕來看一眼前美國(guó)總統(tǒng)克林頓。不管 怎樣，能請(qǐng)來這么高層次的人物做演講，耶魯學(xué)生會(huì)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(gè)例子。我相信，克林頓一定會(huì)做一場(chǎng)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(dòng)的。
B: I agree. The Clinton Foundation has been doing good things to people in Africa and Latin America...
我也是?？肆诸D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(xué)校能請(qǐng)到前總統(tǒng)做演講。耶魯真是個(gè)好地方??！作為耶魯?shù)囊环肿?，我多么幸運(yùn)！
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(dòng)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(dòng)呢。比如，種植常春藤。“畢業(yè)班日”最后一項(xiàng)傳統(tǒng)是含唱校歌"美 好的大學(xué)時(shí)光"。
B: I see. When would you get your diploma?
知道了。什么時(shí)候領(lǐng)取畢業(yè)證書呢？
