When
16-year-old
Ella
Fitzgerald
stepped
onto
the
stage
to
perform
at
Harlem
’
s
Apollo
Theater
in
1934,
she
had
no
idea
that
her
life
was
about
to
change.
Her
childhood
had
been
50
. After the death of her parents,
Fitzgerald had been placed in a boarding school.
51
, the
teachers
at
the
school
mistreated
her,
so
she
ran
away.
Homeless
and
orphaned,
Fitzgerald
was
trying her best to
52
on the streets of New York City when
she won a contest to perform
during an
amateur night at the Apollo. She had
53
planned to dance, but at the last
second,
she decided to sing her
mother
’
s favorite song
instead. Her performance earned her
54
from
several well-known
musicians. Ella Fitzgerald went on to become a
55
jazz singer.
During a musical career that spanned
six decades, Fitzgerald
56
more than 200 albums.
She
won 13 Grammy Awards, the last of which she
received in 1990. She worked with some of
the greatest American singers of the
twentieth century, including Frank Sinatra, Louis
Armstrong,
Count Basie, and Dizzy
Gillespie. Her talent and charm
57
a wide range of listeners around
the world. The worldwide
58
of Ella Fitzgerald helped make jazz a
more popular genre.

that white citizens received.

places where
discrimination
(

) was practiced. They
also decided not to perform
unless
they
were
paid
the
same
amount
as
white
singers
and
musicians.
Ella
’
s
fight
for
61
received support from numerous
celebrity admirers, including Marilyn Monroe.
Fitzgerald never
took her good fortune
for granted. She gave money to charities and
organizations that contributed
to

disadvantages
children.
For
her
many
civic
contributions,
in
1992
President
George
Bush
awarded
her
the
Presidential
Medal
of
Honor,
one
of
the
highest
honors

Why
do
people
go
to
university?
There
is
a
popular
notion
that
a
college
education
is
something
to
be
endured
in
order
to
become __50__ to
obtain
certain
kinds
of
jobs
or
to
go
to
graduate school. This is
not what we are trying to do at Harvard, nor would
we wish to have many
students here who
took such a(n) __51__ view of a college career.
There are several goals we aim to reach
in our undergraduate program.
The
most
obvious
one
is
to
give
knowledge
—
fairly
__52__ knowledge
in
one
field
and
a
more general knowledge of a variety of
other subject areas which you may choose according
to
your
interest.
But
if
acquiring
knowledge
is
a
self-evident
part
of
a
college
education,
it
is
__53__the
most
important.
Remarkably
few
of
the
facts
you
learn
here
will
remain
in
your
__54__ for
many
years,
and
some
of
those
that
do
will
even
be
proved __55__ by
new
knowledge.
__56__, we can
instill(
灌输
) certain
attitudes of mind
—
a
willingness to accept uncertainty,
and
the
lack
of
definite
truths;
independence
of
mind,
and
a
respect
for
facts
and
for
the
uncomfortable conclusions which facts
sometimes lead to.
In addition to these
__57__ qualities, a college education should try
to lay a foundation for
the
creative
use
of
__58__ time.
Some
of
this
capacity
can
be
stimulated
in
the
classroom
—
in
courses in the humanities and the arts.
Yet, at least as much __59__ will occur outside
the lecture
hall
—
on athletic
fields, in music rooms, student theaters, concert
halls, and so forth.
These
are
some
of
the
__60__
of
a
liberal
college
education
as
I
see
them.
I
cannot
resist
concluding with a few private thoughts
about our new careers at Harvard.
To
begin with, I hope that we will think __61__ about
what we want to accomplish here. It
would be __62__ for you to set your
sights on some limited goal, such as getting good
grades or
merely getting into one or
another graduate school.
Second, I hope
that you will give some thought to what you can do
for others during your
stay
here.
There
are
many
problems
waiting
for
your
help,
and
many
people
who
could
__63__ your efforts.
My
final
bit
of
advice.
Whatever
else
we
do,
let
us
remember
not
to
take
ourselves
too
seriously.
However
great
our
problems
may
seem,
however
urgent
our
complaints,
they
are
overshadowed
（
黯然失色）
by the __64__ of countless other
people on our planet.

Starting around 1348, the
plague(
瘟疫
) hit the
continents of Europe and Asia. As a result,
it
killed
an
50
forty
million
people.
This
disease
has
come
to
be
known
as
the
Black
Death.
Its
victims
suffered
a
horribly
painful
death
51
by
fever
and
dying,
blackened
flesh.
Although
they
are
not
certain,
many
historians
agree
that
the
Black
Death
probably
originated
in
China
and
spread
through
trade
52
,
carried
by
fleas
(
跳蚤
)found
on
rats.
Rats are
very common in cities, so these areas were hit the
hardest. The disease passed to humans
when the fleas would jump from the rats
to a human host.
Every social group suffered from the
Black Death---it was not a discriminating
(
有识别力
的
)disease.
But those who lived in rural settings were
sometimes
53
, as were the wealthy,
who
had
less
54
with
outsiders
and
could
afford
to
move
to
more
remote
areas
in
an
55
to spare
themselves.
The
Black
Death
had
many
long-term
56
.
Certain
areas
of
Europe
were
nearly
57
after
it,
including
some
of
its
prosperous
cities.
For
example,
Bremen,
Germany,
lost
almost 7,000 of its
12,000 inhabitants; Florence, Italy, lost 40,000
of its nearly 90,000; and Paris
lost
more than 50,000 of its 180,000. Major cities had
to create mass graveyards where the dead
could be buried. European population
only began to
58
again in the last decades of the
15th century.
The
Black Death also brought about
59
changes. As
large numbers of peasants died,
there
was
a
shortage
of
labor. Peasants
had
60
spent
generations
working for
the
same
family,
but
after
the
plague
hit,
they
began
to
take
advantage
of
the
labor
61
.
Workers
62
many times their usual pay
for work and would sometimes move to a new lord or
noble
who
offered
63
incentives
(
刺激
;
鼓励
)
and
working
conditions.
In
this
way,
the
Black
Death
caused
the
landowning
aristocracy
(
贵族
)
to
lose
much
of
their
power
and
social
