問題詳情
請依下文回答第 36 題至第 40 題When Michael Vaudreuil’s college classmates were in the library studying together at night, he was wiping downchalkboards and picking up their trash. But this weekend, donning a black cap and gown, he stood with them not as a54-year-old college custodian but as a fellow undergraduate. It was 2008, the year of the economic downturn, whenVaudreuil filed for bankruptcy, he lost his house to foreclosure and his car was repossessed. His thriving 24-yearplastering business had ground to a halt as the economy waned. The only work he could find was as a night custodianat a local college. It was about a 50 percent pay cut, the work wasn’t stimulating, but the benefits were good. Hedecided he would take advantage of every free benefit the school offered so it would feel like he was making moremoney. So Vaudreuil started taking undergraduate classes tuition free at the college by day, and cleaning up after hisclassmates by night. He did schoolwork in the early mornings and after class in the afternoons before he started his 3p.m. to 11 p.m. shift cleaning the academic building bathrooms and scrubbing the floors. Nearly a decade later,Vaudreuil graduated on May 14 with a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering. At the graduationceremony, his whole family was there to see him receive his diploma. Surrounded by fellow graduates half his age, hetook a little bow. And the crowd cheered.
