What did Ethbell do when she was 68?
After retiring from 30 years of teaching, Ethbell Pepper could easily have decided to sit back and relax and enjoy a peaceful retirement. But that kind of life is not for Ethbell Pepper. "I just want to do something different. If you are going to participate in life, do it. Don’t just sit down and look out of the window." She says. At 68, she decided to become one of the pioneer participation in a program in the University of California. The program offers campus housing and classes to people over sixty. She enrolled in a class called Human Relationships and Diverse Society. "I have taught my minority students in my English and drama classes in high school for 20 years. But in this course, I found out a lot about other cultures I didn’t know then. One of the most important lessons that I’m learning is to perceive, not to judge." Older adults can add to the educational resources at the university by bringing with them a lot of valuable experience. Their presence on campus helps break some long believes of aging. Young students may have fears of growing older. But that kind of fear can be reduced as they see that older people can be active, healthy, and continue to contribute to society. The younger students can begin to see aging as a natural part of living.

A、Bring a great deal of useful experience to the university.
B、Improve human relationships in the university.
C、Bring a fear of aging among young students on the campus.
D、Improve the reputation of the university.

A
