After visiting several campuses，he settled on Yale，which costs﹩64，000a year with room and board．He is responsible for﹩6，000； Yale scholarships and federal grant money cover the rest．
He'll mostly take it easy during the summer before heading to Yale in late August．He's considering majoring in Latin American studies and perhaps a career as a lawyer or in international affairs．

15．The Ramayana tells the story of a battle between the Hindu （印度教的） god Vishnu and a demon （魔鬼） called Ravana．None of the gods could fight Ravana because of a promise they had foolishly made earlier．So Vishnu decided to be reborn as a man，and then he would be able to fight Ravana．
So Vishnu was born as the prince Rama．Rama was supposed to be king when his father died，but at the last minute his father decided to make his brother king instead．Rama and his other brother Lakshmana and Rama's wife Sita went away to live a simple life in the forest，where the demon Ravana's sister fell in love with Rama and tried to get Rama to leave Sita．When Rama said no，Ravana's sister attacked him，but Rama and his brother Lakshmana fought her off．
The demon went back to her brother Ravana on the island of Lanka and complained to him that Rama had attacked her．Also，Ravana's sister told him how beautiful Rama's wife Sita was．So he went to the forest to see for himself．
When Ravana got to the forest，he found itwas true．So he took Sita back to Lanka．Sita was very sad there and missed Rama very much．

14．In 1943，when I was 4，my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene，Idaho，to Fairbanks，Alaska，where adventure was never very far away．
We arrived in the summer，just in time to enjoy the midnight sun．All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden．Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off，so she didn't care much about my bedtime．
Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk．That left me in a mess．I usually managed to find some trouble to get into．Once I had a little Are going in the dirt basement of a hotel．I had tried to light a barrel（桶） of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going．The smoke got pretty bad，though，and when 1 made my exit，a crowd and the police were there to greet me．The policemen took my matches and drove me
Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me，and they did!I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me.1 hadn't turned 5 yet．
As I entered kindergarten，the serious cold began to set in．Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school？
