Question

Nearly all students feel both nervous and excited when their big day comes. On the big day, there will be the graduation ceremony. Students will wear graduation costumes and hats that day. Parents, relatives, and friends may also be invited to the ceremony.

When students enter the hall of the ceremony, they will see lots of schoolmates. They will see that all of them are wearing the same costumes and hats. This makes them feel that it is a very important day. This kind of feeling is rather hard to describe. It will be better to understand if one personally experiences it.

As soon as the ceremony starts, the schoolmaster will give a speech. After the speech, the students will be called to go on the stage（舞臺(tái)）to receive their certificates (證書). This should be the most important part of the whole ceremony. During this moment, most students feel nervous, since hundreds of people are watching them.
