thank you guys  
I read everything and decided to take a test  
I got it as follows:

import org.openqa.selenium.By  
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select  
import com.kms.katalon.core.webui.driver.DriverFactory

Select select = new Select(DriverFactory.getWebDriver().findElement(By.xpath("//select[@id=‘myDropdown’]")))  
String MyLabel = select.getFirstSelectedOption().getText()
