One day Mr.White gave his wife ten pounds for her birthday-ten new pound notes.So Mrs.White went out shopping.She waited for a bus, got on it and sat down next to an old lady.After a while, Mrs.White noticed that the old lady’s handbag was open.Inside it, she saw a wad(疊)of pound notes exactly like the ones her husband had given her.So she quickly looked into her own bag-the notes had gone!Mrs.White was sure that the old lady next to her had stolen them.She immediately thought of calling the police.But as she disliked making a fuss(小題大作),she decided to take back the money from the old lady’s hand bag and say nothing about it.She looked around to make sure nobody was watching.Then she carefully put her hand into the old lady’s bag, took the notes, and put them into her own handbag.

There’re women   18     side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys   19    the football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to    20    , and they will.

Last evening I was watching the evening news on television. The news was about a prize for scientific  1   ;I forgot what it was. The announcer, whose name was Ralph Story, said something that caught my  2  .“All great discoveries,”he said,“are made by people between the ages of twenty-five and thirty.”  3   a little over thirty myself, I wanted to disagree with him.  4   wants to think that he is past the age of making any discovery. The next day I happened to be in the public library and spent several hours looking up the  5  of famous people and their discoveries. Ralph was right.

First I looked at some of the   6   discoveries. One of the earliest discoveries, the famous experiment that proved that bodies of different  7   fall at the same speed, was made by Galileo when he was 26. Madam Curie started her research that  8   to the Nobel Prize when she was 28. Einstein was 26 when he published his world-changing theory of relativity. Well,  9   of that. Yet I  10   if those“best years”were true in other  11   .

Then how about the field of   12   ? Surely it needs the wisdom of age to make a good leader. Perhaps it  13   ,but look when these people  14   their career. Winston Churchill was elected to the House of Commons at the age of 26. Abraham Lincoln  15   the life of a country lawyer and was elected to government. At what age? Twenty-six.

But why  16   best years some after thirty? After thirty, I  17   ,most people do not want to take risks or try   18   ways. Then I thought of people like Shakespeare and Picasso. The former was writing wonderful works at the ripe age of fifty, while the latter was  19   trying new ways of painting when he was ninety!

Perhaps there is still  20   for me.
