   When I was walking down the street the other day , I happened to notice a small brown leather wallet lying on the sidewalk . I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the owner’s name . There was nothing inside it except some change and an old photograph-a picture of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old , who looked like the woman’s daughter . I put the photograph back and took the wallet to the police station , where I handed it to the desk sergeant . Before I left , the sergeant took down my name and address in case the owner might want to write and thank me .

     That evening I went to have dinner with my aunt and uncle . They had also invited a young woman so that there would be four people at the table . Her face was familiar . I was quite sure that we had not met before , but I could not remember where I had seen her . In the course of conversation , however , the young woman happened to mention that she had lost her wallet that afternoon . All at once I realized where I had seen her . She was the young girl in the photograph , although she was now much older . She was very surprised , of course , when I was able to describle her wallet to her . Then I explained that I had recognized her from the photograph I had found in the wallet . My uncle insisted on going to the police station immediately to claim the wallet . As the police sergeant handed it over , he said that it was an amazing coincidence that I had not only found the wallet , but also the person who had lost it .

     When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or   for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For   I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story   than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember   the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For   instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the   story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and   cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in   the speech of a 13 character.

           

   Of course, it is all right to read and enjoy and 14 a story, and   so 15 as one wants to 16 the story only, one need not bother (费心)   about the language. But the case is quite different with a 17 of   English. I mean a student of English is different from a student of   stories or 18 is called the general reader.

           

   As you may also have 19 from the above, you ought to read very 20.   Not only very carefully but also aloud, and that again and again 21   you know the passage by heart and can 22 it as if it were your own.   Positively (正面) this will teach you many 23 words and phrases;   negatively (负面) it will help you to avoid many errors and faults in   expression. Incidentally I have found from 24 that intelligent   copying is a help to 25 by heart.

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.
