　　 The day was like any other day in his life. Tom walked past the shop on the street corner. He stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt happy to see that the pair of shoes he wanted very much was still there. Looking down at his old shoes, he felt sorry for himself. He really wanted to have them for his birthday.

　　 He sadly walked away and thought how to tell his mother about it. He knew very well she had little money. He decided not to go home at once, as he looked sad and his mother would notice it. So he went to the park and sat on the grass. There he saw a boy moving a wheelchair with his hands. Tom looked at him and was surprised to see that the boy had no feet. He looked at his own feet. “It’s much better to be without shoes than without feet. ”he thought. There was no reason for him to feel so sorry and sad. He went away and smiled, thinking he was happier.　 (　　 )1. Tom passed the shop _________.

　　 What will you be doing when you are 26 years o1d?Studying at university or working for a

living? Take a look at what Albert Einstein was doing at the age of 26.

　　 100 years ago，Einstein was working in Switzerland．His hobby was physics．Without much

money or help，he wrote five papers(论文)for a physics magazine．Three of these greatly changed the study of physics and our understanding of space，time，light and matter(物质)．His most famous work is on the Theory of Relativity(相对论)．Einstein was given the Nobel Prize(诺贝尔奖)for 11is discoveries．Although he did many other things later，1905 has been called Einstein’s “Year of Wonders(奇迹)”．It has been 100 years since then．Because of this，the UN has named 2005 me World Year Of Physics．

　　 Fifty years after Einstein’s death，a question is asked，“Will there ever be another Einstein?”

It may take a 1ong time．After all，Einstein was born more than 200 years after Sir Isaac Newton，

another great scientist．Besides，physics is a different field(领域)now, and education is different，

that made Einstein great．He thought independently(独立地)and read widely．He left us with a

formula(公式)for life：If A is a success in life，men A=X+Y+Z．X is work；Y is play; and Z is

　　 Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended.

　　 “That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty (诚实)is, ”said Cai Wenguo, the school’s headmaster. The school says no cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas.

　　 “I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任)me, ”said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11.

　　 “Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed. ”said Hua Sha.

　　 “I don’t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed. ”Liu Qingxi said.

　　 “I think it’s very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them. ”Shangguan Yuan said.

　　 Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.
