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.

One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Avenue, ¡¡ 21¡¡ I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. Why I wished to buy only one pair is ¡¡ 22¡¡ . I turned into the first sock shop that ¡¡ 23¡¡ my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old ¡¡ 24¡¡ . ¡°What can I do for you, sir?¡± ¡°I wish to buy a pair of socks.¡± His eyes were shining. There was a note of ¡¡ 25¡¡ in his voice. ¡°Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks?¡± I had not been aware of that, as I entered the shop ¡¡ 26¡¡ . ¡°Come with me,¡± said the boy, excitedly. I followed him to the back part of the shop, and he began to take down from the shelves box after box, ¡¡ 27¡¡ their contents for my enjoyment. ¡°Hold on, young man, I am going to buy only one pair!¡± ¡°I know that,¡± said he, ¡°but I want you to see ¡¡28¡¡ beautiful these are. Aren¡¯t they wonderful?¡±¡¡ 29¡¡ was on his face an expression of pleasure, ¡¡ 30¡¡ he were uncovering the mysteries of his religion. I became far ¡¡ 31¡¡ interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement. ¡°My friend,¡± said I, ¡°if you can keep this up, if this is not ¡¡32¡¡ the enthusiasm that comes from having a new job, if you can keep up this enthusiasm and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every ¡¡ 33¡¡ in the United States.¡±
My amazement ¡¡ 34¡¡ his pride and joy in salesmanship will be easily understood by all who read this article. In many shops the ¡¡ 35¡¡ has to wait for someone to serve him. And when ¡¡ 36¡¡ some clerk does notice you, you are made to feel as if you were interrupting him. Either he is ¡¡ 37¡¡ in deep thought in which he hates to be disturbed or he is chatting with a girl clerk and you feel like ¡¡ 38¡¡ for ¡°being too rude¡±.
He shows no interest either in you or in the goods he ¡¡ 39¡¡ to sell. Yet possibly the very clerk who is now so indifferent(ÀäÄ®µÄ) began his career with hope and ¡¡ 40¡¡ . The daily work was too much for him; the newness disappears slowly; his only pleasures were found outside of working hours; and he saw younger clerks who had more enthusiasm in their work promoted over him. He became sour. That was the last stage. His usefulness was over.

I had just finished high school when a disaster hit our family. It was October 1962, and ¡¡ 21¡¡ was out of the question. So I found a job. In 1971, my employer announced only graduates(´óѧ±ÏÒµÉú) would get ¡¡22¡¡ . My job seemed at a dead end unless I ¡¡ 23¡¡ further. And to graduate, I had to pass the higher secondary examination first.
¡¡¡¡¡¡ I ¡¡ 24¡¡ an admission form£¨±í¸ñ£© and rode to the Human Resource£¨ÈËÁ¦×ÊÔ´£© Management office. On arriving there, I was ¡¡ 25¡¡ ---I couldn¡¯t find the form. It was the last day to ¡¡ 26¡¡ the form, and no blank forms were ¡¡27¡¡ at the office. I was standing there, disappointed, ¡¡ 28¡¡ an elderly gentleman asked me why I looked so ¡¡ 29¡¡ . I told him what happened, ¡¡ 30¡¡ , ¡°Now I¡¯ll have to wait another year.¡±
¡¡¡¡¡¡ ¡°Well,¡± he said, ¡°if you¡¯re really serious about studying further, come with me. I have a ¡¡ 31¡¡ blank form at home.¡±
¡¡¡¡¡¡ It was 12:30 pm. The counter£¨¹ñ̨£© would ¡¡ 32¡¡ at 2 pm. His home was 10 km away and I had a slight ¡¡33 of going somewhere with a stranger. Anyway, this was my last chance. We reached his house on my bike. He advised me to remain ¡¡ 34¡¡ , and gave me a pen and the form. When it was ¡¡ 35¡¡ , he told me to rush back and ¡¡¡¡36¡¡ carefully. I reached the office at 1:58 pm. There were two people in line, waiting for their ¡¡37¡¡ . Just then, the counter official announced that no more forms would be ¡¡ 38¡¡ after mine. I breathed a sigh of ¡¡ 39¡¡ .
¡¡¡¡¡¡ I passed the exam and later got a bachelor¡¯s degree. I also got the promotions. I ¡¡¡¡40¡¡ it all to the timely help from a true gentleman whose name I forgot to ask.

¡¡¡¡¡¡ You Are Going Places
One day I came home from school, changed my clothes and got ready for work. I work at a local restaurant in town as a cashier and waiter.
¡¡¡¡¡¡ I went to work feeling ¡¡21¡¡ . And to make matters worse, I was busy that evening. It' s the same thing over and over again. 22 with customers who complain about their food and where they are 23 is too big or too small. Little things like that tend to 24 a lot of us 25 but we manage to deal with it.
¡¡¡¡¡¡ Three elderly ladies walked in and sat by the windows. It happened to be the very 26 near where I keep the dirty 27 in the boxes. Trying to keep up with all the dirty tables, customers leaving and coming in and 28 running all over the house, it was crazy. 29 these elderly women were watching 30 I was working to make sure every table was clean and ready for the next customers.
¡¡¡¡¡¡ When they 31 their meals, I took their plates back to the kitchen. They talked to me for a while about school, how I was doing, what 32 I was in and what I planned to do in the future.
¡¡¡¡¡¡ 33 they were leaving, they walked past me and one of them said to me in a 34 and gentle voice, ¡°You are going places.¡± And that was it. They left the 35 and I had tears in my eyes, because they gave me 36 to believe in myself. They 37 my spirit from being down and gave me a 38 to keep on working hard.
¡¡¡¡¡¡ People used to tell me that I couldn¡¯t have a career in 39 until I had a degree. I'm now a co-anchor £¨ÁªºÏÖ÷³ÖÈË£©of a student-produced television 40 . And the best thing is: I'm only 17 years old and I am a senior in high school.
