西汉时候，有个农民的孩子，叫匡衡。他小时候很想读书，可是因为家里穷，没钱上学。后来，他跟一个亲戚学认字，才有了看书的能力。

匡衡买不起书，只好借书来读。那个时候，书是非常贵重的，有书的人不肯轻易借给别人。匡衡就在农忙的时节，给有钱的人家打短工，不要工钱，只求人家借书给他看。

过了几年，匡衡长大了，成了家里的主要劳动力。他一天到晚在地里干活，只有中午歇晌的时候，才有工夫看一点书，所以一卷书常常要十天半月才能够读完。匡衡很着急，心里想：白天种庄稼，没有时间看书，我可以多利用一些晚上的时间来看书。可是匡衡家里很穷，买不起点灯的油，怎么办呢？

⑸ 名人英语的故事

When in Rome the pope stopped to pray for the President’s recovery and immediately sent him a personal message with his prayers and hopes.

These were worrisome times. It had not been so long before, ring a Vatican meeting with an aide to the pope’s secretary of state, that William Casey left with a final word of caution.

The CIA station in Rome had passed along a curious, and perhaps important, piece of information. When Lech Walesa had visited the pope, his host had been a man from the Italian Labour Confederation. The CIA had been told by Italian counter-intelligence officials that the host was working for Bulgaria. Since Bulgarians were under the control of the Soviets, this could either mean that Solidarity’s plans were compromised or that Walesa was in danger.

On May 13, 1981, at 5 pm, the pontiff emerged for his weekly general audience in St, Peter’s Square. After entering the open “”,the pontiff was riding around the colonnade. His aide Stanislaw Dziwisz was next to him.

Suddenly Dziwisz heard a deafening noise, and pigeons all over the square took flight. Then the pope slumped against him.

“I knew the Holy Father was hit”, Dziwisz says “but there was no sign of blood or a wound on him . Then I asked him. ‘Where?’ he replied, ‘In my stomach.’”

The pope had been wounded in his stomach, right elbow and index finger of his left hand. He was transferred to an ambulance, which sped him to a hospital.

“Mary, my mother! Mary, my mother!” the Holy Father kept repeating. His eyes were closed, and he was in great pain, At the Gemelli Clinic the pope was rushed first to a tenth-floor room reserved for a papal emergency and then to an operating room. He’d lost a great deal of blood, and because his condition was critical, last rites were administered.

The operation lasted five hours and 20 minutes. Twenty two inches of John Paul Ⅱ’s intestine were removed. “Hope graally returned ring the operation.” Said Dziwisz. “It became clear that no vital organ had been hit and that he just might survive.”

Like the bullet that almost killed Ronald Reagan, this one had passed a few millimeters from the aorta. “If it had hit, death would have been instantaneous,” Dziwisz observed. “It did not touch any vital point. It was really miraculous.”

“One hand fired,” the pope said later, “and another hand guided the bullet.”

The triggerman was apprehended almost immediately. He was identified as Mehmet Ali Agca, a Turkish terrorist. Agca had publicly vowed to kill the pope ring the potiff’s 1979 visit to Turkey.

In recent years, ever mindful of a need for dialogue with the Jews, John Paul Ⅱmade the grand gesture of crossing the Tiber River to visit the main synagogue of Rome, something no pope had ever done before. As Roman Jews know, their community is older than the oldest Christian church. When Saints Peter and Paul came to Rome, the Torah was already being read and the Sabbath observed in the capital of the Roman Empire.

Onlookers recall that when he delivered his speech in the synagogue, John Paul Ⅱat times seemed close to breaking down. Once, as a boy, he’d gone to the synagogue in his village with his father to a choir sing “Ani Maamin” (I believe), which had been chanted by condemned Jews in the death camps on their way to the gas chambers. As the voice of the choir swelled, the pope bent forward, his head bowed and his hand covering his mouth.

Despite john paul Ⅱ’s declining health, the last years of his pontificate24 have seen a burst of activity. And though his hand is increasingly weary as he raises it to bless the faithful25, it points to a wider horizon.

当教皇在罗马时，他停下为总统的康复而祈祷并同时向总统表示了他本人的祝愿和希望。

那时正是令人提心吊胆的日子。就在不久前，在梵蒂冈一次与教皇的国务秘书的助手的会见中，威廉姆·凯希留下的最后一句话就是要小心。

驻罗马的中央情报局传来一个奇怪的，同时可能也是个重要的信息。当莱克·瓦文萨拜会教皇时，东道主是个来自意大利工党的人。中央情报局已被意大利反间谍官员告知其人为保加利亚工作。由于保加利亚人受到苏联的控制，这可能就意味着波兰团结工会的计划已被泄露或是瓦文萨本人身处险境。

1981年5月13日下午五时，主教出现在圣彼得广场进行每周的接见。进入敞蓬的“教皇之车”后，主教环柱廊而行。他的助手斯坦尼斯洛·简维茨坐在他旁边。

突然简维茨听到一声震耳欲聋的巨响，广场上的鸽子四散飞去。紧接着教皇靠着他瘫倒下去。

简维茨说：“我知道教皇被击中了，可表面上没有血迹或伤口。于是我问，‘哪儿受伤了？’他答道，‘肚子上。’”

教皇肚子上，右肘和左手食指都受了伤。他被抬上一辆救护车，迅速送往医院。

教皇不停地重复着：“玛丽亚，我的圣母！玛丽亚，我的圣母！”他的双目紧闭着，痛苦万分。在杰米里医院教皇先被火速送往十楼预留的教皇抢救室，而后送往手术室。他失血过多，情况非常危急，因此为他举行了最后的宗教仪式。

手术持续了5小时20分钟。约翰·保罗二世的肠子被切除了二十二英寸。“手术中渐渐有了希望，”简维兹说，“很明显致命的器官未被击中，他得救了。”

就像子弹险些杀害罗纳德·里根那样，这枚子弹在离主动脉几毫米的位置穿过。简维兹说：“如若动脉被击中，死亡可能就是瞬间的事，可子弹未伤到任何要害的地方。这真是个奇迹。”

教皇后来说：“那个人是一只手开火，另一只手扶着准星。”

这个杀手几乎就地被擒。他被认出叫穆罕默德·阿里·阿克查，是个土耳其恐怖主义者。1979年教皇访问土耳其时，阿克查曾公开发誓要将他杀掉。

近些年来，约翰·保罗二世一直关注着与犹太人对话的必要性，他做出了宏伟的壮举，跨过台伯河去访问罗马的主要的犹太教堂，这对教皇来说是前所未有的。 据罗马犹太人所知，他们的社区比最古老的基督教堂皇还要老。当圣彼德和圣保罗来到罗马时，人们已开始在诵读摩西经并且在罗马帝国的首都里过着安息日。

旁观者回忆说，当纪翰·保罗二世在犹太教堂发表演讲时，他时常情难自持。在他还是孩子时，一次他同父亲就曾去过他们村中的犹太教堂去合唱“Ani Maamin”（我想信），这首歌曾为被判罪的犹太人在从集中营到毒气室的路上所吟唱。当合唱的声音越来越响亮时，教皇鞠躬致意并以手掩面。

尽管约翰·保罗二世健康状况越来越糟， 可他在最后几年的教皇任期里仍进行了大量的活动。而且尽管当他向信徒挥手祝福时感觉越来越沉重，但那仍指向着更宽广的天地。

爱迪生（1847～1931）Edison，Thomas Alva

美国发明家。以创办工厂实验室、开辟使技术开发与科学研究紧密结合的途径而名垂史册 。1847 年2月11日生于俄亥俄州的迈兰的一个荷兰移民家庭。1931年10月18日于新泽西州西奥兰治逝世 。幼时只受过3个月正规教育 。12岁起做过报童、小贩、报务员等以自谋生计。因受M.法拉第的影响，一生从事电学实验研究和发明。1868年他发明了一台选票记录仪想推销给国会，但没有被采用。爱迪生的第一项发明没有找到市场使他更注意发明的实用性。1869年，爱迪生由波士顿移居纽约。他改进了金指示器电报公司的电报机，得到公司经理的赏识 ，受聘月薪300美元（ 这在当时是很高的月薪 ）。1870 年 ，移居新泽西州 ，开始他的高效发明时期 。1874年改进了打字机 。1876年 ，给A.G.贝尔发明的电话加装了炭粒话筒，提高了受话的声响。

1876年，创办了他著名的实验室。在这个实验室里，他 打破了以往科学家个人独自从事研究的传统，组织一批专门人才（包括N.特斯拉等人），由他出题目并分派任务，共同致力于一项发明 ， 从而开创了 现代科学研究 的正确途径 。1877年，发明了留声机，这使他名扬四海。1878年，开始白炽灯的研究，在十几个月中经过多次失败后，于1879年10月21日成功地点亮了白炽炭丝灯，稳定地点亮了两整天。1882年，在纽约珍珠街创办世界第二座公用火电厂，建立起纽约市区电灯照明系统，成为现代电力系统的雏形。电照明的实现，不仅大大改善了人们生产劳动的条件，也预示着日常生活电气化时代即将到来。1883年，爱迪生在试验真空灯泡时，意外地发现冷、热电极间有电流通过。这种现象后来称为爱迪生效应，成为电子管和电子工业的基础。1887年，移居西奥兰治，并于同年在该市创建规模更大、装备也更新的实验室，即著名的爱迪生实验室（后人称之为发明工厂）。在这里，根据G.伊斯曼的发明，制作了自己的照相机。1914年 ，用留声机和照相机制成了最早的有声电影系统。晚年，他的发明和革新包括蓄电池、水泥搅拌机、录音电话、双工式和多工式电报系统、铁路用制动器等。第一次世界大战期间，他任海军技术顾问委员会主席，指导鱼雷和反潜设备研究，发明了几十种武器。为此，美国政府于1920年授予他卓越服 务奖章 ， 法国政府授 予他军团荣誉勋位 。1928年，美国国会授予他荣誉奖章。终其一生，爱迪生和他的实验室共获1093项发明专利权。爱迪生一生发明众多，但他毕竟缺乏系统的科学知识 ，因而对现代技术的发展不能作出正确判断。19世纪末，交流输电系统已经出现，但他仍坚持直流输电，并在与G.威斯汀豪斯发生的激烈竞争中丧失了承建尼亚加拉水电站的合同 ；他的实验室盲目试制磁力选矿设备，耗尽了发明电灯所得的资金，最后不得不放弃。但是，爱迪生在电力开发、电器制造推广电能应用等方面所作的贡献，使他成为人类历史上最伟大的发明家之一。

And he also knew that all these stars and our own bodies and everything else are made up of atoms so tiny they can’t be seen even with the best microscope③.
He thought there must be some rules to explain why everything in the universe, big and little, acts as it does. Why don’t the stars moving around in the sky bump ④ into each other? What makes the tiny atoms stick together to form all the different things there?
